Hey Chaps! Have you bought an iPhone 14??
Got my 14 Pro today. I can't use the Max with one hand so standard size it is.
Got my 14 pro max in gold today, looking forward to see how developers utilise the dynamic island.
Nope, i will keep my Alpine Green 13 Pro. Getting a 14 Pro would be a non sense. I always keep my phone 4 years. Next phone will be a Samsung in 4 years, if they mix with Snapdragon in France. If they keep Exynos in Europe, i will see then
Yes got my spaceblack 14 pro few hours ago. Its a good phone. But so was my 13 Pro.
Nope, I’m sticking to my 13 Pro Max, it has 1TB, so I plan to use it long term
The 16.1 beta fixes the island reachability issue, the island now moves down in reachability mode and is much easier to use
Good point!
Good to know! Thanks!
@@Thetechchap
Good and bad are RELATIVE. 😉
but don’t you still need to enter this different mode to be able to reach the island? I’m still not sold on this
Android phones have One hand mode, wherein the display shrinks in size and can be navigated with one thumb. Apple lags behind in useful features as usual.
Just upgraded to the 14 Pro Max from XS Max and am blown away by the battery life and 120hz screen the most - awesome!
This is the exact upgrade I’m doing. Super excited to get it!
If i get the money that i need then i will do the same. Sticking with S22 Ultra is awesome but i should change my Xs Max cuz battery is horseshit :D
@@xdlikadam2101 just keep one phone
I'm proud you waited 4 years to upgrade.
Yeah that's a huuuge upgrade! I think anyone on a XS or earlier should get this
Been waiting for your review and as always,u did it so well, well done tech chap
I've just came across your channel the other day and I gotta say I'm a huge fan of your videos.
Keep up the good work!
I just got my iphone 14 pro and stilling waiting for my pitaka case, really love the phone, the camera great!
Love the video transitions. Solid job man
Good god, Tom. Well done! Yours has so far been the most comprehensive and nuanced review of the new iPhone, even counting the "mainstream"/popular channels. You've covered exactly everything one needs to see if they're considering an upgrade. With all the previous videos I've watched, I've been confident I wanted to switch from 13 Pro Max to the new 14 Pro Max, but with your review I've realized that the gap between them isn't all that high. Thanks for the amazing review as always!
Dynamic island blocking deeper into the content, its impractical.
The cinematic mode looks markedly better this year and I think for budding youtubers or other creatives, that could be worth the upgrade (from an older phone at least).
Agreed! Even cheapest iPhone 14 has it
You're just better off using the 2X camera because you'll get natural depth of field from how large the focal length is
@@sydguitar99 have you tested that? I don’t see how that’s actual compression cause 2x is just a crop.
the cameras are the only reason i need it.
Should be the price of the thing some people buy a second hand car for that price getting ridiculous now
Thank you! Finally someone mentioned smudges on camera because of dynamic island.
Thanks for a very detailed review comparing the 2 top iPhone models. Sure sounds like I can hold off on upgrading as I have an iPhone 13 Pro max and I can't really tell the difference in photo and video qualities. Sure the oddly named "dynamic island" is cool, but isn't worth the $900+ I need to pay after trading in my old phone which still has 100% battery capacity. Cheers, mate! From Canada.
The camera portion of this video was amazing. Great job Tom!
TTC! Awesome video man. I was wondering, a lot of reviewers seem to have mentioned that while very similar, the 14 pro series seems to have just a bit worse battery life than their 13 pro counterparts. I'm wondering, is that comparing the 14 pro series in iOS16 to the 13 pro series in iOS15? I can't seem to find the answer anywhere, but can the worse battery life merely be due to the new operating system rather than just objectively worse battery life (essentially, I'm asking if you've tested the 13 pro and 14 pro battery life in iOS 16 and found that the 14 Pro is still a bit worse)?
I believe the touch intentions for the dynamic island are consistent with other interactions in the ios. For example single touch on a picture opens it while long press just expands it with other options, same goes for normal notifications and apps.
I maybe in minority but I prefer the existing implementation.
Great video as always. Always love your reviews!
I appreciate uploading the video in 60fps. You get a better feel for features such as ProMotion
Great video Tech chap. I personally upgraded from my 12 pro max pacific blue to an iPhone 14 pro max deep purple which I’m totally loving. The new color looks really awesome in various lighting conditions and the dynamic island is an interesting functionality to have on the new notch.
