iPhone 14 Pro or iPhone 14 Pro Max?
pro
Not worth buying, eSim is a killer
Pro max 💪🏽 not gonna buy tho 😂
morbius
14 pro max
I went from the 8 to the 14 Pro. It’s fun to upgrade every 5 or so years because you really get a new experience and see tech updated
That’s pretty much what I do. When you upgrade once every 4-5 years, you alway have the experience of major upgrades, not minor.
I agree!! I went from 7 to the 14 pro and I’m enjoying it immensely!
I went from 8 plus to 12 and this is enough for what I will ever need in a phone
Own 8plus, let’s see where it goes 🥺
@@jonfreeman9682 how much is subscription plan?
I upgraded from a cup and string to a 14 pro max, such a huge improvement!
most underrated comment
I upgraded from a stick to an Iphone 14 pro max, truly amazing.
good one lmao
Lol
But you can't chunk your phone at someone anymore (or accidentally -- or purposely -- choke someone in between). Or play limbo.
I’d say 3 generation between is fair & worth it if selling your good condition used 1 or keep as a worthy backup. I think a lot of people on the upgrade program like my friends just opt for the top models because they don’t look at owner cost but just a monthly pay & move onto another. So yes, more of the spec’s out models out there. I buy the model I wanna keep for 3-5 yrs. I’m ok investing the extra to enjoy it longer
iPhone 7-10 Lcd to full oled 60hz iPhoneX-13pro 60hz to 120hz oled yeah 3 gen gaps probably the sweet spot for me too.
I went from a 6s to a XS to a 13 pro max. I like the massive improvements when you get a new one every 3 years or so
I did the exact same thing… except skipping the middle step lmao
I’m still using a 6 plus, still debating on upgrading to 14
Just a gimmick to me
@@garluns do it mate i genuinely don't know how you're even still using a 6 plus, they're unsupported and don't get iOS updates beyond urgent security patches
And that's the problem. The market is already saturated. And if you use the smartphone like most people do... you ain't gonna know the difference between a current one or one of 2 generations ago. Are you really gonna use the fact that it's a little bit faster, has a little more gadgets and a little more storage? I mean.... na, you then are gonna upgrade only when it's necessary. Meaning either when your phone breaks, it doesn't do anymore what you want to do or you find out that the apps you need can't update anymore and are not usable anymore.
My rule of thumb is to skip two to three generations so that you can see the significance on upgrading to a new phone. I went from a note 4 to s9 and s9 to s21 plus
Yep, I had the s20 and switched to the 14 pro max, T-Mobile gave me $800 so I said why not lol
whats an android user like u doing on this vid man
@@lucatiu1608 really bro? So android users can't watch iPhone vids? Grow up
The problem is that if you preorder on Samsung each year, you get a brand new top of the line phone each year for a couple of hundred dollars. If you hold the phone for 3 years, it has no trade in value.
@@lucatiu1608 I have a 13pro and watch Samsung vids,stop being embarrassing
To see max brightness without going outside, shine the flashlight of another phone into the front camera (Dynamic Island area). Also, the white point of the OLED display on the iPhone 14 Pro Max is slightly warm (yes, with Night Shift off). Photographers and artists might notice this when compared to an LCD screen. To fix this, open Settings, go to Accessibility then Display & Text Size and then Color Filters. Turn Filters On and select Color Tint. Set intensity to the far left, and Hue (scroll down to find it) 3/4 of the way to the right. You can shift it a bit left and right to make whites cooler or warmer.
