While the latest iPhone 17 series is quite expensive, given its features such as a larger camera sensor, USB Type-C, and faster performance, the 4-year-old iPhone 13 might be the right phone at the right price for most Apple enthusiasts. Let's take a look at the standard iPhone 13 and its latest official price in Nepal, specifications, and more.

iPhone 13 Overview:

Design and Display

The iPhone 13 features the same flat-edge design as last year's iPhones. The frame is made of aluminum, and the corners are rounded. Similarly, the notch on the front is also smaller this time. Moving on, there is not much to talk about the display. This 6.1-inch Super Retina XDR OLED screen is brighter while retaining all the features of its predecessor. Still, it would have been better if Apple had included 120Hz ProMotion on the non-Pro iPhone 13s as well.

Moving on, the iPhone 13 has an IP68 rating for dust- and water-resistance. It is offered in five color options: (PRODUCT)RED, Starlight, Midnight, Blue, and Pink.

Performance and Memory

Like the rest of the lineup, the standard iPhone 13 is powered by the A15 Bionic chipset. Apple's latest mobile silicon is based on TSMC's 5nm process node and packs 15 billion transistors. Still, the iPhone 13 is not as powerful as its Pro siblings. Here, Apple has included a 6-core CPU and a 4-core GPU—unlike the 5-core GPU in the iPhone 13 Pro and Pro Max.

Apple is also claiming a significant boost in machine-learning applications with its new 16-core Neural Engine, which delivers 15.8 TOPS.

Camera

At the back, Apple has redesigned the camera bump, placing the camera sensorsdiagonally instead. While the ultra-wide camera remains unchanged, the primary camera receives a couple of changes. To start, the iPhone 13 features a larger sensor that captures 47% more light than last year's model. It's the same one that was used in last year's Pro models. Similarly, sensor-shift Optical Image Stabilization (OIS) is now available on the vanilla iPhone.

With the new Cinematic mode, the iPhone 13 can now automatically shift the focus between subjects based on their movement. One can even change the focus after the recording using apps like Photos and iMovie. Like always, there is a 12MP TrueDepth camera on the front.

Rest of the specs

The iPhone 13 also features a larger battery. Apple claims that the new 3,240mAh cell in the iPhone 13 can deliver 2 hours more of offline video playback than the iPhone 12. The charging speed is the same as last year, though. It supports 20W wired, 15W MagSafe Wireless, and 7.5W Qi Wireless charging. However, you will need to purchase the charger separately, as Apple doesn't include one in the box.
