iPhone 14 launch: What are the new features?
Apple has never stopped surprising the world with extraordinary features. On September 7, 2022, Apple launched their latest iPhone 14 series. The iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max variants differ significantly from the standard iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus models.
What’s new on Apple’s iPhone series
— Brighter display featuring Dynamic Island:
Apple claims that the bezels have been considerably decreased in the latest iPhone 14 models, but the sizes are once again 6.1 and 6.7 inches. The display is brighter than previous models’, with a peak brightness of 2,000 nits.
In the latest iPhone 14 Pro and Pro Max model, you get a pill-shaped "Dynamic Island" which has replaced the previous upper-display notch. This ‘Always-On’ display feature will not only allow the users to access controls with just a tap-and-hold; but also give quick access to crucial information.

Running on iOS 16, the Dynamic Island can show information like sports scores while running background activities like Maps, Music, or timer. Those who love multitasking shouldn’t miss it.
— Powerful cameras with Photonic Engine and auto focus selfie shooter:
The iPhone 14 and Plus models sport primary (f /1.5) and ultra-wide (f/2.4) cameras on the back but still have a 12-megapixel resolution. These sensors have been enhanced with a faster aperture.
The Pro versions, iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max, come with significant improvement in the camera section. A quad-pixel sensor with a 48-megapixel resolution (f/1.8) has been added to the primary camera, making it 65% bigger than the sensor in the iPhone 13 Pro.

All the models of iPhone 14 series are blessed with a new feature called ‘Photonic Engine.’ This exclusive feature will create Deep Fusion before the photos are compressed. It will "dramatically" improve (49%) low-light performance of the iPhone model's cameras, including the selfie cameras.

With a redesigned main camera that captures 49% more light and new Photonic Engine technology, Apple’s iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus address a major weakness in smartphone cameras: low-light shooting.
Apple said that the Photonic Engine technology works on all the new phones' cameras, including its new selfie camera and ultrawide rear camera. The main wide-angle camera has a larger f1.5 aperture so that its lens can let in more light, CNET reports.

At its fall product launch event on Wednesday, Apple introduced the new camera technology, marking a significant occasion on the yearly technology calendar. The iPhone is a major company in and of itself, but it also serves as the cornerstone of a massive digital ecosystem that is deeply ingrained in the lives of millions of people. This ecosystem includes services like iCloud and Apple Arcade as well as peripherals like AirPods and Apple Watches.
One of the most obvious differences from smartphone models from one year to the next is the camera, especially since that designers have adopted bigger, protruding lenses as a defining feature. Customers may not notice a speedier processor, but they may notice the introduction of additional camera modules, such as the telephoto and ultrawide options now ubiquitous on high-end phones.
