iPhone 13 will reportedly have 120Hz screens
Also, iPhone SE 3 launching in 2022
Despite the notable lack of iPhone 12 news, analysts have already moved forward towards the iPhone 13. Even before the launch this year’s iPhone series, a report has swiftly divulged some rumored details about next year’s iPhone. For one, the iPhone 13 will reportedly have 120Hz screens.
According to analyst Ross Young, all four iPhone models next year will finally ship with a much awaited 120Hz display. Analysts have previously speculated on the 120Hz display’s arrival in the iPhone 12 this year. However, reported supply problems (and likely, the increasing production costs of 5G hardware) have pushed the feature to future models.
Besides the upgraded screens, the iPhone 13 series will all come with 5G compatibility — with both Pro models shipping with mmWave and sub-6GHz technologies. This is no surprise since this year’s iPhone 12 will reportedly debut with 5G compatibility.
Further, the two starting iPhone 13 models will launch with the iPhone 12 Pro Max’s rear camera combination, an already expected trend going forward. Meanwhile, the two Pro models will have a higher 1.9µm triple rear camera combo and a ToF sensor.
In other news, the analyst’s report also states that the third iPhone SE will launch during the spring of 2022. Earlier this year, Apple resurrected the iPhone SE lineup with a sequel to the original model.
Of course, early iPhone 13 reports should be taken with a grain of salt. The iPhone 12 hasn’t even launched yet. Certainly, a lot of things can still change between now and next year’s iPhone launch window.

The iPhone 18 might sell out for an unexpected reason
The ongoing shortage might play a part in the phone selling out earlier than expected.
An iPhone selling out is not news. Because of how popular the phones are, it’s within the realm of probability that Apple runs out of stock at some point. According to a new report, this year won’t be any different… but it’s for an entirely different reason.
First reported by analyst Tim Culpan, Apple is reportedly struggling to meet its demand for semiconductors for the iPhone 18 and the foldable iPhone. The ongoing memory shortage is cutting off Apple’s ability to deliver the required supply of smartphones in a timely fashion. The report even claims that TSMC, which helps produce the iPhone, is sitting on a shipment of processors, worth US$ 1 billion, that don’t have memory chips.
Now, Apple is still confident that it can weather the launch. However, if the shortage persists, the iPhone 18 generation will likely sell out much more quickly than expected.
It’s an interesting time for Apple to experience such a shortage. It’s been heavily rumored that the company will launch its very first foldable phone next month, creating a new market for the brand. Apple definitely wants this attempt to succeed after the tepid response to its last new product, the Vision Pro.
