News & Reviews:   Apple iPhone 14 series

Besides the news on Apple Intelligence and Siri AI at WWDC26,  iOS 27 was also officially announced this morning at WWDC. There are bound to be iPhone owners who want to know if their phones will receive it or if they will have to buy a new iPhone. Uniquely, this year Apple has confirmed that all devices that received iOS 26 last year can be updated to iOS 27. So, what should you know about it?

Apple added a new crash detection feature to the iPhone 14 series which will automatically call emergency services if the owner doesn’t respond after it detects a car crash had happened. A real-life example of the feature in action happened yesterday in Nebraska, United States after a passenger’s iPhone 14 series smartphone automatically alerted responders of a car crash that its owner was in. Tragically, all 6 involved in the accident were killed after the car they were in hit a tree.

Apple today officially released iOS 16 for all supported iPhones and it seems that early adopters are already finding a bug with the new OS. Taking to social media, many iPhone users are claiming that they are experiencing App Store errors after installing iOS 16.

Samsung has a history of targeting Apple products in its ads, especially in the United States and ahead of the launch of the iPhone 14 Series, the South Korean tech giant is back at it again. This time around, Samsung posted an ad called ‘Buckle up’ which mocks the upcoming iPhones for not having the top-of-the-line specs that the latest galaxy smartphones possess.

Apple is reportedly planning to ditch the SIM card slot on its iPhones and instead only provide support for eSIM. In fact, the company may even release an eSIM-only iPhone 14 series model for certain regions this September.

Reliable tipster and reputable Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo is at it again by spilling the beans on the tech giant’s upcoming devices. This time around, Kuo’s aim is directed towards the upcoming iPhone 14 Pro, whereby the leaker gave an explanation as to why the upcoming device would have a larger camera bump.

According to Kuo, the iPhone 14 Pro would have a more prominent rear-camera bump because Apple is upgrading the camera to 48MP. In case you didn’t know, Apple has been featuring only a 12MP sensor on its iPhone cameras throughout the last 7 years, since the iPhone 6s way back in 2015.
