Triskaidekaphobia: iPhone 13 will not be released this year or next
Now, insiders are confirming that this year Apple will release the iPhone 12s line of smartphones, and next year it will launch a line called iPhone 14. Although previously it was speculated that the iPhone 13 will be released in 2022.
Sources point out that 13 is considered an unfavorable number in many countries around the world. The fear of the number 13 is called triskaidekaphobia. In some buildings, floors are numbered so as not to irritate triskaidekaphobes: after the 12th floor, 14 may immediately follow, the building may have floors 12A and 12B, in addition, the 13th floor may be called “12 + 1”. Young people prefer not to get married on the 13th, especially on Friday. Due to the superstition of many pilots, there was no F-13 fighter in the United States. Also number 13 is not usually used in auto racing. However, it is worth remembering that Apple has released the Apple A13 single-chip system and the iOS 13 operating system.
Apple previously released intermediate versions of smartphones that did not differ much from the main numbered smartphones, bringing with them minor improvements. The iPhone 6S replaced the iPhone 6 in 2015, and the iPhone XS replaced the iPhone X in 2018.
