According to the report, the ‌iPhone 14‌ and ‌iPhone 14 Pro‌ will launch with the same number of color options as their predecessors. Compared to the selection of color options available with the ‌iPhone 13‌ mini and ‌iPhone 13‌, the ‌iPhone 14‌ and ‌iPhone 14‌ Max are said to be available in the following colors: iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Max - Black (Midnight), White (Starlight), Blue, Red (PRODUCT RED) and Purple.

"Assuming that the Weibo post's black and white options for the ‌iPhone 14‌ actually refer to Midnight and Starlight, the new color lineup would mean the discontinuation of the ‌iPhone 13‌'s Pink and Green," MacRumors report said. 

For the high-end models, the ‌iPhone 14 Pro‌ and ‌iPhone 14 Pro‌ Max will apparently feature a similar selection of colors to the ‌iPhone 13 Pro‌ and ‌iPhone 13 Pro‌ Max: iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max: Graphite, Silver, Gold and Purple. This would mean that the ‌iPhone 13 Pro‌'s Sierra Blue and Alpine Green would not be carried over this year, the report further added.

Apple is likely launching 4 new iPhones - iPhone 14, iPhone 14 Max, iPhone 14 Pro, and iPhone 14 Pro Max on September 6. According to a new report, The brand will also unveil the Apple Watch Series 8 and the 10th Gen iPad during the Apple event in September.

According to the report, the iPhone 14 Pro will start at $1,099 (up from $999) and the iPhone 14 Pro Max will be priced at $1,199. The rising component costs and Apple’s determination to differentiate Pro and non-Pro iPhones, will see the iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max increase to $1099 and $1199 respectively.  The brand is also expected to replace the iPhone 13 mini with a Max version could lead to a price hike of about $300, the report further added.
