Do iPhone 12 covers fit iPhone 13?

The iPhone 13 is already available, yet it resembles the iPhone 12 in appearance. So, you're wondering if your old iPhone 12 cases will support the new iPhone 13?

If you're thinking about replacing your iPhone 12 with the new iPhone 13, you might believe you'll be able to save money by using your old case with your new phone. Unfortunately, this isn't the truth.

Apple has introduced four iPhone 13 models, each having a 0.25 mm increase in overall thickness over the iPhone 12. The rear-facing camera has increased by one millimetre in comparison to its previous one.

The simple answer is that they will not. But first, let's explore why they don't? 

Because the new iPhone 13's are slightly thicker than the previous versions, the iPhone 12 cases will not fit, despite the fact that the screen size and most of the phone's dimensions have not changed. The new bigger camera module is too huge for the opening in the iPhone 12 cases, which is the second and most likely key reason.

The iPhone 13 and iPhone 13 Pro will not fit into an iPhone 12 case. The mute switch and volume controls are located lower on the iPhone 13, while the power button is also located lower. At the same time, the camera positioning on the rear of the iPhone 12 is slightly wrong, rendering an iPhone 12 case unsuitable.

When comparing the iPhone 12 Pro to the iPhone 13 Pro, the camera module on the newer iPhone is larger. Apple does not publish any dimensions on its comparison page, however, the position of the Apple logo indicates this. The logo is perfectly positioned on both models' backsides, although the logo on the iPhone 13 Pro's camera module is much closer to the camera portion.

You might think it's a good idea to squeeze your new iPhone 13 into an old cover, but keep in mind why you bought the case: to protect your iPhone. Your iPhone will not be protected unless the case's edge overlaps the screen's edge.

If you want protection, you'll need to buy something specific to your iPhone model and generation
