2019 iPhones Said to Feature Revamped Taptic Engine and Front-Facing Slo-Mo Video Recording

Apple is widely expected to unveil a trio of new iPhones in September, and 9to5Mac (https://9to5mac.com/2019/07/23/iphone-11-models-camera-processor/) has revealed a few new features we can expect.

First, the report claims all three models will feature a revamped Taptic Engine codenamed "leap haptics," but it is unknown what will be different. 2019 iPhones (https://www.macrumors.com/roundup/2019-iphones/) are expected to ship without 3D Touch (https://www.macrumors.com/2019/07/09/no-3d-touch-on-2019-iphones-again-rumored/), with Apple moving to long-press-based context menus in iOS 13 (https://developer.apple.com/design/human-interface-guidelines/ios/controls/context-menus/), so there could be related hardware changes.





In addition, the report says the front-facing camera on <!---->2019 iPhones<!----> will gain support for slo-mo video recording at 120 frames per second.





Beyond that, the report corroborates some previous rumors. For example, the rumored wide-angle lens on higher-end <!---->2019 iPhones<!----> is expected to enable users to automatically repair a photo or a video to fit in a subject that may have accidentally been cut off from the initial shot, as Bloomberg previously reported (https://www.macrumors.com/2019/01/30/apple-3d-laser-cameras-2020-iphones/).





Earlier this year, reputable analyst Ming-Chi Kuo (https://www.macrumors.com/roundup/ming-chi-kuo/) said <!---->2019 iPhones<!----> will also feature larger batteries to accommodate a two-way charging feature (https://www.macrumors.com/2019/04/01/two-way-wireless-charging-2019-iphones/) that would allow accessories like AirPods (https://www.macrumors.com/guide/airpods/) or an Apple Watch (https://www.macrumors.com/roundup/apple-watch/) to charge on the back of the iPhone.





Apple's annual iPhone event is likely just over six weeks away.
