I am attracted to the macro function and push "iPhone 13 Pro"! But I'm also worried about AirPods ...

The iPhone 13 Pro series is equipped with a good camera function.The photo shows the new color Sierra Blue.

Many people are wondering which iPhone 13 series to choose, with the four models appearing all at once. We asked experts who are familiar with smartphones to summarize which iPhone they felt "I bought this model this time!" And which part they focused on. First is Atsushi Yamamoto, a writer who is strong in Apple products and audio equipment. [Image] Price of iPhone 13 series, Apple official online store. As of September 15, 2021, pay attention to the "macro function" of the iPhone 13 Pro series Apple has announced the new iPhone 13 series. Following last year, four models will be rolled out this year as well. In particular, I felt that the iPhone 13/13 mini, which has a completely new color variation, is full of novelty in appearance and camera updates. But what I want to buy is the iPhone 13 Pro series. Since I loved the Pro series two years ago and last year, I couldn't imagine returning to the iPhone life without a telephoto camera, and I could get closer to the subject up to the shortest distance of about 2 cm installed in the new ultra-wide-angle camera. This is because I am strongly attracted to the first "macro function" of the iPhone. Last year's model had high-end camera functions such as sensor shift type camera shake correction only on the 6.7-inch iPhone 12 Pro Max, but this year's Pro series has the same camera function, so you can hold the camera with one hand and immediately hold it. The 6.1-inch iPhone 13 Pro, which seems to be easy to hold, is likely to become popular. Is the color variation the new color of this year, Sierra Blue? What's new with AirPods ...? By the way, it is rumored that a new product of Apple's classic wireless earphone "AirPods", which is indispensable for enjoying various entertainment contents on the iPhone, will be announced later this year. Unfortunately, I couldn't see it at the recital on the 15th. It's unclear if a new product is planned in the first place, but maybe Apple has another time to announce the new AirPods. In June of this year, Apple added a lossless audio service to the music distribution of Apple Music, which allows you to enjoy lossless high-quality streaming. However, the Bluetooth audio codecs supported by the iPhone and AirPods series do not currently support lossless wireless transmission. Apple may now be working on something to solve this problem. Or, by the end of the year, I expect Apple to announce the AirPods, a fully wireless earphone, as well as the second-generation flagship headphones, the AirPods Max. And for the time being, AirPods Max may take the path of achieving lossless and high resolution support by wired connection. New products and services will be announced along with Apple's "sound mono" related announcements such as dynamic head tracking support for content distributed on Apple Music and lossless playback support for the smart speaker "HomePods mini". Let's hope that the day when they will be unveiled all at once will come soon. Author: Atsushi Yamamoto Journalist and writer Atsushi Yamamoto.
