The Grain of Salt: iPhone 14 in purple, new HomePod and more!

If there’s one place to find a lot of rumors on a weekly basis, it’s Apple. From leaked images to new information about the iPhone 14, they’re plentiful.

We regularly pick up the rumors at One More Thing to give you an idea about what goes on behind the scenes. In The Grain of Salt we list those rumors for you every week. A day later than usual, but these are all the rumors from the past week.

Striking color option iPhone 14 Pro

The iPhone 14 Pro and Pro Max, which see the light of day next Wednesday, will get a striking color option. That rumor has been around for some time, but now an obscure video is surfacing online. This shows that we are not dealing with a regular color option, but one that can change.

Curious what this looks like exactly and what to believe about the video? You can read it in the article below!

MacBook Pro without M2 Pro or Max

The MacBook Pro is getting an update, but apparently not as some of us hoped. Where the M2 chip made its appearance in June this year, the development seems to be going less fast than hoped. The new MacBook Pro has to do without an M2 Pro or M2 Max chip.

Is that a problem or is the alternative sufficient? OMT editor Jeroen gives the answer in the article below!

Still an iPhone 14 mini?

It was a bit of a standout week last week. After the obscure video of the color option, information about an iPhone 14 mini also suddenly appeared. So far, it seemed clear that Apple is moving away from the small model and launching an alternative with the Max. A new report suddenly seems to question that theory.

Are you curious from whom the information comes and to what extent you should believe the news? You can read that in the article below!

All about the new HomePod?

No new rumor last week, but a clear overview. If we are to believe recent information, consumers can prepare for the comeback of the HomePod and the arrival of a mini model.

To put things in order, Jeroen lists everything we know about it so far.

iPhone 14 with the new notch

The iPhone 14 Pro and Pro Max will most likely get a new notch. How it will look exactly seems to be equally clear, but how it works has been a surprise until now. A new patent seems to provide more clarity.
