If you're hoping to get the best hardware, now is not the time to buy an Apple device. Apple's developer conference is just around the corner, and there are more rumors about what's on the horizon. If you can hold out another six months and can afford new gear, you should wait for the iPhone 14. The M3 iMac is rumored to have larger display size options, better cameras, and increased processing power. Mark Gurman, who is known for being on the mark with Apple leaks and rumors, highlighted the iPhone 14 in the latest edition of his Power On newsletter, which is ripe with juicy information on what's coming soon from When Apple reveals the details of its next flagship, you might expect this. Apple has switched to an every-three-years rhythm, which is different from the other models. This is the third release since the iPhone 12 and it is likely to be the last before a significant model upgrade. The rounded corners and flat metal edges that have become a staple of iPhone design are expected to be retained in the new device. The notch is likely to make a comeback. You can see Face ID and the front-facing camera there. This is supposed to be Apple's solution until it can fully integrate Face ID and the front-facing camera into the display itself. People who want smaller phones will be able to get the iPhone Mini variant from Apple. Gurman thinks that Apple will offer a 6.1 and 6.7-inch iPhone in both Pro and standard configurations, rather than starting at a 5.4-inch Mini-variant and going up the roster in specs and price. You won't have to pay more for the larger screen if you choose the Pro variant.
The notch isn’t going anywhere
Bigger screens are en route
This boded well for a strategic move from Apple as it shifts its business to better cater to its overseas customer base. In China, the Max is the highest-selling version of the iPhone, and keeping that screen size limited to a particular price point hinders Apple's growth potential within that key market. There is still a market share battle between Apple and Android.
Apple will attempt to differentiate its Pro model phones from its base phones more clearly in the future, in the same way that Google's Pixel lineup offers a much more powerful Pro version and thatSamsung packs it all into its Ultra. Choosing between the Pro and non-Pro models won't just affect cameras or screen size, but will now likely come down to the other specifications.
The premium camera smarts that Apple offers, such as a 48-megapixel sensor for the wide-angle camera, would mean higher-resolution shots from the iPhone's primary lens. There is a rumor that the regular iPhone 14 will only have a 12-megapixel shooter. This sounds like the strategy of the latest phone releases. The S22 Ultra has a high-resolution primary camera that shoots photos using a combination of pixels.
The Pro version of the iPhone will get an increase in the A16 processor, while the non-Pro version will stay on the A15 chip. The supply chain issues have flooded the industry and this sounds like a strategy to help. It's a wonder what the non-Pro versions of the iPhone 14 will offer, as that phone already has the A13 and this generation's best specifications. Why wouldn't someone save money on last year's iPhone 13 Pro and get an improved camera system instead?
Gurman writes that Apple is working on bringing satellite internet to the iPhone. It wouldn't affect whether or not the phone can make calls over satellite networks, but it would help report emergencies or send a short text to an emergency contact when out of range. Apple has been working on bringing this to its lineup.
Globalstar might serve as Apple's satellite provider. The company agreed to buy 17 new satellites to offer continuous satellite services to an unnamed customer. Many people think that the customer is Apple. The feature sounds similar to Apple's AirTags, which creates a proprietary mesh network. Apple can use satellite offerings as a safety offering.
Most of the leaks and rumors are related to Apple's upcoming conference. The company's developer conference will take place in June. We're likely to hear more about what's new from the Apple products.
