iPhone 14 Pro – TOP 5 NEW FEATURES

So Apple will officially launch the iPhone 14 lineup on the 7 September and will sell it on the 16 September. We know everything there is to know about the handset, so let’s take a look at the top five new features the iPhone 14 Pro and Max will get this year.

1. Two Cut Outs On The Display.

Apple is doing away with the notch for the iPhone 14 Pro lineup and will include not just one, but two cut outs on the display. The circular cutout will have the front facing camera and the pill shaped cut out will include the Face ID hardware.

Honestly, in a world of small punch hole displays and Android, these cutouts on the 14 Pro are laughable. But it helps Apple to set the phone apart from last year’s Pro models and this is business.

2. Always on Display Screen

The iPhone 14 Pro and Max will finally get Always on Display six years later than their arch rival Samsung. However, Apple’s implementation will be totally different from Samsung. Instead of giving you a black screen with clock in Widgets, Apple has decided to just dim the screen. 

Yes, once the user turns off the screen of the iPhone 14 Pro, the wallpaper will switch to the Sleep version, where users will see reminiscence of their wallpaper and information, such as the time and their lock screen widgets, even when their display is not an active use and will return to full brightness when the phone is unlocked. And how this affects the battery life and the screen burning remains to be seen.

3. LTPO panel With 120 HZ Display

Though speaking of Always on display, the iPhone 14 Pro will have 120 Hz displays, which is nothing new, but what’s new is the LTPO panel. Unlike the iPhone 13 Pro, which has a variable refresh rate that varies between 10 Hz depending on what you’re doing on the phone, the iPhone 14 Pro will go all the way down to just 1 Hz, thereby saving crucial battery life when the phone doesn’t need to display more than 1 Hz, such as when viewing still images and while on Always On Display.

4. Bigger Camera Aperture And Megapixels

The front camera of the iPhone 14Pro will get two big upgrades.The first one is a bigger aperture bumping from f/2.2 to f/1.9. This has two benefits a shallower depth of field, which would make the photos as well as the video much more pleasing to the eyes, and bit results in sensor capturing more light, which would result in better low light photos.

The second big upgrade is the Autofocus, which means sharper images across a range of distances but this isn’t something new in smartphones. Samsung introduced Autofocus on selfie cameras with the GalaxyS Eight five years ago, back in 2017. Even though the number of rear cameras will remain the same, there will be some significant under the hood improvements.

The iPhone 14 Pro will get a 48 megapixel main camera, which finally makes a change from the twelve megapixel cameras Apple has used for years. Apple is using a larger 1/1.3 inch sensor, up from a 1/1.65 inch sensor on the iPhone 13 Pro. Overall, the sensor area will increase by 57%, which is why the rear camera module will also get bigger.

Apple will likely use four in one pixel bidding technology to output twelve megapixel images for better low light sensitivity and performance. Not only that, the phone can also record eight K videos for the very first time. 

5. Telephoto Lenses Upgrade

And finally, Apple will also upgrade the telephoto camera from a six element lens to a seven element lens.Improve telephoto images, of course.

With that said, let me know your thoughts down in the comments. As always, I’ll see you in next update.
