Apple launched its latest iPhone series on Wednesday (September 7) with new or improved features. The long-awaited launch revealed what iPhone 14 will bring to the users—Apple has debuted iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max.&nbsp;

The latest iPhone series has an improved camera and satellite messaging for emergencies and a new digital identification system to obviate the need for a physical sim card. Apple also unveiled a premium digital watch.&nbsp;

But some users have complaints that during the 90-minute presentation at the company's California headquarters, the company did not include any surprise reveals.&nbsp;

After the launch, people have questions like; How good are the new iPhones? Are they worth the money? Should we upgrade the existing iPhone?&nbsp;

Let's have a look at how good the new iPhones are.

As expected, the new phones come with improved cameras, sharper sensors, faster processors, and a longer-lasting battery.&nbsp;

This time, Apple has even leaned into safety technologies like an “Emergency SOS” function. It will let users request help when they are in remote areas without a wireless connection.&nbsp;

There is also a motion sensor which will be capable to detect serious car crashes and automatically connect to emergency services.&nbsp;

Safety as a service is interesting as a value proposition, but is it enough to attract potential buyers?&nbsp;

Santosh Rao, a technology analyst said, "It's good to have all these features, but it's not enough to just kind of drop everything and go out and buy a new phone yet."&nbsp;

Notably, the iPhone 14 is not a bad phone, but it's underwhelming as, for many years, apple's new iPhones have mostly featured incremental upgrades and this year's models are no exception.&nbsp;

Technology experts believe innovation, that was once considered to be a hallmark of Apple, is missing in the new iPhones and they simply don't have a 'wow' factor.&nbsp;

Hence, for certain consumers, Apple's new iPhones are worth upgrading. But you can avoid upgrading if your iPhone is not more than two years old.

In times, when Apple's arch-rival Samsung is innovating with foldable phones, Apple is still catching up with improvements.&nbsp;

Other than the iPhone 14, the Apple watch ultra is also creating a lot of buzz. It's a more durable watch and designed for outdoor enthusiasts. But at 799 dollars, it is expensive.&nbsp;

Bob O’Donnell, a technalysis researcher said, "Obviously the Watch Ultra is expensive, but look, it's not for everybody, right? There's very few people that need a device that rugged and that capable, but for people who are divers, it's a big deal."&nbsp;

"They didn't mention the cost of the oceanic app -- that's I'm sure not going to be cheap. But still diver computers are very expensive so to get that capability as a potential is certainly going to be attractive to a certain group of people, and again, if you're a hardcore hiker or an ultra-marathoner, then that kind fo stuff is going to be cool, but that's a pretty small portion of the population," he added.&nbsp;

The new offerings from Apple seem to have incremental improvements rather than groundbreaking new innovations.&nbsp;Let's see if the iPhone maker will be able to drive demand by persuading consumers to upgrade.&nbsp;
