The iPhone is one of the most popular mobile devices in the world. It has more than a decade of solid experience in the market. Apple is always working on innovations and improvements for its devices. For this reason, Apple regularly offers new versions of the iPhone. For this 2022, the arrival of the iPhone 14 is imminent. It is expected to be announced on Wednesday, September 7 at an event called “Far Out”. News of new Mac models, iPad, and news about the Apple Watch and TV are also expected.
Until now, the Cupertino company has not provided much information about the iPhone 14. This secrecy has fueled interest in obtaining data from the new model. For this reason, there are several leaks, and rumors, that circulate at the hands of high-profile analysts and media specialized in technology, and particularly in Apple. In this article, we will share with you the advance information so far on the features and technical resources of the iPhone 14.
iPhone 14 news
As reported by the specialized media 9to5Mac, it is believed that the iPhone 14 line will have four different devices with two different screen sizes. The iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Pro will feature a 6.1-inch screen. For its part, the iPhone 14 Max and iPhone 14 Pro Max will have 6.7-inch screens.
Ming-Chi Kuo, a renowned Apple analyst with more than a decade reporting on this company and considered one of the most accurate in terms of leaks from Apple, has assured that the price will be around $900 for the basic versions. Another aspect that has stood out is that there will be no mini version. According to the leak of Jon Prosser, another renowned analyst, the appearance of the iPhone 14 would be similar to that of the iPhone 12, with the corners at an angle. Likewise, it ensures that the new model is thicker than the iPhone 12 or iPhone 13. Regarding the range of colors, several sources suggest that it is made up of silver, black, gold, blue, and purple.

Will It Be Worth Buying the iPhone 14?
Those who own an iPhone 13 may have a legitimate question whether the planned upgrades to the iPhone 14 lineup will justify a move to the next model. The specialized page Macrumors points out that the next line of devices is expected to have key updates, such as more memory and improved cameras. The page also indicates that the iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Max would have improved battery life. This is thanks to a new, more efficient 5G chip, which is smaller and consumes less power.
For his part, Ming-Chi Kuo has stated that only the iPhone 14 Pro models will be equipped with the A16 chip, which represents an improvement in performance. The standard iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Max models will have the A15 chip, like the iPhone 13.
However, according to information shared by Macrumors, despite containing the same A15 chip as the iPhone 13 series, the standard iPhone 14 models could have slightly improved performance, due to a new design and other changes. Another feature that could be found in the iPhone 14, for some regions, is a series of satellite-based emergency functions that allow communication with emergency services in locations where there is no cellular coverage.
Also, Kuo notes, it will have an improved front-facing camera system with autofocus and a wider aperture. This enables more light to pass through the lens. This would give an enhancement effect to photos and videos in portrait mode, as well as better autofocus during video calls.
In short, the iPhone 14 models will enjoy improvements in their photographic and video capabilities. As well as advances in connectivity, and a little in its performance. Which positions these devices a little above the iPhone 13. However, in terms of features, they are not too far apart. What can make the idea of change less attractive for many users of the brand.
