In order to download iOS updates, users typically need to be connected to a WiFi network and ensure that their phone has sufficient battery. The former is because some iOS updates, especially major ones, are pretty big and downloading it over LTE can take a while, not to mention can eat into data caps.
With every release of the iPhone, Apple releases some new official cases to go with them. Now, with the previous iPhones that sported rounded corners, Apple left the bottom of the cases empty to allow the speaker to be used unobstructed.

When LTE was first released, one of the issues people had was with battery life where unsurprisingly, it drained battery faster than 3G.

A lot of businesses still largely rely on WiFi for communications and connectivity. However, the problem with WiFi is that it can be affected by things like range, where if you walk from one end of an area to another, you might lose coverage. This is versus cellular connectivity where the signal strength is stronger.
When the iPhone 12 was first announced, one thing that was conspicuously missing from Apple’s announcement was battery life.

One of the new features that Apple introduced in iOS 14 was the ability to add widgets to your home screen.
