In 2022, we may get an iPhone 14, an iPhone 14 Max, an iPhone 14 Pro, and an iPhone 14 Pro Max.
Only the iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max is expected to ship with the new Apple A16 Bionic chipset.
All of them will have a max 6GB RAM option only.
Apple is likely to bring four new iPhone models in 2022. Instead of iPhone 14 mini, this time around, we may get to see an iPhone 14 Max, next in line to the standard iPhone 14. According to analyst Ming-Chi Kuo (Via Macrumors), we could have a 6.1-inch iPhone 14, a 6.7-inch iPhone 14 Max, a 6.1-inch iPhone 14 Pro, and a 6.7-inch iPhone 14 Pro Max. Not only that, he predicts that only the iPhone 14 Pro variants will sport the new Apple A16 Bionic processor.
That would leave the iPhone 14 and the iPhone 14 Max with a year-old Apple A15 Bionic chipset.
Here’s everything else he claims about the forthcoming iPhone 14 lineup:

Apple A15 Bionic SoC
Mr. Kuo says the iPhone 14 series will include a 6.1-inch iPhone 14, a 6.7-inch iPhone 14 Max, a 6.1-inch iPhone 14 Pro, and a 6.7-inch iPhone 14 Pro Max.
Out of these four new iPhones, only the iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max will be equipped with an Apple A16 Bionic chipset. That would be a crucial matter of differentiation between the Pros and regular iPhones.
Besides that, the Pro models may also get LPDDR5 RAM while the iPhone 14 and the iPhone 14 Max would have only LPDDR4x memory. The LPDDR5 is theoretically 1.5x times the speed and 30-percent more efficient than LPDDR4x. Meanwhile, the maximum RAM size would be 6GB only, contrary to earlier rumors that suggested an 8GB option.
Now, we are still way ahead of the expected September launch event of these iPhones and things may still change.
