Apple announced its new line of iPhone models and other updated products at a launch event on Wednesday.

Apple releases new iPhone 14 Pro

Apple released on Wednesday a new iPhone 14 Pro with advanced camera and video settings, the company said at a launch event. The model will also be available in the larger 6.7-inch iPhone 14 Pro Max model.

The iPhone 14 Pro draws on the new A16 bionic chip, which enables an always-on display, high-resolution photo and video, and greater memory bandwidth, the company said.

The advanced photo and video capabilities owe to a new 48 megapixel camera with a quad pixel sensor.

The new model of the iPhone 14 includes a “dynamic island,” a set-aside section of the screen that offers alerts that can expand and change size without distracting from an app in use.

A new low-power mode will extend the duration that the phone can last on a single charge, the company said.


New iPhone 14 will cost either $799 or $899

The new iPhone model will cost either $799 for a standard 6.1-inch size, or $899 for a larger 6.7-inch iPhone 14 Plus, the company said at a launch event on Wednesday.

The standard iPhone 14 will be available for preorder on Sept. 9 and purchase on Sept. 16, while the iPhone 14 Plus will be available for purchase on Oct. 7.

The iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus will include a slew of new features, such as enhanced Emergency SOS via satellite, which will be available free for two years for iPhone 14 owners.

The new iPhone model is compatible with 5G cellular networks, which will allow for faster download times and better streaming, the company said.
