Gurman seems to be suggesting that both high-end models will get a boost in capacity (as distinct from run time, which could be explained via efficiency improvements) and that this is something unique to the Pro line.<\/p>\n<p>The second point is less specific, but equally interesting and concerns the SIM card slot. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cApple will give eSIM a bigger push this time around, with carriers preparing to steer users toward the digital, embedded SIM cards rather than physical ones,\u201d Gurman writes.  \u201cIn fact, Apple has considered removing the physical SIM card slot altogether beginning either this year or next for some models.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s not the first time we&#8217;ve heard this, and removing the SIM-card slot has reportedly long been an ambition of Apple and its goal to make a completely portless iPhone.  But the fact that Gurman says we&#8217;re still at the &#8216;consideration&#8217; phase makes it seem that this is something for the iPhone 15. Or possibly as a redesigned version of the iPhone 14 for select markets.<\/p>\n<p>Otherwise, Gurman repeats the now well-rehearsed things we can expect from the iPhone 14 Pro: a 48-megapixel sensor upgrade, improved ultra-wide photography, autofocus on the front-facing camera, improved facial recognition and the power of the A16 chip .<\/p>\n<p>The regular iPhone 14 went relatively uncommented with only \u201csome camera hardware changes\u201d mooted, suggesting that this will be a more incremental upgrade for those not going Pro.  If that&#8217;s the case, there&#8217;s a good argument for buying an iPhone 13 Pro instead, but we shall know for sure on Wednesday when Apple finally lifts the head on the phone, as well as the Apple Watch 8 and potentially the AirPods Pro 2. <\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Read next: <\/strong><\/em><em>I just tried Focus Mode on iOS 16 \u2014 and it&#8217;s a game changer<\/em><em>.
