Apple iPhone 13 Pro 9 Months Later - Was It Really PRO?
ฝัง

- Don't you just love Apple introduction videos? I know I do. It's thanks to one of them that I bought my first MacBook Pro in 2008, and I'm sure it's the main reason many of you do the same.
Thing is the iPhone 13 Pro was a pretty complicated launch because it took quite a few software updates for a lot of these features to reach your phone. Pro Res took a month, you couldn't switch Macro Mode off until December, and the same happened with all the iCloud improvements. Point is, it's become a common practice for this phone to ship incomplete, and even if you'll hear a lot at WWDC, all those improvements won't reach your phone officially until the fall.
I guess the biggest question is if it's really worth for anyone to pay extra and go pro, and after 9 months of using one, I think I have a pretty good idea. I'm Jaime Rivera with Pocketnow and let's dive in.

Am enjoying my 13 Pro. Have no qualms with the cameras, day and night. I do notice the difference between the 120 Hz refresh rate compared to the 13's 60. For me, it was worth the extra $$$.
Bro its damn noticeable.. 120 hz is far far better than 60 hz . Jus loving it 😍
True
@@Nothing-kr5hn gotta see 13 pro max, i also have a anti-shock case on mine it really feel like a brick
Agree! 💪🏻
Same here. I agree.
Pro motion alone is reason enough to get the pro over the regular 13, makes a massive difference in smoothness. Pros are also 25% brighter at 1000 nits vs 800 nits for the regular 13. Also better battery life on the pros.
According to Apple’s specs sheet.
Apple has really mastered the art of upselling. It's sad how "pro motion" is too aggressive with "downclocking" the refresh rate, so in real life, it feels only as smooth as a 90hz screen found on $200 budget Android phones. But obviously the Apple logo on the back of the phone is priceless for many...
I just need to text and call people and have a good battery life and just be a good phone. download apps. check email.
@@vivek_v 100 times this. Just downloaded an app for timing the refresh rate. Doesn’t go beyond hundred
@@vivek_v😂😂😂
I Love my 13 Pro, the camera is way better than the 13 and the 120 Hz refresh rate is well worth the upgrade.
I have come to enjoy the quality of your videos, how eloquent you are, and your videography is getting better all the time, the color and definition is amazing, how you are blending third party videos within your videos, it all comes together very nicely. You have become one of my favorite outlets for the tech news I like to consume to keep me up to date. God bless, que viva el Merengue! Amén.
I’ve had my iPhone 13 pro for 8 months now, and I love it. It feels great and more focusing, low power mode, and other awesome features.
I love how Neffex is being used in lots of tech videos nowadays, they're awesome and I'll also compliment the video, not really much of an iPhone user but I can always respect those who make that choice.
Jaime is a legend!
I got the pro for a few main reasons.
The camera.
The battery.
120hz display.
Sierra Blue.
Yes, it was well worth the money.
Same reasons but I got the pro max
I bought my 13pro for all the same reason you mentioned. 👍👍
Yup same here💯
Got my P6P fore the same reson. Except for the color and THE PRICE
@@alcylon yeah price is a major deciding factor. Best Buy had an amazing deal where they gave me $800 for my iPhone 12, so the 13 pro was only $400 out of pocket. Not cheap, but great for a pro.
The Sierra blue is such a pretty color and I do not care if my sister calls it a hospital gown.
I’m down for alpine green and gold if I get pro. Maybe Sierra blue but lately it’s been selling out in my area!
But for regular 13 I love the product red, it’s gorgeous.
If anything, that goddamm introduction video is amazing. Apple does those right all the time. The 12 Pro and 13 Pro videos are absolutely masterful.
I will be getting 13proMax in two months from now (during the festive sale in India)
I am commenting because I realised you are a fellow Barca fan (supporting since 2006)
Thank you for this detailed video!
I do agree that the 13 would serve most people fine. I only got the 13 Pro as a way of futureproofing. The additional RAM (6 GB), ProMotion (feels silly spending hundreds and not getting the high refresh rate), and the added versatility in the cameras mean I will keep my phone for at least 4 years.
i love my 13 pro. i upgraded from the Xr to the 13 pro in december and i’ve been in LOVE since then.
