About iphone 13 series
The iP68 rated iPhone 13 has 4 variants ~ the iPhone 13,iPhone 13 mini, iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro max. Likewise, 13’s brighter display, powerful cameras, longer battery life are the cherry on top.
And a little consciousness over environment with no outer plastic wrap and recycled materials makes it better. In the same way we get the phone with no charger but only with charging port. The phones are seemingly heavier probably due to the batteries. Due to the improved 120 Hz refresh rate on iPhone 12 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro max, the display feels very smooth. Not only-but also the notch is compressed now which makes it slightly smaller. As mentioned the iPhone 13’s battery life is way better.
iPhone 13 & iPhone 13 Mini
The iPhone 13 mini’s 5.4 inch OLED screen is crisp, bright and now with a smaller Face ID notch. The alluminium and glass body is slim, to hold. It fits in pockets easily and works great for messaging and calls. The 13 mini has the same A15 Bionic chip as its larger variants and has the same starting 128GB storage, which is large enough.
Talking about iPhone 13 mini, it is the successor to its previous year iPhone 12 mini whereas iPhone 13 is the replacement for the previous year iPhone 12.
Similarities
In fact both of the new models feature Super Retina XDR displays that are 28% brighter. The iPhone 13 mini has a resolution of 2340X1080 with 476 pixels per inch. In addition to the new iPhone 13 mini and iPhone 13 features the latest A15 Bionic Chip (5 nm chip).
Both of the devices feature a 6 GB of RAM alongside with an option of 128/256/512 GB of internal storage too.
Camera
Furthermore coming to the camera portion, iPhone 13 mini and iPhone 13 features a new diagonal dual-lens rear camera setup. It has a 12 megapixel Wide and Ultra-Wide camera. Again the 12 megapixel wide camera features f/1.6 aperture lens that lets in 47% more light with sensor shift stabilization. Also, it has a 120 degree field of view. Also Apple has announced an all-new feature called Cinematic mode for recording videos with shallow depth of view with a cinematic look.
Cons
However, the battery doesn’t last quite as long as the bigger phones, however, making it about 38 hours between charges with the screen on for just over four hours during that time.

iPhone 13 Pro
The Pro variants are the ones with notable changes.
As well as the telephoto lens, macro mode, and Pro-motion display are all nice to have. Equally important a truly excellent upgrade. Again one of the biggest improvements of the 12 Pro last year was the addition of a 2x telephoto lens. Also the iPhone 13 Pro has upped that to 3x, and to my mind it’s a welcome addition.
Moreover the new models feature a Super Retina XDR display with ProMotion( ProMotion is Apple’s flagship feature for the Pro models that flaunts a 120Hz display panel and can adjusts between 10Hz and 120Hz). For instance this is definitely one of the highlights of the smartphone. Besides, 13 Pro flaunts a 6.1‑inch (diagonal) all‑screen OLED display. It is definitely one of the highlights of the smartphone. Meanwhile the common features that both of these models share are HDR display, True Tone, Wide color.
Cons
However, Pro does have some cons. Further, the telephoto lens, macro mode, and pro-motion display are all nice to have, but none of them are strictly necessary. And yes those are the only things that are negative besides the price itself. In general, this is a great phone to have.
