List of iPhone models

The iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus[a] are smartphones designed, developed, and marketed by Apple Inc. They are the sixteenth generation of iPhones, succeeding the iPhone 13 and iPhone 13 Mini, and was announced during Apple Event, Apple Park in Cupertino, California on September 7, 2022, alongside the higher-priced iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max flagships. The iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus feature a 6.1-inch (15 cm) and 6.7-inch (17 cm) display, improvements to the rear-facing camera, and satellite connectivity for contacting emergency services when a user in trouble is beyond the range of Wi-Fi or cellular networks.[8][9] The iPhone 14 was made available on September 16, 2022 and iPhone 14 Plus was made available on October 7, 2022 respectively, and was launched with iOS 16.[5] Pre-orders for the iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus began on September 9, 2022.[10]

The iPhone 14 Plus replaced the iPhone 13 Mini from last year, dropping the "Mini" moniker in favour of the "Plus" that has not been seen in iPhones since the iPhone 8 Plus in 2017. iPhone 14 and 14 Plus models (as well as iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max models) sold in the United States drop support for physical SIM cards, making them the first iPhone models since the CDMA variant of the iPhone 4 to not come with a discrete SIM card reader.[11]

History

Before announcement

The successor to the iPhone 13 began in development to come with 6.1-inch and 5.4-inch display size options. However, no 5.4-inch display size option of the lower-priced iPhone 14 lineup would be unveiled coming at Apple's "Far Out" event due to both iPhone 12 Mini and iPhone 13 Mini are having a sales failures which would instead focus on the new larger 6.7-inch display size option to be added on the lower-priced iPhone 14 lineup.[12][13] Upon the announcement, the new larger 6.7-inch variant of the lower-priced iPhone 14 model have finally named "iPhone 14 Plus" which it was previously named "iPhone 14 Max" according to the early released rumors.[14][15]

iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus were officially announced at Apple's "Far Out" event, along with iPhone 14 Pro, iPhone 14 Pro Max, Apple Watch Series 8, Apple Watch SE (2nd generation), Apple Watch Ultra, AirPods Pro (2nd generation) and a new update of Apple Fitness+ via a virtual press conference filmed at Apple Park in Cupertino, California on September 7, 2022.[16][17]

Pre-orders began on September 9, with iPhones available from September 16 for the iPhone 14 and October 7 for the iPhone 14 Plus.[18]

Chipset

The iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus are equipped with the Apple A15 Bionic system on a chip, the same variant used on the 2021 iPhone 13 Pro and 13 Pro Max.[5] The iPhone 14 and 14 Plus feature a 6-core CPU, 5-core GPU, and 16-core Neural Engine.[4]

Display

The iPhone 14 features a 6.1-inch (155 mm) display with Super Retina XDR OLED technology at a resolution of 2532 × 1170 pixels and a pixel density of about 460 PPI with a refresh rate of 60Hz. The iPhone 14 Plus features a 6.7-inch (170 mm) display with the same technology at a resolution of 2778 × 1284 pixels and a pixel density of about 458 PPI. Both models have typical brightness up to 800 nits, and max brightness up to 1200 nits.[4]

Cameras

The iPhone 14 and 14 Plus feature the same camera system with two cameras: one front-facing camera (12MP f/1.9), and two back-facing cameras: a wide (12MP f/1.5) and ultra-wide (12MP f/2.4) camera, with the wide and front-facing cameras having a faster aperture than the iPhone 13. The front facing camera also has autofocus for the first time.[20]

Software

iPhone 14 and 14 Plus ship with iOS 16.

Satellite connectivity

Apple's new Emergency SOS via satellite service for iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Pro models uses the spectrum in L and S bands designated for mobile satellite services by ITU Radio Regulations. When an iPhone user makes an Emergency SOS via satellite request, the message is received by an orbiting satellite operated by Globalstar. The satellite then sends the message down to ground stations located across the globe.[8]

As of November 2022, Globalstar operates a constellation of 24 satellites in low-earth orbit, with plans to enhance this in the future via its partnership with Apple.[8]

The service became available to publics on November 15, 2022. On the same day, Apple announced that it will be extended to France, Germany, Ireland, and the UK in December, 2022.[21]

Criticism

Lack of change from the iPhone 13

A major criticism of the iPhone 14 is that the base model has almost the same specifications of the iPhone 13, including the CPU, which Apple has updated on every new iPhone until now.[22]

Crash Detection false positives

Crash Detection is a feature built into the iPhone 14 that is designed to detect severe car crashes and automatically initiates an emergency phone call 20 seconds after it is detected unless the user cancels it.[23] Since it released, there have been many reports saying that the feature was automatically turned on during rollercoaster rides, due to the fact that the rides suddenly stop after going at high speeds, acting the same way a car crash does.[24][25]