I also have 12 pro max and thought about upgrading. Would you say it worth it?
Shooting the entire review with the phone you're reviewing is a genius idea that made it the best review on RUclips 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
I liked your video so much better than others. Keep doing the good work Tom. You earned a sub forever. I'm def gonna stuck here till you reach 10M and more as you deserve it. Thank You for the work you put in for us. 😄
I received my 14 Pro a few days ago, upgraded from the 11 Pro Max. I am 100% happy with this upgrade. The smaller size, better camera, DI and Always On are very nice and functional. Best phone I’ve ever owned.
Looking forward to getting my hands on it! Thanks for the review.
I want Apple to do more work on their potrait mode and telephoto camera .This is the camera and mode that people use the most and loves to use .So improving that will be amazing and I really don’t understand why Apple isn’t using the lidar sensor for portrait mode .It’s been three years since they introduced the lidar sensor but still they are not using it to improve the edge direction and depth mapping while taking portrait mode photos or cinematic video
The thing that I do not like about the dynamic island, is that its at the top of the screen and the only way to get to it is either by invoking one handed mode or maneuvering your hand to reach it which leaves more possibility of dropping your phone. The camera is not that big of a change for me due to not using my phone as my primary camera.
Cool review! Can I ask which mic are you using for filming this video? Thank you
Wow loved the beginning switch up between the two phones. Very cool and smooth
I received my IPhone 14 Pro Max on Friday morning. I’ve gone for a 512 GB version in Deep Purple. I’ve signed up for a 36 month contract through EE. Loving all the features on the phone, I’ve yet to scratch the true surface of the phone. I’ve installed a Mous Limitless 5.0 Aramid Fibre Case alongside a Spigen glass screen protector. Glad I moved over from Android that is for sure.
I’ve been looking for a 36 month contract from EE. I didn’t realised they did it? Do you have a link bro?
Poor who buy phones on a contract are fking stupid and poor mate by doing so you're actually paying way more money by the end of your contract payment plans haha 😄 🤦♂️
Finally a real review! 🎉
This was very helpful💚
I’m an IPhone user since Iphone 4.
Skipped the 7 abs the XS.
Liked the 11, 12 and 13. The cameras are the most important feature for me.
I have a S22 ultra and a 14Pro in black in front of me. I installed GCAM on the S22 ultra. No comparison, the pictures of the Samsung are substantially better than the Iphone 14 Pro!! Video on the Iphone is better, though.
My 13 pro is on sale, will switch to Samsung this year.
One thing to note, you have made a comment about recording at night and switching to the 3x lens. If you are recording at full res (which I assume you were) and at full fps (which I would assume too), then you can’t change lenses at all. So that’s just 3x zoom on the main lens. I’m assuming the software is updated to make the most of the 4x binning in lowlight video. That 3X button is just digital zoom on the main camera.
So on 4K30 or 1080P it would actually use the telescope lens instead of digital zoom? What you said is rather interesting and would explain why it appears as less sharp. I wonder if they'll update it.
@@lukedeg6621 yes exactly, the iPhone can’t change cameras while recording high quality. Like start zoom and a higher value, then try to zoom out. You can’t.
I think at low quality you can push through them all
@@lukedeg6621 Yea. Basically if you’re going to record a 3x video. Do it from the start because at then it will actually use the telescope lense rather than cropping in the main lense
Love the review. Great info and style. Never got slow or boring. Great pacing. Keep it up. Definitely subscribing. 🎉
I love how this was shot! Really cool video Tom!
We always look forward to your reviews Tom. Some of the best. Heading out the door but will definitely catch this later. 👍📱
I had an i13PM before, and now I have an S22U, which I like better. After watching this video it became clear that it is not worth switching from i13PM to i14PM. So for me, there is no question that I would rather wait for Samsung's answer, the S23U. (Y)
Enjoyed the review. Especially from a EUR/UK point of view. Thanks! What about the ESIM only thing? Does that only apply to the US version? You didn’t mention it, so I assume the normal SIM tray still applies.
