Photography is handled by a new 12MP (ƒ/1.5, 1.9 µm) main camera with sensor-shift OIS paired with 12MP (f/2.4, 120° FOV, 2x Optical zoom, 5x digital zoom) Ultra Wide-angle camera and True Tone flash. There is also a new front TrueDepth camera, and all the cameras are supported by the new Photonic Engine, which improves mid- to low-light photos performance.
Apple has added Crash Detection to the entire iPhone 14 roster. The feature, which is also available in the Apple Watch Series 8 and Apple Watch Ultra, detects severe car crash using a new high dynamic range gyroscope and new dual-core accelerometer capable of detecting G-force measurements of up to 256Gs. It automatically alerts emergency services once the user doesn’t respond in 10 seconds.
Users can now access emergency services and share their location with Find My via satellite straight from the iPhone (Emergency SOS via satellite). This service is important where there is no cellular or Wi-Fi connection, will be available initially for free to users in Canada and the US. Both the iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus support 5G connectivity and come pre-loaded with iOS 16.
To further encourage the growing eSIM adoption, US models are SIM tray free on both models. Apple also mentioned that Fitness+ ill be available directly from the iPhone later this fall. The service can be accessed via the new Fitness app (iOS 16) in Australia and 20 other countries. The iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus will be available in five colours – Blue, Purple, Midnight blue, (PRODUCT)RED and Starlight colours. Pre-orders begin this Friday and availability from September 16 (iPhone 14)/October 9 (iPhone 14 Plus).
