Apple iPhone 14 Pro tipped to get an always-on display

Source: Apple Insider

Apple might want to highlight the new lock screen widgets of iOS 16 by finally bringing an always-on display option to its iPhone lineup. In his Power On newsletter, Bloomberg's Mark Gurman reports that the iPhone 14 Pro will be the first device to get this option. Apple has reportedly developed the feature for years, but the lock screen changes prompted its release. This Pro model will show the same lock screen widgets as other members of the iPhone 14 range. But the screen will remain at low brightness and framerate, which could help it drain your battery less. There will also supposedly be a setting that prevents sensitive data from appearing on display.

Aside from the always-on display, the iPhone 14 Pro will reportedly get an updated front-facing camera, 48-megapixel rear camera system, an A16 processor, thinner bezels, and an update to the pill-shaped cut out and hole punch instead of the notch. The non-Pro models will supposedly feature more modest changes, with the phones retaining the A15 processor. But the 5.4-inch mini model will reportedly be replaced by a 6.7-inch version. All models will keep the Lightning port, but there are plans to shift to USB-C in 2023.