Such a great way to open your review. You have become one of my favorite RUclipsrs.
for the last few days I was really interested to take the plunge an upgrade my iphone 12 to a 14 pro max. In the end , I could not. I felt the upgrade was good yes as I would be getting better battery/120htz display/ camera's (yes and for me not really)/ Dynamic Island. Its great but when i look at my 2 year old iphone 12, i decided I am just going to get a portable battery pack and wait for the 15 pro max :). One more thing.. no USB Type-c is a deal breaker for me as I would really life faster charging speeds and ease of using one charger for all my devices (macbook Air, headphones etc ).
Yea I agree imma keep my 12 pro max for another year and see what the 15 pro max offers and then I will upgrade.I still think it’s not worth it to upgrade. And no usb-c js a deal breaker for me as well. All my other devices use it but my damn iPhone. It’s ridiculous. And no split screen on the iPhone. Android been doing that for years. It’s not worth the upgrade
I was thinking of switching to the iPhone 14 but, I love my Note 20 Ultra too much. Only a little circle for the front camera cut out and the always on display keeps the screen off while only displaying the time and date and it's very customizable. Also, The zoom is amazing and I can actually take detailed photos of the moon. The main reason I love this phone though is the in screen fingerprint scanner. I would hate to give that up for face unlock. IDK why apple doesn't do an in screen finger print scanner.
Why you here? You already don’t want iPhone? Hahhahah
Nice video as always. Can you test if the notch covers the RUclips video when it plays 18:9 aspect ratio? I've heard people had problem with the newer iPhone 13 series, since the notch is lower
Great review, editing and presentation 👌
Thank you Sir ✨️
Good video. I do have to say though that the "dynamic island" aka "annoying pill capsule shape screen interrupter" I find quite distracting. I never liked the notch, but this is absurd. It even cuts into the original video mode on the edge that was only an issue on the full screen mode with the notch. Sure Apple made good on a bad design by adding features that technically enhance the cutout, but I am definitely passing on this year and will continue to do so until they come up with something that is more palatable.
Watching this on my iPhone 14 Pro Max in deep purple. It was an amazing upgrade from the XS Max for me
An upgrade from the Xs is huge.
Enjoy the new smartphone - you will be highly satisfied :)
Spoil rich kids be like
Dynamic island's physical cut out is actually a pill and hole cut out with screen in between and the ui makes it looks like a whole pill shape. U can actually see it in direct sunlight
They finally fixed the zoom in/out issue w/c started when they introduced the 3 camera system. It’s now smooth again.
Hey Tom, great initial impressions, thanks! I am curious why you think the way you interact with the dynamic island should be the other way around? Isn’t it consistent with how you would interact with apps and also notifications on the Lock Screen (tap to open app and long press to get more options)? I feel it’s quite a consistent way to interact. I have also seen some other reviewers mention this so maybe I am missing something
You are right, it is congruent, but I think they still intuitively feel that touch and holding feels more restrictive to open the dynamic island window. The dynamic island feels like it should only be a tap away, not a tap and hold every time.
You're right - and I think you could argue both ways. It's just in my mind a dynamic island notification > bigger widget > full screen app - feels like a more natural flow
@@Thetechchap ok got it, thanks! At least I am not missing anything 😬
@@williamwallace410 hmmmm yeah it will make it easier to interact with it
Strangely it's a comparison on a 12 or 11 that might be more beneficial. Looks a 13 to 14 isn't a good value jump. 🤔
Again u do it right..its awesome and very genius recording with the smartphone ur reviewing...always enjoying ur 📹
I really liked how you showed the camera UI /notch as the foreground - watching this on my iPhone was trippy!
Just upgraded from a 12 to a 14pro! Everything runs smoother and the camera is great, just waiting for my Spigen case to come through the post today. Thanks for the really great content! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Exhibit A: this is who the upgrade is for. Not a 13 pro user.
@@justinsbennett thank you for saying it. People complain every year Apple only has an incremental change. But it’s a huge upgrade if you are coming from a 12 Pro and older.
@@TheScottAF it’s such a huge win for the consumer. People can get their money’s worth, it’s good for the environment and if you really want to upgrade every year carriers give such amazing trade in value since iPhones hold their value so well. And with iOS updates every year your device will always feel fresh. I only upgraded from the 12 pro max to the 14 pro max because I felt the upgrades were significant enough for me even though my phone was still amazing as is.