I went from the 7+ to the 14 this Christmas and I’m too scared to take it out the box without a case on it 😂
Me too. I have the 7+ as well, and just got the iPhone 14 plus in the mail like 3 days ago. I opened it and turned it on and charged it but that's it. Put in the box and I'm waiting for my case and glass screen protectors to come in before I begin using it 🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂 I’ll probably be the same when mine arrives tomorrow 😅
Lmao you’ll be good, these newer phones are invincible for real
I bought a $79AU silicone case from Apple. I was skeptical in the beginning as I was used to using the chunky Lifeproof and Otter boxes; but after using this flimsy and what appeared to be a weak case I’m impressed. The ergonomically design is extremely well thought out. I’ve had it dropped, thrown, stood on and not a single bit of damage to the phone at all. I highly recommend them. It’s made by Otter, which I didn’t realise at the beginning. After putting it through torture I wanted to know what brand it was.
me too, i went from 7+ to 14+, these phones are such good quality
I went from an Iphone SE 2020 to a 14 pro. And its such a big improvement definitely worth the upgrade because the battery life is so great. When i would come back from school my old phone would have at least 12% left. With this new phone I come back home and the battery still has 68%. I only upgraded to the latest because I’m not going to upgrade for a while.
Yeah
The 14 Pro is such a great Phone, expensive but the quality is worth it.
@@sumajdionis9688 iPhone 11 still good?
More than likely because the phone is new and has yet to be overcharged throughout the night, which most people do.
I mean what upgrade are people getting from 14 with still 13 in the market at a lower price. You cant even differentiate the looks. The logical choice would be to go for 13
I don't know if that's true but a youtuber tested 5g speed and it is twice as fast on the 14 than on the 13. Couldn't find other test so I am not sure that's true but if that is I'll defintely go with the 14
As you said, logical choice...let's be real here, fan boys and girls will always be as sheeps 🐑 without a logical behaviour. "Go and buy whatever we throw at you no matter the little changes we have made." And people still fall for it.
2 more GB ram. Large photo sensor for low light. An improved 5g antenna/modem. One extra GPU core. Slightly larger battery, Bluetooth 5.3 etc. As someone with an iPhone 11 ($220 trade in) my question is $479 usd for an iPhone 13 (very good phone that will last a good 3 years likely) or an iPhone 14 with the above stated improvements for $579. Everyone phone for me regardless is an upgrade and it’s hard to willingly want to spend $779 on the pro when I can get a similar experience for me on a 14. (I’ve had iPhones since the 5s and the 120 refresh isn’t that big to me as I’ve never had it and I’ve still seen vast improvements over the years, dynamic island is cute but not that big a deal for me, I won’t have to wait for the pros to restock, and the 14 in the grand scheme is a very good phone since people said the 13 was good too. Just minor upgrades from 13 to 14. But for older users there’s a real question.
Prob more for people who go hiking, road trips and outdoor activities. With all the safety features. And people who like apples camera. But yeah 14 is pretty much reuse recycle old parts lol
The camera. I just switched from a Note 20 ultra to a 13PM and I’m honestly pretty disappointed in this 13PM camera. The low light performance, zoom, wide angle and video stabilization is embarrassing to post to my social media compared to my 2 year old Samsung. I was planning on keeping this 13PM till the 15 came out with hopefully USB C but I can’t stand this camera. Might jump on the 14PM just for the upgrade but I feel like it’s still going to be subpar camera quality compared to what I’m used to with Samsung flagships
Went from iPhone 6s to iPhone 14 pro, definitely a huge big difference and loving every single bit of it
I move from 6S in 2019 to just 11 and wondering to get 14 Pro, on daily basis I don’t do some huge business or trading, but Iove to have the better version. To be honest if 6S had a good battery I would be with it to the moment 😅
I went from a iPhone 6s plus to a iPhone 14 pro max we look a similar upgrade.
Npc
I dont like waiting a few gens because whenever I pay off my phone I end up paying even more.
6S 😮
I went from a 7 to 11 then to a 13 I’m probably gonna wait til the 15 or 16 to actually see the full potential of this dynamic island. Actually excited about it!
