Ming-Chi Kuo: iPhone 13 with 128GB to 1TB of storage

The analyst who is very often correct with his forecasts Ming-Chi Kuo released new information on the iPhone 13, the Apple Watch Series 7 and the AirPods 3 at the weekend. That fits very well, because tomorrow Apple will most likely present precisely those devices as part of the traditional September keynote. I found it particularly interesting that the new iPhone models in the 13 series should no longer offer a 64GB option. If you take a lot of photos and videos, want to use the entire music library offline and also install numerous apps, you won't be able to do anything with 64GB anyway. The storage option of 1 terabyte should also be added. 

New memory sizes for iPhone 13 (mini / Pro / Pro Max): 128GB to 1TB

According to Kuo, the Apple iPhone 13 mini and the next larger model, the Apple iPhone 13, will be offered with three storage sizes: 128 GB, 256 GB and 512 GB. For comparison: the Apple iPhone 12 mini and the Apple iPhone 12 from 2020 were available with 64GB, 128GB or 256GB. The information on the Pro models of the smartphones expected for tomorrow is also of interest to many. There should be a choice between 128 GB, 256 GB, 512 GB and 1 TB. Last year there were only the first three options for the Pro models of the 12 series. In addition to the memory sizes, Kuo also provides further information on the new Apple devices.

Information on delivery bottlenecks and the AirPods range

More information from Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, which you can find at 9to5Mac in a Summary finds, revolve around the availability of the upcoming devices. Since individual components for the iPhone 13 were more difficult to get, there could be bottlenecks (at least initially). Nevertheless, higher sales than the iPhone 12 in the previous year are expected. Regarding the AirPods 3, it also states that they will be available alongside the AirPods 2. The AirPods 2 should continue to be offered to offer an alternative to the newly designed AirPods 3. We'll see tomorrow whether this all comes true ...

Date confirmed: Apple September keynote on September 14, 2021
