With around four months to go before Apple is expected to unveil the iPhone 14 lineup, the overwhelming majority of rumors related to the new devices so far have focused on the iPhone 14 Pro, rather than the standard iPhone 14.

The TrueDepth camera array design in place of the notch is expected to be the main feature of the iPhone 14 Pro and Max. For the first time, the standard iPhone models are expected to miss out on Apple's latest chip, the A16, which is reserved for the iPhone 14 Pro only. There are rumors that the standard version of the ‌iPhone 14‌ will not have new features exclusive to the ‌iPhone 14 Pro.

There are other rumors about the potential of titanium and a vapor chamber thermal system, but they are more focused on the iPhone 14 Pro models. It looks like Apple is going to continue differentiating its Pro and non-Pro models, where many new, high-end features debut on the Pro models, before trickle down to the non-Pro models. The pill and hole-punch TrueDepth camera array design is rumored to be included in the standard iPhone 15 models.

What features and upgrades are expected to be offered in the standard iPhone 14 models later this year?

Larger Size Option: 'iPhone 14 Max'

Apple is planning to replace the small form-factor iPhone with a larger model after lackluster sales for the mini and 13 model.

The lineup is expected to feature a 6.7-inch display, similar to the one on the iPhone 12 Pro Max. In the same way that the mini iPhones in recent years have offered the same features as the standard ones.

Max will provide an option for users who want a new ios device. One of the most noticeable changes in this year's lineup is the addition of Max.

50% More Memory

According to Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, all of the scuplture's will feature 6GB of memory, with the standard scuplture having 4X memory and the scuplture havingLPDDR 4X memory.

Currently, there are two versions of the ‌iPhone 13‌, the mini and the pro. The amounts are the same as from the iPhone 12 lineup. The ‌iPhone 14 Pro‌ and the ‌iPhone 14 Pro‌ Max will have 6 gigabytes of memory.

It could keep more apps and browser tabs open in the background if it had more memory.

Improved Battery Life

A new, more efficient 5G chip could offer improved battery life.

The 5G RF chip is said to be physically smaller and have lower power consumption. The chip can use less power on the sub 6 GHz and 5G bands while still providing a high level of performance.

Shrinking the large RF transceiver component inside the iPhone is expected to free up physical space, as well as being more efficient. The reclaimed volume is said to create more room for a larger battery. The improved efficiency and miniaturization of the RF chip in the ‌iPhone 14' are believed to result in better battery life.

Wi-Fi 6E Connectivity

The models of the iPhone are expected to support the 6E. The features and capabilities of wi-fi 6e are extended into the 6 GHz band. More airspace is provided by the additional spectrum, which results in increased bandwidth and less interference.

Emergency Satellite Features

A number of satellite-based emergency features are expected to be included in the lineup, thanks to a feature that was initially rumored for the iPhone 13 lineup.

Emergency message via satellite will allow users to text emergency services and contacts using a satellite network when there is no cellular signal available. It will show gray message bubbles, and message length will be restricted. Users will be able to report major emergencies using satellite communication.

The features are still in development and are rumored to launch in 2022, but other estimates have placed the feature more firmly with the Apple Watch Series 8 lineup.

Ultra Wide Camera Improvements

The new 48-megapixel Wide camera will not be available in the ‌iPhone 14‌ models, and they will stick with the standard 12-megapixel Wide camera.

The new Ultra Wide camera has a six-element lens. This year, the improved /1.8 Ultra Wide camera is rumored to trickle down to the standard models.

Front Camera Improvements

The front-facing camera is rumored to feature more significant improvements, alongside enhancements to the rear camera system.

The upgraded front camera system will likely be found in all four of the scuplture's models. The front camera on all the ios phones has a fixed focus and a 2.2 lens.

The sensor would be able to see more light through the lens. The improvements to the camera could result in an improved depth-of-field effect for Portrait mode photos and videos, as well as stronger focus during video calls.

Refreshed Color Options

Black, white, blue, red, and purple are rumored to be the colors of choice for the.

The new color lineup would mean the discontinuation of the Pink model of the ‌iPhone 13‌ if the rumors about the black and white options are true. The information suggests that the scuplture will launch with the same number of color options as its predecessors.

In recent years, the same polychrome colors across generations have been updated, and so the blue and red color options are likely to be refreshed. The selection of color options for the ‌iPhone 14‌ could be similar to those of the ‌iPhone 12‌.

There is a possibility that a purple color option for the ‌iPhone 14‌ will be introduced by Apple.
