See the new smartphones by Apple

By | September 13, 2022

On September 7 the long-awaited presentation of the company’s new devices (θήκες κινητών), including the new iPhone, new Apple Watch models and new AirPods Pro, took place – by Apple fans and non-Apple fans alike.

The new iPhone 14 Pro and Pro Max

One of the central points of the presentation will of course be the announcement of the new iPhone.

However, the “protagonist” will not be the regular model, but the iPhone 14 Pro and Pro Max – or Plus as it will probably be called based on the information leaked in the previous days.

The new Pro phones will have always on display, a function that androids have offered for a long time, a 48 megapixel rear camera with a larger sensor, while the front camera will be even more discreet, so as to enlarge the screen even more.

Also, the new smartphone is expected to have an upgraded A16 processor and come in two new colors, blue and deep purple. At the same time, there are rumors that it will support faster charging, but the packaging does not yet include a USB-C type cable.

The models will start with 256 GB of storage space, while it is expected that the batteries will be larger.

In general, it is predicted that there will be a large series of changes, which will justify the rumored price increase for the enhanced models.

However, the base model of the iPhone 14 will not have many changes. Perhaps the most important thing is that this particular model, like the other two, will have a better front camera (selfie), which will use autofocus. However, it will have the same A15 processor, which was used in the iPhone 13 series.

Also, it looks like the Mini won’t be making a comeback this year, much to the dismay of small mobile fans.

Finally, there are several rumors that the iPhone 14 will have satellite connectivity, a feature that can be used in emergencies without having to pick up a signal from cellular service.

It is noted that the same rumors existed around this time last year before the presentation of the iPhone 13, while this February the satellite company Globalstar acquired 17 new satellites, “in order to provide continuous satellite services to a potential customer”.

New Apple Watch models

Apple is expected to launch three new models today, the Watch Series 8, an upgraded SE and a new Pro model, which is designed for extreme sports. The former is expected to have an S8 processor, but without offering major upgrades to the S7 and S6. There may also be a fever sensor, but also a fertility tracking app.

The new Apple Watch SE is expected to replace the cheaper Watch Series 3 of the previous series, possibly carrying the same S8 processor and being the same size.

As for the Apple Watch Pro, it may have a significantly larger screen, which will be more resistant to shocks. It is also rumored to have a hard metal casing, as well as a button on its left side. It may also be so large that it won’t fit in the older plastic cases. Early estimates place it between 900 and 999.

The new headphones

This is a long-awaited upgrade, since the AirPods Pro have not changed since their first appearance in 2019. In fact, it is expected that they will even have a different appearance, with a larger head that will go inside the ear. They may also have upgraded motion sensors, enhancing the functions for physical exercise.

Upgrades are also expected in terms of connectivity and sound quality, although the rumors have not been confirmed. There will also be an upgrade to their case, which may include a small speaker that will make a sound when you try to search for it through the Find My app. It is noted that now only the headphones themselves emit a tracking sound.

The new iPhone 14 will be released on September 9, while the iPhone 14 Plus will be released on October 7.

The iPhone 14 will cost 799 and the more beefed-up Plus version is priced at 899.

In fact, the security service called Emergency SOS via satellite will be able to connect to emergency services even if the user is out of mobile or Wi-Fi range. Note that it is free for iPhone 14 users in the US and Canada.

The two larger and more expensive iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Max models will be released next week, and pre-orders can be made from Friday 9 September.The first model will cost 999 and the second will be 1,099.

Characteristics:

  • Display that never turns off, even when not in use
  • Battery with lower consumption and longer life
  • 48 megapixel camera with a larger sensor
  • Better low-light shots

AirPods Pro

AirPods Pro will be released on September 23rd and will cost 249, and will feature better sound quality and clarity, thanks to the Apple H2 chip that is an upgrade from the previous model.
