Moreover, he said that only two Pro models will be upgraded to the A16 processor, and the iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Max will still be powered by the A15All four new models are likely to come with 6GB of RAM, with the difference being that the iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max use LPDDR 5, and the iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Max use LPDDR 4X.

In this regard, digital blogger Mobile Chip Daren said that Apple has stockpiled chips for the iPhone 14 series, and is preparing to produce 50 million A16 chips and 50 million A15 chips. Currently, the total amount is 100 million.

In addition, from independent sources that Apple has been developing two new iPhone 14 models with A16 chips and two new iPhone 14 models with A15 chips, which is consistent with what Ming-Chi Kuo said this time.

In December last year, Mobile Chip Daren said that not all iPhone 14 series models will be upgraded to the A16 processor, and the iPhone 14 will continue to use the iPhone 13‘s A15 chip. 

It said that the stocking of the 4nm A16 chip in 2022 is only one-third of the A15 processor in 2021, indicating that only one iPhone 14 will use the A16 processor. Among them, Apple’s internal code name for the A16 processor is Crete, and the code name for the A15 processor is Ellis.

In addition to the processor, display industry analyst Ross Young also exposed the screen design of the iPhone 14 series earlier this year. Ross Young said that among the iPhone 14 series models, only the iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max will use a “punch hole + pill” design.

Furthermore, the iPhone 14 Pro models will feature both circular and pill-shaped punch holes near the top of the display, forming an “exclamation mark”-like shape. The circular punch will house a Face ID dot-matrix projector, while the pill-shaped punch is expected to house at least the front camera and the Face ID infrared camera.
