@@offgun6466 The battery is shit if youre used to something like the iphone 11/11pro, but since i was upgrading from an iphone 8, its absolutely enough for me
I upgraded to a 13 pro max from a 6s plus, and man, I am loving it. After a days use, the battery has never fallen below 70% yet. The pro motion 120hz screen is amazing. I don't think I'll ever be able to go back to a 60hz phone again. The camera are cool. I really only use them for sending snaps and taking pictures of homework. I got the 256gb model so I can film prores. I will more than likely never use the feature but I wanted the top of the line phone so I got the top of the line phone. I have seen so many people say "the Iphone 13 isn't an upgraded" and shit like that. Yeah maybe not from the 11/12 but guess what, you don't always need to go and buy the latest and greatest phone every year. For me, it was a huge upgrade and I am very happy with it.
ikr for me, theres no need to upgrade if someone using just a regular iphone 12 to upgrade into iphone 13, because for me its just feel like a waste of money, they should instead get an iphone 13 pro with 256gb of storage so that they can have the pro res feature and the 120hz display.
I also own the iPhone 6s (the regular size, NOT the Plus), and I already ordered my Sierra Blue iPhone 13 Pro (NOT the Max, but regular size) last week and is set to arrive in 3 weeks 😍 I can’t wait!!!, I’ve been using my 6s for the last 6 years man!!!, let’s see how this new phone turns out to be
Also still living with the 6S Plus. Love the headphone jack, and still getting updates... May bet one of the new ones soon (especailly for the LiDar since I am in engineering), but for now I am sticking to the 6S Plus.
I upgraded to a 13 from an 11. I loved the bigger screen of the 11 (compared to the 6 I had before that) but always felt the device was cumbersome to hold in one hand. The difference in ergonomics between the 11 and 13 is striking. The 13 is much easier to manage with one hand, and it’s lighter to boot. Did I need to upgrade? No. But I’m glad I did. This is a phone that I will be able to use for 4+ years.
Just upgraded from an 11 as well and I am so happy with my decision to upgrade. This phone is awesome, the screen looks amazing, the camera is great, it’s fast. Very happy !
I went with the 12 mini last year near launch because I have smallish hands, and as an upgrade from my 7. I have not been upset except for FaceID’s struggles with masks. Probably going to go regular-sized in 3-4 years. One-handed operation isn’t as feasible as anticipated, and more screen and more battery is more better.

This is way more cinematic than many of the LTT videos and seems enjoyable. It's like a documentary or a commentary than an actual UA-cam video. Not gonna lie, I'm impressed
I bought the iphone 13 and it's just simply great. It has never died on me in a single day when after heavy use. Iphone 13 has one of the best 60hz display and I won't be feeling slow at all bcz of the great software optimisation and animations. The cameras are top of the line. I do sometimes miss a telephone camera but even without it the camera system is just awesome
i think the most important thing to consider is that the 13 starts at 128gb where as the 12 starts at 64 and is an extra 100 for a 128gb model. making the 13 a really good deal
Was extremely excited about this one after seeing all the initial reviews and all iPhone 13 are out of stock for more than a month in my area. My excitement got wore off little by little and decided to use that money for the 13 pro to build a computer. Think my XR will give me a year or two
I'm an iPhone 8 Plus user for a few years now. Been tempted to upgrade to a 12 (or even now, a 13), but the size difference and lack of touch ID have been the deciding factors for me. I also can't really justify upgrading when my current one still works perfectly well. Who know, maybe by the time I NEED an upgrade, it'll be time for the iPhone 20 or something
Hi , I too was wondering if I’d miss Touch ID home button , and yes I do , ( bought the 13) , however what you gain more than makes up for it , Face ID really is fast and reliable , and you’ve always got the double press side button option ( better than I make it sound ) ……given you are on an 8 , as you’d expect the internals being better is expected , however , the screen and battery life experience is beyond expectations and will leave you with no regrets about upgrading ….
