The iPhone 14 Max could be called the iPhone 14 Plus, the report says

With Apple’s ‘Far Out’ just a few days away, everyone is expecting Apple to come out with a new iPhone model with a large screen in favor of the iPhone Mini. And while most tipsters have suggested that the new model will be called the iPhone 14 Max, a new leak has suggested that the new iPhone will be called the iPhone 14 Plus.

According to a tweet by a user named Tommy Boi, the packaging for the new non-pro variant suggests that the device will be called the iPhone 14 Plus and that the word Max will remain exclusive to the Pro series. A few days ago, a report from 9to5Mac also said that the new model will be called the iPhone 14 Plus and not the iPhone 14 Max, and that the regular iPhone 13 case will also fit the iPhone 14 Plus, suggesting that only the Pro variants will have the updated camera.

It’s not surprising at all, since Apple already does this with its silicon, with the M1 Max chip reserved for the Mac Studio and MacBook Pro. The upcoming iPhone 14 series is also expected to offer 30W fast charging, have satellite connectivity, a periscopic lens, get a smaller i-shaped notch that appears as one when the screen is on, and see a price increase compared to older iterations.

But we will have to wait a few more days to see if the rumor turns out to be true. In addition to the iPhone 14 series, Apple is also expected to announce the Apple Watch Pro, AirPods Pro 2, and Apple Watch Series 8 at the September 7 event.