What’s your I phone 13 like? Just ordered mine did not want to go for the I phone 14
That’s crazy cause why I go the same path as iPhones as you. 😂
I went from iPhone 11 Pro to iPhone 14 Pro. I think it was one of the best decisions. Especially because of the camera quality. If you love taking pictures it really makes sense to buy it
going from the XS to the 14 pro max. very excited to see the new upgrades and features
What if - hear me out - they wanted it exactly that way? They spend basically no money developing the 14 but a lot more for the Pro - and they’ll still make shitloads more profit of the pro anyway. I think this was very calculated
It’s Apple so you are right, they definitely have a plan!
of course. This is obvious
Exactly they wanted to push everyone to the pros
Yes Infact it is a very calculated move
Good point
Yes!!! This is one video which helped my decision in doing this exactly: skipping the 14 to go 14 Pro Max!! And I absolutely love this one!! I haven’t loved an iPhone in such a long time, not this long since the iPhone 4S. Awesome video!!
My suggestions to Lew is: - do the drop test of these phones using the later case. Those cases are slim and sleek for the phones like Iphone, people use bulkier case inorder to protect them phones. On the first thought, they might wanna use slim case but on second thought they want to save their phones and rely on cases. Drop test using later case might clear out the thoughts of people. Just an opinion. 👍
I Second this
Then look up a drop test with these ultra slim cases. Lews cases are nothing different from similar styles. If someone wanted protection they would get a case that would protect, not ultra slim.
I’ve had his cases on my 12 Pro since launch in 2020… I’ve dropped my phone numerous times, often on concrete, and my phone has never once taken damage. The cases however do get some considerable scuffs where they make impact
Here in British Columbia 99% of the pro and pro max models have been sold out and everyone who is interested in buying them will have to wait for at least a month, as far as the 14 is concerned it is available at almost all of the stores and the 14 plus is also gonna be available at most locations from the 7th of October
i went from the 7+ to an 11 and im upgrading to a 14 pro, im excited to see the dynamic island and the screen difference
The video quality is great, the setting is amazing, love to see you videos because of this.
The issue is really the insidious way prices have crept up each release. Of course there is inflation and R&D for new technologies- but all phones really now have small, incremental changes. Changes usually to the camera. They have reached a plateau in design with regards to function.
You won a prize message me right away 🏆
@@Max_G43 I always do.😂
@xxx another one?!?!- how lucky am I?. 😏
I haven’t really noticed a price increase since the iPhone 11 series. With every release, they keep the same base price and then knock off $100 on the older series.
@@richgl31 Hey Richgl31! You won a PRIZE... WOW!!!! Message me for details!!
I personally went from a 12 pro max to a 14 pro max deep purple and I am loving the new color as well as dynamic island. I though I would dislike it but I actually like it now. It’s a neat feature.
Man, I have the 12 pro max currently as well. Hella considering 14 pro max deep purple. Is it worth it??
@@al3st0r If your phone is still running great with minimal battery wear,then keep it and wait for the 15.
Imma do the same but until the 15 pro max comes by! For now I’ll just keep ending my 12 pro max , that I just got less than a year .
@@al3st0r I would personally recommend you wait and upgrade when the iPhone 15 series is released. The iPhone 12 series are already very powerful phones. I’m only upgrading because my cousin wants an iPhone and I’m selling him mine.
@@isaiasbatista100 I personally love my 12 pro max and would never upgrade but a family member in Mexico wants an iPhone but they are too expensive over there. I’m selling him mine.
I have a 7 and currently ordered the 14 I am auctally excited!
Hope you don't use verizon, it drop calls and buffers on 4G and 5G won't pick up
I went from XS 256gb (2 times changing battery) to 14 pro ! It is a huge different especially the display and performance 👍
HELLO FAN👋 THANK YOU FOR REACHING OUT AND WATCHING MY VIDEOS INBOX ME ON TELEGRAM TO GET A PACKAGE🎁...