@@kevanmcnay3079 What timing! I actually just upgraded over Black Friday weekend to the 13 (though I'm still waiting for it to arrive in the mail). Didn't expect to, but a good price deal coinciding with switching cell providers and I just decided to give it a go
I got the iPhone 13 Pro at launch upgrading from the iPhone 12 Pro for the camera/smaller notch/promotion. But even having large hands, I'm tired of the large display. I bought a used Iphone 13 mini 128gb for 630$ shipped off swappa. Looking forward to it. After testing my friend's iphone 12 mini, it just just felt right and my hand felt less tired trying to use the phone one handed. Keep making great videos MA!
I switched from Iphone 7 to the 13 pro using apple's financing option, every simple. And the 13 pro is just phenomenal. It's like from using a "wired" phone to a 2 day battery phone. I can finally ditch the huge battery bank and never worried about it during the day.
Hi, I am 36 old mum working from home, so no really IT person. I bought iPhone 13 and thought i it would be enough. After 14 days I switched to 13 pro version because of the camera. And I am no photographer. Digital vs optical zoom is a big difference. Photos when the object moves also (children do not wait for the photo). Photos in dark were quite similar but there was big difference with photos against the sun. Also the battery is slightly better, but not big deal for me…
Loving my 13 mini. This is the perfect size for me as I use my phone for smaller and simpler tasks and go to my iPad to tasks where I want the bigger screen.
getting the 13 is enough for me honestly. funny enough, the sponsor is also what charger i use. as someone who uses the phone non-stop (while keeping the battery between 40-80%), i only have to plug my phone for less than an hour about 2x a day. but on days where i'd have to go out, the battery does last a long, long time.
Great video Jonathan , outdoor cinematography is superb here. Your point about how long iphones last is spot on. I'm here on my iPhone X and still searching for a reason to upgrade (can't find one). Choosing an iPhone is like choosing a mate - you gotta get it right ..
@TheRealBandito The Galaxy phones in the same categories have an extra camera, better screens, batteries etc, so you're basically paying for easy to use software nowadays. Also you can get an S21 5G+ for 450$ on my region right now which is newer than the iPhone 11 and has twice the storage by default.
Everyone holds their phones in different ways, lol. There isn't a "right way" or standard on how to hold your phone -- it's very individual and depends on how comfortable it feels to the specific person... Edit: also, he's left-handed ( see 8:20 ), so he presses the button to capture with the iPhone rotated on its right side, leaving the bottom facing the left for his thumb to press that on-screen button.
erm is it a problem tho? im also hold it like that, cause im worried that i could have accidently dropped my slippery glass back phone, im using a samsung s21 plus btw even tho the back is not really slippery cause it has frosted glass back, but still im a little bit concerned that i could dropped it, sorry for bad english
@@adibafiq6945 I would recommend buying a case to hold it more securely. However you hold it is fine as long as you use both hands; even how the gentleman in the video is holding it is okay.
Your videos are very helpful. It focuses more on real life situations rather than specs and thermals 👍 I was checking out 13 and 13 mini just yesterday. If it wasn't for the notch i would have already purchased one. Gonna wait one more year!
Apple focused on the most important aspects of the phones, the screen, battery, camera, and storage. All got an improvement. No way would it be worth the upgrade from a 12 series, or even an 11 series, but IMO anything before that, you'd see a big difference.
This seemed like a different format from your other videos, and it didn’t feel as cookie cutter as every other iPhone review does. This was a great video
I wish my 12 mini was the same red as the 13 mini. It’s less salmon and more red. Luckily I found a super thin metal case that color with a lovely satin finish which fixes both the finger prints and color perfectly.
Still no Apple User (PC / Android) but I love how Jonathan presents the Apple cosmos and I can get all the infos I want when talking tech with friends and family - to know the other side also. Thanks for this, and keep up the good work. PS: I love that many fotos are not shot in the studio but outdoors, its refreshing
I love my 13 in Starlight. The 13 Pro Max was to big for me so I sold it. Got the regular 13 and it's still a very good upgrade to my 12 Pro and the weight difference is massive...
