Some intriguing new features and upgrades are expected in the iPhone 14 Pro when it takes over from the iPhone 13 Pro this fall. Leaks and reports about the 2019 Pro iPhones reveal a lot more than the 120Hz displays and telephoto cameras of last year’s models, which are likely to be retained.

Even while we’re worried about how dull the normal iPhone 14 will be, the iPhone 14 Pro could get a new punch-hole design, better cameras, an always-on display, and more. This might mean the highest-ever beginning prices for an iPhone, so if you’re considering buying one, start saving now.

iPhone 14 Pro vs. iPhone 13 Pro: price

Both the iPhone 13 Pro and the iPhone 13 Pro Max are already costly phones, at $999/£949 and $1,099/£1,499. According to several sources, the price of both of the Pro models is expected to rise by $100.

When Apple announces the iPhone 14, the iPhone 13 Pro and the iPhone 13 Pro Max are expected to be phased out. This is what occurred to the iPhone 11 Pro and iPhone 12 Pro in prior years. When Apple discontinues iPhone 13 Pro, third-party merchants and phone carriers will likely still have the devices on hand for a while longer.

iPhone 14 Pro vs. iPhone 13 Pro: design

Most rumored changes to the iPhone 14 Pro are said to include a new notch on the front, which will be replaced by two separate cutouts for Face ID sensors.

To get an idea of how it might appear, check out these photographs of supposed iPhone 14 display panels. The redesigned pill-and-punch-hole cutout style would give back more screen real estate to actual pixels, making it less intrusive when using an app in fullscreen mode on the iPhone 13 series.

We had hoped that the back of the iPhone 14 Pro would have a more noticeable new design, but it now appears that it will be nearly identical to the iPhone 13 Pro. To accommodate some reported enhancements, the already-large rear camera hump may get much greater. The iPhone 13 Pro and Pro Max cases don’t appear to fit the iPhone 14 Pro and Pro Max, based on their schematics.

Instead of using USB-C for both power and data transfer, the iPhone 14 Pro should use the Lightning port. However, due to recent changes in EU law and increased desire for comparable laws in the United States, this could alter in the coming year.

Rumor has said that this year’s unique iPhone color will come in a matte-textured form for the Pro models. With a color choice expected to arrive around the middle of 2024 like Apple has done for the iPhone 12 and iPhone 13, we’ll likely see silver, gray, and gold again.

iPhone 14 Pro vs. iPhone 13 Pro: display

This year’s Pro iPhone is expected to have a 6.1-inch screen, while the Pro Max version is expected to have a 6.7-inch screen. Due to a reduction in screen bezels, these screens may actually be larger than the iPhone 13 Pro/Pro Max.

Apple’s first ProMotion adaptive 120Hz screens are found in the new iPhone 13 Pro and 13 Pro Max models, enabling for a smoother, yet more power-efficient, display experience. The iPhone 14 Pro is rumored to have a better version of this technology that can be scaled down to 1Hz instead of 10Hz, according to the latest reports.

In addition to lowering the phone’s power usage, this might enable Apple’s anticipated iPhone 14 Pro always-on display. iOS 16 lock screen widgets may be able to show up on your phone even when it’s locked, allowing you to obtain updates at the touch of a button.

iPhone 14 Pro vs. iPhone 13 Pro: cameras

According to rumors, the iPhone 14 Pro is expected to have a 48MP main camera, which will allow for greater quality or brighter photographs depending on how Apple wants to calibrate it. For the first time ever, Apple could record 8K video on the iPhone 14 Pro.

The ultra-wide and telephoto lenses on the iPhone 14 Pro series’ back cameras appear to be the same as those on the iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max. In order for Apple’s first periscope camera to be ready in time for the release of an iPhone with a zoom capability of more than 3x, it appears that the camera has yet to be developed.

On the other hand, the iPhone 14 Pro may be getting an updated selfie camera with an improved aperture and autofocus. Selfies taken with these should be more vivid and detailed.

iPhone 14 Pro vs. iPhone 13 Pro: chip and performance 

The A15 Bionic chipset in the iPhone 13 Pro will be replaced by the A16 Bionic in the iPhone 14 Pro. Since the normal iPhone 14 won’t get this new technology, the gap between the 14 and 14 Pro could widen much further than in previous years.

Claims of a 5% gain in performance over the iPhone 13 Pro have been attributed to Apple’s use of LPDDR5 RAM, which has a higher bandwidth than previous generations. The same source claims that this new technology will also have an impact on the iPhone’s photographic capabilities and assist extend the battery life of the iPhone 14 Pro.

iPhone 14 Pro vs. iPhone 13 Pro: battery

According to one source, the iPhone 14 Pro is expected to have a larger battery capacity than the iPhone 13 Pro, which hasn’t been confirmed. However, the same source states that the iPhone 14 Pro Max’s performance will be slightly lower than that of the iPhone 13 Pro Max.

As horrible as that sounds, I’m hoping it won’t be the case for the iPhone 14 Pro Maxim. The iPhone 13 Pro Max already had great battery life, so a few milliamp-hours fewer shouldn’t make much of a difference there either. The new chipset offered by Apple may also have improved the efficiency of the phone, allowing it to survive as long as or even longer than last year’s model.

There have been no new claims concerning iPhone 14 charging speeds from rumormongers. Since the iPhone 13 Pro used 20W wired and 15W MagSafe wireless charging technology, we can assume that the iPhone 14 Pro would too.

iPhone 14 Pro vs. iPhone 13 Pro: outlook

The transition from the iPhone 13 Pro to the iPhone 14 Pro appears to be quite significant. Apple’s iPhone 14 Pro is anticipated to stand out from its predecessors thanks to its new notch, 48MP camera, faster CPU, and better always-on display.

However, these adjustments may come at a price, and a raise in prices does not sound good in current economy. In addition, we’re concerned about the punch hole and pill-shaped notch and whether they’ll be as distracting as the current design.

For now, keep an eye on our iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Pro hubs for the latest rumors, and revisit our iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max reviews to get a sense of the merits and weaknesses of those versions.
