The iPhone 14 series is finally here, bringing with it some design tweaks, new cameras, and better performance.
The wait is over — the iPhone 14 series is finally here. Apple unveiled its latest and greatest iPhones at its “Far Out” September 7 hardware event. Turns out, most of the leaks were true — the phones offer some major upgrades, along with some smaller tweaks that should offer a better experience overall.
Let’s get the big ones out of the way — all iPhone models sport an upgraded camera and come in some cool new colors. The iPhone Mini is gone — and instead, Apple has unveiled the new iPhone 14 Plus, which is the same size as the iPhone 14 Pro Max. Speaking of Pro, both Pro models now have cutouts in favor of a notch, giving you that extra bit of screen real-estate while still offering Face ID and a great front-facing camera.
Those are the highlights — but there’s a lot more to the announcements too. Here’s everything you need to know about the new iPhone 14 series — including the iPhone 14, iPhone 14 Plus, iPhone 14 Pro, and iPhone 14 Pro Max.
Thankfully, the rumored price hike for the iPhone 14 turned out to be untrue. The standard iPhone 14 comes at $799. The iPhone 14 Plus comes at $899. The iPhone 14 Pro costs $999. And, the iPhone 14 Pro Max costs $1,099. The iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus are now available for pre-order, with full availability on September 16 for the iPhone 14, and October 7 for the iPhone 14 Plus. The iPhone 14 Pro and Pro Max are also now available for pre-order, with availability on September 16.
Here’s a rundown of where you can get the latest iPhone models. All carriers offer all four of the phones for pre-order, and
Apple introduced a relatively large redesign for the iPhone 12 — and usually, the company keeps designs around for three cycles. In other words, as expected, Apple hasn’t completely redesigned the iPhone for the iPhone 14 series. That doesn’t mean there aren’t tweaks to the devices, but the overall look and shape remain the same.
The standard iPhone 14 looks pretty much the same as the standard iPhone 13. It has the flat-edged design and diagonally-aligned camera lenses on the back. Perhaps the biggest difference is the color selection — the iPhone 14 is available a new blue and purple color, along with the Midnight and Starlight models. And, there’s a Product(RED) model, as in previous years.
The iPhone 14 Plus, of course, is a new device, but the actual design is nothing new.
