Apple debuts iPhone 14 for $799 and iPhone 14 Pro starting at $999
Apple (AAPL) has debuted its iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Pro. Announced during the company's Far Out event at its Cupertino, Calif., headquarters on Wednesday, the iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Pro come in standard and larger Plus and Max models, respectively.
The 6.1-inch iPhone 14 starts at $799 and hits the market Sept. 16, while the 6.7-inch iPhone 14 Plus starts at $899. The iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max — also available on Sept. 16 — will set you back a bit more thanks to their 6.7-inch displays, costing $999 and $1,099, respectively.
Apple isn't releasing an iPhone mini this time around, as it did with the iPhone 12 and iPhone 13. Instead, the company is releasing just two sizes for its latest devices.
The new iPhones run on iOS 16, which includes updates like the ability to edit text messages and a new customizable lock screen that can display specialized app updates without making you unlock your phone first. The new phones diverge from Apple's long-standing naming conventions in an attempt to distinguish the Pro phones from their none-Pro stablemates.
Big display changes
The iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max feature reworked displays that do away with the oft-maligned notch that houses the phone's Face ID tech and front camera in favor of a new pill-shaped cutout.
The cutout also serves as a space called the Dynamic Island, which can provide key information about your phone. It expands if you get an alert, shows you if you're using Focus mode, and tells you when your AirPods are connected. It also stays active if you're using apps like the timer, or provide you with information about sports scores and how far away your ride share is.
The iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus keep the notch.
The iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max also get thinner bezels and brighter displays for a peak brightness of 2000 nits, twice as much as prior models. What's more, the Pros get Apple's new always-on display that can provide information without having to unlock your phone, such as data from your widgets and apps. Unlike other handsets, Apple's always-on display is full color rather than just black and white.
