Max Weinbach and Jon Prosser, probably the most relevant voices in terms of Apple‘s ecosystem, have just revealed great news for the iPhone that will be presented this year, probably in mid-September. Its design features are detailed as well as its great novelties compared to what is seen in the current iPhone 12.
Weinbach states in a video that we left just below these lines that the 2021 iPhone Pro models will have a slightly more textured soft matte back than the current one in order to make it more grippy and more comfortable to hold than current models. Similarly, the different iPhones 12 could also sport an always-on LTPO screen that will be equipped with a 120Hz refresh rate, similar to the ProMotion screen on the iPad Pro.
The Always On of the iPhone 13
These high refresh rate displays provide users with smooth scrolling and animations that Android users have been able to enjoy for a couple of years now. In Apple’s case, the Apple Watch Series 6 already uses such a display to provide users with an always-on display. Of course, “the Always On screen of the new iPhone will have a minimal customization. The current design basically looks like a dimmed lock screen where the clock and battery charge are always visible. Notifications seem to be shown through a bar and icons and, when received, they will appear normally, except that the screen will not be fully illuminated. Instead, it will appear slightly dimmed and temporarily, ” according to the lekaster.
Few changes to phone design
The design of the iPhone 13 is not going to be too much new and Weinbach says that it will look exactly the same as the iPhone 12 line, with a minimum increase of 0.26 mm in the thickness of the next line to couple stronger magnets with the ones. that you can make use of MagSafe accessories.
The changes are going to be so small that the leak even speaks that, instead of iPhone 13, Apple’s new phones for this year could be called iPhone 12s.
Astrophotography mode
It seems that the astronomical photography function of the Google Pixel has been very popular in Cupertino. So much so that Apple plans to copy the astrophotography function of Google equipment for the iPhone 13 and thus take high-quality photos of the night sky, including the stars and the moon thanks to working with longer exposure times and internal processing work .
Other rumors say that the company is adding the possibility of using portrait mode also in video recording in which the depth of field can be changed after saving the clip. This requires heavy duty processing power, which is where the 5nm A15 Bionic comes in that will star inside new devices.
Among the rest of the features of the iPhone 13 that Apple will be considering appears something that has been rumored since the arrival of the first iPhone X with Face ID; the return of Touch ID, possibly through an on-screen implementation. Apple has built prototypes of the iPhone with this feature and chances are high that the iPhone 13 Pro models will have this option at least.
