iPhone 13 rumors have been swirling for months now and they should start to pickup as we push deeper into 2021.
The company’s 2021 models will reportedly have a refreshed Face ID system. There’s also a chance the iPhone drops the Lightning dock and goes completely wireless.
Another rumor, from hit-or-miss publication Digitimes, suggests that Apple’s 2021 iPhone models could feature larger batteries thanks to the technology found in the company’s AirPods Pro headphones.
Display analyst Ross Young has also shared information about the iPhone 13 series. He believes Apple will release four models that look similar to the iPhone 12 series. Young expects the company to launch a 6.7-inch iPhone 13 Pro Max, a 6.1-inch iPhone 13 Pro, a 6.1-inch iPhone 13, and a 5.4-inch iPhone 13 mini later on this year.
Respected TF International Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo also believes Apple will release four new iPhone 13 models in 2021.

While we will certainly see Apple tack on upgrades, a report from Bloomberg suggests they will be modest. The publication states that Apple engineers consider the 2021 iPhones an “S” version of the device. The company typically uses this moniker when it deploys minor changes.
TrendForce calls the 2021 iPhones “iPhone 12s” so it’s possible these devices will be branded as iPhone 12s, iPhone 12s mini, iPhone 12s Max, and iPhone 12s Max Pro.
Leaker Max Weinbach on YouTube channel EverythingApplePro says the iPhone 13 will come with stronger MagSafe magnets and a “refined matte back” among other things.
We’ve also heard Apple might be cooking up a pink iPhone 13 though the information comes from a source we aren’t familiar with.
As for the iPhone 13 release date, Kuo believes Apple will utilize a regular schedule which means we should see the iPhone 13 series launch in September without any delays.
The coronavirus pandemic forced Apple to release the iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 Pro in October and the iPhone 12 mini and iPhone 12 Pro Max in November.
Wedbush analyst Dan Ives agrees. Ives believes the “iPhone 13 launch is slated for the third week in September as of now but could push out into early October based on continued product model tweaks.”
In a new note, Ives says he still thinks Apple will unveil the iPhone 13 series during the third week of September. This means we might see Apple’s event take place on September 14th since the company usually hosts its events on Tuesday.
Trendforce also thinks Apple will launch the new iPhones on schedule in September. As do Bloomberg’s Debby Wu and Mark Gurman.
They claim all of Apple’s iPhone 13 models are “expected to be announced in September, earlier than last year’s October introduction partly thanks to the supply chain recovering.”
Apple’s registered multiple iPhone 13 models in Eurasia and started pulling in component orders which means the new phones are on track for their anticipated fall release.
We’re months away from the 2021 iPhone announcements which means the phones are still in development which means Apple’s plans can, and probably will, change. That said, there are already some great reasons to think about waiting for the iPhone 13 series.
