Apple is all set to release the iPhone 14 next month and ahead of the launch, rumors about the smartphone are doing the rounds on the internet. While we have a fair idea of what the Apple iPhone 14 specs are, the company hasn’t confirmed anything yet. However, here are five reasons why the iPhone 14 could be the best flagship smartphone launched in 2022 and drive sales for Apple through 2023.
Five reasons why the iPhone 14 will be the best flagship of 2022
performances
First, let’s talk about performance. This year, Apple is expected to stick with the A15 Bionic chip for the iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Max. However, the A15 Bionic itself is a very powerful chip. It has been a year since it came out and other companies have not been able to match the performance given by the processor. Moreover, since the processor has been in the market for quite some time, users can expect it to come with better optimization.
The iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max should come with a powerful chip, the A16 Bionic. Although the rate of improvement is unknown at this time, Apple outdoes itself every year. In addition, the company is also said to use a faster type of storage and RAM in the new iPhone 14 Pro models. Therefore, there is no doubt that the iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max will be the most powerful smartphones on the market.

This year, Apple is expected to improve the camera sensors as well. According to a report from LeaksApplePro, Apple will use 48MP camera sensors for the first time in the iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max. With the higher resolution camera sensor, the iPhone 14 Pro models will be able to shoot video in 8K resolution. However, the rear cameras on the iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Max may be the same as last year.
However, the company continues to improve its computational photography, and this should benefit the iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Max. Another big improvement the iPhone 14 models could have is an autofocus front camera with a wider aperture for better low-light photos. This feature is already present in some of the flagship smartphones, but Apple should be able to achieve it perfectly.
The battery
Compiling information from multiple sources, the iPhone 14 models should have larger batteries this year. According to a leak from ShrimpApplePro, the Apple iPhone 14 series will come with a higher battery capacity than the iPhone 13. The tipster suggests that the vanilla iPhone 14 will come with a 3,279 mAh battery, which is almost similar to the 3,227 mAh battery in iPhone 13. Next, the new model that could debut with the iPhone 14 line – the iPhone 14 Max is said to have a 4,325 mAh battery.
So the iPhone 14 Pro could come with a 3,200 mAh battery, which seems like a slight increase compared to the iPhone 13 Pro with a 3,095 mAh battery. Last but not least, the iPhone 14 Pro Max may come with a 4,323 mAh battery, which is surprisingly a little less than the 4,352 mAh battery capacity of the iPhone 13 Pro Max. It’s important to mention that the iPhone 13 already had the best-in-class battery backup. With larger batteries, this will only increase.
Now, with the improved battery capacity, Apple can also push faster charging rates with the iPhone 14 series. So far, the iPhone 13 supports 20W fast charging, with evidence of unofficial 27W fast charging support. With the iPhone 14, Apple can further improve the charging speed, giving users a great deal of flexibility in terms of charging time.
Display
The iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max are said to feature the next generation of LTPO displays, capable of lowering the refresh rate to 1Hz, increasing efficiency. Therefore, future iPhone 14 Pro models should not only come with the ProMotion display released with the iPhone 13 Pro series, but should improve on it and provide a smoother experience. However, the iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Max may have the same 60Hz panel from the iPhone 13 line.
Apple iPhone 14 Release Date
According to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, Apple is planning to unveil the iPhone 14 lineup on September 7, 2022. As the report mentions, “The new iPhone will kick off a busy fall product season, which will also include many New Macs, low-end and high-end iPads, and three Apple Watch models.” Previously, rumors were circulating online about the iPhone 14 series to be released on September 13, 2022. Although, readers should note that the company has not yet confirmed the dates.
Apple iPhone 14 Price
Leakster Anthony, who goes by @TheGalox on Twitter, tips the iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max specs and price. More importantly, the tweet suggests that the iPhone 14 Pro will start at $1,099. If the prices are in fact correct, the iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max will be at least $100 more expensive than the iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max.
However, this also means that the Indian price of the devices will be even higher as iPhones are priced 30-35% higher in India than in the United States. As of now, the iPhone 13 Pro starts at Rs. 1,19,900 and the iPhone 13 Pro Max starts at Rs. 1,29,900. Converting the leaked iPhone 14/i14 Pro price and adding import duty, the iPhone 14 Pro could be priced around Rs. 1,21,000 and the iPhone 14 Pro Max could cost Rs.1,30,000. in India. It’s important to note that this is purely speculation at this time and does not represent the actual price of the iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max.
