According to the phonearena website, Apple will present a new phone called the iPhone 14 Plus, which will come within the upcoming iPhone group with a large screen and size, but with different specifications and a lower cost than usual.
Apple had abandoned the iPhone Plus name since the iPhone 8 Plus 5 years ago, but it seems that Apple is determined to revive the Plus name again.
The source explains that the American company plans to re-use the “Plus” moniker again to replace “Max”, which is called the largest and most expensive iPhone models. But with slightly different accounts.
Based on this report, and since Apple is preparing to launch four iPhone 14 models in September of this year 2022, their names will be as follows:
- iPhone 14
- IPhone 14 Go
- iPhone 14 Plus
- iPhone 14 Pro Max
What is the difference between iPhone 14 Plus and Max?
According to the Korean Naver website, the iPhone 14 Plus will be the name of the cheaper model, which will come in a size of 6.7 inches and a screen of the type LTPS OLED.
As for the regular version, which is known as the iPhone 14, it will have a 6.1-inch screen with a dual rear camera.
Also, one of the reasons behind reusing the Plus name is that the user may fall into confusion as a result of the similarity in the name between the iPhone 14 Max and iPhone 14 Pro Max models, so I decided to dispense with Max and use Plus.
The Plus name is a better option because the iPhone 14 Pro Max features a triple camera at the back, while the Plus will come with only two cameras, so it will be easy for users to differentiate between them immediately.

Moreover, the iPhone 14 Plus may come with a larger battery than the rest of the lineup and it will be powered by the A15 Bionic processor, not the A16 that is expected to be used with the iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max.
Other rumors point to major changes in the iPhone 14 Pro models in particular, as the bump is expected to be replaced by a new hole and hole that houses the Face ID sensors and the front camera.
The new Pro models will also feature the faster and newer A16 chip and a 48-megapixel rear camera lens. With support for 8K video recording, the standard iPhone 14 models are said to retain the A15 chip and a 12-megapixel camera.
Finally, Apple’s suppliers have begun shipping components for the iPhone 14 family, which is expected to be launched in September, as usual. Those components are sent to manufacturers like Foxconn for final assembly of iPhone 14 models over the next few months.
