The US-based tech giant Apple is preparing to bring its upcoming iPhone 14 series this September. After launching iPhone 12 Mini and 13 Mini, it seems like Apple may not bring iPhone 14 Mini this time. According to a report from IANS,  aluminum models of the iPhone 14 series have appeared on social media, without an iPhone 14 mini.

"According to AppleInsider, physical models for the Apple smartphones begin to appear and "models for the iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Max show that there's little more to learn beyond existing renders," the report further added.

As per the report, posted on Chinese social media platform Weibo, the four models show the burr marks left from machining, with each also labeled to show their model and screen size.

"The normal and Pro versions each consist of versions with a 6.7-inch screen and a 6.1-inch screen, indicating the loss of the Mini model," the report noted. IANS says that the iPhone 14 Pro models will house an updated pill and hole-punch design on the display. It will create small holes for the camera system.

The Pro models, fitting in three camera lenses, have a much more pronounced bump than the two-camera versions. The Mini model is also likely to be replaced by the larger version.

Tech giant Apple is planning to launch iPhone 14 with satellite connectivity options for emergency scenarios. According to an earlier GizmoChina report, through satellite connectivity, users would be able to send text messages or SOS responses via a satellite network to report on accidents, similar to the one on the brand's smartwatch.

Interestingly, the iPhone 13 series was also expected to come with such technology as well, although, this was skipped on the 2021 iPhone.
