Back in March earlier this year, renowned Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo hinted that Apple’s upcoming A16 Bionic chip will remain exclusive to iPhone 14 Pro models. Kuo now says that all non-Pro iPhones will no longer come with the latest Apple A-series chipsets and will rely on previous-gen chips going forward.
Apple is likely to launch four models in the iPhone 14 series — iPhone 14, 14 Max, 14 Pro, and 14 Pro Max. Going by previous reports, we got to know that iPhone 14 Pro and Pro Max may be powered by the upcoming A16 chipset, while the iPhone 14 and 14 Max could feature the current-gen A15 chipset. While most of us thought Apple may have made this decision due to the ongoing chip shortage, it looks like this is part of the company’s new business strategy.
