According to Apple, the first iPhone 13 devices will officially ship on Friday, September 24, 2021. Now an unboxing video has appeared on YouTube showing the iPhone 13 Pro Max in gold.
The embargo on initial reviews of the iPhone 13 is reportedly set to be lifted tomorrow, while the first orders will be delivered on Friday. However, this does not seem to interest YouTuber SalimBaba Technical particularly. He received a gold iPhone 13 Pro Max and unpacked it on camera. The video offers a closer look at the new packaging and the device itself. The iPhone 13 Pro Max has a very similar design to the iPhone 12 Pro Max, but with a few minor changes. The iPhone 13 Pro Max is slightly thicker and heavier than its predecessor. In addition, the camera bump on the back is significantly larger. In addition, the notch has been made a little smaller. Apple has also redesigned the packaging of the iPhone 13 to remove the plastic film. As a reminder, a picture surfaced a few days ago showing the change for the first time.
Redesigned packaging: iPhone 13 becomes more environmentally friendly
Apple has already confirmed that it has made this change along with other environmentally friendly adjustments.
The packaging redesign eliminates the outer plastic packaging, saving 600 tons of plastic and bringing Apple closer to its goal of being completely plastic-free by 2025.
The today's video offers a look at the newly designed packaging in the wild and shows that the box is secured with a self-adhesive paper tab instead of plastic film. Inside the packaging are the usual manuals, Apple stickers and a USB-C to Lightning cable. Anyway. Since the first test reports are expected tomorrow, we should soon see a flood of such videos and the like. As soon as the first test articles have been published, we will report on them in summary.
