iPhone 13 predicted to skip 1TB model, keep current prices

The iPhone 13 series is set to introduce several big upgrades including Touch ID, a smaller notch, and improved cameras. Rumors had pointed to a 1TB model too, but a report suggests that might no longer be happening.

There might not be a 1TB iPhone 13 Pro after all

Research firm TrendForce expects Apple’s iPhone 13 and iPhone 13 Pro to retain the same storage configurations as the current iPhone 12 line. The news means that there might not be a 1TB iPhone 13 Pro model.

You can expect the following iPhone 13 variants:

64GB iPhone 13 mini
128GB iPhone 13 mini
256GB iPhone 13 mini
64GB iPhone 13
128GB iPhone 13
256GB iPhone 13

The following iPhone 13 Pro models are expected:

128GB iPhone 13 Pro
256GB iPhone 13 Pro
512GB iPhone 13 Pro
128GB iPhone 13 Pro Max
256GB iPhone 13 Pro Max
512GB iPhone 13 Pro Max

Apple's expected to keep the current iPhone pricing structure

The lack of plans for a 1TB iPhone might disappoint some power users, but there is some good news buried in the report — TrendForce expects Apple to keep the current iPhone pricing structure for another year.

That means the iPhone 13 series should be priced as follows:

iPhone 13 mini — starting at $699
iPhone 13 — starting at $799
iPhone 13 Pro — starting at $999
iPhone 13 Pro Max — starting at $1,099

Everything listed above is, of course, a prediction at this point. Take everything with a pinch of salt because it’s almost impossible to accurately predict every aspect of Apple’s iPhone launches. Nevertheless, TrendForce has accurately predicted iPhone plans in the past and this report could give us a good idea of what's in the works.