I have the same phone. Xs. I got 4 years out of my battery… it literally just came up for service last month. After 3 years battery was still 89 or 87% ?? good. The trick is to not over charge it. It blows me away Apple doesn’t have a “stop charging at X percent” like a Tesla. Keep it between 40-80% charge at the batteries last a long time. Becomes a habit granted it’s a pain to manage some days.
I got my XS 4years . It was time to change . In this 4 years I changed one Battery.
The problem with that case is it doesn’t really protect the front lip of the screen. I like the concept of protecting the camera and camera lenses, but for me the screen is more important. If those edges aren’t protected and it hits just right you’re done. It’ll be much harder to break the camera area, even in a standard case, in my opinion. Im rolling with an Otterbox Symmetry for now, but I like the concept of the Latercase. Looks like they’re only in pre order atm.
Screen protector on any case ……… probably would help -_-
Also I’ve had no case on my phone for a full year and dropped plenty of times with just a screen protector my phone is basically mint so…
Try the Otterbox Defender XT Series and thank me later. I dropped my XS Max in a Symmetry from three feet and cracked the screen since it landed flat and the case’s edges don’t come up high enough. The Defebder XT has kept my 12 Pro Max pristine in spite of the abuse I’ve given it.
@@2TMaskeraide the screen protector doesnt protect the edges that well -_-
I only buy Otterbox cases
Just upgraded from a note 9 that Ive had pre-ordered it since 2018. I'm glad I held out on the note 10, 20, 21 and waited to buy the 22 ultra. 4 years is a solid transitioning point. However worried by planned absolence with the battery and Os designed to ruin your older phones.
Great content love it keep up the good work
It’s incredible that they don’t give you a charger when you buy the $1000 phone
Samsung and Apple prefer to go green and not provide it. So that you can go out and buy it separately and create more trash.
me no care. I apple user. When battery run out, I buy new phone
@@paulinoatif1272 I just take out my SIM card and put it on my other one it’s brilliant
Sony Samsung also not provide charger, why just blame on apple?
A 50 thousand dollar car doesn't come with a full tank of gas
Just got the 14 a week ago. My old Samsung started to die and planned on getting the iPhone 13 but walked in the store and found out the 14 was the same monthly price so I got it. Watching videos I see why it’s not the best upgrade if you have a 13 but I really enjoy it as my first iPhone ever
Say no more, I'm making the exact same switch
you became clown
Sure it awesome phone! Good for another 3,4 years. Enjoy it my man🙌
The 14 pro could’ve been a better upgrade for just 200 more.
I tried to switch from Samsung to iPhone when the 12 came out because I just loved the design. I couldn't stand it for more than a couple of months. Ios was just too different, I couldn't get used to it. No haptic feedback while typing. No always on display. 2021 was an expensive year. I'm glad you're enjoying it though.
I’m always one to get a flagship device anyways, as a user of the 8 plus 256gb this phone has lasted me 5 years now and is definetly worth my praise. Now my friend bought an xr for cheap and has had non stop problems with it, running out of space etc. the way I see it, it’s expensive anyways, and if you’re buying a long term device might as well buy the best one you can and no need to worry about upgrading for a long while. Just my take
So why Apple? The portion package is either too small or overpriced. Might as well go for a chinese android. Theyre loaded. And performance is supreme
I think the iPhone 8 is currently the most used iPhone globaly 🤷🏾 iPhones are made to last because most people don't really upgrade for years.
8 plus is better than xr anyway except for bezels and processor
The 14 won’t last any longer than the 13
I definitely agree. I was from a Samsung S7. I needed an upgrade, i went to the S22 ultra 512 gb. Since I'll be using it for atleast 5-6years, why not just get the flagship with the highest storage (1Tb version not available in my region) available.
