> has no headphones or charger in the box
I've got so fucking many wired Apple headphones and chargers I don't know what to do with them all.
I'm glad they're not bundling them any more. I use an Anker charger and cable anyway.

iPhone 13 starts at $699 for the mini and $799 for the non-mini, not $1000.
iPhone 6 had headphone connector, reasonable size and touchid. It had headphones and charger bundled in, for $650 at launch.
iPhone 13 definitely has better camera, display and performance, and it is bit more water resistant and has wireless charging. But it's larger, missing headphone connector, it has faceid (which never works in pandemic world due to masks), has no headphones or charger in the box, and cost $1000 at launch.
So there definitely are improvements (the quality of life from wireless charging, nicer screen and camera) but it comes at almost twice the cost and a lot of stupid choices like faceid. For people not interested in performance and camera, the iPhone 13 can almost seem worse.
