Despite minimal exterior changes from the preceding iPhone XR, substantial design changes within the phone took place, including the addition of the more powerful Apple A13 Bionic chip as well as an ultra-wide dual-camera system.[4] In October 2020, Apple halted the inclusion of both Apple EarPods and the wall adapter, citing environmental goals.
