I highly doubt that the new iPhone will be called by Apple iPhone 13,when in the USA 13 is a number that it's very bad luck. And Americans are very superstitious.
If we look a little bit, Apple is a company full of symbolism. The iPhone purple, they have done it in homage to Steve Jobs, they did not call it iPhone 11s, being the one that would really correspond to him, because of the terrorist attacks the twin towers. So I'm pretty sure the next one will be iPhone 12s, not 13.
Rumors of the new iPhone 12s:
Most Apple analysts say the new iPhone will have Always on display . Always-on screen, like the Apple Watch 5 and 6 have. Very interesting to see your notifications from any angle.
The Notch will be smaller, although you already know that I don't care about that. It does nothing for me. Big or small I like it.
Smaller Notch
They say that the refresh rate, finally for many, will be 120 Hz. In the iPhone it's not something that matters much, really. Everything is so fluid. I've tried it on an Android and on those types of phones it makes sense, but iPhones are extremely fluid phones, if you're not a gamer it doesn't make sense, really.
They say that the new iPhone will have portrait video mode. That, for content creators, will give them life.
TouchID on the screen, finally. That is important, really. We have been living with a mask for a year and TouchID is essential. We spend the day entering the code and I have not paid for it. Also the iPad Air 4 has it and not in such complicated technology Let's be honest, the unlock phone with the clock thing is very good, for My I have a watch, but for you who don't, every time you enter the code you remember Tim Cook and his family. I understand you!! I do but don't tell anyone. Either you use Apple Pay on the watch or it asks you for the unlock code.
According to rumors, all iPhone 12s, will have LiDAR . Something that only Pros have today and that is useful for both photos and augmented reality. To tell you the truth, I don't see much sense in it, at the user level. Maybe photographers hate me with this statement, but LiDAR doesn't help me much, so its implementation in all the range, I don't care too much I know it's useful for a lot when taking a picture, but between the 12 without LiDAR and the12 Pro with it, if you are not a photographer or you are very interested in photography, you can't tell them apart.
What name do you think they will give it? Are you interested?
