Apple iPhone X: iOS 11 confirms features and reveals new features
A few days before the presentation of Apple, we fill up with new information thanks to the leak of the final version of iOS 11.
Our colleagues from 9to5Mac have analyzed this new version of the system for a long time to detect information about the new products that Apple will unveil in a few days. The first element is of course a new confirmation of the design of this new iPhone and its edge-to-edge OLED screen that is recognized by the demarcation of the sensors on the front, above the screen.
Goodbye to the main iPhone button
Did you find the navigation in iOS confused because the system used only one navigation button instead of three for Android? Prepare yourself because it's going to be much worse with the new iPhone.According to iOS 11, the system will not use a virtual home button on the new iPhone. Instead, there will be a small line-based screen, which will bring up a dynamic area in the manner of the dock present on the new iPad Pro.
The power button should also be reviewed and become the "slice button" to reflect its new uses. It will indeed trigger a number of functions of iOS 11 that are not related to the power supply of the phone. A double click will launch Apple Pay, while a long press will trigger Siri.
Physically, this button would become semi-virtual, like the home button on the iPhone 7. That is, it would be virtual, but with a haptic feedback simulating a physical button.
Identification by Face ID
The files of iOS 11 confirm that Face ID will be the commercial name of the new method of identification of the iPhone by visual recognition of the user. A 3D animation illustrating a user search by the camera was also found. This animation looks very similar to Windows Hello on Windows 10.Emotions faithful to your expressions
Some emojis will have the right to a 3D version that it will be possible to share with iMessage. These animojis (for animated emojis) will follow the user's face to reproduce his facial expression and the movement of his lips. Apple will rely heavily on 3D and the front camera of its new iPhone.4K 60 fps camera and new portrait mode
The new iPhone will benefit from a dual camera, similar to that of the iPhone 7 Plus in 2016, but arranged vertically. It will be able to film in 4K at 60 images per second, a first to our knowledge on smartphone. The camera can also shoot in 1080p at 240 frames per second, or 4K at 24 frames per second.The most interesting is the novelties brought to the portrait mode, that is to say the possibility of creating an artificial bokeh effect behind the subject photographed. The new version, called Portrait Lighting, which would simulate different lighting on the subject of the photo. Here are the proposed lighting: natural, studio, scene and contour. It will be necessary to wait until the presentation of September 12 to learn more about this novelty.
True Tone Display and OLED wallpapers
Until now reserved for the iPad, the True Tone Display will be compatible with the new iPhone. It allows to change the calibration of the screen on the fly to adapt it to the ambient light of the user.
Apple has also added new wallpapers to iOS that take into account the specificities of OLED displays with bright colors and lots of black. According to our colleagues, the screen will have a definition of 2436 by 1125 pixels, difficult to find a less standard definition.
