Apple has announced the next wave of its smartphone by unveiling the iPhone 14 range at today's (7 September) Apple Event.
Yes, it's here and it's slightly better than last year's model.
The iPhone 14 will cost you $799, while the Plus model will be priced at $899, though some customers will be able to get discounts if they trade in old models.

The regular iPhone 14 models come with a 6.1 inch screen and there's a 6.7 inch size for the Plus, making it as large as Apple's largest phone - the iPhone 13 Pro Max.
With each model being an iterative improvement on the ones that came before it, new features include an 'always on' display which shows off the time and notifications while dormant.
Other features for the iPhone 14 includes a longer battery life.
With a five core GPU and a six core CPU, Apple claims its new phone is more powerful than anything its competitors can match.

The iPhone 14 comes with a new 12 megapixel main camera, while the front facing camera boasts the same levels of definition. The tech giant has also boosted performance for low-light photos compared to the iPhone 13 range.
As well as this, Apple has introduced a slew of new features to protect the phone from being broken or stolen.
Coming with a ceramic shield to protect the screen from being smashed, the new phones also include an eSIM which can't be removed if someone steals it from you, protecting your data.

US models of the iPhone 14 won't even come with the SIM tray anymore.
The device also comes with an Emergency SOS feature which can use satellites if you ever find yourself in a really dangerous spot, as well as allowing you to use the FindMy app to share your location so people can find you if you get lost.
The iPhone 14 is set to hit shelves on 16 September, while the 14 Plus is due to be launched on 7 October.
Also part of the launch were the Apple Watch 8 and a new generation of AirPods Pro.
