The iPhone 14 series prices have been leaked ahead of Apple's expected September launch, and the numbers suggest the entire lineup will cost more than its predecessor. Apple Leaks Pro claims all four models — iPhone 14, iPhone 14 Max, iPhone 14 Pro, and iPhone 14 Pro Max — will see price hikes, and the long-running Mini variant is being dropped entirely in favor of a new Max option.
iPhone 14 Series Prices: What the Leak Reveals
According to the leaked figures, the base iPhone 14 will start at $799 (approximately Rs 60,000). These prices are for the US market; Apple typically launches iPhones in India at Rs 5,000–10,000 higher than the US equivalent.
| Model | US Price (Leaked) | Approx. India Price |
|---|---|---|
| iPhone 14 | $799 | ~Rs 60,000 |
| iPhone 14 Max | $899 | ~Rs 76,000 |
| iPhone 14 Pro Max | $1,199 | ~Rs 92,000 |
The most notable shake-up in the lineup is the removal of the iPhone Mini. Instead of a compact 5.4-inch option, Apple is expected to slot the iPhone 14 Max at $899 (~Rs 76,000) — giving buyers a larger screen at a mid-tier price. The flagship iPhone 14 Pro Max is pegged at $1,199 (~Rs 92,000).
Design and Display: Pill-Shaped Hole Punch Replaces the Notch
Apple fans were largely disappointed by the minimal design changes in the iPhone 13 series. For the iPhone 14 series, expectations are higher, though major structural redesigns are still not widely anticipated. What is expected, however, is a meaningful front-panel update: a pill-shaped hole-punch cutout in place of the familiar notch. This change would bring Apple's notch design philosophy closer in line with several Android flagships and give the display more usable screen real estate.
Camera Upgrades: 48 MP Lens and 8K Video on Pro Models
Camera improvements are among the most talked-about upgrades for the Pro lineup. The iPhone 14 Pro models are expected to feature a triple rear camera system with a 48-megapixel primary lens, accompanied by 12-megapixel ultrawide and 12-megapixel telephoto lenses. Topping the camera specs is rumored 8K video recording support on the top-tier model, a significant leap from the current 4K capability.
Battery and Connectivity
Apple is also expected to improve battery capacity across the iPhone 14 lineup. Last year, satellite calling was rumored for iPhones but did not materialize. As of the latest reports, it remains unclear whether satellite connectivity will make an appearance in the iPhone 14 series either.
