iPhone 12 vs iPhone 13 Comparison

iPhone 12 vs 13

The iPhone 12 and iPhone 13 are similar in many ways. For example, their design is very similar, as is their performance. To decide between them, you need to look at their battery life. One of them stands out clearly, allowing you to choose between the two smartphones as an obvious choice.

The iPhone 12, a versatile model

With its high-quality 6.1-inch OLED display, the iPhone 12 is a particularly high-end model. Its successor, the iPhone 13, continues this trend with a similar screen but slightly larger thanks to the reduction of the notch on the front. In terms of performance, the iPhone 12 is still one of the most accomplished on the market. It is fluid to use on all applications including multitasking. It is therefore not really different from the 13 too. In photography, it's hard to tell them apart. The iPhone 13 is slightly better in low light conditions, but the difference in quality is minimal, and you will appreciate both handsets during everyday use.  

The iPhone 13, upgraded technology

The technical characteristics of the iPhone 13 are slightly better than those of its predecessor. Its screen is better calibrated, giving you better readability, even in sunlight. It also features Apple's new A15 Bionic chip for improved performance and fluidity. It is however heavier than the iPhone 12. This is due to the larger battery. You do get better battery life as a result, but the trade off is the heavier weight but just by a little bit. It is also slightly larger, taking up more space in your pocket. It also takes longer to charge, averaging 90 minutes compared to about 75 minutes for the iPhone 12.

Are you particularly concerned about the battery life of your smartphone? Then the iPhone 13 is your best bet. It is also able to withstand an average of 9 hours of additional use compared to the iPhone 12, which may be better suited to your daily needs. Otherwise, the iPhone 12 is still an excellent smartphone, the performance differences between these two models are minimal, allowing you to enjoy the best of Apple's features no matter which iPhone you decide to go with.
