Editorial report

Apple iPhone 13 4 GB / 256 GB / International technical sheet

The iPhone 13 suits buyers who want a compact phone with a strong display, a stabilized camera and broad connectivity. Its main trade-off is the 3240 mAh battery, among the weakest capacities of its time.

Its 6.1″ OLED display reaches 460 ppi, one of the highest pixel densities of its generation, and 1200 nits of peak brightness. HDR10 and Dolby Vision are also supported. The 60 Hz refresh rate is among the slowest of its time. The phone weighs 174 g, measures 7.7 mm thick and has IP68 protection against dust and water.

The Apple A15 Bionic reaches 1,256,049 in AnTuTu, better than most phones of its time. The configuration shown combines 4 GB / 128 GB, while the iPhone 13 is also sold with 4 GB / 256 GB and 4 GB / 512 GB. Its camera has 12 MP, an f/1.6 aperture, optical stabilization and 4K recording; that aperture is among the brightest of its time. Connectivity is among the best, with 5G, Wi‑Fi 6, NFC and eSIM.

Wired charging reaches 20 W, while 15 W wireless charging is among the best. With an overall NeoScore of 6.2, the iPhone 13 is best suited to buyers who prioritize size, display, camera and connectivity over battery capacity, a 60 Hz refresh rate and 4 GB of RAM.
