Unbox Therapy showcases iPhone 13 Pro Max dummy with smaller notch and more

Later this year, Apple is expected to release the iPhone 13 lineup. And as usual and customary, leaks have been pouring down for quite a while now in anticipation of the next-gen flagship iPhone range. Having said that, popular tech Youtuber Unbox Therapy has come up with a new video in which he showcases the iPhone 13 Pro Max dummy/mockup unit. This has to be the most convincing iPhone mockup we have ever seen.

The dummy unit has a smaller notch as expected complete with all the Face ID components and camera module stacked inside the notch in a neat and tidy manner. Oh yes! the earpiece/speaker combo is situated at the top part of the device well outside the notch. The iPhone 12 Pro Max is brought up in the video for comparison with the notch being 34.62 mm wide vs 26.31 mm on the iPhone 13 Pro Max dummy unit. Isn’t that change significant? at least in the Apple world of things!

Moving on, thickness has been ever so slightly increased over the current model and the same goes for the camera modules and island. Talking about thickness, this year we might witness a mini-LED display on the Pro range of iPhones (or just the Pro Max model) much like the recently released 12.9″ iPad Pro 2021. On that note, the display will bring in the long-awaited 120Hz refresh rate and may integrate the Touch ID, again reserved only for the Pro range of devices.

The mockup unit’s color looks like Apple’s Graphite paint job albeit considerably lighter in shade as opposed to the iPhone 12 Pro Max. Other tidbits from the video confirm Apple’s isn’t going all-wireless, at least this year with the lightning port being retained at the bottom of the device.
