As per usual, Apple has been pretty much silent leading up to the release of their newest flagship smartphone series, keeping tech geeks and Apple loyalists all over the world guessing. Luckily, the period right before a new iPhone release is also when industry experts and Apple insiders can really shine. The Internet is a trove of possible device leaks, rumors, and speculations all about the upcoming iPhone lineup. While nothing has been officially confirmed or revealed by Apple, it sure is exciting to imagine the possibilities! Below, we list all the leaks and rumors about the soon-to-be-released iPhone 13 series that most experts seem to agree on.


Here are all the features and specs tech insiders are expecting from the upcoming iPhone 13 series:​

This theory makes even more sense when you consider that experts are expecting the so-called iPhone 13 series will have many similarities to its predecessor including available models and their sizes.
