A comparison between the iPhone 14 and the iPhone 13 is what you need if you’re undecided about purchasing the iPhone 13 or if you simply want to know what the new iPhone for 2022 may look like. Of course, the most of this is just speculation at this point. iPhone 14 speculations are still in the early stages, but there have been enough stories and leaks to give you an idea of what to expect.

Rumors about the iPhone 14’s design have indicated that Apple may remove or reduce the notch on certain versions, while also eliminating the camera bulge on the rear. Even still, there’s a lot more that Apple could do to keep its best phone title in terms of hardware updates, camera enhancements, and even a new model. When comparing the iPhone 14 to the iPhone 12, the changes are even more apparent.

As of this writing, the iPhone 14 and iPhone 13 have been rumoured and leaked to have similar features.

In terms of models and nomenclature, iPhone 14 vs. iPhone 13:

The small might be killed out in favour of the iPhone 14, which could cause quite a stir in the iPhone range as a whole. We’ve previously heard that the iPhone 12 small isn’t doing well, with just 5% of all sales in January 2021 being attributed to it. The iPhone 13 mini isn’t expected to pique much more curiosity either.

The iPhone 14 mini’s replacement? There is a 6.7-inch iPhone Max, thus the 6.1-inch iPhone 14 may be the smallest in the iPhone range. There will be 6.1-inch and 6.7-inch variants of the iPhone 14 Pro.

People’s desires for smaller phones seem to have waned.

iPhone 14 compared. iPhone 13: Design.

With the exception of a smaller notch and a slightly different camera configuration, the iPhone 13 didn’t actually alter much in terms of appearance. According to some early leaks, the iPhone 14 might look quite a bit different.

A punch-hole front camera might replace the iPhone 14’s long-standing notch, according to Apple source Jon Prosser, whose track record on Apple speculations is uneven. Assuming this is true, it’d apply to the iPhone 14 Pro line.

Face ID would need Apple to reduce the size of its Face ID technology, which is no easy task. It seems, though, that Prosser and Apple expert Min-Chi Kuo both agree on this potential shift.

It’s also possible to remove the hump on the back of the iPhone 14 Pro by putting all of the sensors flat with the glass. As a result, the chassis would be somewhat thicker. The reintroduction of spherical volume buttons, as well as a titanium chassis, are also rumoured.

As a result of pressure from the European Union, Apple is said to be considering a USB-C connector and abandoning Lightning. Currently, though, we have our doubts that Apple will release a port-free iPhone anytime soon.

When it comes to price, the iPhone 14 is more expensive than the iPhone 13.

We haven’t heard any reliable speculations about the iPhone 14’s pricing, but if the tiny model is being phased out, we may expect a price bump. To put it another way: The predicted iPhone 14 will start at $799 (the mini cost $699) and the iPhone 14 Max will retail for $899 (also reported). At this moment, all we have is conjecture, although a more recent rumour about price seems to back up our suspicions.

iPhone 14 compared. iPhone 13: Performance and chip comparisons

According to The Information, technological difficulties mean that the iPhone 14 may not have a 3 nanometer chip. A 4nm technology might be used for the anticipated A16 Bionic chip, which would still be an improvement above the 5nm A15 Bionic. According to Digitimes, this is what’s going to happen.

TSMC is also transitioning to a new N4P process based on 5nm, according to Digitimes in the same article. However, even with this improvement, performance is expected to increase by 11%, and power efficiency is expected to increase by 22%.

What matters is that the iPhone 14 should once again be speedier than the finest Android phones.

Touch ID on the iPhone 14 compared. the iPhone 13

This seems like an obvious choice. Masks are still a common sight on public transportation, at airports and even in the movies as we approach 2022.

The iPhone 14 is said to incorporate in-display Touch ID, giving users an alternative to Face ID. This is according to many speculations. Heck, I’d be happy with the current iPad Air’s fingerprint sensor integrated into the power button.

In iOS 15.4’s Face ID, we’re not so confident about the necessity for Touch ID any longer. However, we wouldn’t rule out adding an additional level of biometric security.

Apple iPhone 14 versus. iPhone 13: Comparing the Camera Performance

According to Apple analyst Min-Chi Kuo, the iPhone 14 may include a 48MP wide-angle camera instead of the 12MP primary sensor found on the iPhone 13’s camera.

Even if the Galaxy S21 Ultra has a 108MP sensor, this would be a significant improvement in resolution. While the iPhone 13 Pro Max has a 12MP sensor, it is now the greatest camera phone on the market, even if it only has one lens. More than only the number of megapixels determines the quality of an image.

Apple is said to be planning on a periscope-style zoom camera for the iPhone 14 Pro versions. The 3x optical zoom on the iPhone 13 and 13 Pro Max isn’t as amazing as what the Galaxy S22 Ultra, an Android phone, can do.

The iPhone 14 contrasted. the iPhone 13: 5G

While the iPhone 13 is unquestionably an excellent 5G phone, Apple’s new modem in the iPhone 14 might take things to another level entirely.

Assuming all goes according to plan with Apple’s 2019 purchase of Intel’s modem division. A native Apple modem might make a significant jump in performance or efficiency in the iPhone 14, and we’d want to know how it stacks up against Qualcomm’s 5G modems. First-generation products might be nerve-wracking, but Apple is the only business that can do it right the first time around.

It’ll be fascinating to see how the iPhone 14 compares to the iPhone 13 when more speculations surface, but based on what we know so far, the new iPhone 14 seems to be a significant step forwards in terms of design, specifications, cameras, and more.
