After the launch of the iPhone 12, many missed some of the technologies that sounded like for this year’s models, but that ultimately were not a reality. We know that Apple plays at a different pace than what happens on Android and the competition between its different manufacturers. However, the iPhone 13 does point to important changes and developments, even those related to screen technology.
As we say, the pace on Android is more frenetic. Different manufacturers compete in an increasingly tight market, with battles in the high-end and entry-level, where it is imperative to offer the best quality / price ratio. This is good for the end user, in that prices are tightening and technology is advancing rapidly to try to outperform the rival.
An expected technology
However, in Cupertino they play in another league, where they see the advances of Android smartphones pass without flinching, and knowing that the iPhone will implement these advances when they believe they are really useful for the user. For some time now, the screens of Android mobiles offer high refresh rates, which offer a much more fluid experience in browsing or the most demanding games on the market.
The rumor mill prior to the launch of the iPhone 12, stated that these would arrive with an advanced rate, leaving aside 60 Hz and offering 90 Hz or 120 Hz , thus equating to Android terminals. However, nothing is further from the truth, the iPhone 12 did not offer anything new in this regard.
Now, a report from the Korean media ETNews, states that this great improvement will finally be present in the iPhone 13, but not in the same way in all models. This means that the advanced refresh rates will be reserved for the more expensive models, while the standard model and the “mini” variant will continue with their 60 Hz refresh rate. The details of all the models would be as follows :
- iPhone 13 mini: 5.4-inch 60Hz LTPS display
- iPhone 13 : 6.1-inch LTPS 60Hz display
- iPhone 13 Pro : 6.1-inch 120Hz LTPO display
- iPhone 13 Pro Max : 6.7-inch 120Hz LTPO display
This source usually offers accurate information on many aspects related to the components that have to do with Korean firms. In this sense, it is detailed that the screens of the iPhone 13 Pro Max and the iPhone 13 Mini will be supplied by Samsung, while the screens of the standard iPhone 13 and iPhone 13 Pro will be provided by LG.
Early rumors
As is usual at this time, rumors about the iPhone 13 have only just begun, but they are not expected until after next summer, so all information must be taken with the skepticism that any data deserves no official.
