IPhone 13 Release Date: When Can We Expect To See The New Phones?

Although it has only been a few months since the iPhone 12 went on sale, Apple is already targeting its next flagship smartphone, the iPhone 13 (or whatever he ends up calling himself). We expect to see four versions of the new phone: the iPhone 13, iPhone 13 Mini, iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max, according to analyst Ming-Chi Kuo. But when can we expect Apple to introduce its newest phones?

Apple has yet to hint at the date of the iPhone 13 event. However, based on Apple’s story, we can typically predicts when the company’s iPhone events will occur, and make an educated guess about a release date based on that. While the pandemic changed the usual course for 2020, marking the first September Apple event in eight years without iPhone because production delays, Kuo predicts that 2021 will see a return to the company’s typical cadence.

If this is true, we can expect to see the iPhone 13 for the first time at an event sometime in September.

Apple typically holds its events on Tuesdays or Wednesdays, and iPhone launch dates are typically set about a week and a half after Apple announces the new devices. New iPhones are typically released on Fridays, around the third week of September.

Under the 2021 calendar, the Labor Day rule would place the September Apple event (and the iPhone 13 unveiling) on ​​September 8, with a release date of September 17.

We won’t know if this is true until Apple announces an event and unveils the phones. But if you want to plan ahead and save for an iPhone 13, we’ll be betting on the September timeline, for now at least.
