iPhone 14 tech specs: What features will the iPhone 14 have?

One of the tech community’s favorite games is working out what improvements and innovations Apple will come up with each year for its new iPhones.

Apple iPhone 14 Display

Speaking of displays, the iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max are expected to come with 6.1" and 6.7" ProMotion displays with variable refresh rate.

Yes, we currently expect that only the Pro models will feature screens with a 120Hz refresh rate, whereas the more affordable non-Pro versions will merely come with your standard 60Hz OLED displays, like iPhone 13 pro max display.

Here's what the iPhone 14 series' displays will be in terms of size and features:

•     6.1" iPhone 14 with 60Hz 'slim' notch display
•     6.7" iPhone 14 Max with 60HZ 'slim' notch display
•     6.12" iPhone 14 Pro with 120Hz i-shaped punch-hole display, Always-on Display
•     6.69" iPhone 14 Pro Max with 120Hz i-shaped punch-hole display, Always-on Display

Some rumors claim that iPhone 14 Pro and Pro Max could score always-on displays that show important information on the screen at all times.

Apple iPhone 14 Camera

As per famed Apple insider Ming-Chi Kuo, Apple is planning a massive camera upgrade for the iPhone 14 family.

Notably, Apple is planning to bring a new and much larger sensor for the main camera, a massive 1/1.3-inch 48MP sensor. This sensor is expected to grace the top-tier iPhone 14 Pro and Pro Max flagships.

Apple iPhone 14 Battery and charging

The latest rumors about the iPhone 14 battery sizes are in, and it seems that batteries are growing all across the board, with the exception of the iPhone 14 Pro Max, which will be getting a slightly smaller battery in comparison with its direct predecessor.

The iPhone 14 will reportedly be getting a 3,279mAh battery, which is mostly similar to its predecessor's one, while the iPhone 14 Pro will be getting a 3,200mAh battery cell, a 105mAh increase over the iPhone 13 Pro.

As mentioned, the iPhone 14 Pro Max could be coming our way with a 4,323mAh battery, some 30mAh less than what we had in the iPhone 13 Pro Max.

Finally, the all-new iPhone 14 Max is expected to come with a 4,325mAh battery, technically the largest among the bunch and also the largest battery ever fitted on an iPhone.

Phone	Battery size
iPhone 14 iPhone 14 Max iPhone 14 Pro iPhone 14 Pro Max	3,279mAh (vs 3,227mAh on iPhone 13)     4,325mAh     3,200mAh (vs 3,095mAh on iPhone 13 Pro)     4,323mAh (vs 4,352mAh on iPhone 13 Pro Max)

Apple iPhone 14 Lightning port. No USB Type-C
Apple is expected to switch to USB-C in 2023. But the iPhone 14 coming this year will still use Lightning. The port-less iPhone is rumored to be something Apple is still testing, but it’s several years away at this point. 

Apple is rumored to boost Lightning data transfer rates to USB 3.0 starting with the iPhone 14 Pro this fall, though. USB 2.0 supports transfer speeds of 480 Mbps, while USB 3.0 supports speeds of up to 5 Gbps.

A16 chip

Currently, Apple’s chip partner TSMC is expected to use an enhanced 5nm manufacturing process for the chip in the iPhone 14, likely referred to as the A16.

For the first time ever, Apple is expected to only upgrade the iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max these two models are expected to upgraded to the A16 chip,

While the iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Max will retain the same A15 chip inside the current iPhone 13 lineup.

The A16 chip inside the iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max will be manufactured with the same 5-nanometer process as the A15, which is also the same as the A14.

This limits the year-over-year performance improvements, but it doesn’t mean we won’t see any improvements.
