Apple iPhone 13 Pro Review: Camera, Performance & Design

● Camera and Photography Features

The hardware on the Apple iPhone 13 Pro is almost the same as that on the iPhone 13 Pro Max, except that the battery and display are smaller. For the first time ever, you'll be able to take macro photos, and the main camera will have sensor-shift stabilization. The optical zoom can also go up to three times. Apple has recently added new camera features to its products. One of these features is Cinematic Mode, which makes videos look more like movies. Another is Photographic Styles, which lets users change how their photos look.

● Performance, Display, and Design

The new Apple A15 Bionic System-on-Chip (SoC) also works very well. The top-of-the-line model is expensive, but it can hold up to 1 terabyte of data. Even though the 120Hz ProMotion display shows a lot of improvement, an awkward notch can still be distracting. The stereo speakers sound great, and the device can run games and apps without any problems. The Apple iPhone 13 Pro is easier to hold and use than its bigger brother, and the quality of construction is great. The construction quality is also very good.
