I upgraded from a iPhone 6S Plus to a 13 Pro Max and for me it was night and day better. The cameras on the 6S Plus was nothing compared to my 13 Pro Max. 100% better low light and night mode shots and a usable macro camera. I could never go back to using my 6S Plus, the 13 Pro is so much nicer to use. To me the 6S Plus just feels ancient. I love having a all screen phone. Even the 13 Mini has just about the same size screen as my 6S Plus had, in a very small and light package. The battery life on my 13 Pro Max is insane. I am getting even better battery life in 15.2. I disagree that the iPhone is all about specs. Apple does not publish CPU frequency or even how much RAM is in the iPhone. And Apple is probably the last to still be using a 12 MP cameras. Is the iPhone 13 perfect, no. Perfect will be different for each person. Don’t want OLED, go for the iPhone 11 which is still being produced. Apple is offering something for almost every price point.
I actually had the 13 mini for a week. I was in the store yday returning it & I took the opportunity to compare it to others on the floor.

The battery was definitely miles better on the 13 mini but I have chargers everywhere and don't spend much time away from them so this is of no benefit to me. The screen size on the 13 mini is nowhere near that of the 6S Plus when u watch video or look at photos because u loose the top and bottom of the screen! Side by side these were actually smaller than on my standard 6S!! Yes the camera is much better if u're taking photos outside normal conditions and/or printing/viewing on 4k monitor. I took several photos at home on both phones, airdropped them to the other and couldn't tell which phone took what picture.

The only clear hands down without question "advantage" was the 13 did look slick & the 6S does look ancient. $1,300 for aesthetics? I'm not embarrassed when someone makes a comment & I have them take a photo of something I've just captured and have them compare it to my phone... which I've done several times now.

Last year there was a ton of controversy about yellowing of the displays and the colors being too warm. Apple must have listened to feedback because I just got my iPhone 13 Pro and I can confirm it doesn't have this problem. I tried the iPhone 12/12 Pro last year and it was always way warmer than my iPhone X. In comparison to the X, the iPhone 13 Pro is actually cooler this time around, but not too much so. This is with true tone enabled on every device. Apple must have done some calibrations or adjusted true tone because it's a big difference.
no its still looks warmer..i have iphone 13 pro max..i dint knew iphone has this fault before..but when i had other phone close to close..it shows a big difference..i manually set as best as i can...but still its not our job to do that..it should done by them when they are manufacturing it..really not satisfied
