The iPhone 13 and 13 mini will soon be available in green while the 13 Pros will offer an alpine green option.
Only the Pros will adopt the new design this year, says Ross Young. The design is described as “pill + hole”, referring to the characteristic shape.
“Making an $800 phone doesn’t make sense for us at the moment,” said HMD’s Global Head of Product Marketing.
The quad cameras will be supported by the custom vivo V1 ISP chip and will have this configuration: wide, ultra wide, 2x tele and 10x hybrid.
The SE is actually faster than the Realme 9 Pro – 144 Hz display vs. 120 Hz, Snapdragon 778G vs. 695.
