According to the convention, Apple will release the new iPhone 14 lineup in September this year, there are still five months before the conference, but the news about the new machine is indeed flying, so that users who intend to buy iPhone 14 can understand the new machine changes in advance.
Previously, whistleblower 91Mobiles has exposed the CAD renderings of the iPhone 14 Pro. Now another digital blogger has broken out a modeling drawing of the suspected iPhone 14 series, which shows the difference between the appearance and screen size of the iPhone 14 series in more detail.
From the drawings, this year's iPhone 14 series is still composed of four models, the difference is that iPhone 14 will cancel the 5.4-inch mini series, and add a 6.7-inch iPhone 14 Pro, so that the iPhone 14 series of four models only have 6.1 and 6.7 screen sizes.
From the front of the picture, the model in the picture does not show whether the iPhone 14 Pro uses a bang screen or an exclamation point hole screen, but the earpiece at the top of the screen still uses a micro-slit design similar to the iPhone 13.
Subsequently, Weibo user @Quick Review Lab also broke out a photo of an aluminum alloy model that was said to be the iPhone 14 series.
Judging from the model in this picture, consistent with the above modeling drawing information, this year's iPhone 14 lineup will not have a mini version, and a large-screen iPhone 14 Max version will be added. In the past two years, the sales of the iPhone 12 and 13 mini versions are indeed far less than the other three, and Apple's cancellation of the mini is also expected.
The information that can also be seen in the photo is also the rear mirror module, iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Max still continue the diagonal dual camera design, and the 14 Pro and 14 Pro Max also continue to continue the triple camera design, which from the picture courseware, Pro model and the basic model of the lens module The overall area is larger, and the rumor also mentioned that the rear lens module of the iPhone 14 Pro series will be more prominent.
The iPhone 14 Pro series lens module is related to the upgrade of the camera system, and there are rumors that the iPhone 14 Pro series models are expected to significantly improve the wide-angle camera and update the telephoto lens. Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo also said that this year's iPhone 14 Pro/Pro Max will upgrade the wide-angle (main camera) lens to 48 million pixels, and is expected to support 8K video shooting formats.
This purported iPhone 14 series aluminum alloy model is most likely from iPhone accessory manufacturers, who need to obtain effective new machine details from channels before the release of the new iPhone to produce accessories such as protective cases in advance.
At present, many sources agree that the iPhone 14 Pro series models will cancel the bangs screen, replaced by an exclamation point double digging design, and the black edges around the screen will be narrowed, and the rough comparison can be seen in the following comparison chart.
In addition, foreign media iDrop News believes that the iPhone 14 series will not configure Type-C, and will continue to use Lightning. But Apple engineers are preparing to increase Lightning's transfer speed to be comparable to USB 3.0 to solve the iPhone Pro Series's slow transmission of ProRes image formats.
Apple Lightning transfer speed support USB 3.0 is not the first time, as early as the 2015 iPad Pro 12.9 model, Apple added USB 3.0 only limited to the Lightning SD card adapter to support USB 3.0, the rest of the Lightning transmission cable will still be limited to USB 2.0 speed.
Apple has not been updated for several years for the Lightning core MFi certification, will lead to the transfer speed can only maintain USB 2.0, if the iPhone 14 Pro series can make Lightning support USB 3.0, will certainly solve the film and television workers to shorten the ProRes transfer time, if true, then the iPhone 14 Pro series will be the first Lightning can support USB 3.0 models.
Still thinking about the iPhone to use Type-C small partners do not have to think, iPhone replacement Type-C interface is impossible, "portless" iPhone is Apple's ultimate goal, can rely on MagSafe wireless connection technology to meet charging and data transmission.
