Apple’s new iPhone 14 models are here, and they are currently being revealed on stage during the company’s “Far Out” event held in California. It’s set to be a big year for the iPhone, with not just the new iPhone 14, iPhone 14 Pro, and iPhone 14 Pro Max ready to tempt you, but also a larger version of the normal iPhone 14 called the iPhone 14 Plus.
The iPhone 14 has a 6.1-inch screen while the iPhone 14 Plus has a 6.7-inch screen, but otherwise share basically the same design with flat sides and a dual camera on the back. Apple says the larger screen lets you read more text, or view it in a larger font. The phones are made from aluminum and have Ceramic Shield protective glass over the screen.
Both use Apple’s A15 Bionic processor, the same that was used in the iPhone 13 Pro, while the cameras on the back have been updated. It’s a new 12-megapixel main camera with a larger sensor and pixels, along with an f/1.5 aperture. It’s joined by a 12MP wide-angle camera, and a new 12MP front camera with autofocus and lowlight photography improvements.
The iPhone 14 and 14 Plus also come with a new Emergency SOS Over Satellite feature, where the phone will be able to send emergency messages without a signal, using satellites in the sky. It’ll even let you share your location using the Find My app. The iPhone 14 will cost $799 and be available to pre-order on September 9, then released on September 16. The iPhone 14 Plus will be out a little later on October 7 and cost $899.
We don’t know everything officially yet, although a lot of rumors have spread about the new phones already, as all the exciting details are being revealed while you’re reading this. Check back in a moment for the latest updates, and get ready for a hard decision about which iPhone 14 to buy this year.
