Talking about the advancements in battery performance, the report revealed that the upcoming iPhone is expected to sport an all-new flexible charging circuit board that would come along with a System-in-Package to allow a little more space on the inside, allowing Apple to add a larger battery pack.
The newer A15 Bionic chip is also expected to be based on a 5 nanometre+ node that could enable better performance along with additional battery efficiency compared to the A14 on the existing iPhone 12.
Better 5G connectivity is expected through millimetre wave (mmWave). Previous leaks have already hinted at an upgraded display with hints at a high refresh rate screen as well as advancements in the camera hardware, particularly with the 13 Pro that will sport an improved wide-angle lens.

In terms of pricing of the new iPhones, Trendforce is of the belief that it would remain in the same line as the iPhone 12 series. The firm said in a statement, ¡°As for retail prices, the iPhone 13 series is expected to remain similar to the iPhone 12 series assuming Apple is able to effectively control manufacturing costs, since the latest models do not come with significant hardware upgrades. As a result of this aggressive pricing scheme, iPhone shipment will likely maintain its growth trajectory for two consecutive years.¡±
