On August 24, local time, Apple issued an autumn invitation to the media, announcing that a special event would be held at the Jobs Theater at 10 a.m. on September 7 (1 a.m. on September 8, Beijing time) with the theme of "FarOut" ( super forward-looking).
So, what information might be hidden in this invitation letter?
Given Apple’s space-themed invitation design, one of the most obvious possibilities is that it’s hinting at new satellite connectivity capabilities. The iPhone's satellite connectivity feature was first reported last year, when rumors suggested it would come to iPhone 13, but it ultimately never materialized.
In March of this year, technology blog 9to5Mac exclusively reported that Apple was still developing these satellite features and may implement them this year. iOS 16 also adds a new "SOS" (emergency distress signal) icon to the iPhone status bar, which will appear when the user's iPhone loses cellular network connection. The satellite functionality is expected to allow users in emergency situations to connect to satellites in order to contact first responders when cellular phone service is lost.
In addition, the space theme of the invitation may also hint at a long-rumored feature, that is, the iPhone's astrophotography function. This will improve the iPhone's camera performance in low-light environments, especially outdoors. If this feature were implemented, the iPhone would be able to detect the moon or stars and then use longer exposure times and more internal processing to refine the image.
According to IT House, Apple’s launch event in September will focus on the iPhone 14 series of mobile phones. is expected to include a 6.1-inch iPhone 14, a 6.7-inch iPhone 14 Max, a 6.1-inch iPhone 14 Pro and a 6.7-inch iPhone 14 Pro. Max. There will be no 5.4-inch mini model this year.
Compared with last year’s product line, Apple has canceled the Mini series and added a large-screen Max version. The appearance of the new generation iPhone14 series has basically been "spoiled", and the standard version has not changed much.
The Pro model of iPhone 14 will adopt a new "exclamation point" screen opening design, be equipped with an A16 chip, and be equipped with a new 48-megapixel camera. iPhone 14 non-Pro models will still use the A15 chip and may have new colors, updated ultra-wide-angle lenses, faster 5G and WiFi 6E connections.
