Apple iPhone 13 spec and deals
It’s that time again… Apple fans around the world have been eagerly awaiting the launch of the new iPhone and Apple made the announcement on a live stream earlier this week.
The latest iPhones are here, and the top models are the iPhone 13 Pro and the iPhone 13 Pro Max.
The design itself is very similar to previous iPhone 12 models and so anyone hoping to see a radical change to the design may be left a little disappointed. However, the iPhone 13 range has a number of technical upgrades, including a speedy new A15 Bionic chipset, the Pro models see the biggest changes, with highlights including a 120Hz refresh rate for the first time on an iPhone, and up to 1TB of storage.
Bluecube will be accepting orders for the iPhone 13 range from 27/09/2021.
