One big change is that Apple will be ditching iPhone mini variant for new iPhone 14 Max with 6.7-inch screen. Other three will be— iPhone 14(6.1–inch), 14 Pro (6.1-inch) and iPhone 14 Pro Max (6.7-inch).

The Pro models are expected to come with big camera upgrades along with new pill display panel with reduced notch design.

On the other hand, iPhone 14 and 14 Max will have dual cameras and normal notch design as seen in the previous generation.

Apple is also expected to announce not one but two Watch series 8 series — one standard Watch series 8 and top-end Watch Series 8 Pro. The latter will have titanium case and former will have aluminium case. The Pro model will have longer battery life.
