There had been a few modifications of iPhones to accommodate USB-C functionality and a few other features. While a few of these innovations have gotten the needed traction, many had been a complete flop. A Chinese creator spotted originally on Douyin (TikTok elsewhere) has just been added to the list of tech geeks who have provided some modifications to the Apple iPhone. He built a custom iPhone 13 Pro Max that now has a USB-C port, a 3.5mm headphone input, a larger battery, and dual cooling fans.

Recently, the story surfaced of a YouTuber who added a USB-C port to the iPhone X although little was known about how successful this was. The modified iPhone 13 Pro Max is quite thicker than the original model, hence the additional Ultra acronym in its name. It has an additional battery, two cooling fans, and the aforementioned USB port and audio jack. The additional battery doubles the overall battery life of the device while a better performance was also recorded in the AnTuTu benchmarks. This is probably due to the improved cooling system in the device, thus allowing the installed chipset to perform optimally.

We could say that this improved design of the iPhone 13 Pro Max could be further finetuned to smoothen the rough edges. That notwithstanding, the model is a remarkable creation by the owners. It will be difficult for individual iPhone 13 Pro Max owners to replicate the feat by the owners of this design but demand for the technology could drive the development and scaling of this innovation. For now, there has been no official statement by Apple on the matter.

The post iPhone 13 Pro Max with USB-C, 3.5mm jack, bigger battery, & dual cooling fans surfaces appeared first on Gizmochina.

At the Time Flies event in September, Apple only unveiled new tablets (iPad Air 4th Generation & iPad 8th Generation) and smartwatches (Apple Watch Series 6 & Apple Watch SE). The Cupertino-based tech giant is yet to announce the iPhone 12 series. In fact, the company is yet to even reveal the date for its launch event. Ahead of it, a massive report on iPhone 13 and iPhone SE 3 has come up.

The information about the upcoming iPhone 13 and iPhone SE 3 was shared by Ross Young of DSCC (Display Supply Chain Consultants) on Twitter. These details come from his company as well as Mizuho Securities.

Apple iPhone 13 Specifications

According to Ross’s tweets and a shared image, the iPhone 13 models will come with same-sized displays like the iPhone 12 devices. Also, all four phones in the forthcoming series will have integrated touch (Y-Octa) panels. The exact sizes of their panels are as listed below.

• iPhone 13 – 5.42-inch
• iPhone 13 – 6.06-inch
• iPhone 13 Pro – 6.06-inch
• iPhone 13 Pro Max – 6.67-inch

Though all the models will have OLED panels, their suppliers will be different. For instance, SDC (Samsung Display Co., Ltd.) will be supplying panels for Pro Max as well as the smaller model, which could be called as Mini.

Whereas, LGD (LG Display) will be providing panels for all the models except the top variant. Lastly, BOE will be supplying panels for the Pro and standard iPhone 13.

Further, all of them will come with ProMotion technology (high refresh rate) but only the Pro Max model will feature LTPO for variable refresh rate like the Galaxy Note20 Ultra.

As for cameras, the regular iPhone 13 models (5.4”/6.1”) will come equipped with a dual-camera setup. The 1.7µm primary sensor on these devices will be the same one that will be debuting in iPhone 12 Pro Max.

On the other hand, the two Pro models will be featuring a triple camera setup with an upgraded 1.9µm primary senor with SensorShift. These iPhones will also have ToF camera.

Lastly, all the four iPhone 13 series handsets will come with Face ID and therefore, we can also expect them to feature notch once again. Also, although all of them will be 5G-ready, only the Pro models will have support for mmWave.

Apple iPhone SE 3 Specifications

Apart from iPhone 13, the specs of iPhone SE 3 has also emerged. According to the report, this phone will be releasing in Spring 2022 and not next year.  It will sport a larger 6.06-inch in-cell LCD panel supplied by either Sharp or JDI, compared to the smaller 4.7-inch screen on the current-gen model.

Further, it will arrive with the same dual-camera setup as found on the iPhone 11. That means it will feature a 1.4µm primary sensor. Since it will be launching almost after one and a half years, it will include support for 5G but only sub-6GHz like the regular iPhone 12 and iPhone 13 models.

Most interestingly, it will come equipped with Touch ID (fingerprint sensor). We expect it to be either side or top mounted like the new iPad Air. Above all, it could be the first Apple iPhone with a full-screen display without a notch (speculation from our end).
