Rumor has it that the iPhone 14 will come with 2TB of internal storage

The iPhone 13 Pro and Pro Max models may increase their maximum storage capacity from 512 GB to 1 TB this year compared to last year’s models, but apparently that amount of storage is still not enough for Apple. As it turns out, the Cupertino-based company may consider expanding the boundaries of the internal storage space of iPhones. Be with Chicago.

In this regard, it is said that the company intends to equip the iPhone 14 with 2 terabytes of internal storage. This will allow Apple to double the maximum storage space for two consecutive years.

According to My Drivers, a reputable Chinese website, the iPhone 2022 series, which is currently thought to be marketed as the iPhone 14, could have up to 2 terabytes of internal storage. The report follows another DigiTimes report that cites Apple’s collaboration with NAND flash chip makers, and says that the iPhone maker is looking for a solution to build affordable NLC QLC (quad-level cell) flash memory. It is economical for iPhone 14.

The QLC flash has a 33% memory density compared to the potential TLC memory used in the iPhone 13 series. This is because TLC has four bits per cell, which must be converted to more data in the same form factor or design aspect. It also means reducing the cost per unit capacity, in other words, making a single number (for example, for a large-scale iPhone of tens of millions) of this flash memory, which is made for storage on iPhones, at an affordable price. It will be cheaper for Apple.

However, TLC has its own tricks. It can go through more writing and erasing cycles, which means it will have a better lifespan. In addition, data transfer speeds for writing or reading are faster than QLC. As a result, the decision to replace existing TLC solutions with QLC is not without its drawbacks.

Plus, 1TB is enough even for users who need a lot of storage, so it’s unclear if Apple will actually decide to use 2TB for the iPhone 14. Or not. Even if you look at it honestly, you can still see that everything seems a little extra, even by Apple standards.

However, the iPhone 14 series is expected to make a number of design-necessary modifications. For example, the end of a notch or a disgusting cut that has been used frequently for years, is replaced by a small hole punch hole for a selfie camera.

The design of the back panel may also be updated to include a camera module located inside the body. Pro models may use a titanium body, which will likely reduce their weight, and will likely be equipped with a 48-megapixel main camera.

Finally, Apple may stop producing the Mini model in 2022 altogether and introduce another version of the series with a 6.7-inch screen. The entire set of Apple iPhone 14 series smartphones is said to be powered by 4-nanometer processors.
