What will the successor to the iPhone 12 be called? Will Apple dare to call it iPhone 13 or will they skip the unlucky number 13? Is this silicone phone case proof of the final name?
If you know, please let us know, preferably in the comments. We expect an invitation for the iPhone unveiling somewhere in September. So it's not surprising that we're already seeing cases for the iPhone 13. According to the source, these are the official Apple cases. And on them is written quite large "iPhone 13".

So is this the ultimate proof about the final name of the next iPhone? Perhaps. But as long as the latest iPhone has not been officially announced, we dare not say for sure. If Apple indeed chooses iPhone 13 it doesn't believe critics who claim it scares off customers. In many cultures, 13 is considered an unlucky number. More than enough reason to avoid the number like the plague.
Supercycle
With the iPhone 12 Apple experienced a so-called Supercycle. Many people with old iPhone models switched to an iPhone 12; the first iPhone model with 5G support. Maybe that's why Apple is expecting slightly lower sales anyways. In that case, the '13' makes little difference anyway. The iPhone 13 is expected to come with a 120Hz display and improved cameras.
