Abstract:
Apple will hold a press conference at 10 a.m. Pacific time today, and the company is widely expected to announce new iPhones and other new products. Before the launch, Apple's new CEO John Ternus released a mysterious trailer video, adding to the suspense of the event.
In this short video, a beam of light shines on the edge of the iPhone, and the light source comes from a hexagonal shape that changes in size. There is speculation that this may be hinting at the rumored mechanical aperture upgrade of the iPhone 18 Pro.
It is rumored that the main camera of iPhone 18 Pro and/or iPhone 18 Pro Max will use a 48-megapixel Fusion camera and be equipped with a variable aperture design. The design is expected to allow users to control the amount of light entering the lens and sensor, thereby improving depth of field control. However, since smartphones are limited by their body size and the iPhone's image sensor is usually smaller, it is still uncertain how much actual improvement this improvement can bring.
In addition to the iPhone 18 Pro series, Apple is also expected to release the company's first foldable screen iPhone today, rumored to be called iPhone Duo.
John Ternus took over as Apple CEO on September 1, and Tim Cook is currently the company’s executive chairman. Ternus joined Apple in 2001, was promoted to vice president of hardware engineering in 2013, and became senior vice president of hardware engineering in 2021.
