Apple traditionally holds an iPhone launch conference in mid-September. These phones will be available for pre-order on the first Friday after the conference. A week later, these devices were shipped to online buyers and launched in stores. Last year, the COVID-19 epidemic forced Apple to postpone its product launch, and the measures taken by governments to reduce the spread of COVID-19 affected the iPhone 12 production schedule. Apple postponed the release of the iPhone 12 for one month and confirmed this decision in its July 2020 earnings report.
Now Bloomberg’s Mark Gulman understands that Apple plans to produce as many as 90 million iPhone 13 smartphones this year. This is a substantial increase over last year. According to reports, Apple usually orders 75 million units for the initial sale of the new iPhone. The production volume of the iPhone 13 now may cover sales volume by the end of this year. The mass production of Apple’s iPhone 13 indicates that the conference should be held in mid-September.
Bloomberg said that at least one iPhone 13 will use an LTPO display that can support a dynamic refresh rate of up to 120Hz. Apple first used this technology on Apple Watch to realize the always-on function. The LTPO display will also use IGZO (Indium Gallium Zinc Oxide) technology to improve efficiency and response speed. The iPhone 13 will have a smaller bang, and Apple’s goal is to eventually remove it completely. According to reports, the notch may also shrink next year. The iPhone 13 display will not be equipped with an in-screen fingerprint sensor, but it is said that Apple has tested the in-screen fingerprint sensor.
The iPhone 13 camera upgrade will include advanced video recording capabilities and improved optical zoom. Other iPhone 13 upgrades include next-generation processors. According to reports, the A14 Bionic successor will have six cores. A report earlier this year stated that the iPhone 13 launch event may take place in the third week of September, and Apple may hold a launch conference on September 14. But according to the past release time, the release date of the iPhone 13 will be September 24.
In addition to the performance of the iPhone 13, what everyone cares about most is the new color scheme of the iPhone 13. The latest news about the new iPhone 13 comes from the Twitter account Apple Tomorrow, which has been following Apple news. They have released the new color renderings of the iPhone 13 Pro Max, and each color looks very advanced.
Apple Tomorrow’s new machine renderings include 4 colors of sunset gold, rose gold, matte black, and pearl white. If the news is true, sunset gold will be Apple’s first iPhone color. The rose gold, matte black, and white colors are colors that have appeared in past models. Judging from the rendering, the color of sunset gold is darker than rose gold, with a faint orange hue, while the color of rose gold is lighter and looks lighter than the iPhone 6s rose gold. The news about matte black has been revealed by many media before. It seems that the probability of matte black coming true is quite high.
In addition, there was news earlier that the wireless charging coil of the iPhone 13 series is larger than that of previous iPhones, which will mean that the wireless charging power of the iPhone 13 will be increased again, and it may exceed 20W, and the charging speed will be faster. At the same time, the larger coil seems to mean that Apple may open up the wireless reverse charging function so that your iPhone 13 can also act as a power bank to charge third-party devices.
