There is still about a year left before the release of the iPhone 14 series, but rumours about the next-gen Apple devices have already started circulating. The latest one claims that Apple will double the storage on next year’s iPhone series.
Apple has already doubled the maximum storage on the iPhone 13 this year. The 13 Pro and Pro Max models are coming with 1TB internal storage whereas the storage in iPhone 12 series was capped to 512GB. GSMArena reports that the upcoming Apple 14 lineup may come with 2TB of QLC flash storage.
The new storage option was introduced as a result of new camera features, like the ProRes for videos, which will be available later this year. ProRes videos, as well as 4K 60FPS footage taken on the iPhone, take up a lot more space than standard videos.
Apple’s decision to further increase the maximum storage on next year’s iPhones is yet unknown, but GSMArena speculates that new camera features are one reason for the bump in the storage capacity.
Users will need more storage on the iPhone 13 Pro and Pro Max models to record ProRes videos in 4K resolution at 30 FPS. The 128GB version is limited to 1080p 30 FPS ProRes videos.
Other iPhone 14 rumours
Apple usually doesn’t offer additional storage configurations and when it does, as with new camera functions this year, it has a specific reason in mind. Instead of focusing on camera advancements, the iPhone 14 is believed to focus more emphasis on a full redesign that eliminates the notch.
According to Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, the iPhone 14 lineup would include two 6.1-inch and 6.7-inch versions, signalling the end of the smaller 5.4-inch form factor.
Apple is reported to use a hole-punch design for Face ID instead of a notch on the higher-end iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max models, which are 6.1 and 6.7 inches in size, respectively. The prospect of higher-end variants with titanium bodies and a vapour chamber heating system is also there.
