Apple faces sharp criticism hours following revealing its new series of phones, iPhone 14, iPhone 14 Plus, iPhone 14 Pro, and iPhone 14 Pro Max.
Criticism focused on the lack of new phones, the innovation element that has long characterized them, including the feature of satellite communication, because it will only benefit 4 countries.
Sky News Arabia said in a report that the event, which was followed by millions of people around the world, caused a “shock” among a large number of followers, who saw that the “iPhone maker” deceives users by offering an old phone, but in a new way.
It quoted the writer who specializes in technology affairs, Alan Al-Qarih, as saying that the launch event of the new iPhone 14 series applies to the saying, “Listen, rejoice, check, grieve,” as it can be said that Apple succeeded in disguising the iPhone 13 phones and launching it once more in the name of iPhone 14.
He adds that the iPhone 14 Plus phone, in particular, embodies a camouflaged version that combines the “equipment” of the iPhone 13 and iPhone 13 Pro Max, in terms of the old A15 Bionic processor, screen size and cameras, so that Apple with this step can sell “a phone with old equipment” at the price of a new phone, without having to For any modification even to the design.
He said: It is unacceptable that the design or basic shape of the iPhone has not been changed for nearly 4 years.
Even the modification that took place on my iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max, was fake. The notch is still integrated into the screen and its design changes with notifications and calls, as Apple did not succeed in integrating the camera and front sensors in a hidden way on the screen.