Congratulations 🎊 did you feel the size difference? 13 pro smaller than xr right? 😭 So confused between upgrading from xr to 13 pro or 13pm
@@nawarakhatib275 yes there was a notable difference but i got used to it in a matter of time. it honestly feels the same after a couple days. and the space beside the notch is greater than the space beside it on the Xr so i feel like that made up for the smaller footprint.
Thank you for helping me to take a decision 😄
I love my 13 Pro Max, the refresh rate is insane. I would be fine paying extra for the 120Hz + bigger phone.. A lot of people hate on bigger phones cause they have to use 2 hands… they make a mini for you type of people.
I love my 13 Pro. The better display, zoom lens, and smaller size are great for me.
Just got my 13 pro a month ago n I'm very impressed with it. This review was great
Same here. I got my 13pro a month ago. And i love the buttery smooth 120hz display
Better that 12 pro max?
@@jamiepenney3720 yes
@@nhlalomakhathini9795 thanks, I have the 12 pro max, thinking of getting the 13 pro max.
Love my 13 pro max for the battery life alone
Man , your videos are so unbiased, I really like it. Keep it up 👌
So unbiased?😂😂😂😂
He is always completely biased to Samsung and he knows it😂😂😂😂😂😂😂💔
Got my 13 pro max and I can tell it just changed my life! Super super battery life, day and a half! Super smooth.. love 🍏
Have the 13 and have extensively had comparison with a 13 pro. Unless you have need for better cameras then the 13 is more than enough for most people. Great phone.
Only reason i got the 13 pro was the telephoto, better screen and battery life. In a perfect world, i wish the 13 pro was available in the 13’s deeper blue, but sierra blue is nice too
Note: The Cinematic mode on the 13 Pro & Pro Max was originally locked to Dolby Vision HDR. Some time later in a software update, Cinematic mode now supports SDR video (finally!).
I just bought a 13pro sierra blue. Very happy with this phone. 120hz and cameras are great.
Sometimes i wish i would have bought the max, but the wight and size was a bit much.
Yeah I find the regular Pro to be heavy enough as is. Curious if that monster battery life would have been worth the trade off.
That Camp Nou shot ...👌 Legit !! Thanks.
Precise and educative content 👌😌✨
I had it and hated the inconsistencies between app menus and it was so large and heavy (13 pro max). Very difficult to handle compared to my note 20 Ultra.
Forever respect for having a photo of you at Camp Nou in the review 😍😍
Good job guys 👏
i fine the max too big/heavy and the standard iPhone screen is too small. they should make a 6.4 inch, that would be the sweet spot.
6:59 I noticed an error. This video incorrectly stated the iPhone 13 Pro has a 2 megapixel telephoto camera. Actually, all three cameras on the 13 Pro are 12 megapixels.
No i think 1 MP is right
Thanks for that dude. Clearly a long night editing. Of course 12 is the number.
For work use only (no social media) does the ProMotion make a real difference? I'm reading and replying emails 80% of the time, 10% browsing internet and 10% phone calls. Does it make a real difference in reading?
This phone is one of those things you use everyday and you don’t stress about because you know it will perform and will not randomly crash an app it’s the smoothest and most relaxing experience. That’s what you want from something you use everyday, reliability and lack of stress
Quite pleased with my 13 Pro. I really like the cameras and the battery life is quite good. Yes, it's a bit heavy but I can live with it. The 6.1" screen is just about right though, I think 5.8 would have been perfect. The race to make the best cameras on phones has, IMO, gotten ridiculous. There's only so much you can do with the limited space. The longevity of support is what sets apple apart. Should I choose, this phone will last me for the next 5 years or more. That's pretty sweet.
True! 💪🏻
@@hilmidoubleten You're not wrong. But the average person only keeps their phone for 2 years.
@@Cup_of_Joe13 wrong
I intent to have it at least 8 years, which is as long as I had my 4S…
Anyway, how’s the camera doing in bad light conditions, please?