I had the 13 pro for 10 days and returned it for a regular 13. The pros are just getting too heavy. The weight is a massive difference to me. The weight shifts to the top with the pro too because of the cameras so it’s just more awkward in the hand. The weight on the regular 13 is more even. I’ll miss out on some features but whatever I don’t need a brick in my pocket or in my hand.
I accidentally confirmed that it's 100% water tight :). And yes, it's hard to train the battery (3x full to empty when new) as it takes two days to drain. As for not getting a charger in the box, you can actually hook it up to a Qi 4 capable supply (read: more oompf than the "traditional" charger) and it'll charge faster, at around 12..14W.
I just went with the 13 mini this year, even though I had a regular 12 last year because I couldn’t stand the bigger size of smartphones nowadays, even after using it for 9 months. The 13 mini is the right size for me and the fact that it had an actually decent battery life for my use, makes it a phone that can last me further than 3 years.
@@rehmanali2895 personally, I recommend the 13 mini. The battery life is good enough for most people and even the screen size is pretty big for most forms of media consumption. The “normal” size 13 is extra in my opinion. I guess if you prioritize screen size or battery life because you are more of a power user, then sure the regular 13 is the better choice. But my default recommendation is the 13 mini.
@@Marngel I have a doubt that the regular 13 cameras are better than 13 mini, even though they're considered identical. What are your thoughts on this? Also, are you liking 13 mini cameras for videos specially?
@@rehmanali2895 the cameras between the regular 13 and 13 mini should be identical. From my experience, the 13 mini takes excellent photos and videos. It shouldn’t be a concern.
I just bought my Iphone 13 last week. Didn't have a plan, Didn't have an old iphone to trade in. I got it on discount promo plus a free wireless charger. It was a good deal!
I have an 11 Pro that I bought shortly after it was released. So it's a tick over 2 years old now. Still has 90% battery capacity left... The photo-quality of the 13 Pro is clearly better -- but not so much better that I'm willing to go through the hassle and cost of the upgrade. I think I'll be sticking with my 11 Pro for awhile longer yet.
how many more years do you think you'll keep it, provided that it doesn't slow down or show any issues? i'm trying to decide whether or not it's worth it to get an 11 Pro since the price of it used is pretty cheap, but i'm worried about it not having 5G.
@@idontknow-tj5vo I'm thinking another 2 years or so. Maybe 3? My wife has an iPhone X, which is just a bit over 4 years old now. It's finally starting to show its age. Seems like 5 years is about the limit for a top-of-the-line iPhone.
Coming from a Samsung A71 the iPhone 13 blue feels a world apart so fast and with amazing cameras and lovely software and a great-display. Well done Apple
I bought an SE 2020 last year after upgrading from an original SE cause I like the smaller size, but I'm kicking myself now as the 12 mini came out right after I bought it. Once I'm done paying it off next year I'm debating getting a 13 mini once the next models come out.
Even though I am jealous of the bigger storage on the base model, I think I am going to stick to iPhone 12 mini up until iPhone 15 or 16, maybe even 17. It's perfectly fine for me, after a half year of usage, and I think I other, than the bigger base storage and better battery, all these improvements don't really impress me that much. I think they are nice, but not worth my money.
I'm certainly more of a fan of the 12's blue than the 13's blue. I hope they don't shift their colors too often I like the choice but don't want the shades shifting each year.
Upgrade from my iPhone 12 Pro? Nah, too small of a difference. Will probably get the 14 or 14 Pro as a replacement. Skipping one or two generations makes more sense to me…
Believe it or not, your review reminds me Sir David Attenborough. Your body language, your talking style even the environment tells me that. Good review.
Finally someone points out that it’s actually a $50 difference between the 12/13 because of the baseline storage. In this sense they actually lowered the price of the 13s this year. Not enough reviewers acknowledging this
Believe it or not, I recently upgraded to the iPhone 13 back in February. I had the standard 64GB iPhone XR. So for me, upgrading to the standard iPhone 13 was a no brainer. I got 128GB of storage, 5G, and the two cameras. It was a good choice in my opinion.
