Apple iPhone 13 review: the iPhone for the masses

In our iPhone 13 review, we find it's the phone that Apple expects most people will buy, and for good reason. Here's everything you need to know.

Fast and responsive performance Excellent camera and video capabilities Long-lasting battery life Supports most premium features

Still no USB-C No higher refresh rate or telephoto lens

“The iPhone 13 continues to be Apple's mainstay model, offering most of the value of the Pro at a lower price.”

Apple iPhone 13 review

One small reduction of the notch, one giant leap for the iPhone! That's the best description for the most minor iPhone upgrade yet - the Apple iPhone 13....

Outstanding design - sturdy and water-proofed.

Minor upgrade over iPhone 12.

But there are two undeniable facts - no iPhone is a bad phone, on the contrary - every iPhone is designed to excel at a wide variety of tasks, and it does. And secondly, no review will make a decided Apple user to reconsider their iPhone...

Apple iPhone 13 Review

Long battery life ; Fast, smooth performance ; Camera makes it easy for anyone to take good photos

Not much of an upgrade over the iPhone 12

Apple's iPhone 13 delivers the best blend of performance, camera quality, and battery life at the right price for most people.

iPhone 13 review: yep, bigger batteries are better

A lesson Apple keeps having to learn.

Excellent cameras ; Much improved battery ; All of last year’s advances ; Increased base storage

Selfie camera sensor unchanged ; Standard refresh rate on display ; iPhone 12 cases won’t fit

The new iPhone 13 and 13 Mini have improvements where it counts: bigger batteries and better cameras. They aren’t as full of features as the iPhone 13 Pro or Pro Max, but it’s hard to find a better combination of what matters most in a new phone.

iPhone 13 review: Night Mode improved, but here's what hasn't

The question isn't, “Should I upgrade?”, but “Who are the upgrades for?”

Excellent battery life ; Enhanced Night Mode performance ; Lightning-fast A15 bionic chip with AI boost ; More storage for base models ; Brighter display

“Smaller” notch is actually taller ; Still waiting for Touch ID and fast charging

iPhone 13 Review – An unexpected gap

The iPhone 13 and iPhone 13 mini are Apple's 2021 smartphones for the mainstream, progressive upgrades that avoid huge changes in favor of welcome refinement. Unlike last year, though, this y…

Same price but double the base storage ; Apple A15 Bionic is fast and iOS 15 is smooth ; Dependable cameras ; Cinematic mode is fun to play with ; Battery life is considerably improved

Bulk of Apple's camera upgrades exclusive to the Pro ; Touch ID's absence burns as bright as ever

iPhone 13 vs iPhone 12: small improvements go a long way

What new features does the iPhone 13 offer vs iPhone 12? And what are the differences between the two?...

Much improved battery life ; Dynamic and jolly photos in more challenging conditions ; Easy to view outdoors display with perfect calibration ; Snazzy Cinematic video mode ; Double the predecessor storage for the same price ; OLED screen, finally! ;...

Slow display refresh rate for the price point ; Wired and wireless charging take comparatively long ; Cinematic video mode is finicky without good lighting ; Taller notch eats into some video formats ; 64 GB of storage is fine, but feels a bit stingy...

iPhone 13 review

Does the iPhone 13 Face ID work fine in the new notch? How is the Cinematic video? Is the battery life longer indeed? Yes, decent, and yes.
