Pros and cons
Pros
- Still supported: Apple lists it as compatible with iOS 27
- Up to 19 hours of video playback, 2 hours more than the iPhone 12
- Starts at 128GB, double the iPhone 12's 64GB
- Takes a physical nano-SIM as well as eSIM
- OLED display, IP68 to 6 metres and MagSafe, like newer iPhones
Cons
- Lightning, not USB-C: the iPhone 15 and later use USB-C
- No Apple Intelligence support
- 12MP cameras with no Telephoto; the iPhone 15 has a 48MP main camera with a 2x option
- A notch instead of the Dynamic Island on the iPhone 15 and later
Our verdict
The iPhone 13 is one of the most sought-after used iPhones for good reason: an OLED display, the A15 Bionic, Cinematic mode, IP68 to 6 metres and up to 19 hours of video playback, and it still gets iOS 27.
Its age shows in the Lightning port, the 12MP cameras and the lack of Apple Intelligence. Buy it renewed for the price; if USB-C or a 48MP camera matters, step up to an iPhone 15.

iPhone 13 price guide
What the iPhone 13 costs in the UAE
Across the 15 stores we track, the iPhone 13 sells for between AED 960 and AED 2,589. That spread covers 3 storage options, sealed new and pre-owned stock and 6 colours, so the headline price is rarely the price of the exact model you want.
