A year from now, no one will remember what Proser said. He knows that. He reaps the rewards of his clickbait now and won’t be held responsible if he’s wrong. And if he happens to be proven right, everyone will think he’s a genius. It’s a no-lose scenario.

Jon Prosser on iPhone 14: No Notch, No Camera Bump, Titanium Design, and More

I’ll leave it with NOBODY even came as close as Prosser did with his leak.
Super Flat Design,
Sharp right-angle edges,
Ports on the back.
Stand is small with tiny hinge no VESA mount (natively - adapter came after and only at time of ordering).
Colours: No Black (previously only on iMac Pro), no Pink (but Orange, Red, and something in-between - forgiven), Blue and Green made it plus others so a win.
you’re problem is looking for 100% exactness … and not even Apple kiss-but Gurber/Gruber at Bloomberg has gotten that. So you point is mute.
Nuff said.
Technically by listing on https://appletrack.com/leaderboard/ you’d be right … BUT:
Macrumors is getting their information form multiple sources as well as WallStreet Journal so neither should be ranked at all as ‘sources of leaks’ they’re aggregating from multiple sources which includes: Prosser, Ming-Chu Kuo, and others.
Take both WallStreet and Macrumors out and Prosser makes the top 10 list.
Most accurate list is here: https://appletrack.com/leaderboard/#accurate
Compare the amount of leaks from Prosser vs WallStreet, Macrumors and others and his rumors are over 300% higher than those to … so accuracy will drop as he’s re-iterating from sources he has not aggregating like those I’ve mentioned.
Never bothered me, to be honest, since my case made the back of the phone level anyway. I think most people use a case.
Really when you think about it when was the last time Apple innovated with a phones design?
iphone 4 with premium materials and iPhone X with edge to edge folded OLED display were probably it, maybe iPhone 5S with Touch ID but the rest have been chasing android ideas like bigger displays, dual cameras, OLED, wireless charging and fat camera bumps.
The camera bump was copied from a million android devices while the Face ID notch is hilariously dated and getting rid of both would actually be a massive achievement in design.

Looks like the iPhone 14 and Apple Watch 8 are the ones to get. 13 & 7, not so much.
All these responses saying “I’ve changed my mind about the iPhone 13 because of this” are really funny. Did people *not* think the iPhone 14 would be better than the 13, before Proser said so? Is that really a surprise?
I’d have to see it, I know in the wealthy areas around here there’s some houses that are amazing, and some that are over the top ridiculous. The size of many of them are insane, big enough to be a hotel, Michael Jackson’s house he died in looks like a fortress and takes up an entire block.
Not surprising, I feel the same way about gold phones, I saw Versailles once, that’s enough gold for a lifetime even if it wasn’t all real.

I actually prefer the notch to the punch hole , so it’s a new iPhone for me tomorrow , thx for the heads up ! 😂
I caved and ordered a flip 3. I just have to try it. I’m on Verizon so I have 30 days to return it after it arrives Wednesday. I’m sure I’ll change my mind 12x between now and then considering the Apple event Tuesday and I’ll preorder an iPhone 13PM for consideration as well. I’ve never owned a non-iPhone smartphone so the big hurdle will be dealing with a new OS without integration with all my other Apple devices/services.
I think you'll like it and it really doesn't work all that differently. I'm loving mine, though I did run it out of juice yesterday by too much gaming. (It actually puts it in low power mode at ~5%, so the screen gets pretty dim, which is a good sign to put it on the charger. It has fast charging via USBC, and wireless charging.
That’s for reminding everyone Prosser is a grifter 😂
