Get Ready to Pay More for the iPhone 13

As we enter the last ( hopefully ) stretch of iPhone 13 rumors before Apple ’s September result , it appears that upgrading might cost more than usual .

harmonize toDigiTimes(viaMacRumors ) , Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. ( TMSC)—one of thetop chipmakers in the worldand an Apple supplier — plans to up its production toll by as much as 20 % . Those change are expected to hit in January 2022 . DigiTimes claims that Apple , TMSC ’s big client , will as a result see price boost between 3 - 5 % .

But , you say , that ’s month from now ! Why would that touch on the price of iPhones that are probably nearing the conclusion of production and will before long be revealed to the world at large ? The report card take it ’s that eld - old reason of passing the cost to consumer to protect profitability — just regular ol’ capitalist economy .

While this is definitely possible , we ’ll have to see whether that damage wage increase is spread evenly across the intact iPhone 13 lineup or if they ’ll be only be put together onto the high - last Pro models .

This yr , we ’re require to see four models of the iPhone 13 , admit the iPhone Mini ’s last hooray . The phones are expected to havebigger battery , minuscule notches , andseveral camera upgradeslike a Portrait Video mode , ProRes , and more reflexive filter options . Other thing to look out for are 120Hz refresh rates for the displays and a faster A15 central processing unit . That said , it ’s expected the iPhone 13 will be more of an incremental upgrade than a radical overhaul . An iPhone 12S , as they might have called it in the olden days .

As for when we ’ll see these pricey phones , the belated possibility is the iPhone 13 will go on sale on Sept. 17 . A few other devices that we might see launched alongside the iPhone are the Apple Watch Series 7 , AirPods 3 , and perhaps a novel iPad Mini . And while antecedently we had all hoped this declivity would see just one Apple event , it await like we ’re in for another season of multiple launch events . Right now it face like a second possible launch event will center around the M1X MacBooks and a fancy Mac Mini .
