On September 14, Apple announced the iPhone 13 series, which includes the company’s most recent advancements. The iPhone 13 small, iPhone 13, iPhone 13 Pro, and iPhone 13 Pro Max are among the four versions in the range. With the iPhone 13, Apple has made a few design modifications, such as reducing the notch by 20% and placing the camera diagonally on the iPhone 13 and 13 small.

Since their release, these new iPhones have been purchased by a large number of people all around the world. As a result, users and reviewers have started sharing their initial impressions of the latest iPhones.

Following Android’s lead, Apple introduced a ‘Raise to Wake’ capability in the iOS 10 upgrade. Following that, it added the Tap to Wake on function, which allows you to switch on Display with only one touch. Manufacturers such as Samsung and OnePlus are supporting these features with Ambient Display on Android. However, the actual issue arises when the Tap to Wake function on iPhone and OnePlus smartphones abruptly stops working.
