The "iPhone 14" series scheduled to be released in the fall of 2022

Apple holds a special event every fall. So we're taking a cycle to announce new iPhones. Therefore, it is almost certain that the new iPhone 14 series will be announced in the fall of 2022.

The iPhone 13 series inherits the past iPhone 12 series in terms of design. I felt that there was little change in the look of the pad, but perhaps the iPhone 14 will bring about even greater changes than ever before.

Rumors about the specs of the iPhone 14

The first thing I'm curious about is the specs! Here we will introduce the specs of the iPhone 14 that have been rumored and leaked so far.

iPhone 14 design and body

First of all, there are rumors of a change in the body material. The body of the current iPhone is made of stainless steel or aluminum, but next year's iPhone 14 series could feature a high-end model with a new titanium alloy chassis.

Titanium is lightweight, highly rigid, and less likely to cause allergies, so it might be the perfect material for smartphones that you always carry around.

iPhone 14 display

The 2022 iPhone 14 released by Apple will have the iPhone 14 Max and iPhone 14 Pro Max, and the compact mini will be discontinued. I'm doing it.

The newly set iPhone 14 Max has a display size of 6.7 inches and uses an organic EL display. Rumor has it that the refresh rate will support ProMotion at 120Hz.

ProMotion with 120Hz refresh rate installed on all iPhone 14 series models?

According to analyst Jeff Pu, all models in the iPhone 14 series will use ProMotion displays.

Rumors surfaced that 120Hz ProMotion is only Pro (2022/1/20)

It seems to be going back and forth. There is information that the 120Hz ProMotion display will be adopted only for the iPhone 14 Pro model because the production of organic EL displays cannot keep up.

iPhone 14 chip

According to Apple's naming convention so far, the iPhone 14 should be equipped with the "A16 Bionic" chip. And that could be N4P (5nm process) announced by TSMC on October 26, 2021.

The detailed specs are still unknown, but the iPhone's processing power has evolved steadily with each generation, so there is no doubt that it will have comfortable operation and powerful processing power. You can expect the battery life to be extended as well.

iPhone 14 camera

The iPhone 14 camera is expected to receive a major update. There are rumors that the iPhone 13 will go from 12 million pixels to 48 million pixels.

At the same time as it evolved to 48 million pixels, there were also rumors that 8K video recording would be possible.

Sony and TSMC cooperate on 48-megapixel sensor?

The iPhone's camera sensor has 12 million pixels and has been stationary for about 7 years. There are rumors that the 2022 iPhone 14 Pro will be equipped with a 48-megapixel camera sensor, and it is rumored that this camera sensor will be manufactured by Sony and TSMC tags.

I have a feeling that it will be an iPhone with a lot of spirit.

The number of pixels increased for the first time in 7 years? The iPhone 14 Pro may have a Sony 48-megapixel camera sensor!

The iPhone's camera sensor has 12 million pixels and has been stationary for about 7 years. That's the 48-megapixel camera sensor for the 2022 iPhone 14 Pro...

iPhone 14 storage capacity

In the iPhone 13, you could choose storage up to 1TB, but there are rumors that the iPhone 14 will reach 2TB. This allows Apple to switch to QLC's flash storage for a 2TB option. claims of foreign media.

iPhone 14 Pro design blueprints leaked? (2022/3/7)

An image that looks like a design blueprint for the iPhone 14 Pro has been leaked overseas, suggesting that the iPhone 14 Pro will be equipped with a punch-hole camera and a built-in Face ID.

Touch ID for fingerprint authentication is back on iPhone 14?

The big expectation for the iPhone 14 is the return of the fingerprint authentication Touch ID function.

Nowadays, it's not uncommon for Android smartphones to have an in-screen fingerprint sensor. And it's expected every year for the iPhone as well. Especially in the current era where the corona disaster continues and wearing a mask is the norm, the iPhone 14 will come with a fingerprint authentication Touch ID, right? I'd like to think so, but at the moment the wind direction is suspicious.

