- Apple's iPhone 14 series provides two features that debuted on Xiaomi mobile phone for the first time.
- These functions are dual ambient light sensor and dual-band GPS navigation.
Apple "Copy" Android manufacturers are no strangers to features such as ultra-wide rear camera, night mode, app drawer and real-time subtitles.
We already know that the company has acquired more features from Android OEM for the iPhone 14 series. Now, it turns out that Apple also adopts two little-known features for the new phone. These two functions were first implemented by Xiaomi .
Two sensors provide better automatic brightness
Apple's iPhone 14 series specification sheet shows that all phones now have dual ambient light sensors, and Mashable reports that one sensor is in the front and one is in the back, which allows Apple phones to adjust brightness more accurately.
However, Xiaomi beat Apple and other companies in the smartphone industry with this feature. China's exporter MyDrivers pointed out that the Xiaomi 10 series launched dual ambient light sensors as early as early as 2020.
was released in the Xiaomi 10 series, which they described as this feature "collect more light source data in complex lighting scenarios to obtain more accurate user ambient light data." Since then, this feature has been used on their own devices by Google and Samsung .
iPhone is equipped with dual-band GPS
Another feature provided for the first time on the iPhone is the dual-band GPS function, logging into the Pro model. As the name suggests, this technology uses two GPS frequencies to improve positioning accuracy on smartphones (rather than just one frequency). This should also provide faster location repairs when using map software and other applications that require location.
This is another feature that has appeared on its own smartphone for the first time through Xiaomi. In fact, the feature debuted on Xiaomi’s Mi 8 flagship back in 2018. Since then, dual-band navigation has been logged into a variety of mobile phones from OnePlus, Samsung and other companies.
is better than being late than
For Apple, these are very small functions, but for users, it may be very critical. It is a good thing for different manufacturers to compete with each other. Android can learn Apple's functions. Apple can also learn a lot from Android phones, such as the 48MP main camera, display cutout and super stable video mode. We are very happy to see Apple catch up with Xiaomi and Android in this regard by adopting these features.