@@ulalaFrugilega The Pro does quite well in low light as well as almost no light. I'm rather impressed with how far night photo's have progressed on Apple as well as some Android phones. I have a few shots I took while out on a walk at 0330 where there were no streetlights, only starlight. I took some shots of a few big tress and they're pretty good.
I used the XS now I’ve upgraded to 13 pro the only difference ive noticed so far was games loads faster and camera is overall great and the audio quality is perfect only thing that i didn’t like was the phone is way too heavy and can’t be used one handed properly
@pocketnow where can I download some of those pictures you took? They look great!
Coming from Android for like all my life, got the 13 Pro Max. It’s impressive so far, I miss certain features from my Samsung but apps seems to be better optimized for iPhones which is annoying for android users. Either way it’s a good phone for what I need it for.
The newest Samsung flagships are much better optimized for social media apps than previous generations, so that removes a key selling point of the iPhone.
@@vivek_v not really. I’ve been with Samsung since the S3, just two weeks ago I traded in my S21 ultra for the iPhone 13 pro max, it’s insane how the apps are better optimized for iPhones.. coming from the android side, this phone is very impressive, especially on the battery side.
@@vivek_v Android apps are not optimized for any Android phone specifically but for screen sizes. Where as on iPhones, iOS apps are specifically made to run on different models of iPhones. So yes, iOS apps are much better optimized for their specific devices. Also I really hate Android phones force feeding you bloatware, disgusts me really.
I had the iPhone 12 Pro but my battery health when down to 93% after only 11 months of use that’s why decided to get the iPhone 13 pro max because of the amazing battery life and my battery health on iPhone 13 pro max is still at 100% 😎
The best iPhone that I've ever used😍😍😍
should I buy one or wait till they’re cheaper when the iphone 14 comes out?
Got a 13 pro max a month ago it really is a great phone and not in a hurry for the 14
Maybe they lock features being updates to make jailbreaking harder, as well as buying some more time to polish things up
I think I need to upgrade my phone now. I still have an iPhone SE from 2016 and as much as I want a 13 I think I’ll hold on for the 14
I bought a used 13 pro max a month ago in alpine green 256gb for $750. Best deal ever! Oh and it still has a 100% battery health and it only had 12 battery cycles. Oh and it came with Apple Care + Theft and loss which is $279. The guy said he only had it close to 2 months but didn’t like it and decided to go back to Samsung and got an s22 ultra. Battery life is insane! Love this phone.
Just got my 13 Pro Max 2 days ago. Went from an 11 and it is such a difference. Bigger and better screen. Battery life that won't quit and a wonderful screen and great cameras. I am verrry excite!
Hi there. I’m still contemplating… could you tell me how good the camera is for video in normal inside light situations and maybe darker corners? Have the 8 now, which sadly s**** at it.
@@ulalaFrugilega The cameras are great at anything. Maybe there are better, but they’re Android. 😀
The only thing that would persuade me to get the pro, is the 6Gb of RAM (not interested in the other features). Somehow, I don't think the 4Gb in the regular 13 are going to be ideal 2 years down the road...
I have the 13 pro max and I completely agree with all you said on this video. The only reason I have it is just because I absolutely love this phone. It’s amazing. Do I need it? No. Mano glad I got it. Without a shadow of a doubt.
Cool video, do you think i should buy 13 pro now? I would upgrade from iPhone xr:)
I currently use an iPhone XS, but I'm planning to get an iPhone 14 Pro in the new year!
Secondo te mi conviene comprare iPhone 11 Pro e tenerlo per 2-3 anni oppure aspettare l’uscita del 14 per prendermi il 12?
Most of the features 13 pro came with could be included in 11 pro itself except better chip architecture or colour science.
Like- Battery life, smaller notch, higher mega-pixel count.
The 11 pro doesn’t have enough ram an the videos features uses the graphics core on the new processor
Iphone 11pro and 13pro. No comparison. 13pro is amazing.
@@paulrodriguez7760 Except for the fact that they are shockingly similar...