According to a report from a well-known analyst, Touch ID will be installed, but only the Pro series, which is a high-end model.

There are also rumors that the entire iPhone 14 series will have a fingerprint sensor on the display and Touch ID will be available. I want the fingerprint authentication back!

Will the iPhone 14 have USB-C?

iPhone only! So, even though other devices have converted to USB-C, only the iPhone series stubbornly continues Lightning, but with the iPhone 14, finally! at last! Long-awaited! You may achieve USB-C conversion! I've heard rumors.

However, the content is like ``The iPhone 14 Pro will eliminate the Lightning port and adopt the USB-C port,'' so if you want USB-C, you might have to aim for the Pro series.

I think USB-C is better for the Pro series for high-speed transfer of videos, etc., but I'm not the only one who wants a common specification for the iPhone 14 series. I can only hope that Apple will reconsider before the announcement...

Assumed lineup of iPhone 14

The iPhone 13 had four lineups: "iPhone 13 mini", "iPhone 13", "iPhone 13 Pro" and "iPhone 13 Pro Max", but apparently the mini series is selling well. It doesn't look good...

Because of this, the iPhone 14 may lose the small mini series? There is also a theory that In other words, there are four models: the 6.1-inch iPhone 14/iPhone 14 Pro, the 6.7-inch iPhone 14 Pro Max, and the newly added iPhone 14 Max. Of course, it's still a rumor, so don't give up on the mini faction.

Assumed start date for reservations for iPhone 14

The 2021 iPhone 13 series will be announced on September 15th (Wednesday), and reservations will start on September 17th (Friday). Assuming the same schedule will be followed this year, the iPhone 14 will be announced on September 14, 2022 (Wednesday), and reservations will start on September 16! Let me predict.

I'm sorry if I'm wrong because it's an expectation! We'll let you know as soon as we receive an invitation to the event!

iPhone 14 price forecast

The iPhone has several price variations depending on the storage size, and the larger the storage size, the higher the price. For reference, the prices of the iPhone 13 series are below.

< th>iPhone 13 Pro Max
Storage / Model NameiPhone 13 miniiPhone 13iPhone 13 Pro

Depending on the yen exchange rate at the time of release, the iPhone 14 series will have roughly the same pricing. It is expected that However, since the appearance of the 2TB model is rumored, the price may be 250,000? Gokuri….

Should I buy an iPhone 13 or wait until an iPhone 14? Even the current iPhone 13 is insanely comfortable, fast, and convenient. But what to do when you already hear rumors of an iPhone 14! I can nod that I hold my head. So, here I would like to talk about my personal thoughts on why you should buy the iPhone 13 and why you should wait until the iPhone 14.

Why you should buy the iPhone 13

First of all, it's hard not to have a battery... It's slow and painful... And if the current iPhone and Android are becoming unusable, I will never regret reaching for the iPhone 13.

As I said earlier, the comfort of the current flagship model is truly amazing. The camera is beautiful, the battery lasts well, and you can choose from three sizes. The cheapest iPhone 13 mini starts at 86,800 yen, and considering the performance of the A15 chip installed, the cost-effectiveness is outstanding.

Also, the iPhone has a high resale value, so buy it now and be happy, and sell it when the iPhone 14 comes out! I think it's good to have a short-term relationship. If every day can be happy and stress-free, I wonder if there is anything better than this.

Reasons to wait for the iPhone 14

To summarize the rumors so far, the iPhone 14 series has been the biggest update in the last few years, including changes in body materials, notch changes, and authentication methods. I feel like I'm going to visit.

At the same time, there is a possibility that these major changes will only come to the top Pro series, so we will endure the replacement and save the budget for the iPhone 14 Pro series! is also the correct option.

Welcoming the latest iPhone experience with a high-end model with high functionality. I think it will be a wonderful experience.

So which one would you choose? Either way, the iPhone is nice!
