While excitement is building for the iPhone 14, we can say with certainty that Apple hasn't started taking pre-orders yet. But that doesn't mean enthusiastic fans can't put their money where their mouth is...if they've had enough.

They range from the €9,500 Champagne Rose model you can see above, with stingray leather and titanium, to a €22,620 Gold Champagne Crystal model that features lots of gold jewels and nine diamonds.
