The most recent iPhone 14 rumors have confirmed the brand new colours we’ll see for the telephones, a few superior new options, and two deal breakers for the iPhone 14 Professional and iPhone 14 Professional Max.
As we get nearer to Apple’s “Far Out” occasion, new leaks are beginning to emerge. These newest ones come from consumer “yeux1122” on Korean weblog Naver. In fact, these are simply rumors, however this consumer cites the supply as a “US developer supply,” which suggests they may carry some weight.
New colours
One factor everyone knows is that each new iPhone comes with some new colours to pad out the usual selections that most individuals get. That’s the case for this new era, too.
The iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Max look set to be launched within the following colours:
- Midnight
- Starlight
- Blue
- Crimson
- Purple
- Inexperienced
In the meantime, the iPhone 14 Professional and iPhone 14 Professional Max will launch within the following finishes:
- Graphite
- Silver
- Gold
- Purple
- Inexperienced
One huge omission you might even see in that Professional listing is any sort of blue colorway. Sierra Blue is just not making its return, which I used to be by no means a fan of, however neither is the attractive Pacific Blue of the iPhone 12 Professional. I’d like to be confirmed flawed, as blue is 100% my favourite colour.
Additionally, as a little bit of a rumor killer, there had been discuss of a high-end titanium mannequin, which has been shot down attributable to it being too costly and too difficult to mass produce. To again this up, a earlier leak from Apple leaker Jioriku additionally famous the colour choices for the iPhone 14, that are just like what yeux1122 has outlined.
New options
In keeping with the submit, two essential options are coming to the most recent iPhones, which we’ve been hoping to see for some time. First, a stronger MagSafe magnet for attaching to equipment, as a result of whereas this technique is nice, it’s actually not good.
With instances on, the magnets might be weakened considerably, to the purpose that the iPhone can begin to slip off wi-fi chargers. With stronger magnetism, this could resolve the difficulty.
Second, with the incoming A16 Bionic chip within the 14 Professional and Professional Max, Apple might introduce improved thermal administration within the type of a vapor thermal chamber. Below stress, iPhones have been getting scorching for some time now, and I can solely think about how this cutting-edge chipset will generate extra warmth than ever earlier than.
Higher cooling will enhance efficiency, which shall be warmly welcomed by the prosumer neighborhood.
New considerations
Right here’s the place the dangerous information begins. In fact, the dearth of a blue colour within the Professional fashions will damage for some (together with me), however these two rumors shall be extra painful for certain.
It begins with the dearth of a 2TB storage choice. That additional storage could be an enormous assist for many who use this for loads of video seize, corresponding to YouTubers and even individuals who whip out their telephones for an alternate angle on set.
There appears to be a contradiction in Apple’s Professional telephone, because the video seize is second to none, however the storage choices don’t make it handy to execs. However even worse, the bottom mannequin should still be simply 128GB, though the $100 worth hike appears to be locked.
This goes towards different rumors that the lowest-end iPhone 14 Professional would double the storage to 256GB and makes that worth bounce a lot tougher to swallow — regardless of how a lot Apple talks about inflation.
Outlook
One apparent truth we all know is that the iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Professional are going to do gangbusters. There’ll all the time be hundreds of thousands of consumers, however whether or not they are going to be pleased with this information or not is up within the air.
You’ll be able to sense the trepidation amongst our personal group as nicely, with Darragh Murphy voicing why he’ll skip the iPhone 14, and Mark Anthony Ramirez mentioning how the worth enhance goes to be damaging.
However these are rumors and leaks, so we will’t say whether or not they’re 100% true. Solely time will inform, and there’s nonetheless loads of time for Apple to step again from the ledge of greed.
