The iPhone 14 has been tipped to sport a 48-megapixel camera and 8GB of RAM, a upgrades that would requite it on-paper specs to challenge the best Android phones.

That'due south co-ordinate to a research annotation from Haitong International Securities (via MacRumors), from analyst Jeff Pu, who noted that both the rumored iPhone fourteen Pro and iPhone fourteen Pro Max, could get a 48MP wide-angle photographic camera, plus 12MP ultrawide and telephoto lenses. That would be a large footstep up from the 12MP main lens currently available in iPhone 13 Pro.

Kuo claimed in that location would be ii different sizes of iPhone xiv, vi.ane-inch and vi.7-inch, and we later heard this would involve iPhone 14, iPhone 14 Pro, and 'Max' versions of both phones. That's right, there may not be an iPhone 14 mini.

Pu besides predicts that iPhone 14 Pro models will accept 8GB of RAM, upward from the 6GB plant in the iPhone 13 Pro; that would requite the phones a similar amount of RAM to the likes of the Samsung Galaxy S21. Nonetheless, Apple's arroyo to efficiency and tight control of both hardware and software has meant its iPhones have been able to lucifer or beat flagship Android phones even with less onboard RAM. So information technology could do a lot more than with an extra 2GB of RAM, further making the iPhone a performance powerhouse.

On top of this, Pu too claims that all four iPhone 14 models will offering a 120Hz refresh rate, which is currently restricted to the Pro iPhone 13 models.

Despite information technology being quite early, we're already starting to get a motion-picture show of what the iPhone fourteen series might look like. We've already heard recent news that Apple tree may ditch the notch next year, though the fate of TouchID and the long-anticipated under-brandish fingerprint scanner is less clear.

Pu has something of a mixed track record when it comes to Apple. So while some of his predictions sound sensible, nosotros're going to accept to be patient to meet what Apple tree has in shop for u.s.. In the meantime, bank check out our iPhone 14 hub for all the latest news and leaks.
