We have a piece of good news for Apple fans! the tech giant is reportedly going to unveil the upcoming iPhone 13 series on September 14. The upcoming series will go on pre-orders from September 17 and it is said to go on sale starting September 24 in the market, GizmoChina reported on Friday.
According to IT Home, the iPhone 13 series is already listed on an e-commerce website in China. Apple is likely to unveil all four models of its upcoming 'iPhone 13' lineup with larger batteries, an updated chipset, and expanded mmWave 5G support, a report said earlier.
The iPhone 13 lineup may mirror the iPhone 12 family of phones, with a 5.4-inch iPhone 13 Mini, 6.1-inch iPhone 13, 6.1-inch iPhone 13 Pro, and 6.7-inch iPhone 13 Pro Max.
The device is said to be powered by Apple's next-generation A15 chip manufactured based on TSMC's 5nm+ process.
The entire iPhone 13 range is also expected to sport the LiDAR sensor. The sensor first appeared in the latest generation iPad Pro in March this year followed by the iPhone 12 Pro and iPhone 12 Pro Max.
In addition to the new and exciting launch, the Cupertino-based tech giant will also increase the price of the upcoming iPhones to compensate for rising chip production costs. According to DigiTimes, Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC), is planning to increase the costs of its chip production, impacting several customers, including Apple.
TSMC may increase its costs by as much as 20 percent for its "advanced and mature process technologies".
As per the report, Apple will bring a 3-5 percent hike in iPhone 13 prices due to these changes as TSMC's advanced sub-7nm process technologies quotes may rise by 3-10 percent.
