Other iPhone 14 Series to feature complete redesign, 48MP camera, punch hole display but no mini model

Now I have ordered the 13 Pro Max. Delivery 5 nov! Yay.. Maybe I get one without the different problems some have every year. It is impossible to not have some flaws when making millions of units obviously.

Its a long wait but maybe I get it earlier. No worries, I have and old 7+ and that will work fine for another month or even years but I feel like upgrading the phone this year and I probably do Watch next year.

I cracked…. I picked up the SB version and have it sitting next to my graphite …. And it does look kinda nice. 😞😞

24 hours to decide if the graphite goes back…. Also the SB version is 1TB… 😬😬😬

I’ll gladly pay a little more for an expensive feeling thinner lighter phone..i mean what’s a little more money for a lot better features

That why I purchased the iPhone 13 Mini 256GB! I love the size and Apple will no longer have another iPhone Mini ever again.

Even though it’s likely that Apple will discontinue the Mini-line of iPhones (unfortunately. They didn’t even bother to promote it, so it’s like they wanted it to ‘fail’…), but nothing has been confirmed yet, so it should still be treated as a rumour.

48mp likely next year as it’s needed for 8K recording.

Well they should have also used Zeiss optics long time ago, but to expensive i guess for them till getting in this current $$ range..nokia has been for a long time, takes the best pics.
 
No matter what debuts on the 14 Pro Max, I’m upgrading my 12 Pro Max. This year’s upgrade didn’t appeal to me to make me want to upgrade, plus I can’t part with the Pacific Blue color.

I think the only thing they got right was 120Hz and smaller notch.

Also improved battery life. My 13 Pro Max has insane battery life. I actually like the look of the bigger cameras on the back of the phone. I say, make them bigger!!!! 😂 😆
 
I reckon Apple will pull a stunt by lowering the battery capacity and claim the battery life is about the same as the 13 series. That’s what they did for the 12 series too. I hope they’ll just keep improving the battery life. It’s very clear that a lot of users care about their phones lasting as long as it can under medium to high usage.

I would also like to see a matte finish on the chassis of the 14 Pro series. I’m done with the glossy, fingerprint magnet finish of the stainless steel. People cannot tell me it’s not doable because Apple did it in 2010 with the iPhone 4. It has a brushed stainless steel finish. If they can do that with having colour options, that’s an innovation right there.

Fringe features I would like to see is the return of Touch ID on the power button. Reduced camera bump would be welcoming. Having a USB C port instead of lightning would streamline how cables are presented on my workstation.

The only feature that I don’t care about is the removal of the notch for a punch hole camera.

A few minutes with a steel wool pad or fine grit sandpaper will take care of that for you on your existing phone.

Honestly I didn’t want to own another blue phone. Last year‘s Pacific Blue color look so much better than the Sierra Blue this year. Knowing Apple, they’re going to come out with a color that no one is going to expect.

The sierra blue is actually more of a steely grey than baby blue. Perhaps you need to see it in person

I think PB is duller than the new SB. SB is like icy blue/steely grey, it’s gorgeous

I’m glad I didn’t buy it if it have a steely grey look to it. I hate that color. I don’t mind the darker blue of Pacific Blue. I’m using a bumper and with the light hitting it it’s beautiful.
