First glimpse of Apple's iPhone 13 reveals design surprise

With (we hope) mere months until the next iPhone reveal, rumours are rife about both its features and design. Now, thanks to new dummy units based on leaked specs, we've been given our clearest look yet at the iPhone 13 line up – and with the exception of one unexpected design touch, it looks pretty familiar.

The dummy units reveal four models just like the iPhone 12 line up – and appear to negate recent rumours that the 'mini' model is facing the chop. The designs look largely unchanged from their '12' counterparts – except for the camera module on the non-Pro models. It seems our best camera phones list won't be seeing a dramatic new design in 2021 (from Apple, at least).
