iPhone 14 models will reportedly deviate further from iPhone 14 Pro models with different chips and wide cameras Bloombergof Mark Gurman.
In his latest “Power On” newsletter, Gurman backed up a slew of rumors about the iPhone 14 lineup and affirmed that Apple is still working on satellite connectivity. Gurman outlines how Apple further differentiates its Pro and non-Pro iPhone models in the iPhone 14 lineup. The new 48-megapixel wide-angle camera will be exclusive to the Pro models, while the standard iPhone 14 models will retain the 12-megapixel wide camera like the iPhone 13 series.
As Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo first suggested, the non-Pro iPhone models “will likely stick with last year’s A15 or a variant thereof,” while the Pro models will feature Apple’s new A16 chip. Gurman added that in addition to trying to differentiate the Pro models, a global chip shortage may have contributed to the decision.
Gurman added that he expects the new “iPhone 14 Max” to bring a 6.7-inch display to the non-Pro iPhone 14 model, which is at least $200 cheaper than the current iPhone, the only 6.7-inch iPhone option. 13 majors max.
Gurman also reiterated other rumors that the iPhone 14 models will feature a very similar design to the iPhone 12 and iPhone 13 models, adding “a new notch for the Pro models,” including a pill-shaped cutout for Face ID and a notch for Face ID. Circular cutout for facial recognition. cameras, and a “larger camera bump to accommodate the new sensor.”
In addition, Gurman claims that Apple is still working on bringing satellite connectivity to the iPhone. Apple is said to intend to introduce the feature in the iPhone 13 models, but the new feature could be ready for the iPhone 14 lineup this year. Satellite connectivity is designed to report emergencies and send short texts to emergency contacts when no cellular service is available.
The rumor is said to be backed by satellite company Globalstar Inc., which struck a deal to buy 17 satellites to support “continuous satellite service” with “potential” unnamed customers that have paid it hundreds of millions of dollars. Gurman recently reported that the Apple Watch will also get satellite connectivity in 2022 or 2023.
