Africa-Press – Zimbabwe. <\/strong><\/span>San Francisco \u2013 Cupertino-based tech giant Apple is reportedly planning to launch iPhone models without a SIM slot by September 2022.<\/p>\n

Earlier this week, a rumour from Brazilian website Blog do iPhone claimed that iPhone 15 Pro models launching in 2023 might not have a physical SIM card slot.<\/p>\n

However, a new report from MacRumors says that Apple has advised major US carriers to prepare for the launch of eSIM-only smartphones by September 2022.<\/p>\n

It is possible that Apple might remove the physical SIM card slot starting with some iPhone 14 models, rather than iPhone 15 models as originally rumoured.<\/p>\n

It is also said that there will be support for two eSIM cards, ensuring dual SIM functionality. The removal of the SIM card slot could further improve water resistance.<\/p>\n

The next flagship series, the iPhone 14 line-up, will come with up to 2 terabyte of storage.<\/p>\n

Apple will adopt QLC flash storage for next year’s iPhone and that, thanks to the newer storage technology, will increase capacity to 2TB.<\/p>\n

Apple is also reportedly planning to add a 48MP camera lens to the iPhone next yearfollowed by a periscope lens in 2023.<\/p>\n

These iPhone camera upgrades over the next two years will help to boost Taiwanese manufacturer Largan Precision’s market share, revenue, and profit.<\/p>\n

The 48MP camera will be limited to iPhone 14 Pro models and allow for 8K video recording, up from 4K currently.<\/p>\n

8K videos would be suitable for viewing on Apple’s AR\/VR headset that may launch next year. | IANS<\/p>\n
