Apple Highlights iPhone 13 Battery Life and Durability in New Ads

by

Apple today shared a pair of iPhone 13 ads highlighting key features like battery life and the durable Ceramic Shield front display. In the first spot, titled "Doin' Laps," a child sets his iPhone 13 up on his bike and then cruises around the neighborhood capturing a long video.


At the end of his journey, which lasts for five hours, the iPhone is still recording and has not run out of battery. "What will you do with even looooooonger battery life? Relax, it's iPhone," reads the video description for the ad.

In the second spot, titled "Run Baby Run," a toddler plays with an iPhone 13, running around with it, dropping it on the floor, banging it on various items, and dropping it in the sink. The iPhone survives intact, and the video ends with the tagline "Toddler resistant. Relax, it's iPhone."


The "Relax, it's iPhone" series is not new, and Apple has shared other videos in this series to preview Find My, the iPhone's durability, and other features. Apple has used the "Relax, it's iPhone" tagline for both the iPhone 12 and the iPhone 13.

Didn't apply say attaching your phone to your bike, motorcycle, or scooter could ruin your camera sensor. This doesn't seem all that Durable haha

Isn't it just plain false advertising? I mean I guess you can relax if you don't care at all about your iPhone being scratched all around and the battery is not bad but doesn't recording videos suck it up the most?

I think a cheap no brand Android would have been more appropriate for a child.

Haha. The ‘Doin laps’ in the cul-de-sac was funny. Seems like something I would’ve done for hours when I was a kid to procrastinate from doing homework.

Sadly, being aggrieved for the tiniest things at the drop of a hat is now the new normal on social media. It's a badge of honor for many.

Yup. It’s the norm. It’s also a just another indicator of why Internet forums are not an accurate representation with more vitriol over an iPhone ad. I have the appreciation of enjoying the creativity behind the ad, but some would rather be angry at Apple behind the keyboard. Bizarre really.
Whoah there 🤣🤣🤣 this seems like an overreaction to a perfectly sensible post by someone with an opinion that asked a question.

Perhaps answering their question would be more helpful and contribute to an enjoyable MR experience, than to be condescending and pretend they can’t read your comments.

My goodness 🤣🤣🤣

And in fact, I agree it wouldn’t be exactly false advertisement, but rather misdirection revolving around this new screen. I wouldn’t exactly call an incredibly easy to scratch screen “durable”.

Give me an unscratchable screen any day that’s more breakable…
