What is the iPhone 13?

The iPhone 13 isn’t just a phone but, in fact, an entire range of phones released in September by the tech giant Apple. There is the iPhone 13 Mini, the iPhone 13, the iPhone 13 Pro, and for the serious tech lover, the iPhone 13 Pro Max. All powered by the new Apple chip, the A15 bionic, they all promise a far faster phone with a battery that will last 17, 19, 22 or a whopping 28 hours, respectively.

As you can probably decipher, the iPhone Mini is a smaller and cheaper version of the newest phone. As an affordable alternative to the iPhone 13, it’s smaller in size and smaller in price, starting at Dh2,999. The iPhone 13 standard model starts at Dh3,399 with a superior storage facility matched by the mini in 128, 256 and 512GB. The Pro and the Pro Max, on the other hand, offer a massive storage number with an entire terabyte of storage for Dh4,199 and Dh4,699, respectively.

In addition, the Pro and Pro Max offer an extra lens in the upgraded camera. The three of them provide a wide-angle, ultrawide and telephoto camera for the creative among us. The iPhone 13 range offers a superior display with a 120Hz screen, a fantastic camera with two lenses, and a whole rainbow of case covers to make it the best-looking accessory to any wardrobe.

Games, Movies and More

The new iOS 15 software coupled with the A15 Bionic chip makes for a high-speed phone that will deliver sharper graphics, remove lag and other motion issues. Users of the phone who enjoy fast moving mobile games like Fortnite will be blown away by the smooth motion of the action. The leading online casino games continue to demand more and more from a smartphone too, with improved graphics and more real-time interactivity. Their dedicated apps are optimised for smartphones, always pushing the existing hardware and software to the limits they can. Gamers embraced the mobile capabilities of online casino, indicative of the general trend of companies pivoting to smartphones and the mobile market, like games console companies are now doing. This new chip upgrade, as well as the evolution of 5G will no doubt impress iPhone 13 users and industry experts, pushing what they can do that little further.

So, there’s a lot to lust after following the announcement of the latest phone, and there are many reasons the iPhone 13 would be an interest to the people of the UAE. So, where can we get it?

Is there anything else?

But the tech upgrades don’t stop there. Apple also released a few iPads for gadget lovers out there, so you can play the leading online casino games on a giant screen with the best resolution. They announced an upgrade on the entry-level iPad, with a 10.2-inch screen, 64GB of storage, a 12-megapixel front camera, and a mini version with an 8.3-inch screen and 5G connectivity.

Apple also announced the addition of the seventh series of Apple Watches, which are available to order from October 8th and feature an entire redesign. The watch now features a range of diverse straps before we even get into the tech specifics.

The new watches offer a new S7 chipset which offers 32Gb of storage, and an advanced charging rate, charging in a third of the time faster. It provides a range of monitoring features, including tracking of ECG, blood oxygen, heart rate, and many other metrics. On top of the physical perks, the Apple Watch also looks to improve your mind with an overhauled Mindfulness app.
