A few weeks ago, Apple launched its newest smartphone, the iPhone 13 Series with the highest model they present, the iPhone 13 Pro Max. Because it is still new, it is not surprising that this smartphone is sought-after by many people who are planning to buy a new iPhone every year or who really want to try new features on the iPhone 13 Series.
Based on the article regarding the most wanted smartphones on GSMArena, it is revealed that the iPhone 13 Pro Max is in the first position as the most desired smartphone. But now another variant of the iPhone 13 Series becomes less popular as they drop deep on this list.
There are still third-party apps that don’t support 120Hz on iPhone 13 Pro and Pro Max
Without further ado, here is a list of the 10 most sought-after smartphones in the 39th week of 2021 quoted from GSMArena via Naijaknowhow:
Take note that the prices of these devices in Nigeria may differ due to the current exchange rate and other market-related reasons, e.g, shipping fees, customs charges etc.
