The iPhone 14 series is still months away from its launch. And just like the previous iPhone series, this one is also out in open with renders and leaks. The recent in this line of leaks is a video that gives us a depiction of the upcoming iPhone 14 Pro Max.

The new render has been leaked by popular YouTuber Lewis Hilsenteger who has a channel named Unbox Therapy. He managed to get his hands on a render of the iPhone 14 Pro Max. This model is expected to be the most expensive in the upcoming line-up with top-notch features.

The render suggests that the iPhone 14 Pro Max’s overall design is similar to that of the iPhone 13 Pro Max. This includes the measurements as well. The new iPhone 14 Pro Max, on the other hand, is slightly thicker than the existing model. While the current model measures roughly 7.7mm thick, the render of the iPhone 14 Pro Max measures 7.9mm thick.

The iPhone 14 Pro Max features somewhat broader buttons, including the power and volume controls. The antenna lines are not visible in the render, although this may change in the final model.

The most striking change, though, is a pill-shaped cutout with a punch hole for the front-facing camera. This confirms most of the earlier leaks concerning the display. The back camera island is also nearly identical to that of the iPhone 13 Pro Max.

iPhone 14 Pro Max Launch Date (Expected)

If Apple follows its usual launch trend, we can expect the launch date of the iPhone 14 Pro Max to be in the second week of September. Most of the launch events of Apple iPhone take place around the same timeline, and if things go as planned the Apple iPhone 14 series launch should not be any different.

iPhone 14 Pro Max Price (Expected)

As per the reports, the iPhone Max is expected to cost around Rs. 140,000. However, due to high import duties and GST, the device may cost more in India.

OPPO could unveil the Reno8 smartphone lineup in the coming months in India. However, the successor to the Reno7 series is expected to break covers sometime later this month in China. Until now, multiple models have been spotted out in the wild including the Reno8 Lite, Reno8 SE, vanilla Reno8, and the Reno8 Pro. But it seems the Reno8 series will have another variant whose existence has been suggested by a noted tipster. The rumored model is the Reno8 Pro+, the top-end variant in the upcoming OPPO Reno8 series.

This indicates the Reno8 Pro+ could be one of the contenders of the OnePlus Ace Racing Edition. The top-end Reno8 phone is also said to be equipped with an X-axis linear motor. Furthermore, the Reno8 Pro+ leak also hints at a 32MP selfie camera. It will be a Sony IMX709 sensor which we have also seen on the Reno7 series.
