The iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max come in the same 6.1 and 6.7-inch display sizes as the iPhone 12 Pro and iPhone 12 Pro Max. The new devices feature a smaller notch for more display area. The brighter Super Retina XDR display features ProMotion for refresh rates from 10Hz to 120Hz.
The stainless steel frame features a custom finish that is resistant to abrasion and corrosion. There is also a new Sierra Blue color option, along with Graphite, Gold, and Silver.
Both devices sport the A15 Bionic chip with a six-core CPU and a five-core GPU for a significant performance improvement. This is one extra GPU core than the iPhone 13's A15 chip.
Due to the efficiency of the A15 Bionic and a larger battery, the iPhone 13 Pro's battery life lasts more than 1.5 hours longer than the iPhone 12 Pro and the iPhone 13 Pro Max lasts 2.5 hours than iPhone 12 Pro Max.
The rear array contains a new 77mm Telephoto, Ultra Wide, and Wide lenses with sensor-shift stabilization for reduced camera shake. The iPhone 13 Pro features a 6x optical zoom range with a new 3x Telephoto camera. The Ultra Wide lens also now features autofocus and facilitates a new macrophotography mode that can take close-ups up to 2cm.
A new "Cinematic Mode" is able to blur the background of video in real-time, track objects and people, and rack focus. Night Mode is also now available on all of the rear cameras.
Photographic Styles bring individual preferences to local photo edits in real-time. Styles work across scenes and subject types and users do not need to define it every time they shoot. The iPhone 13 Pro can shoot video in ProRes for high color fidelity.
The iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max can connect to more 5G bands using custom antennas and radio components. Both devices also feature up to 1TB of storage, the most ever offered in an iPhone.
