Less expensive iPhone 14 Max might have one key advantage over the Pro model

See, all of this is based on very early rumors: heck, we don't even know everything about the iPhone 13 generation that should be released in about three months time, but we do know a little important bit.

We know that this far in the future iPhone 14 Max will skip on some of the premium features. For example, Apple is expected to bring an under-display fingerprint scanner to the iPhone 14 Pro models, a feature that won't be available on this less expensive non-Pro 14 Max.

However, and that is just a speculation, but could this also mean that while skipping on this and that feature, Apple will create a phone that is actually much lighter than the current Pro Max model? To remind you, the iPhone 12 Pro Max that is currently sold weighs in at nearly half a pound, or to be perfectly exact it's 8.03 ounces (228 grams). That is a lot of weight! And that's only the present: in the future, we have heard rumors about Apple adding a periscope, long-range zoom camera and a larger battery, which will make that phone even heavier.

And while that might not be an issue for some, we know quite a few people that would like a large-screen phone that does not weigh as much as a brick.

Also, this is not unprecedented: Apple's iPhone 12 has absolutely identical size and dimensions as the 12 Pro model, even the same battery size, it only lacks the zoom camera. Still, the difference in weight is huge: the iPhone 12 weighs in at merely 5.78 oz (164.0 g) compared to a considerably heavier 6.66 oz (189.0 g) on the Pro version.
