The iPhone craze:
The various media groups are updating on record demand for Apple's new device, the iPhone 14. In Partner they reported an all-time record and in Pelephone they are talking about an influx to Eilat from distant cities.
Partner updated today that an all-time record was broken in the pre-sale of iPhone 14. According to the company, the amount of orders more than doubled compared to the pre-sale of iPhone 13 last year.
The most requested models are the Pro and Pro Max series, with the Pro Max models leading the demand and sales charts.
The most requested color is purple.
The most requested volume is 256GB.
Also, Partner offers a trade-up of up to NIS 3,000 when returning an old device.
Pelephone held the Laban night event in Eilat, where the devices are of course sold without VAT, a significant discount of hundreds of shekels on a device, and record demand for all models was also recorded there.
The company says that some of the customers said that they came specifically to Eilat to buy a device at a cheaper price, not only from Be'er Sheva which is relatively close to Eilat, but also from Ashdod, Ashkelon and even Tel Aviv.
Huge queues in Tel Aviv
The official iPhone 14 launch event kicked off last night at the iDigital complex, in the Sharona complex, Tel Aviv. As every year, the chain celebrates the launch with a "white night" event. At midnight, the sale began.

It is already possible to point to higher than expected demand for the new device.
In the pre-order week, there was an increase of over 56% in iPhone 14 orders compared to the same period last year when the previous version of the device was sold.
In the launch area, the company's customers began to take their place in the increasingly long line already from the early afternoon hours in preparation for the start of the sale instead of midnight.
Communicate without reception and take selfies in a better way
As you remember, about two weeks ago Apple introduced its new series of iPhones.
iPhone 14 Plus comes with a 6.7-inch screen, while the iPhone 14 comes with a 6.1-inch screen.
The new smartphones also include a traffic accident detection mode.
The interesting innovation is a satellite connection with the iPhone 14, so that you can communicate even in places where there is no reception.
This is a solution for use in an emergency situation against security forces.
Apple built software so that the iPhone knew how to work with satellites.
The software on the smartphone shows the user where to point the phone at the sky, so that it is directly in front of the satellite.
The solution is currently active in text messages, where Apple includes pre-prepared messages that can be easily sent.
You can also share your location with the Find My App service.
The iPhone 14 already includes a connection for two years for free and will be available from November in the US and Canada.

The new iPhones come with the A15 Bionic processor.
This allows for smoother movement of graphics in games.
It includes a dedicated image processor, which comes to assist the camera.
The iPhone 14 and 14 Plus have an array of two sensors: the main camera is 12 megapixels, when it knows how to offer better results in places with weak lighting conditions.
The front camera is 12 megapixels, which also shows improvement in low light conditions and includes for the first time autofocus.
The camera knows how to focus faster on selfies.
