iPhone 13 and iPhone 13 mini might miss out on a key upgrade

there’s one thing that leakers can’t agree on, and that’s whether or not the whole iPhone 13 range will get a LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) scanner. However, it looks increasingly unlikely that the two cheapest models will.

According to @dylandkt (a developer and leaker), LiDAR will only come to the iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max. Apparently Apple originally wanted to include it on all four upcoming models (which might be why a lot of leaks say it is coming to all four), but for undisclosed reasons that’s supposedly not now happening.

That would mean no change on this front from the iPhone 12 range, where the Pro models already have a LiDAR scanner – a sensor that uses laser beams to measure distance, aiding photography and augmented reality.
