The month of September is approaching, in fact it is already just around the corner, and as usual, also the launch of the new iPhone 14, of which we have practically known the confirmation of one of its most anticipated new functions and that , surely, more will celebrate the vast majority of users. Keep reading that Mark Gurman has also entered the scene.
“Always On” screen for new iPhones
For months it has been rumored that the screen of the iPhone 14 would have a function that the Apple Watch already has since Series 5 , including the Apple Watch Series 7, and excepting the SE. This is the Always On screen , also known as always active . It is a rumor that has sounded very strongly around the possible news that the new iPhone could have.
In addition, when Apple at WWWDC also presented another of the great novelties of iOS 16 , everything made more sense than ever, since after all, the inclusion of widgets on the lock screen and the customization of it, left fall that this always active screen could arrive in the month of September as one of the advantages or exclusive functions of the new models.
Well, in this case it has been the prestigious Mark Gurman who has been able to confirm that this function will be present in some models of the next iPhone 14, specifically in two of them, since it will only be available for the iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 models. ProMax . This is due to the characteristics that this Always On function needs so that autonomy consumption is not a negative consequence of it.
This new function has a series of characteristics that will ensure that its implementation and use by users does not reduce the autonomy of their devices. In the first place, Apple will allow, as it cannot be otherwise, that each one can activate or not this function from the iPhone Settings. The way to work will be by lowering the brightness almost to a minimum and doing the same with the screen’s refresh rate , which is expected to be 1 Hz , according to screen analyst Ross Young. Let us remember that currently, the models that have a Pro Motion screen only go down to 10 Hz, this being one of the possible reasons why the iPhone 13 Pro and 13 Pro Max could not enjoy this new function either.
It really is news that, without having official confirmation from Apple, obviously, it seems that we can confirm given all the movements that the Cupertino company has made in recent months, especially at WWDC. The great novelty of iOS 16 is the lock screens, which with this always-on screen function, will be much more useful and, above all, will allow users to enjoy them on a day-to-day basis, so except for the surprise of Last minute, everything seems to indicate that we will see this function in the month of September together with the new Apple terminals.
