The New Apple iPhone 14 – First Full Review
The New Apple iPhone 14 is the upcoming flagship phone series from Apple and it’s incredible! With some huge upgrades to the hardware, and some great software improvements the iPhone 14 is sure to be a success.
I’ve got plenty more to share about the Apple iPhone 14, including another reveal and more spec confirmations. So for the first story of the day, we’ve got more news on the iPhone 14 displays and it seems that BOE may be producing some of them. Despite recent issues where BOE were altering the iPhone 13 displays, the elective reported that Apple are evaluating BOE displays for the new iPhone 14 additional display suppliers put more pressure on both Samsung and LG to be more competitive and cut prices of their panels. While BOE displays are currently being reviewed, they’re only going to be supplying the panels for the standard iPhone 14 if they are approved.
According to Majin bu on Twitter, the standard iPhone 14 displays are going to be supplied by LG, Samsung, and maybe even BoE.
The New iPhone 14 Max and the iPhone 14 Pro are going to be supplied exclusively by Samsung and then the iPhone 14 Pro Max displays are going to be supplied by both Samsung as well as LG.

Majin bu also tweeted to show us some leak cases and display protectors for the iPhone 14 and they give us a good look at what we can expect.
Now to be honest, it’s pretty much the same as last year’s model anyway, and the only real difference here is the thickness and the cameras. But especially on the iPhone 14 Pro Max case, you can see a much larger camera module Protrusion.
Next up, we’ve got confirmation of a new custom lock screen coming to the iPhone 14. This was confirmed at WWDC a couple of weeks ago. Now the lock screen is the first thing people see when picking up their device and Apple are finally adding more customizations and they’re going to allow users to have the lock screen the way they want it.
Now looking at their trailer, it seems that we’re going to have the ability to choose from styles, change fonts, as well as colors, and we can also add information that we want onto the lock screen, including some widgets.

Next up, we’ve got more confirmations that Apple will be switching suppliers of the iPhone selfie camera to finally bring us some big improvements. They’re going to be switching to LG in the tech for the selfie camera and according to the reports that we’re going to be seeing improvements such as autofocus and a larger aperture of F1.9 instead of the previous F2.2. Now the 13 selfie camera does tend to struggle in low light situations, so a larger aperture is a welcomed improvement.
Now you can see from the comparisons that while dimensions are slightly different between the 14 and the 13 models, looking at them side by side, it’s not really noticeable. The differences are only just a few millimeters, so it’s going to feel exactly the same as the previous model in the hand. Now the iPhone 14 Pro models are going to be the first iPhone in a long time to remove the notch and personally I think it looks a lot better than before, but it may take some getting used to.
But the iPhone 14 series is reportedly launching on the 13 September, so it’s not long until we get the official reveal from Apple. But for those excited, We’re now going to run through the full specs design and the expected pricing for each model in the range.
