The iPhone goes into the next round with a 120-Hz panel, a bigger battery and an improved camera system. In our review, the iPhone 13 Pro has earned not only superlatives but also a few points of criticism.

There should be at least one iPhone 13 model with LCD Retina screen... for those who can't work with flickering OLED screens. Unfortunately whole iPhone 12 & 13 lineup suffers from PWM flickering :-\
Many people can't buy/work with anything newer than iPhone 11 (basic model) or iPhone SE 2020. And Apple don't care. They pay more attention to stupid emoji icons than solving people's real problems (at least 10% people or more suffers from PWM screens) :(
Nice review, but I am not sure how DC dimming works on the iPhone. Does it work at all levels of brightness, since in the review it was mentioned that below 10% of brightness the screen still flickers at 200ish rate.
I am disappointed that 240 - 510 Hz PWM is now considered an accomplishment.
Considering Samsung who manufactures the OLED panels for iPhone can only muster 250Hz on its own panels on its own phones, the fact that Apple manages to double the both refresh rate and PWM is actually quite an accomplishment.
iPhone 13 Pro is the first oled iPhone that I can use without getting eyestrain. Unless I lower the brightness to 10-15%
I find it confusing that in your review i phone 13 and 13 pro have different speaker performance in bass section, latter looking to be much better. But in gsmarena comparison iphone 13 have the slight edge. Why is there a difference like this?
