Another notable change this year is the removal of the physical SIM card tray. With US carriers more widely supporting eSIMs, Apple is getting rid of the slot on the edge of the iPhone so that users no longer have to fiddle with the tiny bits of plastic and can instead get their phones provisioned remotely.
The company also introduced a new service called Emergency SOS via satellite. Apple"designed and built custom components and specific software so that iPhone 14 antennas can connect to satellites' unique frequencies," it claims. A new app will show you where to point your phone to establish a connection when you're out in the wilderness, so you can get a satellite link and send your emergency message.
You can also use some of the new Emergency SOS features while you're hiking using Find My, so you don't need to be in a crisis situation to use it. The service launches in November and will be free for two years with the iPhone 14 in the US and Canada. No word yet on how much Apple intends to charge after that time.
The iPhone 14 starts at $799 while the Plus starts at $899 and they'll be available to pre-order on September 9th. The base model will be available on September 16th, while the Plus comes out on October 7th.All products recommended by Engadget are selected by our editorial team, independent of our parent company.
