A NEW year, a new iPhone – with brand new colour options to enjoy.
The iPhone 13 was unveiled at a special Apple event on September 14.
It boasts a powerful A15 chip and improvements to the camera, and comes in four variants: iPhone 13 Mini, iPhone 13, iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max.
The iPhone 13 is available to pre-order from Friday, September 17.
The Apple Watch 7 is also upping the ante on the fitness front this time around, by detecting when you're riding a bike and prompting you to start your workout.
Meanwhile, the new iPad 2021 houses the new A13 bionic chip, making it 20% faster in "every aspect".

APPLE WATCH 7 GETS STUNNING REDESIGN
The Apple Watch 7 is upping the ante on the fitness front this time around, by detecting when you’re riding a bike and prompting you to start your workout.
There’s also improved support for e-bikes, and fall detection.
The big news is the redesign, which sees a larger screen that’s around 20% larger than last year.
The bezel has been shrunk by 40%, coming in at a barely-there 1.7mm. The watch face design sports a softer look, with rounder edges.
The display has also had an upgrade and is easier to use thanks to its increased size, and optimised apps.

There are four colour options available for the new iPhone – including a new blue option.
The notch is smaller thanks to a reduction in the Face ID module, giving you more screen to enjoy.
There’s IP68 water resistance, a new display, and an improved camera system.
It’s also powered by Apple’s powerful new A15 Bionic chip – as seen in the standard iPhone 13.
PRO GO!
The iPhone 13 Pro has a 6.1 inch screen, rising to 6.7 inch for the Pro Max.
It starts at $999, or $1,099 for the Pro Max.
This year, there’s a new 1TB storage option – in addition to 128GB, 256GB and 512GB options.

Apple is talking up huge improvements in low-light photography.
That means “you’ll get beautiful photos in any situation”, according to Apple.
There’s also better astrophotography when shooting the night sky with a tripod, as rumoured.
Apple has also added a new Macro Photography mode, letting you magnify subjects with a minimum distance of 2cm.
Example photos looked great.
IT PAYS TO BE IN THE UK
APPLE’S top-end iPhone model has had a price cut for TWO years in a row in Britain.
Each year Apple has shaved £50 off the price of the high-end Pro model – including for this year’s iPhone 13 Pro.
Here’s how iPhone Pro pricing has changed over the past two years in the UK:
- iPhone 13 Pro – £949
- iPhone 12 Pro – £999
- iPhone 11 Pro – £1,049
And here’s how iPhone Pro Max UK prices have fallen:
- iPhone 13 Pro Max – £1,049
- iPhone 12 Pro Max – £1,099
- iPhone 11 Pro Max – £1,149
I-SEE!
Face ID now fits into a 20% smaller space – slightly reducing the notch.
There’s a bigger battery (thanks to some internal re-engineering).
Apple has also created a smaller version of the iPhone 13 called the iPhone 13 Mini.
This is a similar format to last year’s iPhone 12.
Peak brightness on the iPhone 13’s screen is 1,200 nits – making outdoor use easy, even on sunny days.
Apple says the display has a high contrast ratio, so you can see true blacks.

WHAT TO EXPECT FROM BLACK FRIDAY iPHONE DEALS?
In a nutshell: it’s the iPhone 12 that will likely appear the most among all the deals that we’ll see during Black Friday 2021.
With the imminent release of the iPhone 13, the iPhone 12 will no long have flagship status, and so retailers will lower prices across their contracts.
Don’t be put off by the fact it’s no longer top-of-the-line: we’re hearing whispers that the 13 isn’t a major advance on its predecessor, and as you can read in our Tech Editor Sean Keach’s iPhone 12 review, this is a superb handset that offered users a huge range of new capabilities.
It’ll be Fonehouse, Affordable Mobiles, Mobiles.co.uk and Carphone Warehouse that are likely to lead with the best deals. But like we say, we recommend you stay abreast of what they’re offering at least a week ahead of Black Friday.

APPLE WATCH 7 GETS STUNNING REDESIGN (CONTINUED…)
The Apple Watch 7 starts at $399 and is available later this autumn.
“At first glance the latest Apple Watch is another iterative update, but the larger screen allowing bigger virtual buttons and a full qwerty keyboard should certainly improve usability,” Ben Wood at CSS Insight told The Sun.
“I’d expected to see a bump in battery life on the Apple Watch, as owners continue to clamour for smartwatches to last longer,” he added.
“But Apple has decided not to deviate from its 18-hour battery life. The faster charging will be welcomed, but for those wanting to track their sleep it would be far easier to offer a battery that lasts a couple of days.”