Even till this day the 13 remains a great phone I just got one brand new back in Nov as a backup phone excellent battery performance and a damn good camera it’s the perfect size even with a case on it the 60hz isn’t terrible at all it’s smooth enough and iOS 17 has been problem free

When I upgraded from my SE, I just bought the base model 13 since I came from a base model. It’s been great so far
The Mac Adress videos are so polished.
Hi, I am 36 old mum working from home, so no really IT person. I bought iPhone 13 and thought i it would be enough. After 14 days I switched to 13 pro version because of the camera. And I am no photographer. Digital vs optical zoom is a big difference. Photos when the object moves also (children do not wait for the photo). Photos in dark were quite similar but there was big difference with photos against the sun. Also the battery is slightly better, but not big deal for me…
Loving my 13 mini. This is the perfect size for me as I use my phone for smaller and simpler tasks and go to my iPad to tasks where I want the bigger screen.
getting the 13 is enough for me honestly. funny enough, the sponsor is also what charger i use. as someone who uses the phone non-stop (while keeping the battery between 40-80%), i only have to plug my phone for less than an hour about 2x a day. but on days where i'd have to go out, the battery does last a long, long time.
Finally! Another Mac Address video from the outdoors. I love the vibe!
What a production quality!!💗.. I was watching UA-cam from my phone and I turned on my PC just to watch this.
That contrasty shot down the hallway looked great. Good choice to switch to Sony, the ursa makes shots like that much harder
Great video Jonathan , outdoor cinematography is superb here.
Your point about how long iphones last is spot on. I'm here on my iPhone X and still searching for a reason to upgrade (can't find one). Choosing an iPhone is like choosing a mate - you gotta get it right ..
I suppose this is "The Standard iPhone" . Not many "Pro" features but it is made for the masses.
Ye the only problem is that it’s also a tad pricy for the masses, but a lot of people can still afford it
@TheRealBandito The Galaxy phones in the same categories have an extra camera, better screens, batteries etc, so you're basically paying for easy to use software nowadays. Also you can get an S21 5G+ for 450$ on my region right now which is newer than the iPhone 11 and has twice the storage by default.
3:23 Are we not gonna talk about how Jonathon holds his phone to take a landscape photo?
Everyone holds their phones in different ways, lol. There isn't a "right way" or standard on how to hold your phone -- it's very individual and depends on how comfortable it feels to the specific person...
Edit: also, he's left-handed ( see 8:20 ), so he presses the button to capture with the iPhone rotated on its right side, leaving the bottom facing the left for his thumb to press that on-screen button.
seems fine?
@@Brickoliciousness It's normal haha, he just holds his phone on the opposite side since he's left-handed. (See 8:20 for context)
erm is it a problem tho? im also hold it like that, cause im worried that i could have accidently dropped my slippery glass back phone, im using a samsung s21 plus btw even tho the back is not really slippery cause it has frosted glass back, but still im a little bit concerned that i could dropped it, sorry for bad english
@@adibafiq6945 I would recommend buying a case to hold it more securely. However you hold it is fine as long as you use both hands; even how the gentleman in the video is holding it is okay.
Your videos are very helpful. It focuses more on real life situations rather than specs and thermals 👍
I was checking out 13 and 13 mini just yesterday. If it wasn't for the notch i would have already purchased one. Gonna wait one more year!
Apple focused on the most important aspects of the phones, the screen, battery, camera, and storage. All got an improvement. No way would it be worth the upgrade from a 12 series, or even an 11 series, but IMO anything before that, you'd see a big difference.
This seemed like a different format from your other videos, and it didn’t feel as cookie cutter as every other iPhone review does. This was a great video
Damn the production quality on this video is nuts. I already bought a 13 mini but still enjoyed.
Do you recommend 13 mini or the regular 13?
@@rehmanali2895 the regular 13! Better battery life. But if you want a smaller phone iPhone 13 is good too. Either one is good
Thank you for talking about how convoluted carrier deals are this year!
