Apple: the three controversies the iPhone 14 will face if the smartphone is really the one we expec

iPhone 14: two standard models and two Pro models


As for a few years now and the release of the iPhone, Apple should once again present several models of iPhones at its Keynote on September 7 - according to insiders. This year, we should have the right to 4 models: iPhone 14, iPhone 14 Max, iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max. As you can see, the Cupertino company has not chosen to continue its low-cost series by offering an iPhone 14 mini.


We will therefore have the right, logically, two models "standard" and two models "Pro". And it's precisely on the Pro Max version that the biggest changes will take place, and the least we can say is that they are likely to cause a lot of ink to flow at the time of the iPhone's release. Lovers of the brand and detractors will certainly find themselves arguing for their cause, especially if all the leaks turn out to be real. We can even give you the 3 points that will be the most talked about: the screen, the processor and the price.


Notchless screen, but not for all models


If the quality of the screen itself should be identical on all models, the notch for the front camera should differ depending on the version of the smartphone. If Apple had chosen to reduce this famous notch on the iPhone 13, it should be further reduced on the 14th of the name, to the point that only two small dots appear at the top of the screen. But as we explained to you, this novelty could not appear on all models. Indeed, the "non-Pro" versions should not be equipped with this novelty and would therefore keep the measurements of the iPhone 13.


Will the A15 chip still be at the level this year?


The A15 Bionic chip was the driving force behind the iPhone 13, and we've seen that over the course of this year, it's a very good processor that has really raised the bar compared to its predecessor. According to rumors, it seems to be working so well that Apple may reinstate it in the "non-Pro" iPhone 14.


A few months ago, the first rumors had emerged about this difference in processor between the same generation of iPhone, something that was then confirmed by other sources. So we should end up with a new A16 chip on the iPhone 14 Pro and 14 Pro Max.


At the moment, we do not yet know what improvements this new chip will bring. Without getting into another debate, it is legitimate when we see this, to wonder if changing a processor so frequently on a range of smartphones is necessary. One thing is for sure, the price factor (we'll come to that a little further down) is likely to be the subject of much discussion, because if Apple maintains or does not lower the price of the iPhone 14, the firm will be exposed to strong criticism.
