Iphone 14 | Leaker advises against iPhone 13 – and shows us the iPhone 14 Pro Max | apple iphone

Are you looking forward to the presentation of the iPhone 13 on September 14, 2021? The leaker Jon Prosser apparently not. Because somehow he got his hands on some sketches for the iPhone 14. If the pretty look is particularly important to you, you should wait another year. At least if the leaker and his sources are correct here.

“I like chaos”. These are words from the video by Jon Prosser or Front Page Tech that perfectly describe the entire leak. Less than a week before the iPhone 13 is unveiled, he shows us the alleged design of the iPhone 14 Pro Max. For this he hired a designer to create a 3D model from sketches. The full video is at the top of the article. Where he got the supposedly real sketches of the 2022 iPhone from remains unclear. But let’s go into the details:

iPhone 14: The notch disappears (almost)

The first noticeable feature of the putative iPhone 14 Pro Max: the notch is finally gone, as previous rumors predicted. Instead, the 3D model only shows a small hole in the display. A solution that Samsung, for example, also uses. So far, such a narrow design has not been possible for Apple because the 3D facial recognition Face ID requires space on the front. With the iPhone 14, however, the technology should be located under the display. Last but not least, the Galaxy Z Fold 3 shows that cameras under the screen are already a reality – although the photo quality is somewhat lacking here.

According to Jon Prosser, the notch should only disappear on the Pro models. The basic iPhone 14 will allegedly again rely on the wide cut-out in the screen – as will the iPhone 13 series. That wouldn’t be bad, however: This would finally move the Pro and Basic versions a little further apart. For us, the iPhone 12 Pro was a little too close to the iPhone 12 in terms of capability, as you can read in our test.

A modern iPhone 4 with a flat back

Also visible in the video: The volume buttons on the iPhone 14 Pro Max are round. A design that you may still know from the iPhone 4. Otherwise, the angular housing design is again similar to the iPhone 5 and iPhone 4, so little has changed compared to the iPhone 12. Except for the material: The Pro Max is said to be made of titanium.

Also interesting: The camera on the back hardly protrudes from the case at all in the pictures. But the alleged iPhone 14 Pro Max is a bit thicker overall. In addition to the flat back, this could have another advantage: A thicker case also leaves more room for an even larger battery. However, Prosser cannot yet say whether one of these is installed.

Leak with caution

But you should keep calm. Yes, Jon Prosser says that this is where we see the design going into mass production next year. Yes, he was often right with his leaks. But with Apple products in particular, he feels he has made just as many mistakes and made wrong predictions.

If the iPhone 14 Pro Max actually looks like the one in the video, we can expect an exciting iPhone generation in 2022 as well. The design shown here is still nothing more than a rumor. Until we know more, we can look forward to the iPhone 13 on September 14, 2021.
