The iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max are smartphones designed and marketed by Apple Inc. They are the flagship smartphones in the fifteenth generation of the iPhone, succeeding the iPhone 12 Pro and iPhone 12 Pro Max. The devices were unveiled alongside the iPhone 13 and iPhone 13 Mini at an Apple Special Event at Apple Park in Cupertino, California on September 14, 2021, and became available ten days later, on September 24.[14][15]

Major upgrades over its predecessor include improved battery life, improved cameras and computational photography, rack focus for video in a new "Cinematic Mode" at 1080p 30 fps, Apple ProRes video recording, a new A15 Bionic system on a chip, and a variable 10-120 Hz display, marketed as ProMotion.[15]

History[]

The iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max[16] were officially announced alongside the 9th generation iPad, 6th generation iPad Mini, Apple Watch Series 7, iPhone 13 and iPhone 13 Mini by a virtual press event filmed and recorded at Apple Park in Cupertino, California on September 14, 2021. Pre-orders began on September 17 at 5:00 AM PST. Pricing starts at US$999 for the iPhone 13 Pro and US$1099 for the iPhone 13 Pro Max, same as their respective previous generations.[17]

Design[]

The iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max's design is mostly unchanged from its predecessor. However, the rear camera module now covers a larger area due to the larger lenses. The Face ID and camera module on the front display, or "notch", is now 20% smaller than previous generations.[18]

The iPhone 13 Pro and 13 Pro Max are available in five colors: Silver, Graphite, Gold, and Sierra Blue, and Alpine Green. Sierra Blue is a new color replacing Pacific Blue.[10][19]

On March 8, 2022, at Apple's Special Event “Peek Performance”, Apple revealed a new Alpine Green color option which will become available on March 18.[20][21]

Specifications[]

Hardware[]

The iPhone 13 Pro and Pro Max uses an Apple-designed A15 Bionic processor featuring a 16-core neural engine, 6-core CPU (with 2 performance cores and 4 efficiency cores), and 5-core GPU.[22] The A15 Bionic also contains a next-generation image processor.[citation needed]

More 5G bands are available to support more carriers, especially outside the US.[citation needed]

Display[]

The iPhone 13 Pro features a 6.1-inch 1170 x 2532 pixel display and the larger iPhone 13 Pro Max features a 6.7-inch 1284 x 2778 pixel display. Both models have the Super Retina XDR OLED display with improved typical brightness up-to 1000 nits, and max brightness up-to 1200 nits, and for the first time in an iPhone, a variable 10-120 Hz ProMotion display, which can also go as low as 10 Hz to preserve battery.[15]

Batteries[]

Apple claims up to 1.5 more hours of battery life on the iPhone 13 Pro than its predecessor, and 2.5 more hours on the 13 Pro Max. Rated capacities are 11.97 Wh (3,095 mAh) on the 13 Pro, while the 13 Pro Max is rated at 16.75 Wh (4,352 mAh).[23][24] Both models can charge with MagSafe up to 15 W, Qi wireless charging up to 7.5 W, and Lightning up to 20-27 W for the (Pro Max), 20-23 W For the (Pro).[25]

Cameras[]

The iPhone 13 Pro features four cameras: one front-facing camera and three back-facing cameras, including a telephoto, wide, and ultra-wide camera. The back-facing cameras all contain larger sensors than the iPhone 12 Pro, allowing for more light-gathering. The wide and ultra-wide also have larger apertures to capture more light and increase low-light performance. The ultra-wide camera also has autofocus for the first time. The 77 mm telephoto has a smaller aperture than the 12 Pro's, but has the advantage of being able to use Night Mode for the first time. The larger telephoto also increases the digital zoom capability to 15x.[15]

The cameras use Apple's latest computational photography engine, called Smart HDR 4. Smart HDR 4 processes recognized faces in photos separately using local adjustments. Users can also choose from a range of photographic styles during capture, including rich contrast, vibrant, warm, and cool. Apple clarifies this is different than a filter, because it works intelligently with the image processing algorithm during capture to apply local adjustments to an image.[26]

The camera app contains a new mode called Cinematic Mode, which allows users to rack focus between subjects and create shallow depth of field using software algorithms. It is supported on the wide, telephoto and front-facing cameras in 1080p at 30 fps. Apple also added in iOS 15.1 the ability to record in Apple ProRes 4K at 30 fps for models with at least 256 GB of storage, however base models with 128 GB of storage will be limited to ProRes recording at 1080p 30 fps.[27]

The camera features a macro mode that can focus as close as 2 centimeters from a subject. It utilizes the autofocus from the ultra-wide camera, and is automatically enabled when close enough to a subject.[28]

Software[]

iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max are preinstalled with iOS 15 at launch.

Reception[]

iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max were praised by reviewers and journalists for its marked improvement in battery life, the improved camera, which has been repeatedly called the best camera in a smartphone, and the addition of ProMotion to the iPhone.[29][30][31]
