Apple iPhone 14 specifications 

In terms of specifications,  the iPhone Pro models will be powered by the A16 Bionic chipset and the non-Pro models will retain the A15 chip. Apple`s upcoming iPhone 14 lineup may come with its long-rumoured satellite communication feature that is likely to be used in emergency situations for texting or voice services. The MacRumors report said: "According to analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, satellite communication is one of iPhone 14`s test items before mass production, and Apple had completed hardware tests for this feature. iPhone 14`s satellite communication mainly provides emergency texting and voice services.  The tech giant had already completed the hardware development of satellite communication in the iPhone 13. However, the report mentioned that the lack of support was because the business model had not been negotiated. He also mentioned that the operator most likely to partner with Apple for satellite communication is Globalstar.
