The online Apple store began taking preorders on Friday for the recently announced iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus in yellow casings.
The canary-colored handsets won’t be in stores until March 14,though.
The iPhone 14 Plus isn’t selling well, and the same was true for the model it replaced, the iPhone 13 mini. With that in mind, it seems reasonable for Apple reduce the number of product lines it offers.
There are currently five iPhone models in production. Dropping to four would benefit the company and its customers.

I put the Forté to use in my home office. Here’s what it’s like to use in real life.
The iPhone screen cutout allegedly won’t shrink next year, despite a previous report that under-display Face ID would be implemented in 2024.
Looks like the Dynamic Island will be around for years to come.

iPhone captured eight spots in the list of top 10 bestselling smartphones for 2022, according to a market-research firm. In fact, Apple makes the three most popular models.

After the lighthearted musicals of the first season of Schmigadoon!, fans of the Apple TV+ series will need to adjust for darker and sexier fare in season two. The first trailer shows the upcoming episodes will be set in a new town, where everyone lives in a musical from the 1960s or 1970s.
Watch the just-released Schmigadoon! season two trailer to see what’s coming to Apple TV+ in April.
Anyone who just can’t wait for the newly announced yellow iPhone 14 can at least put Apple’s wallpaper for the upcoming handset on their current device.
The same is also true for those who simply like yellow and green.

The new plan: Dynamic Island for everyone.
The comedy series Shrinking continues its streak of being among the most popular shows on any streaming service. It made the top list for all of February, and continues to hold on to its audience.
