On the evening of September 13, Beijing time, it was reported that Apple is about to release a new generation of smartphone iPhone 13. This may not be its name, and we don’t know what it looks like, but it is certain that something important is coming soon.
These important things may include a new mobile phone, a new generation of Apple Watch smart watches, and a new AirPods wireless headset, and even a VR (virtual reality) related products.
At 1:00 AM on September 15, Beijing time, we will get the exact answer. At that time, Apple will hold an online event to release this new phone. Although Apple did not make it clear that this event was held for the iPhone; but based on historical records, this is almost certain.
Apart from that, everything else is not very clear. But based on various reports and rumors, we have a general idea of what might happen in this event.
The first is the name issue: what is its exact name? Although we have always referred to it as “iPhone 13”, there is no guarantee that this will be its final name.
First of all, the number “13” is unlucky for many people. This may cause Apple to abandon it, even if only to retain potential customers who are slightly superstitious.
Secondly, “13” is also a very large number (for product naming), and to a large extent, Apple also tends to give up using this number when its product naming number reaches a high level, and simply use them. Year or other name.
This has led some people to suggest that Apple may completely abolish the numbering system this year and call it the “new iPhone”. In recent years, this proposal has been put forward for previous generations of iPhone.
In addition, since the design changes of this year’s iPhone may be small, Apple can also name this phone “iPhone 12s” as in the past.
It is expected that the new generation of iPhone will be divided into four versions, iPhone 13 (tentatively called) mini, iPhone 13, iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max.
In addition, the new generation of iPhone should not have changed much in design, but there will definitely be improvements in the screen, camera and processor.
Along with the new generation of iPhone, Apple may also release a new generation of Apple Watch smart watches and AirPods wireless headphones. As for the final “One more thing” part, maybe a VR-related product will be released.
