When Apple is preparing for its fall launch event, which is likely to be held in September, everyone’s eyes are on the iPhone 14. The cupertino giant is expected to launch a new iPhone 14 series at the upcoming event. The new iPhone lineup will include four models without the ‘mini’ version this year. The report also shows that there will be a big difference between the standard iPhone model and the iPhone Pro Max model this time. Which says, this is a quick view on the launch date, specifications, and price of the iPhone 14 series in India, among others.
While Apple is not known to reveal any information about the upcoming iPhone, including their release date, Rumor Mill shows that the launch of the iPhone 14 is likely to occur at the next September event. The name of the name named Ihacktu Ileaks has stepped more advanced and revealed that the next generation iPhone will be launched on September 13 globally and in India. While Tipster has not revealed a credible source for this information, the date of the launch of September seems to be the most likely, because most iPhones are launched in the first week or second September. Tipster also revealed that the shipping date for the iPhone 14 model could be immediately after September 23, only 10 days after launch. But we advise you to take this information as a salt. According to another Nikkei Asia report, at least one iPhone model, especially the iPhone 14 Pro Max, has been behind the production schedule due to locking in China. So there is a possibility that the release date of iPhone 13 September can be postponed, at least for the iPhone 14 Pro Max.
iPhone 14 models
The iPhone 14 series is expected to include four models as well as the iPhone 13 series. However, according to reports, Apple dropped the ‘Mini’ iPhone lineup this year due to poor sales. Instead, we will see the ‘iPhone 14 Plus/Max‘ model this time. If it happens, the new iPhone series will look like this – Standard iPhone 14, iPhone 14 Plus/Max, iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max.According to previous leaks and rumors, the iPhone 14 series was set to receive a significant change this time. For further details continue to read.
iPhone 14 price in India
IPhone 14 is likely to be more expensive than iPhone 13 (review), maybe due to mini variants and missing inflation. According to an analyst, the price of a new generation of iPhone will increase at least $ 100 or 10,000 RS in India because Apple appreciates USD 1 to RS 100 because of import duties, taxes, and other factors. If true, the basic model of the iPhone 14 can start from $ 899 (~ Rs 89,900 in India), while the iPhone 14 Max can be worth $ 999 (~ Rs 99,900 in India). But Apple may still decide to maintain the current price in the hope of increasing sales. IPhone 13, to remember, is valued in India starting from RS 79,900.
Which said, a higher price can be justified for the ‘Pro’ model because Apple is expected to introduce the broader difference in specifications between the standard iPhone models and the Pro models. So, the price of the iPhone 14 Pro in India can start from RS 1,29,900 for a 128GB storage variant, while the iPhone 14 Pro Max can cost $ 1,199 (~ RS 1,39,900 in India) for 128GB of storage variants.
Rumors of iPhone 14 design are everywhere about the design and specifications of the iPhone 14. And as discussed earlier, the standard iPhone model is expected to maintain the same box design as a flat edge. However, the same thing does not apply to the ‘Pro’ model. The pro model, this time, is expected to come with big changes in terms of their design and specifications.
iPhone 14 specifications
Display
All iPhone 14 series will be launched with OLED displays, such as the iPhone 12 and iPhone 13 series. Reports once again claim that all iPhone models including the iPhone 14 standards and iPhone Plus/Max models will use the promotion display, the term used by Apple to show a high level of refreshment. Standard models that use a higher level of refresh will be the first for Apple, if true because Apple still uses a normal 60Hz display on the standard iPhone 13.
Come to the details of the refresh rate, iPhone 14 standard and iPhone 14 Plus/Max will use the 6.1 -inch OLED LTP screen with a refresh rate of 90Hz. However, the standard model display will not get a variable rate rate feature and therefore, it will not have a always-on (AOD) display. The iPhone 14 Pro model on the other hand will use the LTPO OLED 120Hz Refresh Rate 6.7 inch with the ability to refresh variables. Thus, you will get AOD features.
Camera
The standard iPhone 14 model is expected to maintain a camera hardware that is almost the same as the 12MP dual camera on the back and a 12MP front camera for selfies. But, it won’t be an Apple if we don’t see an increase in camera with a new iPhone. According to Ming-Chi Kuo tipster, selfie cameras now get a larger f/1.9 aperture lens with an automatic focus instead of aperture f/2.2 which is longer with a fixed focus on a longer iPhone model.
On the other hand, reports from Mark Gurman, editor at Bloomberg, and Ming-Chi Kuo analyst suggested that Apple made big changes to the pro models in front. Instead of using a ‘notch’ design, which holds the hardware needed for facial IDs, Apple will use a pale cutting combination and pill-shaped pills for dot face ID projectors and camera hardware and other components, respectively. According to another educated Ross Young, Apple also plans to put some facial ID hardware under the screen to help change new design and make the cutouts smaller. Apple also made changes to the rear camera. The iPhone 14 Pro and Pro Max can also come with the main high resolution 48MP sensor. A larger sensor means the camera lump on the back will be bigger, but not with a large margin.
Connectivity
There are rumors about the iPhone without portless for some time now, but we don’t know whether the iPhone 2022 will display changes in the design. What we know, according to tips is that the iPhone can maintain this year’s lightning port and Apple will not switch to the USB-C port, which is a little disappointing to see. But according to a report from Ming-Chi Kuo Apple plans to use a USB-C from the iPhone 15 and so on, on time when the EU mandate is only valid.
Apart from the Apple 14 series it is estimated to get satellite connectivity features for emergency communication. If true, this feature will help you send short messages when there is no cellular connectivity. Another thing to note here is that the iPhone 14 will not use a physical SIM slot and will depend on the e-SIM feature instead. In addition, the new iPhone will also display Wi-Fi 6e connectivity according to Apple Ming-Chi Kuo analyst.
Processor
Now coming to the processor, Apple for the first time, plans to use the latest generation of processors, the possibility of A16 Bionic, only in the Pro iPhone 14 model. Standard models, possibly the iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus/Max, will continue to use older A15 Bionic, The same chipset used in the current iPhone 13 series. This means, there will be no main performance difference between the current iPhone series and the iPhone 14 standard model. Ming-chi Kuo also noted that A16 will have a small increase in the current A15 chipset. Because the new A16 chipset will continue to use the N5P process node – the same as A15, thereby limiting the performance benefits that can be achieved.