Hey sir , I always do watch your videos I do appreciate it it’s informative and very useful .. I’m using iPhone 12 64GB since this May 2022 now battery health 98% it was so efficient and good until I updated ios 15.7 and 16 .. my battery is getting drained so quickly and I can’t imagine about upgrading it because it’s like really new and I borough it from Apple Store uk where I paid 680 pounds 4 months before .. ! I’ve issues some tight budget .. so does it worth it to sell and upgrade to 13/14 or just keep it for an extra year then Upgrade.. this has still official apple warranty .. but one technician from Apple Store he said my battery is okay but I don’t know what’s wrong it’s drained too much and not giving me any satisfactory or efficient service like before .. Need your honest review. Thanks By the way I don’t have any budget for upgrade to any pro models !
The size difference for me is definitely always been a factor and something I overlooked this year, because I didn’t do enough research on the differences between the pro and pro max model. Started with 4S, then 6S, then 8+, then 11, and finally 14 Pro max. I gotta say the 8+ was the best feeling iPhone i ever used. And the fingerprint button on the iPhone 8 was so nice to me. Guess Imma have to wait and see how this 14 pro max holds up.
Just came from a 8 which is basically what the se is now but with the upgraded chip I’m glad to say I just got a 13 and I’m not going to upgrade for another three years atleast maybe four
I watched so many iPhone 14/pro reviews. But this is the honest and best review that gives audience what to choose.
Followed your recommendation with Latercase + Tempered Glass combo and when asked what led me to buy this I checked "Unbox Theory" 🖖
Went from the 11 Pro Max to the new 14 Pro Max and I really do see a difference. Biggest upgrade for me was the camera and also being able to shoot in RAW. Also the screen refresh rate is a noticeable improvement.
That’s the issue I have with my 11 pro max. I notice a difference in quality in the camera from others. I would bet the screen refresh rate would be a bonus too.
Thats exactly thing that is making me doubt between the iPhone 14 pro max and ghe Samsung s22 Ultra. I have the 11 pro max right now. The thing is i’m in doubt wether i will see the change enough. (Battery life is just not enough, storage space is filled up to the brim and my screen has too much scratches(next one is gonna get a screen protector))
I did the same thing
My motto is to upgrade every 3 years. I am currently on 11 Pro Max, and plan to upgrade to the 14th Pro Max real soon. You don't see big difference between consecutive years, but over multiple years, you should see some new improvements and features that makes it worth the upgrade. Of course if you're loaded with Money then buy every single new model that comes out.
same
I also got the iphone 11 pro max and it's still fast so i'm gonna till it's dead, hopefully it still works when the iphone 20 comes out
I’m also on the 11 pro max but I have a gut feeling the 15 is going to be a big jump from 14 and 15 designs. If I were you I’d just wait one more year, save that money and get a big upgrade when the 15 comes out !
@@Fadeddbblack I already got the 14 Pro Max, and so far I'm loving it. The screen is bigger, brighter, the battery lasts way longer, the speakers are amazing, the speed is great with the A16 bionic chip. Obviously the 15 is gonna be better, but, I'm just gonna enjoy the 14 pro max. And hey, if the 15 is significantly better to the point where its revolutionary, then I'll definitely upgrade to 15, if not, then I'm sticking to my same mantra, and I'll upgrade next to the 17th. iPhones are better in the sense that they last longer than Androids.
have an iphone xr and am really wanting to upgrade to the 14 pro max...i agree waiting multiple years will really give you that wow factor to show how much technology has upgraded
Thank you for your great review🥰🥰🥰 cant wait to buy an iphone soon if theres a chance 🥰🥰🥰 Keep on giving us a knowledge about iphones. ❤️ Thank you❤️
Lew is very inclusive with his fist bumps. Poor Willy Doo almost got left on read
I upgraded from the iPhone 12 to the iPhone 14 Pro Max and the Dynamic Island is probably my favorite feature. It is so seamless and well integrated. Unlike the notch, there was no learning curve because its so natural. It is true that in direct sunlight you can see the the IR scanner and camera but indoors it is unnoticeable.
how long have you had the 12? because i got mine about 1 year and a half ago
It also wasn't any learning curve cause you bought a slightly upgraded version of the phone you already owned. Not hating, I actually like the iPhone 14 Pro/Pro Max, but upgrading so often is just wasteful.