The cinematography on this channel 🤌
I wish my 12 mini was the same red as the 13 mini. It’s less salmon and more red. Luckily I found a super thin metal case that color with a lovely satin finish which fixes both the finger prints and color perfectly.
Plz share the link of that
Love the cinematography work. Keep it coming
Still no Apple User (PC / Android) but I love how Jonathan presents the Apple cosmos and I can get all the infos I want when talking tech with friends and family - to know the other side also.
Thanks for this, and keep up the good work.
PS: I love that many fotos are not shot in the studio but outdoors, its refreshing
8:37 that article in the reading list certainly caught my eye lmao
lol
As I’ve said in the past, the iPhone 13 really does feel like the 12S in all but name. And yeah, cool to see that you agree with this.
it’s easier to get answers on work in class with the 13 coming from an XR the camera is so helpful
I love my 13 in Starlight. The 13 Pro Max was to big for me so I sold it. Got the regular 13 and it's still a very good upgrade to my 12 Pro and the weight difference is massive...
I had the 13 pro for 10 days and returned it for a regular 13. The pros are just getting too heavy. The weight is a massive difference to me. The weight shifts to the top with the pro too because of the cameras so it’s just more awkward in the hand. The weight on the regular 13 is more even. I’ll miss out on some features but whatever I don’t need a brick in my pocket or in my hand.
I love the more dynamic shooting style and fluid editing. Would love to see some of this in the LTT videos! Fantastic presenting too Jon!
The location and the warmth of the videos is really nice.
Just bought the 13
The outside setting of the review is so appealing, a breath of fresh air.
Sick shots in this video! Well done to @Andy for the camera shots and to @Jonathan for the hosting😁
Which camera used by you to make this video
I accidentally confirmed that it's 100% water tight :). And yes, it's hard to train the battery (3x full to empty when new) as it takes two days to drain. As for not getting a charger in the box, you can actually hook it up to a Qi 4 capable supply (read: more oompf than the "traditional" charger) and it'll charge faster, at around 12..14W.
You don’t need to train batteries for the longest time
Mac adress….must watch
I just went with the 13 mini this year, even though I had a regular 12 last year because I couldn’t stand the bigger size of smartphones nowadays, even after using it for 9 months. The 13 mini is the right size for me and the fact that it had an actually decent battery life for my use, makes it a phone that can last me further than 3 years.
Do you recommend 13 mini or the regular 13?
@@rehmanali2895 personally, I recommend the 13 mini. The battery life is good enough for most people and even the screen size is pretty big for most forms of media consumption. The “normal” size 13 is extra in my opinion. I guess if you prioritize screen size or battery life because you are more of a power user, then sure the regular 13 is the better choice. But my default recommendation is the 13 mini.
@@Marngel I have a doubt that the regular 13 cameras are better than 13 mini, even though they're considered identical. What are your thoughts on this? Also, are you liking 13 mini cameras for videos specially?
@@rehmanali2895 the cameras between the regular 13 and 13 mini should be identical. From my experience, the 13 mini takes excellent photos and videos. It shouldn’t be a concern.
@@Marngel Thank you bro, I would go for 13 mini now. Hope its resale value stays good so i can opt for Iphone 14 at the end of 2022. Thank you again.
Love the new channel, and couldnt have found a better host :)
Brandon and Jonathan does the best camera comparison, they are best and videos are so esthetic to watch .
A Mac Channel that is unbiased! Subscribed!
Thanks for releasing this a day after I bought a 12... I love the blue on the 12 though! Great video as always!
This is my first Mac Address video and there's a very Gadget Show feel to this, which I love! Keep up the good work!
GREAT camera work and editing. Absolutely loved it
Thanks, Mac Adress!
IMO. Apple should up the pro models to 240hz and make the standard IPhones have 90hz displays, maybe 120hz eventually.
Just ordered mine in pink, can’t wait to get it!
That focus pull between the lenses was smooooooth!
I love this style of video more ( I like the balance of you going inside and out )
I upgraded from a IPhone XR To A IPhone 13 and no regrets getting the 13!
