It's a new year, and it's time for a new iPhone! On the one hand, the talks on Apple's latest iPhone 13 and IOS updates are still going strong, and on the other, rumour millions are swirling about Apple's next smartphone-iPhone 14. Hole-pinch is commonly seen across Android phones.

Apple's TrueDepth camera system, available on iPhones with face ID, crams several sensors into a small hole at the top of the screen. There is a dot projector, an infrared camera, a flood illuminator, and an infrared receiver. A speaker, faceTime selfie camera, and proximity sensor are also included in the TrueDepth camera.

It sounds impossible to fit these many elements into a tiny circular cut out on display. According to one rumour, a few iPhone models may retain the notch, dispite a hole-punch design as the face ID hardware will go behind the display.

IPhone 14 expected design

In terms of design, it is likely to be a hybrid of both iPhone 12 and iPhone 4 with flat sides made of Titanium, making it more robust than early iPhone models. In the back, it may retain the glass surface.

According to a Korean website, the Elec, iPhone 14 Pro will feature a 6.06-inch display and iPhone 14 Max will come with a 6.7-inch display. The Cupertino-based company may integrate low-temperature polycrystalline oxide (LTPO) OLED panels with a 120Hz Promotion Technology for both variations for iPhone 14. The report also said that LG supplies OLED panels to Apple for the first time. This is not very unlikely considering that LG has provided LCD panels to Apple in the past.

There are wide expectations in terms of camera design in iPhone 14. However, it is unsure if all variations will feature a 48MP lens. IPhone 14 is likely to come with Apple's A16 Bionic chipset. According to Jon Prosser, a tech analyst, iPhone 14 is more likely to keep its lighting ports. Sides iPhone 14, Apple may roll out three new smartwatches in 2022. The first expectations are Apple Watch Series 8, 2nd generation Apple Watch SE, and a new rugged version for athletes.