Agree
I've had trouble with my iPhone 13 pro camera and I don't know if its "normal" or not--I'll set up a shot of say a butterfly on a flower, focus, get ready to take the shot ; then it seems it switches lenses and all of a sudden I'm look at something at a completely. different angle and frame. 🤷🏻♀️ I reframe again, and it flips again. Meanwhile butterfly has flown away. Is this normal or is something wrong with my phone? My "Notes" also periodically disappear... I have a horrible time taking photos now that I didn't have with my iPhone 10. Thanks for any opinions.
Considering that the 14 pro has severe shaking and noise issues in their cameras, I’ll stick with the 13 pro
The main reason for me to go Pro is it lasts longer than the normal 13. I always swap phones after 3+ years, and I can be sure with iPhones that the pro model will be pretty smooth experience even then. That can’t be necessarily said for the non-pro model.
And the king of notch 🔥🔥👍🏼👍🏼
I’ve enjoyed my 13 Pro Max so far.
One of the hottest takes was that you didn’t notice the 120 hertz and then noticed that you didn’t use it during your demos. Damn.
I like pro because promotion display, it s a big difference in the user experience
Should I get the 13 pro max now or wait foe thw iphone 14 pro.max?
I love my iphone 13 pro max it does everything i need, last for a day and good screen for media
Nice video
On your video you are wearing 2 watchs , beside the Apple Watch what are you wearing for your Android phone I guess ?
I’m enjoying my iPhone 13 Pro Max 256 GB Pine Green (still have the regular 1Phone 13 Pro 256 GB in white/silver as well). I also carry the Galaxy S 22 Ultra as a spare. I don’t regret switching my primary functions to iPhone. I may also be alone in this, but I’ve recently started using Apple Maps the last few months and I’m honestly surprised that I’m enjoying it more than google maps. Both iOS and Android have their strengths and weaknesses, but for me iOS fits better into my workflow and lifestyle overall.
I noticed the improvement with Apple Maps as well. I tried the s22 ultra for a month and came back to my iPhone 13 mini lol. The s22 ultra was amazing but the iPhone just worked better. Not sure how else to explain it.
Thank you Jaime. Great video. The display is too small for me. I want the 14 Pro Max in Purple. 💜
Apple might bring back purple to iPhone 14 series
I take all phones with a grain of salt at the end of the day. The last phone I had was the 12 that I got for free through a T-Mobile trade in and switch deal but then the phone ended up dying recently. I went with the 13 pro mainly because I don't plan on getting another for as long as I can make it. I got the pro so all 3 lenses will give the most versatility throughout time, hopefully more processing will help it last longer, and hopefully a larger battery will help it last a bit more over more time. With applecare, I plan on replacing the battery when it slows, if the screen breaks I've never gotten a whole new device instead of replacing the screen (the last screen I broke was my XS 2 years ago and I replaced the screen myself) but I say everyone should just get what they get for them. Get what you like the most, can afford the most and will be most useful for yourself cuz one great aspect of technology is the versatility and personalisation options
I have the pro should i upgrade the max? Or wait the 14 max
This was my first iPhone and with this purchase I've sealed myself completely into the amazing walled gardens of Apple. It all started with the M1 mac due to its amazing battery life and overall performance. Compact phones are the need of the hours and 13 pro DELIVERS- My one plus 8 pro literally gave me hand fatigue and I've large hands, mind you. Android truly sucks overall- the convenience/freedom/flexibility it offers is rather superficial. Apple may be limited in certain ways but the note worthy features it offers actually make a difference in the quality of your life. It's remarkably reliable overall.
13 Pro QUESTION:
Would you happen to know if there's any way to fix the telephoto lens shots, which are all way over-processed for me on the 13 pro?
Even in perfect sunny daylight conditions?
All the filters are off, everything is standard, the zoom is native (not x15 or anything) - and everything still looks almost like a watercolor effect in photoshop...
These photos look like they could easily be from 10-15 years ago. I'm at a loss :(
There isn't. You can't even change any HDR photo settings. Get yourself a pixel as the cameras crush the iPhones. Maybe the 14 pro with newer camera tech will improve what are bang average cameras.
