Apple has given the world the first look at its new iPhone 13 during its annual product event hosted live from its headquarters in Cupertino, California.

The 6.1-inch smartphone keeps the sleek design and ceramic front shield as its predecessor, but now boasts a diagonal camera lenses design for the new dual system. 

The camera system captures 47 percent more light in a scene and includes the sensor shift stabilization that helps counterbalance any movement within the camera to take focused shots.

One of the latest and many iPhone 13 rumors said the smartphone would launch in a new pink color and that is what users can purchases – the new shade is also available for the iPhone 13 mini.

Customers can also purchases the iPhone 13 in blue, ‘midnight,’ ‘starlight’ and product red.

However, the largest upgrade is an increase in battery life: the iPhone 13 provides 2.5 more hours than the iPhone 12 and the iPhone mini gets 1.5 extra hours of power.

Apple hosted the event online for the second time since the coronavirus pandemic swept across the globe in 2020.

But the virus has not stopped the tech giant from sharing its latest and greatest products with the world.

The new iPhone 13 is not a completely redesigned Apple smartphone, but includes subtle changes that improves performance and user experience. 

For example, the Face ID notch is 20 percent smaller than what is featured on the iPhone 12.

The iPhone 13 has six cores and a specialized portion for running artificial intelligence algorithms. 

And the iPhone 13 and iPhone 13 mini both have larger batteries to give them more power than their  predecessors.  

The biggest change, which seems to come with each new iPhone, is the upgraded dual camera system, with one camera having a a larger sensor for a wider camera.

One of the camera improvements is a new ‘cinematic mode’ that can hold focus on a moving subject, allowing users to create movies that looks like it should be on the big screen

And the other lens is an ultra-wide lens.

The iPhone 13 mini costs $699 and the iPhone 13 costs $799, which is the same prices as last year. 

Some rumors leading up to the event speculated that the new devices could cost more due to the lingering chip shortage. 

But, the smartphones now start with 128GB of storage space, an increase over last year. 

Of course the iPhone 13 family would not be complete without the Pro and Pro Max, which Apple saved for the end of the event.

Greg Joswiak, Apple’s senior vice president of Worldwide Marketing, said in a statement: ‘iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max make up our most pro iPhone lineup ever with the biggest advancement for our camera system, the best battery life ever in an iPhone, and the fastest performance of any smartphone.
