iPhone 13 new leaks: What will be new in 2021?

September is just a month away, and rumour machine about new 2021 iPhone 13 is at its peak. Speculations say, this year iPhone will be an ‘S’ version iteration. So, iPhone 13 or 12S might not bring any major changes to the design.
We are not sure about the name of the new iPhone but Apple might skip ‘13’ because of the superstitious reasons.

Rumoured iPhone 13 new features

iPhone 13 leaks
  • Four iPhone 13 models like previous year
  • Smaller notch but still a bigger notch than other new smartphones
  • Faster A15 Bionic chip
  • Always on display
  • Improved ultrawide lens

So no Touch Id in the display for one more year. This is one of the most-waited feature in iPhones as other companies (OnePlus, Samsung etc) have already been doing that for more than an year. Some rumours have even claimed, one iPhone to be completely portless this year, but that seems quite unlikely.

iPhone 13 launch event

Though last year, Apple event was pushed to October due to the corona Pandemic. This year, we’re expecting a normal launch schedule in September.

iPhone 13 price

As far as the price of the new iPhone 13 is concerned, it’s expected to follow the same pattern as the last year — $699, $799, $999 and $1,099, respectively. Apple has been known to keep its pricing for ‘S’ iteration of iPhones relatively close to the one that preceded it. So, it’s unlikely to see any major change in the pricing pattern.

iPhone 13 leaked designs


These iPhone 13 leaks which comes for the companies that make cases for new iPhones, to put their cases on sale as soon as new iPhone launches, has confirmed some new changes which we might see in 2021 iPhones.

  • First of all, camera bump seems bigger
  • More spaces between lenses

Smaller ones like iPhone 13 mini and 13 might get some camera upgrades and some bump specs but almost the same phone.

Some more leaks

Rumours point to four color options for the iPhone 13 Pro. These are black, silver, rose gold and sunset gold. We’ve also heard that that the regular iPhone 13 could come in pink, but that’s just based on a render.
iPhone Pro Max might boast 120Hz display and better rear cameras. iPhone 13 is assumed to offer faster 25W charging this year.

iOS 15

As we all know, Apple with new iPhones also bring new iOS for the devices. We got a glimpse of the new iOS 15 at June’s Worldwide Developer Conference. 
The new iOS 15 is expected to bring new features for FaceTime calls, tools to reduce distractions, a new notifications experience, added privacy features, complete redesigns for Safari, Weather, and Maps, and more.
Notifications have been redesigned in iOS 15, with contact photos for people and bigger icons for apps. A notification summary collects notifications together to reduce distraction and deliver them at a suitable time. iOS 15 is compatible with the iPhone 6s and later, which means it runs on all devices that are able to run iOS 14, and will be released this fall.
That’s about all the rumours and leaks about new iPhone 13.
