MacRumors saysthat the logo's depiction of a
constellation-filled night sky indicates that the iPhone 14's
long-rumored satellite connectivity capability may be unveiled at
the Cupertino event.
Following T-Mobile's introduction of satellite connectivity,
Tim Farrar, a satellite communications expert,
said in a series of tweets that it was intended to anticipate
Apple's release of its own satellite connectivity feature for the
iPhone in collaboration with
Globalstar, Inc.(NYSE:
GSAT).
Globalstar announced in February that it had purchased 17 new
satellites in order to offer "continuous satellite services" to a
"potential customer," which could be Apple.
As it builds anticipation for the event, Apple, in typical
manner, was light on details about what would be unveiled, and who
its new partners will be.
The event will kick off at 10 a.m. ET on Wednesday.
