The announcement of the iPhone 13 is getting closer and closer, and while there will be other important news, something that has been said little like the always-on screen might be your best asset.
The time we’ll see the iPhone 13 is approaching, probably that same September, just two months away. We have talked a lot about its novelties, like the best of the camera, always welcome, and its new True Motion screen at 120 Hz, like the one that the iPad Pro has already had for several generations. However, there is something that has not been talked about much: the always-on screen. It was Mark Gurman who brought this new feature to the fore, despite the fact that there have been rumors about the feature for several generations, and something that seems unimportant could mean a drastic change in the iPhone.
The Apple Watch was the first Apple device to have the always-on, “Always On Display” screen since Series 5. I skipped this generation of Apple Watch, but fell with Series 6, which also includes this functionality. Some users turn it off because it involves higher battery consumption, but the reality is that once you get used to it, it’s hard to give up what it offers you. Yes, the battery drains sooner, but Apple implemented this feature to keep the impact as low as possible, and even less so if you’re using spheres where black is the predominant color. , since all the black parts of the screen, they will be turned off. The technology is expected to be very similar on the iPhone 13.
On the watch, this allows you to see the time without having to turn your wrist, but on the iPhone this feature could go much further, and if Apple adds it to the new iPhone model, it should get the most out of it. left. What does it mean? There would be no point in having an always-on lock screen in which all we see is the time, which is happening at that time when the screen is on. If now we have a screen that is always on, it will be to be able to see more information, such as the number of notifications we have, and why not the weather in our region., or upcoming calendar appointments. Simply put, if the always-on screen is coming, it should come with a change in the design of the lock screen, and that’s something we’ve been waiting for a long time.
We already know iOS 15, but Apple still has a trump card up its sleeve with its new smartphone, and I’m sure we’ll see some iOS 15 news that wasn’t shown to us in the last Keynote presentation because we’ll have to wait. The iPhone 15 is out, because it will be exclusive modifications for this smartphone. For those of us moving to the new iPhone model, this is great news, not so much for those who plan to stick with our current model.. And if the always-on screen is included in the iPhone 13, we will finally have to wait for a new lock screen.
