Leaked diagrams show the "iPhone 14 Pro" and "iPhone 14 Pro Max" will be thicker and sport the same large camera bump.
A more detailed leak of the "iPhone 14 Pro" shows that Apple won't be changing much about the external dimensions of the iPhone in its next update. However, the pill and hole-punch cutout remain front and center for the pro models.
A known leaker named Max Weinbach has shared apparent diagrams of the "iPhone 14 Pro" and "iPhone 14 Pro Max," complete with measurements in millimeters. When compared to the existing iPhone 13 Pro models, the numbers are near identical.
The recent CAD leaks for the pro models have shown that Apple will stick with the iPhone 13 Pro design, including the camera bump. The notch will be replaced with a hole and pill cutout that houses the Face ID sensor array and the selfie camera.
The slight difference in dimensions may be attributable to reduced bezel thickness around the display and the lack of a notch. Both devices are also slightly thicker by 0.2mm.
Dimensions | "iPhone 14 Pro" | iPhone 13 Pro | "iPhone 14 Pro Max" | iPhone 13 Pro Max |
---|---|---|---|---|
Height | 147.46mm | 146.7mm | 160.7mm | 160.8mm |
Width | 71.45mm | 71.5mm | 77.58mm | 78.1mm |
Depth | 7.85mm | 7.65mm | 7.85mm | 7.65mm |
The last few design leaks have shown that the initial renders originating from Jon Prosser may not be accurate. He predicted that Apple would bring back iPhone 4-like elements like round volume buttons and make the camera bump flush with the case.
Neither of these rumors have been repeated in recent leaks. Given that Prosser's leaks were provided before the iPhone 13 event in September 2021, a lot could have changed, or Apple never intended to use the leaked design.
Apple is expected to announce the next lineup of iPhones durng a September Apple event. Rumors say that Apple may drop the iPhone mini in favor of a larger "iPhone 14 Max" and provide the A16 processor only to the pro models, keeping the standard models on the A15.

I hope it comes in green!
I know retooling to build and sell a bazillion phones is not an issue for Apple, but I am still surprised that they would do that for such minuscule differences in size. I mean we are talking less than a 10th of a mm in some cases.
I thought we will finally be getting periscope zoom in iPhone in 2022, but it seems I will have to wait longer..
I think the A15 rumour for the non-Pro iPhone is about limited chip supply. They know the A15 is good enough and faster than most of the competition. However, it would be weird to see an old chip in a new model, so I don’t really know what Apple is planning. What is new about the phone? Is it just design, screen, camera megapixels?