Here with an XR and may possibly cave in this year. Or maybe next year😹
I have a 12 pro max and I can’t upgrade. No lightening port. No split screen. The dynamic island is intrusive and no 8k video. I will keep my 12 pro max and wait for the 15 pro max
It's a hard pass for me this year with the esim. As someone with multiple phones that likes to switch between them it's an absolute nightmare. Unfortunately I'm sure more manufacturers will start to adopt the same but hopefully they'll make it as simple as just activating it from phone to phone. I'm also not a fan of the island...seems far more intrusive than the actual notch and more like a notification that can't be dismissed.
Also makes you easier to track. If you can’t take the sim out then you have to leave your phone behind
@@pkerjay4 you’ll be tracked even if you take your sim out lol. If you truly don’t want to be tracked you need to have essentially NOTHING gps/cell related on you
@@talltale9760 I know man, I did a test in my car with apple carplay. I have no navigation in my car, just CarPlay which mirrors my phone screen. Opened maps and put my destination in, started driving. Then turned my phone off and the maps on the CarPlay screen kept updating after my phone was “off” so essentially your phone is on standby even after you turned it off. Crazy world we live in
Thanks for the video :) I think I am going to make the leap from my 8 Plus to 14 Pro Max!!
Got a sub. Nice edited video
I like that Apple cares about my financial well-being and doesn’t make me want to buy their new phone. Truly inspirational and socially responsible company!
All i can say is i dont regret getting a deal on the 13 pro 512gb for 1040€ new since the difference seems minimal.
Thanks for the video
I’m running the 13 pro max, and absolutely love this thing! After a year of use my overall battery capacity has dropped 1% and I easily get a full day of heavy usage with about 35-40% battery left at the end of my day! I’ll probably end up holding out and waiting to see what the 15 has to offer.
@@Rooster1997 honestly i ll just get applecare+ and forget about the phone for some years , even the 15 doesnt interest me
@13:05 The iPhone’s video quality in action mode is light years ahead of the competition in their implementation of this technology.
Thank you for your honesty chap!
I went for the 14pro Max in D/purple and Watch 8, but my delivery got pushed to early October.
Mines end of October, wanna trade?
Mine is mid October but honestly I don’t want it any sooner because my case doesn’t come until right before
Coming from a iPhone 11 Pro, that definitely can go a couple more years. I do like my iPhone 14 pro and all the extras it adds over the 11 pro.
Why upgrade if your old phone perfectly does what you want lol?
@@reudu Because those kinda people have the funds & money to do so mate and personally for me I find it very stupid to upgrade a phone that's already working fine and could last for a few more years 🙄🤦♂️.
Personally for me I would never upgrade to a brand new latest phone unless my current one breaks lol.
@@HuuTonyTran battery health says hi
@@rochitgurung9090 Actually IPhones has one of the worst battery health in all the phones out there mate and not only that Android Phones have the Highest Battery mAh compared to your shitty IPhones with 3000mAh and my old Samsung Galaxy Note 5 Android Phone had 3000mAh & 4GB of Ram and that Phone is over 10 years old haha it goes to show your crappy apple company IPhones are Overpriced for Specs that also existed years ago buddy ya stupid clown 🙄👊
@@rochitgurung9090 And FYI I use Samsung Galaxy Note10+ 5G Aura Glow Model Android Phone which came out in 2019 and it still would shit on IPhone 13/14 Pro Max lmao 4300mAh Battery/12GB Ram/256GB Storage 6.8" AMOLED DISPLAY/Waterproof & Gorilla Glass 6 Front & Back/Qualcomm SnapDragon 855 Chipset/ Dual Sim Slot & Micro SD Card Slot with S-Pen & Dolby Atmos Speakers. So suck on these balls buddy 🙄👊.
Great VDO as always! Could you share what weather and news widgets you are using in the VDO?
The AOD messed with me for a couple of days but I am already used to it, the little widgets are nice for at a glance information.
My last iphone was the 12 pro and i never used a case. I must have dropped it on the concrete around 20 times, and then it finally cracked a year later. I used Apple Care for the first time, not expecting much, but i sent my phone for repair with their packaging they sent me, and I received a brand new phone 2 days later, i was really surprised
you could have saved yourself all that hassle if you had just you know... put a case on..
