Apple's next generation iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max will be able to record 4K video in the high quality ProRes format but only if you purchase a model with at least 256GB of storage.

The caveat was revealed on the Technical Specifications page for the new iPhone 13 Pro. Additionally, the page reveals that ProRes recording won't be available at launch; rather, it is "coming later this fall".

ProRes video recording up to 4K at 30 fps (1080p at 30 fps for 128GB storage)*
* Coming later this fall.

It's unclear why Apple is limiting 4K ProRes to models with at least 256GB of storage or whether that could change. For now, if you see yourself using 4K ProRes, make sure to purchase either a 256GB, 512GB, or 1TB model.

> It's unclear why Apple is limiting 4K ProRes to models with at least 256GB of storage It's not unclear, it's obvious. ProRes files are enormous, on the order of 10-20x the size of H264.

It begs the question: if they know 128GB is gonna have a problem with utilizing the full capabilities of what the iPhone Pro can do, then why even bother make it an available option. I can definitely see a lot of people getting pissed off / mislead, even tho “iT sAiD sO iN dA wEbSiTe Hurr durr “
