The speculated pill-shaped hole-punch cutout image for the iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max has reappeared on the internet. Apple maintains that the two-hole design seen in the illustration is unique.
A few days ago, a developer named Jeff Grossman released a photograph of an iPhone 14 Pro prototype with a pill-shaped hole-punch cutout, sparking this development. Many sources claim that Apple will use a hole-punch display with Face ID technology hidden behind the surface.
According to the renderings provided by Ross Young, CEO of Display Supply Chain Consultants (DSCC), the pill-shaped cutout on the iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max models will feature two holes and will “not be comparable to all the pill models from Huawei.”
A pill-shaped notch was reportedly discovered in an iPhone 14 Pro prototype, however, only one lens was visible. According to Young, both hole-punch cuts would be visible on the iPhone 14 versions.
Last week, leaker LeaksApplePro said that the iPhone 14 would cost $799 (about Rs. 59,000), the iPhone 14 Max would cost $899 (roughly Rs. 66,400), the iPhone 14 Pro would cost $1,099 (roughly Rs. 81,200), and the iPhone 14 Pro Max would cost at least $1,199. (roughly Rs. 88,600).
According to the source, this is due to increasing production costs. “The difference between the [iPhone 14 Max and the iPhone 14 Pro ought to be more than $100,” he adds. On his podcast ‘Power On,’ Apple analyst Mark Gurman also claimed that he expects the notch would be removed from some iPhones by 2022.
