It is September 2021, and Apple has finally delivered the ‘Pro’ feature the UK tech scene has been begging for: 120Hz. The iPhone 13 Pro is a 204g powerhouse finished in surgical-grade stainless steel with a new ‘Sierra Blue’ matte glass back. While it shares the A15 Bionic chip with the standard 13, the Pro variant features a 5-core GPU and 6GB of RAM, making it a technical titan for mobile gaming and video editing. It is a dense, impeccably built device that represents the first time the ‘Pro’ suffix feels fully earned through display and camera parity._x000D_

The technical headline is the ‘Super Retina XDR’ display with ProMotion. This 6.1-inch OLED (2532 x 1170) features an adaptive refresh rate that scales from 10Hz to 120Hz, providing a level of fluid responsiveness that makes every scroll and animation feel instantaneous. On the imaging front, the triple-camera system has been completely rebuilt with larger sensors and wider apertures. The new ultra-wide lens features a technical ‘first’ for the iPhone: Macro photography, allowing you to focus on subjects just 2cm away. It also introduces ‘ProRes’ video recording and ‘Photographic Styles,’ which allow you to customise the camera’s pipeline at a hardware level._x000D_

Connectivity is top-tier with 5G, Wi-Fi 6, and a significantly larger 3,095 mAh battery that provides 1.5 hours more life than the 12 Pro. It also features a new 3x optical zoom telephoto lens, bringing the total zoom range to 6x. The device retains its IP68 rating (up to 6 metres) and MagSafe compatibility. The iPhone 13 Pro is a masterclass in professional-grade mobile technology; by combining the smoothest screen in the industry with a truly versatile camera system and class-leading battery life, it set a new standard for what a ‘Pro’ smartphone should be.
