iPhone 14 is likely to be cheaper in 2022 because iPhone 12 mini is going away

Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo claims that the company plans to price the 6.7-inch iPhone under roughly Rs 70,000. The analyst has also claimed that 2022 iPhones could sport under-display Touch ID.

The iPhone 12s or iPhone 13 might still be months away from launch, but we have started getting chatter around next year's iPhones, likely to be the iPhone 14 series. Popular Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo has come up with a new investor note where he claims the company will launch four new iPhone models, but there will be no iPhone 14 mini. The analyst says that Apple may launch two low-end versions of 6.1 and 6.7-inch iPhones, while there will be two other premium models with exact screen sizes. He further adds that the iPhone 14 may come with the lowest price tag for the 6.7-inch iPhone. Those who follow Apple closely may realise that Kuo is referring to a cheaper iPhone 12 Pro Max model next year. For the record, Apple's Pro Max model is one of the most premium models in the entire range, and we have seen that for iPhone 11 Pro Max, iPhone 12 Pro Max, and most likely will see that for iPhone 13 Pro Max (or iPhone 12s Pro Max).
