TIL Desk/Business/California/ Apple unveiled its highly anticipated iPhone 14 during its ‘Far Out’ event on Wednesday along with the iPhone 14 Plus variant, the iPhone 14 Pro and Pro Max. This new lineup is inspired by the iPhone 13, with sharp metal edges, rounded corners, a glass back, the recognisable notch at the top of the handset, and a lightning port.
The most significant change in the lineup is that the iPhone 13 mini will not be updated with this generation. Instead, the iPhone 14 will be available in two sizes: the iPhone 14 and the iPhone 14 Plus. They both have 6.1-inch and 6.7-inch displays respectively. There is no new smartphone for users who prefer phones that are handy and can fit within their hands.
“iPhone 14 also has an updated internal design that improves thermal performance,” VP of iPhone Product Marketing Kaiann Drance said. For instance, you can play games for longer sessions. The iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus are powered by Apple’s A15 Bionic chip. It’s the same chip seen in the iPhone 13 range.
The Pro and Pro Max sport the brand new faster A16 Bionic chip and an always-on display. Both these new smartphones, which come in 6.1- and 6.7-inch options, have a new pill-shaped cutout that houses Face ID, selfie camera and privacy indicators. It’s a replacement for the notch and can adjust dynamically.
