I think Apple will stick to their typical profit margin on hardware like iPhone. 38% or 42% - somewhere in there.
We get what we pay for - no tricks or price gouging.
I hear tons of people talking about “inflation” all the time - but Apple as a company is run like a extremely tight ship. I heard that they bought 75% of TSM semiconductor output out till like 2024 - probably at an agreed to price. Apple’s good biz management is saving us money.
Go try to buy a Mercedes with a V-8 in it next year or a Porsche 992 911 these days - semiconductor shortages are driving the price of these cars up. But what about your new iPhone 13? Again, be thankful Apple company is run so well.
My iPhone X had 256, My iPhone 11 had 512. My iPhone 12 has 128 and so will my iPhone 13. I'm a fairly heavy phone user and I've never needed more than 128. 64Gb was stretching it even back in the day, but with everything in the cloud these days local storage just isn't as needed.
Not sure if you thought I was joking…
But it’s a real thing

Ah!
Since I'm currently on 14.x.y, that's probably why I had a good laugh (to no detriment on your part, mind)
Siri and I have (mutually) decided to not share apartments <smile>

Prores on the iPhone, that’s why some of us need 1tb. And it’s gonna beautiful. I have my doubts about the supposed portrait mode for video (since others have tried and failed miserably the past few years), but Prores on the phone will be awesome, so many more professional adopters coming.
I do since I like to record in 4k with my Sony A6400 and save to my Iphone using a lightning cable to SD card adapter. technically I do this with my Ipad pro 11 which is only 256gb but I need this 1tb for that instant save to phone and let it upload to icloud
Looks like many are looking forward to recording 4K Prores videos of their cat, house plants and door dash meals.
Meh, show me a redesigned phone. Forget all these minuscule changes. Not enough to make people upgrade.
Don’t get me wrong, people WILL upgrade “just because” but don’t you guys think it’s time for a refresh? Sick of buying the “same phone” with camera upgrades and a “faster chip” inside.

Same here. I purchased my iPhone X ( 256gb ) with the intention loading it with music files but never really used it for that purpose, and with the streaming service I use just content to download a few albums when desired so not using the memory to it's full potential. My next phone will be 128gb max as that is all I will need. Also agree with your comments regarding memory cards as they give you the option to upgrade storage cheaply when required but sadly Apple has and never will follow this path. Cannot see myself upgrading soon though as all new phones seem to concentrate on enhanced camera functions that I would not use.
Perhaps for George Dawes' collection of match three games, however for videographers shooting in 4K/60fps it may prove to be a useful size.
"You didn’t mention the codec you’d shoot with, so I chose one. For UHD (3840x2160) at 60 fps ProRes HQ and 2-channels of 48kHz 24-bit audio using the max storage of 256GB in an iPhone X would give you around 19 minutes. Cinema 4K (4096x2160) would be a minute or so less. You’d achieve increased record time by choosing a codec with a lesser data rate and/or 30 fps." - via
I don’t see how more people, who are buying the iPhone 13 for the astronomical price it’s selling at aren’t on this train with you.
Why get a new pro who’s main real upgrade is the camera - but turn the features on and you get 19 minutes of recording. This is just hilarious to me that a crowd that considers function and design above all else, at whatever cost, a non issue.
it’s not really hard to believe when android phones could buy a official 1tb micro sd card , especially samsung which technically has samsung dex a literal linux computer when you connect it to a tv
The iPhone just got redesigned.
The target market of every new iPhone is not the previous generation owners, but the 2, 3, or more generation older owners. The iPhone 13 might not be a significant upgrade for 12 owners, but it's definitely a big upgrade for X, 8, 7/older iPhone owners (5G, new design, night mode, etc).
Every year, it's shown that more and more people are keeping their phones longer (thus Apple's focus for services and longer OS support).
For you, you can wait for the Titanium iPhone next year (maybe). Or you can opt for mid-low-range Android where they change their back colors and design every 6 month (while the internals are pretty much the same year by year) if you like having different looking phones every year.
