Big smartphone launches in 2022 are yet to happen! In the past few weeks, we have seen a couple of high-profile phones as well as a multitude of midrange phones grace our market. The Samsung Galaxy S22 series has been the biggest launch so far, with a couple of announcements from Oppo, iQOO, and Realme. However, 2022 has just begun and there is still a lot of it left to explore. And in that time, we are expecting a couple of big launches that will make it to India eventually.

Note that we are considering only some of the high-end phones coming from the biggest names of the industry. The iPhone 14 is one of the biggest ones we are anticipating this year, with the Galaxy Z Fold 4 also expected to make some noise in the world of foldable smartphones. Hence, let’s have a look at some of the top options in the market.

The iPhone 14 will be the next big upgrade to the vastly popular iPhone 13. While the launch is still six months away, rumours and leaks have suggested that the iPhone 14 could finally get a 120Hz refresh rate display from the iPhone 13 Pro series. You can also expect an improvement in the cameras, battery life, and the next generation Apple A16 chipset.

Same as iPhone 14 but only bigger! The iPhone 14 Max will replace the iPhone 13 Mini but with a larger display. Rumours suggest the same 6.7-inch 120Hz OLED display from the iPhone 13 Pro Max, a bigger battery, and possibly a few other differences will grace the iPhone 14 Max. This phone could also be getting a higher price tag.

The iPhone 14 Pro is said to mark the next major evolution in the world of iPhones. The display notch could go away for a pill-shaped hole cut-out for the TruDepth camera system. The main rear camera is expected to use a custom 48MP sensor