I just bought my Iphone 13 last week. Didn't have a plan, Didn't have an old iphone to trade in. I got it on discount promo plus a free wireless charger. It was a good deal!
I'm still perfectly happy with my Xr
Awesome videos keep it up
Who remembers the refocus app on Windows phone? That was stunning capturing depth photos.
I really love the colour grading in your videos! Looks awesome
Nice job Jonathan!
I have an 11 Pro that I bought shortly after it was released. So it's a tick over 2 years old now. Still has 90% battery capacity left... The photo-quality of the 13 Pro is clearly better -- but not so much better that I'm willing to go through the hassle and cost of the upgrade. I think I'll be sticking with my 11 Pro for awhile longer yet.
how many more years do you think you'll keep it, provided that it doesn't slow down or show any issues? i'm trying to decide whether or not it's worth it to get an 11 Pro since the price of it used is pretty cheap, but i'm worried about it not having 5G.
@@idontknow-tj5vo I'm thinking another 2 years or so. Maybe 3? My wife has an iPhone X, which is just a bit over 4 years old now. It's finally starting to show its age. Seems like 5 years is about the limit for a top-of-the-line iPhone.
Love this channel!
Coming from a Samsung A71 the iPhone 13 blue feels a world apart so fast and with amazing cameras and lovely software and a great-display. Well done Apple
I bought an SE 2020 last year after upgrading from an original SE cause I like the smaller size, but I'm kicking myself now as the 12 mini came out right after I bought it. Once I'm done paying it off next year I'm debating getting a 13 mini once the next models come out.
I have a 12 mini and love the size of it. So glad to see 13 kept the mini size.
Finally someone highlighted this ! smart hdr turn on/off option!
Even though I am jealous of the bigger storage on the base model, I think I am going to stick to iPhone 12 mini up until iPhone 15 or 16, maybe even 17. It's perfectly fine for me, after a half year of usage, and I think I other, than the bigger base storage and better battery, all these improvements don't really impress me that much. I think they are nice, but not worth my money.
I'm certainly more of a fan of the 12's blue than the 13's blue. I hope they don't shift their colors too often I like the choice but don't want the shades shifting each year.
Upgrade from my iPhone 12 Pro? Nah, too small of a difference. Will probably get the 14 or 14 Pro as a replacement. Skipping one or two generations makes more sense to me…
Believe it or not, your review reminds me Sir David Attenborough. Your body language, your talking style even the environment tells me that. Good review.
Just used my 13 Pro Max now for 12h watching videos, tiktok, taking photos and texting a lot and I still have 60% left, very happy with battery!
Subscribed. Amazing video quality and review.
Mac Address always puts out such wonderful videos, hopefully you see a well deserved subscriber increase soon!!!
Dude, you are entertaining and very informative. Nice vid!
Finally someone points out that it’s actually a $50 difference between the 12/13 because of the baseline storage. In this sense they actually lowered the price of the 13s this year. Not enough reviewers acknowledging this
or they leave it out on purpose. Complains n negativity generate more views
Getting this tomorrow after having an IPhone 8 for 3 years, hopefully it’s worth it!
Believe it or not, I recently upgraded to the iPhone 13 back in February. I had the standard 64GB iPhone XR. So for me, upgrading to the standard iPhone 13 was a no brainer. I got 128GB of storage, 5G, and the two cameras. It was a good choice in my opinion.
Such a great content! Thanks for sharing your thoughts especially on the upgrading part.
i upgrade my Xr to 13 will arrive on next monday! can´t wait...for it
Wow. I do really like your videos. I can’t understand why you don’t have millions of subscribers.
Even till this day the 13 remains a great phone I just got one brand new back in Nov as a backup phone excellent battery performance and a damn good camera it’s the perfect size even with a case on it the 60hz isn’t terrible at all it’s smooth enough and iOS 17 has been problem free
im still rocking my 7 and i think today is the day i finally do it. either this or a new PC. i dont even have my new desk welded out yet so phone it is
At the end of the video, he was like “who could It be?” And then I got an ad right after saying a “can of paint?” 😂
