Apple introduced the iPhone 15 family at the last launch. The phone had many talked about features. The iPhone 15 family, which is indistinguishable from previous models in terms of design, announced new features in terms of performance and features. In particular, features such as the titanium frame on the iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max were highly appreciated. What about the things that Apple promotes as innovative, but actually says, “This was already on Android devices?” What do we say?
One of the best things Apple has done is to present an already existing feature as if it were bringing it. While doing this, they manage to make it a more remarkable feature by minimizing design and hardware flaws. Let’s take a look at what features or hardware already available on Android the company uses with the iPhone 15 series.
With the iPhone 15, Apple switched to Type-C, which is now indispensable for Android devices.
With the European Union’s uniform charging requirement, it became mandatory for all devices to use Type-C. Apple also joined the Type-C trend with the iPhone 15 family. Now, new generation iPhone users will be able to charge their phones when they go to the house of someone using an Android device.
The very futuristic-sounding titanium frame has also been used before.
One of the issues that Apple focused on most at the launch was the titanium frame on the iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max. First of all, let’s face it, this is not something that is used very often. Because titanium is an extremely durable and expensive material. However, in 2017, the Essential Phone, which made a big impact at that time, used a titanium frame. It is worth remembering that this phone was the pioneer of many innovations such as the use of ceramics on the back plate and a notch in the camera.
The ability to record 3D video was also an Android feature that could be considered old.
HTC was one of the legendary phone brands of its time, even though it is not worthy of its former glory today. The company also made a splash with its HTC Vive virtual reality glasses. Since it stepped into the 3D world, it also released a phone called HTC EVO 3D in 2017.
This phone allowed 3D content to be rendered and displayed directly on the phone. Apple introduced the Spatial Recording feature on the iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max devices, partly in preparation for Vision Pro. This technology allows precious moments to be recorded in 3D and watched over and over again with Vision Pro.
The periscope telephoto lens, included in the iPhone 15 Pro Max model, has also been seen on Android devices for a while.
One of the features that Apple introduced as a major innovation was the periscope telephoto lens coming to the iPhone 15 Pro Max. This lens has appeared on some Android devices since the Huawei P30 Pro released in 2019, although not on every Android phone.
What awaits us in the coming period?
Apple is a company that likes to present something that has been done before as if it had done it itself. However, while doing this, they also manage to direct the industry due to their very successful integration and their own recognition. Let’s see what innovations we will see before the iPhone 16 comes out. What comes to your mind? Let’s meet in the comments.
