Overview
- Apple placed 14 iPhone 18 Pro units around Dodger Stadium to capture the Dodgers vs. Giants Friday Night Baseball season finale.
- Eight of the phones streamed live video over a dedicated T‑Mobile private 5G network to ensure low latency and reliable feeds inside the crowded stadium.
- Devices were embedded in tight locations such as the pitch clock, backstop, foul pole and both bullpens to provide vantage points standard broadcast rigs cannot reach.
- Apple is using the phones to record live gameplay plus dugout, batting practice and stadium-atmosphere scenes, and the game is available at no extra cost to Apple TV subscribers.
- The deployment builds on a 2025 test that used four iPhone 17 Pros and serves as a live demonstration of the iPhone 18 Pro’s upgraded imaging and connectivity, with one outlet reporting this finale is also being prepared for Immersive Video on Apple Vision Pro.
