The iPhone 13 is still a few months away, but more and more leaks continue to occur. A series of CAD renderings have appeared in the last few days, and YouTuber EverythingApplePro has 3D printed the ones for iPhone 13 Pro Max and iPhone 13 mini.
Pro Max shows some visible size increases compared to the 12 Pro Max, especially in the hump of the camera. The lenses extend even further, the phone itself is a little thicker, and the buttons and SIM tray have moved a little.
The larger lenses on the iPhone 13 Pro Max will probably equate to more light entering the larger sensors – up to 2 micrometers from 1.7 micrometers. That means better photos everywhere, especially in low light conditions that you would find indoors or at night.
These CAD files that EverythingApplePro printed are based on recently passed spec sheets. From them, we see that the hump of the camera will extend even more by 0.9 mm, while the body is 0.26 mm thick.
Once again, the notch is displayed as smaller, with the helmet placed on top of it apparently embedded above the place where the glass will be. A compressed notch will equalize multiple real estate properties on the screen, perfect for watching full-screen videos.
TotulApplePro also features a diagonal printed iPhone 13 mini with a LiDAR-free camera. As with the 13 Pro Max, the buttons, SIM tray and 5G antenna have moved a bit, so you’ll need a new case if you opt for the latest mini.
Keep in mind that next year’s iPhone 14 is unlikely to have a mini model, so the 13 mini is probably your last chance for a smaller iPhone.
Otherwise, we expect the iPhone 13 to launch in the regular September window. There should be four models: a 5.4-inch iPhone 13 mini, an iPhone 13 and a 6.1-inch iPhone 13 Pro, and a 6.7-inch iPhone 13 Pro Max.
