In an investor note today obtained by MacRumors, Kuo says that Apple plans to have four models in the 2022 iPhone lineup. Kuo had previously (https://www.macrumors.com/2021/04/14/kuo-no-new-iphone-mini-in-2022/) stated that the iPhone 13, destined for this year, will be the last iPhone lineup to feature a 5.4-inch “mini” size. Kuo reaffirmed his belief today, stating that the 2022 iPhones will only feature a 6.1-inch and 6.7-inch size, with two models of each size.





The low-end 6.7-inch iPhone may cost less than $900 but could lack certain features such as an under the screen Touch ID sensor to compensate for costs. The current largest 6.7-inch iPhone, the iPhone 12 Pro Max, begins at $1,099.





Providing some details about the camera improvements coming to the 2022 iPhones, Kuo says the high-end 6.1-inch and 6.7-inch iPhones will feature an improved wide-angle camera with 48 megapixels.





In the same note, Kuo reiterated that in the first half of next year, Apple is still planning to launch an updated iPhone SE (https://www.macrumors.com/2021/06/23/2022-iphone-se-details/) that will be the “cheapest 5G iPhone ever.” The update to the iPhone SE will feature a similar design as the current model, with improved performance.<div class="linkback">Tag: Ming-Chi Kuo (https://www.macrumors.com/guide/ming-chi-kuo/)</div>
