With the release of the iPhone 15 in 2023, its predecessor, the iPhone 14, is no longer Apple’s prime flagship smartphone. Consequently, there have been significant price drops of nearly $100 on iPhone 14. Apple has also stopped selling the 6.1-inch iPhone 14 Pro and 6.7-inch iPhone 14 Pro Max on its official website. Here are some crucial things about the iPhone 14 series, from specifications to prices and deals.

1. Models in the series
The iPhone 14 series comprises four models: iPhone 14, iPhone 14 Plus, iPhone 14 Pro, and iPhone Pro Max. The iPhone 14 and the iPhone 14 Plus have similar features, but the latter has a bigger display. As a result, the iPhone 14 can be considered a mini version of the iPhone 14 Plus. Similarly, the iPhone 14 Pro and the iPhone 14 Pro Max share features, but the Pro Max is larger. In terms of features and overall experience, the iPhone 14 Pro phones pack in more punch than the iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus.

2. Specifications
The iPhone 14 series brought along many new features compared to its predecessors, such as:

• A new chip on the Pro models
• Different build materials for the chassis: aluminum for the regular iPhone 14 and stainless steel for the Pro models
• A higher refresh rate of 120 Hz on the Pro models
• A higher outdoor peak brightness on the Pro and Pro Max compared to the previous generation models
• Always On Display for the Pro variants
• A new notch design.
• More powerful primary cameras on the iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone Pro Max
• An extra telephoto lens on the Pro models with additional camera features like Night Portraits, ProRaw, and Macro

3. Pricing
When it launched in 2022, the price of the standard iPhone 14 started at $799. The iPhone 14 Plus had prices starting from $899. The Pro models’ price points began from around $999 for the smaller variant and $1,099 for the bigger Max.

With the release of the iPhone 15 in 2023, the prices of the iPhone 14 series have come down significantly. The cost of the standard iPhone 14 with 128 GB of storage is now about $699. One can get the 256GB and 512GB variants for around $799 and $999, respectively. Similarly, the bigger iPhone 14 Plus 128GB model costs approximately $799. The 256GB and 512GB variants are priced at around $899 and $1,099, respectively.

While Apple has discontinued the Pro models, they can be purchased through third-party retailers and carriers. The price tag of the smaller iPhone Pro ranges between $899 and $1,399. The exact rate depends on the storage capacity, which can range from 256 GB to 1 TB. The Pro Max can cost anywhere from $999 to $1,499 based on the storage capacity. However, the refurbished models of the Pro and Po Max may be cheaper. Consumers looking for even lower prices can avail of iPhone 14 series offers.

4. iPhone 14 deals and offers
Shoppers can save big on the iPhone 14 models by availing of trade-ins, discounts on new connections at carriers, and other offers. Here are a few places where one can find iPhone series offers:

Apple online store
At Apple’s e-store, consumers are known to enjoy a lower price if they trade in an older phone for an iPhone 14. One can choose between different storage and finish options. If someone wants to upgrade from a phone of another brand to an iPhone, Apple sometimes pays the price difference depending on the condition and model of the older phone. In addition, consumers eligible for Apple Card support may enjoy installment payment offers.

Besides the above, shoppers may be able to buy locked versions of iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus. These phones have carrier restrictions, meaning consumers can use them only with select carriers. The offers for locked and unlocked iPhones are unavailable for the iPhone Pro and iPhone Pro Max on Apple’s online store.

Carriers
Several major carriers, including AT&T, Verizon, Mint Mobile, and T-Mobile, have a wide range of deals on the iPhone 14. These include trade-in offers, carrier credits, and installment payment plans. Also, unlike Apple’s online store, the deals apply to all four iPhones, including the Pro and Pro Max.

Retailers
Shoppers can access excellent money-saving deals through big retailers like Amazon, Best Buy, eBay, and Walmart. For instance, Best Buy is known to slash the prices of the iPhone 14 series by $800 to $1000. This is in addition to trade-in offers and preferred carrier activation deals.