@@brads2784 ok
The UK/EU price increase is due to the pound sterling/euro tanking in worth over the last year
But am still probably going to upgrade my s21 ultra to the 14 pro max
In that case accept Dollars for the phone ….I can buy 699 dollars for 612 pounds …Apple want 844 pounds for the 14 !
@@kevanmcnay3079 that won’t work as you can’t buy iPhones directly from Apple in the US, and get it shipped to the UK, unless it’s a third party seller or you or someone else is visiting the US to purchase one. But the bigger problem is the US models now only support e-sim, which might not be be supported by mobile phone networks in the UK and other countries.
Thank you for the awesome video! Ordered mine and used the 15% discount code for the casing as well! 😍 Bless you!
Great review man 👍
Still using my iPhone 8plus along with my iPhone XS. I was gonna get the 14 but decided to wait another year and hopefully the 15 will have some design changes as well. If not oh well, I’ll be getting the 15🙏🏼
Personally I find a lot of feature that the iPhone 14 pro max has over my 12 pro max. So I believe that is is worth the upgrade this year.
you can swipe down from the bottom to have the screen come down to access apps or features that are higher up
Excellent video! Really enjoyed it 👌🏼👌🏼
Will definitely feel a nice jump coming from a 11 Pro Max. Before I would upgrade every 2 years but this phone has been SO GOOD I kept it for three.
I’m on 11 pro max it’s a beast! Il be sticking with it for another year or two let prices drop on these
Money talks
@@emperornephew6487 idiot talks.
4 mins in and you already answered my two questions: thumb reachability and smudges on the front facing camera. And just as I expected, it can be a little frustrating, but I guess we’ll have to adapt if we want the latest and greatest
You don’t have to adapt to anything. You don’t HAVE to touch the dynamic island,the OS works exactly as it did before.
No matter which phone you have you have to wipe the cameras before use..
16.1 beta fixes the reachability.
You don’t have to use the dynamic island 😑
I have 13 pro max gonna wait till 15 I would advise everyone to just get a 13 pro max nothing really new and it’s cheaper
Amazing video man!
Nobody is mentioning this, but the iPhone 14 pro line up also has a redesigned 5g chip.. making it 2 times faster in the same location verses the 13 even two times faster Normal LTE speeds over the 13's as well which in my opinion is a very good upgrade that nobody is talking about for some reason.
I tested both 13 pro max and 14 pro max side by side as well and the 14 was shooting more cool images while the 13 was shooting warm images that was more closer to the actual color of the room. It really isnt a huge leap between the two of you have the 13 pro max you will still take spectacular photos and video
Could you compare 3x telephoto between both in photo and video quality?
@@bobbyroberts2566 With the 3x, the difference is negligible for photo quality, similar ISO, similar shutter speed and file sizes. I got the 14PM but it just does not offer enough of a value add over 13PM, so returning it. Even the main lens has comparable pictures unless you are pixel peeping, all shots from main lens on 14 PM have slower shutter and higher ISO. 48MP RAW seems attractive but it's not for everyday user.
Keep coping LMAOOOO
Your new camera ui review is just sick
Your camera stabilisation is probably knackered after that drop!
The Cinematic mode looked good 👍
Sticking with my 13 Pro Max hopefully the 15 gets rid of lightning and they improve/remove the dynamic Island.
Remove the feature they just introduced? No chance. That’ll be there for at least iPhone 15,16 and probably 17. Next year they’ll probably probably add it to the non pro too.
@@ReLoadXxXxX I said remove or improve it making it smaller, for example
I am also not a big fan :/
@@Gwyndon and lighting port lol its not gonna happen.bro rumors for usb c in iphone are from iphone 12 but doesnt happen
for 13 but doestn happen
for 14 but doesnt happen.
they gonna go portless and everyone needs to buy magsafe..
@@kimsanyt that’s fine
I just got my 14 Pro Max today. I’m really enjoying it tbh. I upgraded from the 11 pro max. Right off the bat:
-the screen and cameras are significantly better.
-The dynamic island.. well.. it does very little. Which is fine tbh. Also I have to politely disagree about the short vs long pressing the island. I like it the way it’s currently set up. (Short for app, long for widget).
-I have turned off the always on display though. It’s just too bright and I personally don’t need it. -Also, Somehow the signal is better? Like it latches on to signals better than before.
