ISLAMABAD: The iPhone 13 launch is just a few weeks away, and some new interesting features are being leaked ahead of Apple’s rumoured September 14 launch event. The latest in iPhone 13 leaks is support for satellite connectivity, which would allow users to make calls and send messages even without cellular coverage.