@@Humble_808 Agreed, Apple needs more competition, they need a wake up call to actually innovate more, yes the phone has a great design and screen that doesn't need to be changed but companies can definitely put way better tech in their phones that their saving for more profit, although the screen, chipset & materials used to make the phone are all great lots of physical features are missing, the display admittedly has a high Brightness cap but it obviously isn't the best out there, the phone isn't top notch but good enough for an upgrade over older models so people buy it, although experimental Apple could probably figure out a way to put the cameras and sensors under the display so there's no notch, there's no USB type-c port which although isn't needed it'd be a nice upgrade, the USB version is still 2. Overall, the phone could obviously be better by including many more instrumental features.
I have an iPhone 12 Pro Max and don’t see the point why I should buy the 14 series and confirm their shitty strategy
dont like the dynamic island, it will be annoying after long use haha looks like assistive touch that u cannot disabled... annoying oblong touch of the screen when u playing or watching movies , haha
Went from using Android all my life to an iPhone last week whilst traveling in Japan (iPhones there are at $175+ cheaper). Unfortunately the Pro models were sold out but I had the opportunity to get the last regular 14 model they had in stock before catching my flight. I’ll still consider it a W :)
Welcome to the club it might feel a little bit “dumbed down” compared to an android but I think it’s a lot more friendly and supported
How are you finding it? I switch between android and iOS each year. For most of the year though I’ll be on the iPhone.
@@WindEntityColin I agree, I have had iOS all my life until 2019, but now I use a note 20, and android has a lot more "fun" stuff, but its not anywhere as easy and simple
The forced camera shutter sound didn’t deter you from buying a Japanese model? Ordered mine from Hong Kong and got it shipped to me here in Japan - physical dual sim and eSIM is awesome!
@@DanielandYuka the fact you can’t turn this sound off by default baffles me. Not sure what Apple was thinking with this one. You can of course toggle the switch on the side of the phone to mute sounds, but this is a bit annoying. If you turn on Live Photos by default it’ll also mute the shutter sound: Settings > Camera > Preserve Settings and turn on Live Photo.
I went from a 6s to 14 pro. Serious improvement right there. Set me back a little bit though. 🤷🏿♂️
Man that studio ceiling looks like it is right on top of your head with the camera angle and lighting.
got the 14 pro max coming from the regular 11. Wanted a change of size to feel like it was actually a new phone. I had the 8 plus prior so i knew I was fine with the physical size, ill probably get the 17 pro standard size next. 3 years seems reasonable to have a phone in this day and age.
Upgraded from an iPhone 11 Pro Max to the iPhone 14 Pro Max and I already have noticed a significant improvement in battery life and the screen brightness.
Got my wife the Pro Max, that dynamic island / camera hole is the absolute worst when watching any videos, taking photos, or even using the device. It's terribly distracting and I do not want to even start on the trash customer service on getting a refund. We are done, last iPhone ever, 2022.
I have officially been upgraded towards the iPhone 14 Pro as my main driver now, the usage is very unique and battery wise is excellent as well and definitely an huge upgrade and new experience of usage
You are just a sheep.
Yeah sure, if you upgraded from iphone 6 or 7. anyone above X don’t need it tho
@@Erg893 nah its miles better than the X.
@@Erg893 Iphone 14 pro max is just a copycat of nothing phone 1🎉
Honestly their whole "non-pro" phone line up business model was failing because most of the people prefer buying the non pro iPhone for a bit less money because they wont truly sacrifice much and getting the same spec, similar looking model at a lower price point. The iPhone 14 is just there to take the hit and to boost sales of the Pro models and make Apple more profit.
