SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 14 (Xinhua) -- Apple on Tuesday introduced iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max, both with A15 Bionic chip, all-new Super Retina XDR display and improved camera system.

Their camera system gets its biggest advancement ever. With new sensors and lenses for three rear cameras, optimized to work with iOS 15 and powered by the new image signal processor (ISP) in A15 Bionic for improved noise reduction and tone mapping, the iPhone 13 Pro lineup features the best camera system ever on iPhone, the company said.

Both iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max also include 5G with more bands, improvements to battery life, new storage capacity of 1TB, and the Ceramic Shield front cover.

The all-new Wide camera has a larger sensor with 1.9 micrometer pixels. Coupled with the larger f/1.5 aperture, the Wide camera on iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max offers improvement in low-light situations. Sensor-shift optical image stabilization (OIS) is available on both models, stabilizing the sensor instead of the lens.