- the one thing I’m confused about is if now this phone tracks “rings” even without an Apple Watch. Feedback on this would be much appreciated.
Love your videos. Great one as always! Cheers mate.
I’m sure you’re also loving 120hz pro motion! It’s silky smooth
U using e Sim?
@@thegrimreaper270 1 regular and 1 e sim
@@redg2197 yeah its quite nice
@@atthelord you bought two? Dam
Do you think battery wise would be a big improvement over the Pixel 7 Pro that has been disappointing me alot with my usage ?
Love your videos! 🎉
I think I will skip this one. Would like higher optical zoom and USB-C for more convenience and speed boost of data transfers. I think they did something quite nice with the pill shape and the way it interacts with applications. But they could have done something similar with the notch and that would still have been pretty cool. So I have my doubts with how long they will stick with this "Dymanic Island" thing. Sounds cool, they know how to make things sound cool. The camera improvements - well, on a day to day usage - where people will mostly be seeing content on their phones - you will be hard pressed to see many differences. However Apple always manages to sell people ideas. New stuff to do. Like now action video, last year cinematic. They plant ideas in peoples heads and customers are intrigued and perhaps an old interest is awaken and now a product is here for them to realise their old ideas. This is what the industry does, in the end, they wake up old ideas we had all along in our heads and present products for us with which we thing we might be able to actually do something about them.
i honestly highly doubt theyre going to go usb c. apple removing the sim tray is just a sneak peek for them removing the charging port and going all magsafe. so if you wanna charge your phone via magsafe youll need to buy an accessory thats apple mfi certified. giving apple more money.
I agree with a lot of your points, but what’s really killed it for me was the eSIM only for the USA.
Weirdly I prefer the notch over the island. I prefer to just have a section off the side that I lose out on instead of my video of whatever having to go around some section of screen.
@@catears3053
MagSafe is worse for the battery due to increased heat and also way less efficient. I saw one video where it took 4 hours magesafe charging to 100%… but I don’t remember what phone so take it with a grain of salt. That being said, I can totally see Apple doing that. Making people buy their MagSafe charger. Going with USB-c would just be giving in to the demands of what literally everyone wants, that’s too pro-consumer, lol.
Then again, they’re getting in trouble for not including a charger in one area, they pulled their products, so they may shoot themselves in the foot if they have to include a MagSafe charger.
@@racso5628 I agree. The pixels behind it are just for show, it’s pretty meaningless. Plus, let’s say you want a screen protector, imagine how ugly it would be if it weren’t a full screen protector but had the “i” shaped cutout. Plus, I heard that in bright light you can distinguish the blackened pixels from the notch. This doesn’t bother me because I live in a dark hole 😅
Cinematic mode was a flop imo. Pro res also didn’t fair well. These are gimmicky now and will be for few more years. Not all apple features become good as people show it to be
Not enough of an upgrade over the 13 for me. I want to use the camera mainly for macro shots and they look roughly the same. I just bought the 13 pro max as box opened after watching these reviews. Saved about £350 vs the new Pro max 14 which is well worth it IMO.
Biggest disappointment for me is no Usb-C if it had this I'd probably have paid the premium.
Hopefully they get rid of the lightning connector with the iPhone 15
Same. I’m gonna send this 14 pro back.
@Terraformer00 coming from android it would save me a lot of headaches. I'll need to buy a lot of soon to be obsolete cables now.
@Terraformer00 yeah doesn't solve the issue for my CAR, my workplace laptop, or my DAC.
You should definitely keep the 13 for at least another year. I’ve heard the iPhone 15 series is finally getting USB C and other great improvements.
Do you hit overheating issues when you record long 4k videos on the new iPhone 14 Pro?
Of all the commentary RUclips videos on the new iPhone, yours is the most objective. You have put iPhone 13 side-by-side for comparison. I really like your video!
Is it worth an upgrade from iPhone 11 to iPhone 14 Pro?
Or Should I wait for an year more for 15 Pro?
Keep the 11 they’re all the same
I was really considering returning my 14PM and going back to the 13PM but I noticed the timer app which I use often on the dynamic island. I like that I can see the timer within my apps 😀. But other than that it seems like the exact same experience of the 13PM. I’ll hold on to it a little bit longer I have a 14 day window period to return back to Sprint /T-Mobile.
