You can make FaceTime calls in Full HD mode now, but do you know how? Social distance measures aimed at slowing the spread of the coronavirus have changed the way people work, contact family and friends, and engage in leisure activities, which is reflected in the increase in video calls and voice messages.
Apple has improved its video call system
That’s why Apple has taken the lead, and now in all generations of iPhones from 8 to 11 will have FaceTime HD (1080p). To activate this option, it is necessary to download the latest version of iOS, 14.2, Apple’s smartphone operating system. The novelty, relatively important given the number of video calls in confinement time, was not particularly highlighted by Cupertino.
You can make FaceTime in Full HD on the iPhone, you know how?
Only the latest version of Apple’s smartphone, the iPhone 12, can break this limit with FaceTime HD calls over 5G networks.
How to make FaceTime calls in Full HD?
Users don’t have to do anything to get this new feature to their handsets, except to upgrade to the latest available version of iOS 14.2. These new Full HD quality video calls will only be available when made over the WiFi network, if made over a mobile network they will remain at the previous 720p. Thus, both the iPhone 8, iPhone X, iPhone XR, and iPhone 11 can only reach these resolutions through a WiFi network.
With iPhone 12 you can use 5G
The iPhone 12 can enjoy this quality through the mobile network, thanks to its 5G connectivity can afford to broadcast with much higher quality. Even so, for the rest of the devices and for the video calls that we make from home, it is not bad at all to enjoy these Facetimes with more quality than until now.
