All things considered, is the iPhone 13 Pro worth it? On standalone terms, yes. Its cameras are definitely better than its predecessors, and so are its display, performance and battery life.

The iPhone 13 Pro isn’t a massive leap from last year’s model, and that’s okay. You cannot expect every new iPhone generation to be crazy different. This year’s iPhone range focuses on iterative updates. But there’s plenty of new features that make the new iPhone 13 Pro worth taking a look at.

The iPhone 13 Pro is camera extraordinaire and although is late to the party with many features, it does them so well, like Macro photography and adaptive refresh rates. It's the best Apple has to offer in way of 2021 smartphones.

Superb camera, All day battery

Weighty

It seems likely that Apple expects at least a significant number of its customers to skip generations of its phones, given that upgrades each time are generally fairly modest. That means that from iPhone to iPhone the differences are somewhat minimal, but if you’ve missed a generation, you’ll notice...

Cheaper than last year’s iPhone 12 Pro, Excellent macro/close-up focusing, Same cameras on both Pro and Pro Max

No advanced controls in native app, Price still high, Relatively restricted zoom

“The iPhone 13 Pro packs plenty of power under the hood with a 120Hz display, excellent camera capabilities, tons of storage, and endless battery life.”

Apple's iPhone 13 Pro offers all the same great features for content creators as the larger Pro Max, its battery just doesn't last as long.

Excellent cameras, including improved zoom, Smooth 120Hz display, Long battery life

Shorter battery life than the iPhone 13 Pro Max

The iPhone 13 Pro is another highly competent Apple phone, with the most notable improvements coming in the camera department

ProMotion 120Hz OLED display, Decent battery life, Excellent set of cameras

A bit boring, Lens flare still an issue

The iPhone 13 Pro represents a major improvement over the iPhone 12 Pro. Sure, it retains a similar design, but with improvements to the display, battery, and camera, the phone is better where it matters.