You could buy an apple watch for the timer, far more useful if it’s on your wrist all the time! It’s like 90% of what I use my watch for🥲
@@tigerstorm 😯 that’s a good idea! 🤔
@@lovemode9862lol😅😅😅
So what did you do…?
Returned the 14PM…?
Amazing video, hope more RUclips moved to 60fps like you. Brilliant content
Really helpful, thanks!
Coming from an owner of iPhone 13 Pro Max, the Dynamic Island feature definitely got me tempted, but I'm skipping for the 15 Pro Max, for the periscopes, USB-C, and perhaps a taller height (6.8-6.9) in general.
Periscope, USB-C & Faster Charging would tempt be be perfection
Hello Chaps! I will settle for now on my iPhone 13 pro max. Still in perfect condition with 100% batt life for 11 mos now. Though I bought macbook air m2 recently to replace my macbook pro 2011 😂! Good review as always Tom 😎
How did you keep your battery life at100%? My 13 is still at 100% but I got it in July.
@@thert2606 based on my observation, I charged my phone when 20-30% low and never fully charged to 100% approx 97-98% only. Hope this helps 😎
Awesome review, thank you brotha!
Dynamic island in direct sunlight becomes translucent around the opaque cutout
Honestly, the Dynamic Island even if it is not vital, is really very well thought out and fun, use a weakness (pill 💊) to make it a strength 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽.
But, it also highlights this aspect of Android manufacturers (in this case LG) who are very creative but never go after their ideas 🤦🏽♂️.
On the other hand, it also highlights this aspect of Apple which always restricts new software features to new iPhones by wanting you to believe that it is related to hardware 🤧.
When I see the pill 💊 and the notch side by side, I can't stop imagining how much display surface Apple would have gained by positioning the pill as a notch and especially by bringing the selfie sensor closer to the Face-iD 🤦🏽♂️
Honestly, if you have an iPhone and it works without problems, it is better to wait until next year for the iPhone 15 which will necessarily have a USB-C port.
Good points. I agree.
not vital at all - i agree
I really don’t care for the cameras, so I wish they would do one without a focus on the cameras
They most likely won’t, a lot of photographers use the iPhone not just as their normal phone but as a camera, considering this was shot on the iPhone, I can see why. Apple also encourages photographers which is why they focus on the camera quality.

Did you make that background using the iOS 16 wallpaper feature or was it from elsewhere?
Great Review , Mine is coming at the end of the Month, decided to go with the Castetify to protect it al, thanks for the discount codel. I learned the hard way after dropping an 11 Pro about 16 hours after purchasing it and cracking the back. I got home to find my Amazon case had just been delivered as well ..... the irony
Just imagine how much storage this 15 minute cinematic video would’ve used💀
Just checked, 2.5GB. It’s not shot in ProRes
@@Thetechchap Oh, alright.
Coming from the iPhone 11 Pro max. Got my iPhone 14 pro max on release. It was 100% worth the upgrade. It’s the most solid and high quality phone I have ever held. Since maybe the iPhone 4. I love the box like frame. I hated for so many years having that rounded cylinder shape phone. I slung my iPhone 6 Plus down a stone hallway because there was nothing to hold on to. Just from pulling it out of my pocket. That was the last iPhone I had for 4 years or so.
The feel the size the volume on videos (almost too loud)
A 13 with iOS 16 maybe not be worth the upgrade. But instead of listening to people on the internet.
Why don’t you decide for yourselves. Phones these days hold their value and cell like crazy. There are a lot of people that can’t get contracts, or afford the 120$ monthly bill. So they buy phones put right. But the phones are also 1-1,3k$. Still expensive! So they buy used ones. If you can afford the upgrade and don’t mind the bill. Upgrade then and sell your 12-13 iPhones. Everyone wins.
I really love the quality of the images and video on this iPhone. For someone who has always bought and used android phones, is it difficult to transition to an iPhone? I am willing to buy this phone as I don't think the quality of the images and videos can be matched with any android phone I've researched thus far.
Very nice content as usually, shame to see that we still have green flares so much visible during night time video recording, this is only one think which annoys me on my 13 pro max..it can easily destroy a shot..
Casetify cases are very expensive for a phone. There are many more cases that are not expensive and are very good to save iPhone. But well everyone spends their money as they want. 😄😄
