Check Out This Music Video Shot With 40 iPhones

Japanese band Kroi's latest music video for the "Method" single was recorded using 40 iPhone 16 Pro models, according to Apple.


The iPhones were used to capture video from every angle simultaneously, with all of the shots merged into a single 3-minute music video.

Apple shared details on Instagram, and Apple's marketing chief Greg Joswiak also highlighted the video on social media.


The video was directed by Japanese filmmaker Taichi Kimura, who was also recently featured on Apple Music. Apple regularly highlights videos, movies, and TV shows that use the iPhone for its ongoing "Shot on iPhone" series.
