They had iOS 13. Granted, that's not as big a brand as iPhone, but still big enough that superstition doesn't seem to deter them much.

In contrast, Microsoft Office skipped version 13 and went straight from 2007/2008 to 2010/2011, even though you would've barely seen the 13.x version number anywhere.

I kind of got the sense that the era of the 's' years is over, but maybe not. Even so, if this year's is the 12S, that doesn't answer whether next year's would be the 13 or 14.
