Apple is expected to launch a new generation of iPhone series models in the second half of this year, according to Tianfeng Securities analyst Guo Ming𫓹 forecast report, the model name will be iPhone13, and maintain the same screen size specifications as last year’s iPhone12 series, a total of four models are: 5.4-inch iPhone13 mini, 6.1 The main focus of the upgrade is to have more computing power, better display performance (support high update rate) and back camera shooting performance (using a large sensor and 7P wide-angle lens).

Japanese website Mac Otakara has shared an image of what it claims to be a 6.1-inch iPhone 13 Pro model with significantly smaller bangs and a redesigned earpiece and front camera.

From the images we can see that the earpiece of the iPhone 13 Pro model has been moved to the top bezel of the phone, which is consistent with the previously revealed spy photos of the front panel.

The so-called iPhone 13 Pro model, prototype, is most likely based on the leaked drawings of the design. These drawings are often circulated in the supply chain or shell manufacturers before the official release of new machines by Apple. In addition to the more obvious changes to the earpiece section, the position of the front-facing camera has also changed, shifting to the left side of the earpiece (it was previously on the right side of the earpiece).

Mac Otakara also showed the size of the bangs of the upcoming iPhone 13 Pro as proof of smaller bangs. Compared to the iPhone 12 Pro, the model’s bangs are 5.35mm in height, while the iPhone 12 Pro’s bangs are 5.30mm in height and 26.80mm in width, down from 34.83mm. Visually, the new model has a smaller bangs width, but it will become taller.

Rumors of smaller bangs on the new iPhone have been around since the release of the iPhone X. The iPhone X introduces a bangs design for the first time, incorporating a native deep lens for face ID unlocking and payment. Apple is expected to make the bangs even smaller due to the change in earpiece position and the updated front camera position.

The back of the model can hardly be seen to change

Aside from the front bangs design, the photos shared by Macotakara do not show changes to the rear camera or other aspects of the iPhone design.

While there are no major design changes, there are rumors that the iPhone 13 has some major upgrades. The high-end iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max are rumored to come with ProMotion 120Hz screens and the entire lineup is expected to come with a faster A15 chip, further upgraded cameras and new colorways including Frosted Black.

There is no way to know whether the 6.1″ iPhone 13 Pro model design that was revealed this time is the finalized mass production version of Apple.
