Changes to the design of Apple’s iPhone 14 leaked months ago, but speculation about their performance has turned out to be much more controversial. And now a new leak has put languages to worry about their battery life. Announced by a trusted ShrimpApplePro industry executive, a new Baidu post has released the battery capacity for all iPhone 14 models. iPhone 14 Pro can mean that your money is better spent elsewhere. [06/25 update – Baidu post now removed, this is often seen as a sign of accuracy because accurate data is more sensitive and posters come under significant pressure but it is impossible to know for sure] The performance of the Apple iPhone 14 Pro Max is based on leaked schemas EverythingApplePro The leak analyzes the battery capacities as follows:
iPhone 14 – 3279 mAh (iPhone 13 – 3.227 mAh) iPhone 14 Max – 4325 mAh (N / A) iPhone 14 Pro – 3200 mAh (iPhone 13 Pro – 3,095 mAh) iPhone 14 Pro Max – 4323 mAh (iPhone 3 Pro Max – 4.352 mAh)
The big news comes from the big phones and, if these numbers are correct, there is every chance that the new iPhone 14 Max will surpass the top iPhone 14 Pro Max. Update 27/06: Mark Gurman of Bloomberg published a wealth of information about Apple’s upcoming products, including the iPhone 14 series, in his latest Power On newsletter. In addition to the leaks around a number of new M2-based devices – Mac Mini, Mac Pro and iPad Pro models that will come “later this year” with a variety of M2, M2 Pro, M2 Max, M2 Ultra and M2 Extreme chips , a mediocre Apple Watch 8 was upgraded using the same chipset as the Watch 7, a second-generation HomePod and AirPods Pro, and an A14-based Apple TV – Gurman also provided detailed information on multiple iPhone 14 upgrades. “Like the Apple Watch, the iPhone 14 Pro will be able to display widgets that display weather, calendars, stocks, activities and other data while the screen remains low in brightness and frame rate,” Gurman wrote, adding its weight to the revelation. iOS 16. beta code hinted at earlier this month. Gurman added: “There will be a setting – like the Apple Watch – that prevents sensitive data from appearing on the lock screen for everyone to see.” This would combat one of the major concerns iPhone users have expressed about this feature. Gurman also doubles the industry’s previous leaks by saying that the iPhone 14 Pro models will have “a much improved front camera, a new rear camera system with a 48-megapixel sensor, thinner bezels, a faster A16 chip and a redesigned notch with notch in pill shape for Face ID and camera piercing. ” On the other hand, standard models will create “less excitement” because “Low-tech phones will have the same A15 chip as the iPhone 13, although the 5.4-inch mini will be replaced by a 6.7-inch model. ” Meanwhile, despite the basic iPad switching to USB-C in the fall, Gurman says iPhone 14 models will stay with Lightning for another year with the transition coming in 2023. If the inclusion of a future old-fashioned slot postpones potential upgrades to 2022, only time will tell. 28/06 Update: What will happen will be! A new report from technology site and supply chain Digitimes claims that components have now been finalized for the iPhone 14 series and shipments have begun. Citing sources in Taiwan’s supply chain, Digitimes says parts – which come from many different suppliers – have been sent to Apple’s manufacturing partners, the largest and longest-running of which is Foxconn. These accessories will be stored before mass production begins the next 1-2 months before the traditional release of the series in September / October. The big news from this development is twofold. First, the specifications for the new phones are a lock. Apple has the ability to switch suppliers in the middle of the cycle, but it would only be for similar components (eg same battery capacity, camera resolutions, etc.). The company has never improved the specifications of the iPhone for any model since the start of sales. This would undermine buyers’ confidence and jeopardize the creation of a “wait and see” upgrade approach. This can be seen even when it has a detrimental effect, such as when it became clear that the battery life of the iPhone 12 Mini was poor. Instead, Apple waited until the iPhone 13 Mini to make improvements. Secondly, the leaks around the iPhone 14 series should now be intensified. This may seem strange given the large number of leaks, but the security that Apple has imposed up to this point tends to go out the window when thousands of production lines and tens of thousands of workers start mass production. Expect photos of the components and the phones themselves at various stages of the production process to start leaking in the coming weeks and months. Where the potential controversy over iPhone 14 models lies is the biggest difference between the lines this year. The iPhone 14 Pro models will feature a new i-shaped dual-cut screen, which has a polarized view, an even bigger camera bend, and a next-generation chipset that could be much faster than its predecessor. On the contrary, it will be difficult to distinguish the iPhone 14 and iPhone 13. Its successor is expected to have identical exterior design, camera specifications and chipset. The new phones may have 50% more RAM, but all indications are that the standard models will be the most gradual iPhone upgrade to date. Plus, if you’re frustrated with it and want to go for Pro, it looks like you’ll pay more. Apple has widened the gap between the iPad, Mac, MacBook and even AirPods in recent years and iPhones are playing here. It’s a strategy that may not be popular worldwide, but there is no doubt about its success. The reason for this is not the fractional difference in the capacities of their batteries but what they will be asked to do. IPhone 14 Pro models will have 48 megapixel sensors, which means that they will process file sizes 4 times larger than the 12 MP sensor maintained by standard models. They are also expected to have more RAM which means higher efficiency but increased battery consumption. Whether the new performance of the Pro-exclusive A16 chipset and the new DDR5 RAM can offset this remains to be seen, but with the iPhone 14 Max expected to cost $ 300 less, it could be a tempting downgrade for those are worried about the reported price increases of the iPhone 14 Pro. The iPhone 14 Max is also a dramatic improvement over its predecessor, the iPhone 13 Mini (2,406 mAh) for which battery life was its biggest drawback. The Apple iPhone 14 series is based on multiple leaks EverythingApplePro Looking wider, the small increases in battery life to the rest of the range are also impressive. After being overshadowed by big Android phones for several generations, the iPhone 13 series was a big leap forward and there was hope that Apple would like to extend its lead over the competition, having seen the success of M1-based MacBooks Exceed battery life is delivered by competitors based on Intel and AMD. It is worth noting that ShrimpApplePro has some doubts about the data, writing “Hmmm” afterwards, but the leaking user also has a history of sharing only accurate information. Thus, the reaction may be more to Apple’s strategy than to the leak itself. This strategy would definitely be a bet. Ever since the iPhone 6 Plus was released in 2014, Apple’s largest and most expensive model has always had the best battery life. This now seems to be seriously threatened and makes the iPhone 14 Max much more attractive. Plus, with the Pro models set to leave Lightning for USB-C in 2023, skipping the iPhone 14 Pro models in 2022 altogether may just be the smartest option.
