Apple’s Far Out event is affirmed for September 7, 2022 — that’s a week away! At the event, we are anticipating that the iPhone 14 Pro should be announced as part of the iPhone lineup.
While nobody knows the specific details of Apple’s new device coming down the pipeline one week from now, the rumor mill for the iPhone 14 seems to suggest that every one of the greatest upgrades to Apple’s generation of flagship phones will come to the iPhone 14 Pro models. Here’s what we know so far.
iPhone 14 Pro: Release date
The great news is we know that September 7, 2022, is the date at which w should see the iPhone 14 Pro get releaved to the world, the awful news is the actual release date is still up in the air.
Assuming Apple follows previous patterns, pre-orders for the iPhone 14 Pro will probably go live on Friday, September 9, and afterwards be released on Friday, September 16, 2022.
iPhone 14 Pro: Models and sizes
Similar to the iPhone 13 Pro before it, we anticipate that the iPhone 14 Pro should have two different models. The sizes from last year have not appeared to have changed, the iPhone 14 Pro should be 6.1 inches, and the iPhone 14 Pro Max should be 6.7 inches.
iPhone 14 Pro: Colors
Apple has historically been pretty stingy with the color options on the Pro models of its flagship phones, for the most part offering pretty neutral colors and then one additional color.
As per a report in April, Apple is expecting to add a new purple color to both the iPhone 14 Pro and regular iPhone 14 lineup. Whether that purple is like the purple we’ve seen on different devices like the iPad Air 5 and iPad mini 6(opens in new tab) remains to be seen.
iPhone 14 Pro: Chip
Regarding the device’s internals, the iPhone 14 Pro models are expected to carry Apple’s newest A16 chip.
iPhone 14 Pro: Display
While we expect no changes in the size of the display on the iPhone 14 Pro models, they might be better displays.
It’s not hard to see how an always-on display would take advantage of Lock Screen widgets, particularly assuming you’ve been using the beta, and this feature seems to be limited to the Pro models only, which would seem OK since the Pro models as of now use better and more power-efficient display technology.
iPhone 14 Pro: Camera
As of late, we’ve seen Apple place a ton of emphasis on camera upgrades, particularly in the Pro models and if the rumors are true, the iPhone 14 Pro will be the same.
A huge camera upgrade could be on the cards for the iPhone this year by way of a 48MP camera.
More recently, we’ve likewise heard the iPhone 14 Pro’s Ultra Wide camera could get bigger 1.4-micrometer pixels, a major upgrade on the current 1.0 size.
iPhone 14 Pro: Battery
With regards to your daily driver, you quite often need more battery life, and the whole iPhone 14 setup lineup is expected to get a bump in battery capacity.
The new iPhones could support charging speeds as high as 30 watts, which seems, by all accounts, to be peak performance. The same report notes that speeds are probably going to “drop down to 27-25W” after a short while.
iPhone 14 Pro: Price
The iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max had beginning costs of $999 and $1,099, separately. There’s no reason to expect that the prices will be less expensive, and sadly, it seems as though they might be much more costly.
