Apple has insisted on four iPhones as part of its two-generation flagship, and new molds that leaked news about the iPhone 14 series show that the company won’t change the number of devices it launches this year. However, it will change the stance on what iPhone customers should spend money for. First, the high-end iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max show larger cameras, just like the current models.
A picture from Weibo and uploaded by the “Quick Review Lab” shows four iPhone 14 molds without a mini version. Apple reportedly canceled the iPhone 14 mini earlier, probably due to poor sales and plans to replace it with a larger version, dubbed the iPhone 14 Max. Because consumers show a strong affinity for large-screen smartphones, Apple hopes to sell as many products as possible in a calendar year because of its inherent advantages.
The mold of the iPhone 14 Max is larger than that of a regular iPhone 14, and it shows that there are dual cameras reserved for punching holes on the back. Based on the text written on the sticker in the image below, it will have a 6.7-inch display, the same as the iPhone 14 Pro Max, which means a larger battery and potentially higher resolution will emerge. As for the “Pro” version, the camera displayed by the mold is significantly larger than the non-Pro version.
The larger camera may be due to an upgrade to the 48MP camera, and previously leaked schematics show the same changes, while also leading to an increase in thickness. The camera upgrade may also make the iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max support 8K video recording, which will require higher storage system requirements, which Apple is said to plan to do as well.
