Apple shoots MLS match entirely on 15 iPhones
Apple TV will broadcast a special live Major League Soccer (MLS) match on May 27, which will be entirely captured using iPhone 17 Pro devices. This event marks the first time a major live sports event will be exclusively filmed using smartphones.
Key Takeaways
- Apple TV will broadcast a special MLS match on May 27.
- The match was captured entirely on iPhone 17 Pro devices.
- Apple used 15 iPhones for the full live production.
- Variety says this is the first major live sports event shot only on smartphones.
