It was announced earlier this month, via a leak, that the whole Apple iPhone 13 series would contain a LiDAR sensor. LiDAR functionality will only be available on the Pro models, according to other tipsters. Adding to the earlier report, Apple analyst Wedbush confirms the LiDAR scanner is coming to the full lineup.

As part of his analysis of the iPhone 13’s supply chain in Asia, the Apple expert confirmed that LiDAR is definitely coming and that manufacturing numbers for the 13-series had risen. Additionally, the Pro versions are said to have an internal capacity of up to 1TB vs 512GB.

Our expectation is that the capacity of lower-end storage options will also rise, but this has not yet been confirmed. This might change with the 13-series, with a base storage configuration of 128GB, as opposed to the current 64GB model.
