Currently, Apple uses the same old 12MP sensor for the primary lens of its iPhone models. The height of the camera bump on the current iPhone 13 Pro and 13 Pro Max is 3.60mm tall, according toApple’s guidelines for accessory makers. However,according to the latest schematics, the iPhone 14 Pro and 14 Pro Max’s rear camera bump would be 4.17mm tall, which is a significant increase.
Other than these, the upcoming iPhone 14 series is expected to bring major improvements in theRAManddisplay department. However, as per Ming-Chi Kuo’s report, Apple will offer its new A16 Bionic chiponly with the higher-end iPhone 14 models. The standard iPhone 14 and the iPhone 14 Max will pack the current A15 Bionic chipset. So, what are your thoughts about the iPhone 14 series?
