Here’s what was presented at Apple's autumn event – the iPhone 13, the Watch Series 7 and new iPads

The iPhone 13 mini and iPhone 13

With the iPhone 13 mini and iPhone 13, we get a new display that is 28 per cent brighter and with much better performance. Beneath the screen is the new Apple A15 Bionic processor and an improved Neural Engine circuit that pushes up the speed considerably compared to last year's models.

The cameras have also been improved. Both models use the same camera set as their predecessors with a 12-megapixel wide-angle and an ultra-wide-angle camera. Both cameras have improved camera sensors and new optics that captures more light and provide better colour reproduction than before.

What else do you think is new with the new models? How about a smaller display cutout for cameras and sensors, Cinematic Mode for smarter video recording, higher 5G speeds and longer battery life.

With the iPhone 13 you get up to 2.5 hours longer battery life and with the iPhone 13 mini it is up to 1.5 hours longer battery life than with its predecessors. Not bad!

The new iPhone 13 mini costs from $1,249 and the iPhone 13 from $1,429.

The iPhone 13 Pro and 13 Pro Max

The flagship models the iPhone 13 Pro and Pro Max use the same basic hardware as the sibling models, the iPhone 13 mini and iPhone 13.

One of the big differences is a brand-new Super Retina XDR screen that supports up to 1,000 nits brightness and support for ProMotion. Finally, we can play on an iPhone with up to 120Hz just like with an iPad Pro.  

The cameras have also been improved and Apple has designed a completely new camera system with new sensors and lenses. Just like last year's models, there is a telephoto lens, an ultra-wide angle and a wide angle. They have larger camera sensors and better optics that let in up to 92 per cent more light than before and increase the richness of detail.

This means you can take pictures and record better quality videos even in low light conditions. And the macro capabilities have also been significantly improved in the new models!

Other news is that Apple has included more features for professional video recording and editing. One such novelty is the ProRes format for videos coming later in the year.

And then we have the battery life. With the iPhone 13 Pro, you get up to 1.5 hours longer battery life than its predecessor the 12 Pro, and the iPhone 13 Pro Max can last up to 2.5 hours longer than the 12 Pro Max.

The new iPhone 13 Pro costs from $1,799 and the iPhone 13 Pro Max from £1,999.

The new iPad (9th Generation)

Apple's cheapest iPad model is upgraded with a new processor, improved front camera and True Tone support for the 10.2-inch screen. With an A13 Bionic, the new iPad has up to 20 per cent higher performance and, according to Apple, is up to three times more powerful than the popular Chromebooks.

The new 12 megapixels front camera has a full 122-degree field of view. 

A big news is that the iPad finally supports the stylus Pencil - but only the first generation. The new iPad is released with iPadOS 15 and has from 64GB of storage.

The new iPad costs from £319.

The iPad Mini

Finally, Apple has upgraded its smallest tablet - the iPad Mini. The new model has a 8.3-inch screen with rounded corners and a curved design. Beneath the screen is a processor that has up to 80 per cent better performance compared to its predecessor and there is support for both 5G and WiFi 6. 

Other news is that the iPad Mini uses the same ultra-wide-angle camera on the front as in the new iPad and that you can use the second-generation Pencil to write and draw. 

And finally, the iPad Mini uses a USB-C port just like the iPad Pro models.

The new iPad Mini costs from £479.
