Using the iPhone 13 Pro in Late 2025 - My Honest Thoughts

Video Description

Here we are in late 2025, and the iPhone 13 Pro is now four years old. But with the new iPhone 17 Pro on the market and major software changes like iOS 26, does this old flagship still hold up? In this video, I'm giving you my honest, long-term review of the iPhone 13 Pro (and Pro Max) after using it for years. We'll cover everything you need to know if you're still using one, thinking of buying one used, or wondering if it's finally time to upgrade. We'll discuss the timeless design, the still-gorgeous 120Hz ProMotion display, and how the A15 Bionic chip handles the demanding new animations in iOS 26. We'll also have a real talk about the battery life (and the one simple fix that makes it feel new again), see if the camera is still "pro-grade," and discuss what you're missing out on without Apple Intelligence. By the end, you'll know if this is still a great value or a phone that's finally showing its age. (Note: This review applies to both the iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max models!)
