Should I get the iPhone 13?
Well, it’s an unlucky number for some, but Apple’s 2021 smartphone didn’t disappoint.
The iPhone 13 comes with the slick looks, cutting-edge features and internal firepower that we’ve come to know and love from the world’s biggest tech brand.
In his iPhone 13 review, The Sun’s Tech Editor Sean Keach praised the hugely improved night-time camera quality, while in his iPhone 13 Pro review he talks about the brand-new A15 Bionic processor.
Of course, top-end smartphones don’t stay top-end for that long – this year, the iPhone 13 will be supplanted by iPhone 14 (with rumours and leaks already surfacing online).
What that does mean, though, is that prices across iPhone 13 contracts will start to fall, so if the tariffs on this page are too rich for your blood, maybe it’s worth coming back to this page towards the end of the year when the 13 is no longer Apple’s top-of-the-line handset.
How long does it take for iPhone 13 orders to arrive?
Pre-orders for the iPhone 13 went live on Friday, September 17, 2021, before the range officially hit shelves on Friday, September 24.
Then, on Friday, March 18 2022, the new green iPhone 13 and 13 Pro along with iPhone SE began shipping.
Since then, the wait times for Apple’s latest devices have varied wildly, particularly on the Pro models.
But while Apple appeared to have been hit by the global chip shortage in October 2021, the company seems to have recovered now.
