It sounds like a delusion, but now we not only have rumors of the iPhone of 2021 but also videos. Days ago the latest models of this year were launched, the iPhone 12 mini and 12 Pro Max, so starting to talk about next year’s model sounds even more … strange? Be that as it may, we do not believe that what is seen at the moment can be in a large percentage the next flagship of the Californian brand, but at least it serves to whet the most anxious people who want to know a whole year before.
Video based on early rumors
The analyst Jon Prosser got it right this year in practically everything about the iPhone 12 and it seems that his sources continue to leak information after this, since in recent days he published the first report on the iPhone 13. In them he highlighted two points: the goodbye of the notch and the arrival of the 120 Hz refresh rate . These could have been two novelties this year, however Apple did not opt for the first due to the efficiency of Face ID, which still needs that size of sensors to provide the same security. The issue of the ProMotion refresh rate stems from a lack of optimization with the battery, to the point that current iPhones could have it incorporated and have been disabled by software.
Following these first rumors of Prosser, the YouTube channel TT Technology has published this curious video in which the first renderings of these hypothetical iPhone 13 appear. It should be noted that much of the information that appears in the video has been adapted by the creator to make the video more complete, as there are many aspects of these phones that have not yet been released even in a preliminary way.
Why rumors can be reliable at this point
With September as the presumed presentation date of the iPhone 13, it is clear that talking about them at this point is really complicated. People always insist on taking unofficial information with a grain of salt, and in this case even more so. It is clear that Apple does not develop a single product, but has several branches of work open and it is very likely that the iPhone 13 began to draw months ago. However, a creation and development process can change a lot, so what at this point may be something that is really being considered in Apple Park ends up being discarded months later. The aforementioned 120 Hz of the iPhone 12 was a reality in the company until they had to eliminate it.
Therefore, not all rumors are reliable , but not all are false. It must be remembered that in recent years, especially the latter, it has been very positive at the level of success of the main gurus, despite small errors or inaccurate data. Without going any further, the iPhone 11 presented in September 2019 already had its design leaked in January 2019. That is one more example that rumors are always wrong because they are not further from the launch. In any case, we insist on giving a low reliability to the concept we see on video, since it is still just that, a simple concept.
