A YOUTUBER has leaked a ‘first-look’ of the highly-coveted iPhone 14 just months ahead of its launch.
For nearly a year, leaker sites have speculated about what the upcoming iPhone will look like.

Rumors that the device will come with a notch-less screen and a pill-shaped front camera have been running rampant.
And now a YouTuber named Sam Kohl shared a video last Friday displaying a mock-up of the iPhone 14 models.
The dummy units offer a realistic take on what the new iPhone line may actually look like.
In the video, kohl showed off all four iPhones from the upcoming expected model lineup.
As many rumors have suggested for months now, there is no iPhone ‘mini’ in the lineup.
Instead, Apple is launching two standard iPhones and two Pro models, per the YouTuber.
In terms of features, the standard iPhone 14 looks quite similar to the iPhone 13.
As Kohl illustrates, the diagonal rear camera design, the size of the camera bump, and the slightly smaller notch are essentially the same as the iPhone 13.

The iPhone 14 will also reportedly feature the same A15 processor as last year’s iPhone 13.
However, the iPhone 14 Pro models feature a bigger camera bump as well as better camera quality at 48-megapixels.
Furthermore, the iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max mock-ups also have the pill-hole, notch-less design.
While this will offer the front screen more real estate, it also creates an essentially “invisible” front-camera look that is unlike anything we’ve seen before.
Here’s what else we know.
Rumored prices
The next-gen models may cost even more than the iPhone 13, which is the most expensive Apple smartphone to date, LeaksApplePro said.
The standard iPhone 14 may go for $799, which is the same price as the iPhone 13.
Many experts believe that Apple is abandoning the “Mini” variant for a new “Max” version, which might cost $899.
As with all other iPhone lines, the Pro version is always more expensive. That said, the iPhone 14 Pro may be priced at $1,099.
Last is the iPhone 14 Pro Max, which could cost a whopping $1,199.
Rumored sizes
Apple is thought to be making two 6.1-inch iPhones (iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Pro).
Along with those models, they will likely also offer two 6.7-inch iPhones (iPhone 14 Max and iPhone 14 Pro Max).
Rumored release date
Apple is a creature of habit, sticking to an obvious pattern for iPhone releases each year.
The big launch event always takes place in September, and generally falls early on in the month – on a Tuesday or Wednesday, typically.
For 2022, experts predict the event will take place on Tuesday, September 13, or Wednesday, September 14.
That would be followed by iPhone 14 pre-orders on Friday, September 16, and an actual iPhone 14 release date of Friday, September 23.
iPhone-lovers should find out about the Apple event a week before it’s due to take place.
