iPhone 14 Pro Models Thicker Than iPhone 13 Pro Series Due to More Advanced Cameras

Apple's new iPhone 14 Pro models are marginally thicker than the previous-generation iPhone 13 Pro models due to camera advancements.

The iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max have a thickness of 7.85mm, whereas the iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max measure in at 7.65mm. The increased thickness is largely the result of rear camera improvements on the iPhone 14 Pro models, which feature an upgraded 48-megapixel Wide lens and enhancements to the Ultra Wide and Telephoto lenses.

Apple says the iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max weigh 7.27 ounces and 8.47 ounces, respectively, which is only slightly heavier than iPhone 13 Pro models. The complete dimensions and measurements for iPhone 14 Pro models are listed on Apple's website.

iPhone 14 Pro models feature a new always-on display with a pill-shaped notch replacement called the Dynamic Island. The devices will be available to order starting this Friday, September 9 and launch in stores on September 16 across over 40 countries. Pricing for the iPhone 14 Pro models continues to start at $999 in the United States.

Solid camera update, but I'm mostly impressed how the Dynamic Island works, and didn't leak! Incredible job by Apple's team on that one.

That does not bother me at all. We got major improvements with the camera set up. This is the best iPhone ever!

this is embarrassing that the iPhone 14 has A15 chip and cameras from the iPhone 13 Pro and they limited that software feature "photonic engine" to iPhone 14 only

Literally have no clue which one to go for this year, especially given the EU price increase. Was thinking the 14pro.

Seems like all you get this year is a camera bump that sounds impressive, but in reality who really takes pics like they demo in the marketing.

Almost feel like waiting another year and keeping my iPhone 11, which is still just fine.
