On Wednesday, Apple will hold a traditional autumn event, where iPhone 14 phones and the new generation of Apple Watch will be presented. Rumor has it that the iPhones will be more expensive and the Apple Watch will benefit from a larger screen Pro model. There will be four new iPhone models: two with a 6.1-inch screen and two with a 6.7-inch screen. The most expensive iPhone in the US can cost $ 1,700.
The event will take place at 20:00 (Romanian time) and will be broadcast live from the Apple Park campus.
Apple sold more than 1.5 billion iPhones in 15 years, peaking in the fourth quarter of 2020: about 90 million. In the worst quarters, the company received a turnover of more than 25 billion dollars from the sale of the iPhone, and in the best (October-December) 70 billion dollars.
In the fall of 2020, the 5G model was introduced, and the average selling price of the iPhone increased by almost $200. For example, in almost three years, the average sales price has increased from almost $783 to $954, according to US Consumer Intelligence data. Research partners.
On average, iPhone owners change their phone every three years.
It looks like Apple will also introduce the Apple Watch Series 8, which may have a skin temperature sensor. The big news, however, will be the launch of a Pro model with a bigger screen and more features.
There are several rumors about what will change in the new iPhones, and one of them is that the Mini model will be eliminated. The iPhone 13 Mini has a 5.4-inch screen, and the iPhone 14 may no longer have a Mini model, but four models (standard and Pro versions, in variants with a 6.1-inch screen, 6, 7, respectively). inches).
So we could have two models with a 6.1-inch screen (iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Pro) and two models with a 6.7-inch screen (iPhone 14 Max and iPhone Pro Max).

The iPhone 13 Pro Max starts at $1,099 to $1,599 (for the 1TB version). There are analysts who say that Apple may add $100 to the price of iPhone 14 phones.
Of course, the iPhone 14 will have a more powerful processor, and one would expect the battery to have better autonomy. Other reports suggest significant improvements in night photography. There are also various rumors related to possible new special features, but it remains to be seen whether they will be confirmed or not.
It also looks like the new iPhones will ditch the notch in favor of in-screen cutouts for the front-facing camera and TrueDepth sensor for Face ID.
