- The iPhone 14 has been on the market for a few days.
- Many YouTubers test what the smartphone can do.
- The accident detection was finally put to the test in detail.
Apple was able to inspire many fans with the release of the iPhone 14. The iPhone 14 Pro in particular has some interesting innovations and promising features. One of the most important is probably the integrated accident detection.
The iPhone uses this to recognize if you are involved in an accident and after a while it will contact the emergency services and pass your location on to the emergency services. YouTuber TechRax is known for its outlandish smartphone reviews and has now amassed almost 8 million subscribers.
In a video he has now also tested the accident detection and simulated a total of three accidents. After a failure, the accident detection was activated twice and worked correctly. The iPhone waits about 10 seconds after the accident and then starts a 10-second countdown.
Once this has expired, another 10-second countdown will start, which will be accompanied by loud alarm sounds. Then the emergency call is dialled, although TechRax naturally canceled the alarm beforehand.

In conclusion, the conclusion can be drawn that the accident detection, at least in the case of car accidents, works very well. Whether the performance will look just as good when falling off the bike or on foot is still unclear, as such a scenario is difficult to simulate.