I hope the 14 pro is as good as the 13 pro that Jaime described. I love my iPhone XS and it has been a trooper. I did try the iPhone 13 for a few days and the changes to me were apparent but I wasn’t ready to give up the XS. We will see what the 14 brings this fall :)
I will wait for the 15 just to get a good deal on 12pm or 13 pro...but I don't know what to choose,13pm will still be too expensive
True talk 👍
I feel a deeper/greater divide between the standard and pro smartphones would lead to people accusing Apple of paywalling their best features to force you into buying a pro. It almost needs to be same-same but different like vehicle trim levels.
I didn't pony up for the extra storage on this model because I could tell from the get-go that the video mode advertised was a gimmick. All in all, the phone is really good though.
Great vid as usual.
The million$ question is would you purchase the iPhone14 Max or the iPhone14 Pro Max?
I know. I know. Wait for the video to come out 🤣
🤣🤣 yes
Am I better off waiting for the next iPhone in September or should I just purchase the 13pro now? I currently have the xs max and my storage is pretty much full
I’m wondering how hard with the 14 iPhone be to get or how long you will have to wait for a iphone 14 in after it’s release. I heard that production has been cut by 10%. There is still a cut shortage too.
If the 13 Mini had the same 6 GB of RAM that the Pro models have, I would have upgraded to that over my 12 Pro (yes I know, it seems like it would have been a waste) because it would have made one-handed use much easier for me as I have to shift my right hand around every so often to reach my thumb across the screen from top to bottom. The camera and screen specs I could care less about, but the Mini only getting 4 GB was just a sign for me to stick with my 12 Pro for longevity sake. Larger phones make for great viewing and interactive experiences, but somewhat difficult ease of use, at least for my smallish hands.
Honestly in real life use I cant even see any diff betwren my 13 mini and my wife's 13 pro. Dont make that 2gb ram diff a deal breaker. It really doesn't make sense
I’ve been using 12 Mini and not considering to upgrade this year. Let’s see what 15 Pro brings for us. Mini is perfect in size to use a phone. I’m in shock that it failed selling as much as other variants.
@@microvizart In my personal experience I disagree. Apps can stay in my tabs longer and wont shut down right away which is handy.
Battery is amazing
I think my 13 pro will age gracefully with time. It’s quite likely you won’t see much of a difference between the 13 and the next few pro models for the next few years.
Lmao this did not age well
@@msnu1455 I mean Dyanamic Island, Crash Detection, Satellite thingy, Camera imrpovement (not leaps and bounds like from 12 series to 13 series) it doesn''t seem to be a drastic improvement. OP is correct. Well if one has got money at their disposal then by all means they can purchase. But for people like me I think I will hold on to my 13PM for a long time. I went from XR to 13PM so that should tell you XD
I upgraded from 12 pro max to 13 pro max sierra blue OMG I have zero regrets. The Cameras, the display, and the battery life are the BEST in my opinion.
The point is I love this Phone!.
Waiting for 14. My first IPhone.
I have from Bangladesh. In Bangladesh iphone 13 pro max user has getting display issue. Without any damage. It's automatically. Can anyone explain about this?
To be honest, I debated this for a few days before the pre order. 120 Hz sold me. Otherwise would’ve been more than happy with the 13.
space the final fronter to Boldy phone were no one went before
i have to ask did you click that circle thing during night shots? 'cuase if u did'nt shutter speed is for normal shots only.
LoL.. circle thing huh? 😉
Damn nice soundtrack, what’s the name?
Why do you not use apple maps?
Jaime ❤️
I’m interested in battery life so this time I’ll go for the 14 pro max
Can we talk about how I’m on my second replacement from apple and there’s just problems with the iPhone 13 pro max (camera, microphones, display flickering) list goes on…. Im fighting with them for them to do something about it!
Sounds like just some bad luck to me and it happens. Keep pushing and you should get a solid replacement device.
It’s you.
@@davidjacobs6244 it’s me? Care to explain?
@@Andy1341000 first one had the flickering of the green tint on display and then it ended by saying no SIM card indefinitely so they swapped it, now this one has a hard time with microphones and camera goes black or very very low quality and same issue with the display, the display is a common problem even from the iPhone 12 and slot of my friends have the same issue
Yeah it's definitely just bad luck on your part. It's not like my Pixel 6 Pro which a majority of users experience bugs. I agree with the comment above, just get a replacement.