APPLE UNVEILS IPHONE 13 RANGE ALONGSIDE NEW IPADS AND APPLE WATCH
Apple has unveiled the iPhone 13 range, which will come with bigger batteries and better cameras, and boss Tim Cook hailed them as the “best iPhones we have ever created”.
After a major redesign of the popular smartphone last year, Apple has instead made a series of incremental changes across the four versions of the handset, most notably improving battery life by at least 1.5 hours on each of the devices.
The technology giant said it had also revamped all the cameras across the range, with a new cinematic mode allowing users to film higher-quality, cinema-like videos, while the infamous camera notch on the front of the phone has been made smaller.

GET THAT JUICE: iPHONE 13 PRO MAX HAS LONGEST EVER BATTERY LIFE
The iPhone 13 Pro Max also has the longest battery life ever in an iPhone.
Compared to the iPhone 12 Pro Max, iPhone 13 Pro Max users should have 2.5 hours longer battery life throughout the day.
Users of the iPhone 13 Pro should get 1.5 hours more battery life than iPhone 12 Pro users.
FILM FIRST
Apple says the iPhone 13 Pro supports Dolby Vision HDR video recording.
It shows off the focus-changing Rack Focus feature in Cinematic Mode we saw on the iPhone 13.
Example footage looks great – it’s so good, it’s actually hard to believe it’s shot on iPhone.
You can even film in Macro mode, which is cool.
NEW iPHONE FEATURES AN ADVANCED DUAL CAMERA SYSTEM
The iPhone 13 has Apple’s most advanced dual camera system.
Apple has worked on its night-mode capabilities and says you can take stunning and clear photos in low light situations.
The tech giant also demonstrated the iPhone 13’s video capabilities and its new cinematic mode with focus transitions that happen automatically.
Apple also stressed that the iPhone 13 has 5G capabilities and said it can provide “the best 5G experience”.
SPEED BOOST
The new iPhone 13 is powered by Apple’s brand new A15 processor.
It’s a custom built chip with a 6-core CPU (four of which are high-efficiency cores).
And the processor is built on a 5nm process, which means more transistors can be squeezed onto the chip.
In fact, Apple says it’s got 15billion transistors – they’re the tiny electronic switches that allows computing to happen.
More transistors on a chip generally means more computing potential.
So expect the iPhone 13 to be wildly fast. Even speedier than the very nippy iPhone 12!
APPLE JUICE
You’ll get 1.5 hours more usage from the iPhone 13 versus the iPhone 12.
Apple says this battery life boost is partly thanks to the new A15 chip.
That’s great news! Who doesn’t like better battery life?
EXPLAINED: WILL THERE BY BLACK FRIDAY DEALS ON THE iPHONE 13?
We doubt it. While the iPhone 13, 13 Pro, 13 Pro Max and 13 Mini will have hit shelves by that point, we’re not expecting any contracts that you might class as deals per se.
Similarly, it’s all-but-impossible that Apple will reduce prices on a series of handsets that have only been on sale for a couple of months.

APPLE QUIETLY SCRAPS THREE BELOVED IPHONE MODELS AFTER LAST NIGHT’S IPHONE 13 EVENT
Unsurprisingly, last year’s iPhone 12 Pro and 12 Pro Max met the chopping block.
They’re now totally gone from the Apple website – unless you’re willing to buy a refurbished model.
However, the iPhone 12 Mini and iPhone 12 are both still available to buy, albeit with discounts.
That’s not all: Apple has also killed off an older smartphone.
The iPhone XR – launched in 2018 as a “cheaper” model – is no longer available.
IT’S ALL ABOUT THE 5G
The iPhone 13 supports ultra-fast 5G mobile speeds – just like iPhone 12.
But the new model works on more bands, to get better support and speeds around the world.
WILL THE IPHONE 12 PRO MAX BE ON SALE ON BLACK FRIDAY?
Our guess? Yes.
This ruling handset is soon to be knocked off the throne by its equivalent in the iPhone 13 range, and prices are likely to quickly fall.
Currently costing a hefty £1,050 on Amazon, this won’t become a cheap handset… but with any luck, a little bit cheaper.
