According to Katy Huberty, lead analyst at Morgan Stanley, the iPhone 13 doesn’t have any groundbreaking features, but does offer the functions that consumers care about most: 5G, better cameras and improved battery life.
He said that the fact that the iPhone 13 supports more 5G bands than the iPhone 12 will help the device reach more areas and markets, especially those who are using old devices and want to upgrade to world-class mobile networks.
`Morgan Stanley is optimistic about iPhone growth prospects in fiscal 2022. iPhone 13 sales will contribute greatly to this outlook,` Ms. Huberty said.
Amit Daryanani, an analyst at Evercore ISI, said the new iPhone may not be attractive to iPhone 12 users, but is the priority device to `upgrade` to older iPhone users.
However, contrary to the opinions of experts, users are not very interested in the new iPhone.
`Buying an iPhone 13 is now like buying a new pair of socks that are no different from the old socks you currently own,` one account commented.