As an S22 Ultra user, I plan on keeping this for a while UNLESS Samsung does something incredible that we don't see coming with the next phones.
@Carl Gunderson I upgraded from the S20 Plus to the S22 Ultra. I noticed quite a bit of difference, especially in terms of speed and a bigger, and brighter display. I'd hang on to your S20 until the S23 comes out. Perhaps it'll be a whole new design with a new chip with a lightning fast processor?
Same here..... I am an S22 Ultra user who almost got an iPhone 13 Pro because of out of this world ADs from Apple. But I am very happy with the Samsung S22U.
@@NetITGeeks My ONLY issue with the S22 Ultra is the battery. I wish it was a tiny bit better, but there's a lot of power in this phone, and I have it on 120 Hz. So it's fine.
Unnatural photos in some cases sky grass, landscapes
6 months, changed my life! Best phone ever! Perfect quality 24/7
Can you please tell me how is video quality in bad light condition?
@@ulalaFrugilega Never put me down! It’s a very good phone!!
Sir, you are correct, I got the pro because of the three cameras look cool 😎
Waiting for mine in the mail 👀
I briefly had an s22 ultra & loved it’s fabulous 10x optical zoom & superb 6.8 inch display but it suffered badly from bad call quality so it was back to iPhone for me and switched to 13 pro max. Superb crystal clear call quality, good display (but not in s22 ultra league) and battery life that ls much much better than the S22 ultra. But how I miss the 10x optical zoom. Hopefully iPhone 15 🤞
Well if you were still on the s22 ultra you would miss the much better video quality on the ip 13 pro max which completely destroys the ultra
A better video quality is better than a better zoom for most of the ppl
I used both phones too
And i never zoom beyond 3x
Does the phone heat up while using the camera for photos and videos?
no
Hi , please review iPhone 13 and 13 mini
100%
But what we are really waiting to see
Is the iPhone 14 Pro models
The Pro models will become more mature once iOS 16 and its new software rolls out. It will be able to take full advantage of all the Pro features...and make the investment all the more worth it.
Will it improve photography because a 50 quid second hand pixel 3 produces better daytime shots?
@@rcbmulder Ur answer is totally unrelated. Comparing the Pro to a 50 quid Pixel! 😂
Just because u can't afford it, it doesn't mean u prop ur budget phone against a flagship one. 😂 There is a reason why the iPhone 13 Pro has the best camera and the Pixel doesn't. The Pixel is neat, but inconsistent and unreliable.
@@rcbmulder And daytime shots alone don't make a phone's camera good. If u take only daytime shots, then u are in the minority. Night photography is what makes a phone's camera standout. And the one which most people value these days.
A 50 quid Pixel 3's night photos are like flashing a torch on the subject! 😂 Says everything......
@@happyhuman247 the problem with fanboys is they're only restricting themselves. The pixel 3 comparison is totally relevant. However, if you'd prefer something more relevant, compare the pixel 6 pro to the iphone 13 pro/max ,(which still costs over a grand btw) . Daytime AND night time shots are better on the pixel, there is more detail, better HDR and less crushed blacks from the pixel 6 pro. I had both phones so did my own tests rather than accepting everything the adverts claim.
i tried a 13 and the 60hz screen was a deal breaker for me but everything else was pretty fine, i can only imagine how much better the pro is.
Is this for real? 90% of your content isn’t more than 60hz. Video usually streams at 30fps, games unless the graphics are super simple run at 60fps, 30 if the graphics are intense.
The only time your screen does 120hz is when you scroll through icons and maybe your Twitter feed?
The refresh rate is way low on my priority.
@@sloppynyuszi yes, navigation though the UI at 60hz sucks :)
@@willian4428 honestly, people need to have real problems. Screen refresh rates are the least innovative parts of tech.
@@sloppynyuszi but do We have to buy 60hz display now in 2022-23? Apple wants to sell Iphone 14 Max for almost 900 dollars/pounds with 60hz display, make me laugh.
