[Asia Economy Reporter Minyoung Cha] "Apple is full of people striving to innovate together. We create products and experiences that enrich people's lives."

Apple CEO Tim Cook said this during the keynote speech of the globally live-streamed 'Far out' Apple event at 10 a.m. on the 7th (local time in Cupertino, USA), introducing the four models of the iPhone 14 series, Apple Watch Series 8, Apple Watch SE, Apple Watch Ultra, and new AirPods Pro.

The 1 hour and 34 minutes video started with grand background music, moving the stage from space to Earth, and then to the view of Apple Park, Apple's headquarters in Cupertino, USA. Starting with Tim Cook, several speakers appeared to directly explain the product features.

Tim Cook emphasized, "When you set a destination with the iPhone, the Apple Watch guides the way, and users can bring health information from the Apple Watch to view on the iPhone," adding, "This is one example of hardware and software working together, and such integration can only be done by Apple."

iPhone 14 series high-end line, the Pro model

Especially during the introduction of the premium lines, Pro and Pro Max, which had significant design changes, the focus was on highlighting the 'Dynamic Island.' In the Pro lineup, the iconic 'notch' of the iPhone was removed, and a pill-shaped 'punch-hole' design was applied only to the camera module area. The Dynamic Island goes a step further from the punch-hole design by allowing interaction with notifications. When a notification arrives, the Dynamic Island expands.

Greg Joswiak, Senior Vice President of Worldwide Marketing, who gave the explanation, said, "We adopted a new front design to add symbolism," and added, "With the new TrueDepth camera, we designed components to fit a smaller size and for the first time placed the proximity sensor behind the display, reimagining how users interact with the iPhone."

Tim Cook also mentioned, "We are adding safety features to the iPhone," referring to crash detection and satellite-connected emergency SOS functions. He added, "Creating personalized and essential products is why we continue to improve the best-in-industry experience."
