Here are the five major announcements of this program

The latest iPhone 13 comes with the new A15 Bionic processor, bigger battery, more storage and new camera features.

The latest version will start at $799, the same price as its predecessor, and offer double the entry-level storage at 128GB. Its mini version will start at $699. The iPhone 13 is expected to last two and a half times longer than the iPhone 12 on a single charge.

The new 5-nanometer technology – considered the fastest chip in a smartphone – is a new 5-core GPU in the Pro lineup that brings the fastest graphics performance to any smartphone. That’s 30-50% faster than the leading competition, Apple said, with quality improvements for video apps, gaming and new camera features.