You wouldn’t buy a 14 because last years model is better at nearly everything and cheaper
@@andreaskvisler Isn’t that usually every year tho? Of course not when they redesign the whole thing. We seem to forget apple would release the “s” “se” versions as the new iphone instead of a whole generation number if i’m not mistaken

1:51, incorrect, the notch shrunk for the 13 model. The X, XS, 11 and 12 models all had the same notch. It was smaller for the 13 and 14 (which also had no speaker integrated in the notch, but is now just between the glass and body)
I love your content so much and I like your approach towards this comparison of the iPhone 14 series . Can you please do a versus series with the 13 pro and tell us which is a better buy . . In terms of everyday use . Thanks 🙏
⬆️Hi, kindly shear a screenshot of the message you received on KZhead, via your KZhead comment box. Thank you!
I am not an Apple user, so this may be biased, but I think their non-pro phones are just so dissapointing. First, the regular 13 was stuck at 60hz, only had 2 cameras, and overall had nothing interesting. The regular 14 is the same thing, stuck at 60hz, only 2 cameras, regular notch... I have to admit that the 14 Pro looks really cool though, I am convinced they only made the regular 14 to make the Pro look better
I still think it's kind of funny how my Pixel 4 (a phone from 2019) has a display that refreshes faster than the base model of the new iPhone. In smooth mode the display runs at 90hz at the cost of battery.
I went from 8 plus to 13. Should’ve went for the pro. Now I’m thinking of getting an android. iPhones gets tiring after sometime
@@ctwilli0950 I hear the 60 hz on the iphone is as smooth as the 90 hz on android. But I agree that it's disappointing they still only have 60 hz after so long (there were rumours that the 14 would get a 90 hz, but alas it did not come to be). It could mean that maybe the average consumer just doesn't care that much -- or maybe it's other reasons like battery (apple does seem like they care a lot about battery and efficiency/optimization).
Its called "pro motion" for a reason :)
@@Veronicz They have nice animations. But hertz is a hardware limitation. Your screen just isn't gonna refresh fast enough. So no matter how good the optimization it'd going to feel stuttery compared to a higher refresh rate display
I went from a 7 to a 13 pro max, only because it was my 3rd iPhone 7 and it stopped charging. Love the bigger screen and cameras, plus it’s a lot more fun waiting a while and then getting the newest one after 4+ years
Went from iphone XS Max to iPhone 14 and I couldn’t be happier see a lot of improvements especially loud speaker wise
I still have the 8+. Works great still after 5/6 years and the screen size isn't far off. And this thing can shoot 4K!
Us bro
i bought a 14 pro the other day (currently waiting for it to be delivered) and im excited for it, the dynamic island feature seems pretty cool, can't wait for it to get delivered
I went from carrier pigeon to iPhone 14 Pro Max and really enjoying the massive improvements.
This guy makes some seriously good stuff. I was so immersed in the video. 1:40 really caught my attention.
Could be a strategic move for people buy higher end models caused why make it look and feel like the last version at that price point and it seem to be working
I think the regular 14 move is more based on the chip shortages is why. They just pop in last years chips into these.
It’s been years, and I still cant get over this gorgeous studio haha
Have a X. Waiting for 15 to upgrade. Got at new glass back put on my x, new oleophobic coating applied, new thin red case, new battery . Looks and feels new. It’s a great design. X is one of the best iPhones ever made. Top tier phone. It cost $1000 back in 2017. Getting my money’s worth out of it
I’m upgrading from a iPhone 8 that I’ve had for about four years to the 14 pro. I think it’s a good upgrade
Bro at the Steelers game this weekend my phone was at 1/2 brightness and was more than enough. I can say FOR sure in the right environment it’s amazing. Also. Indoors it’s not much of difference from my 12 but I think hdr matters as well. TikTok isn’t giving me that so. It’s at its regular brightness.
No one should use Tik tok
I have a 12, is it worth getting the 14 pro or pro max?
@@cameronhilsenteger3877 for sure. The 120 is amazing. Way brighter. Macros back. It’s worthwhile. Let me know if you like it!!
@@willbennett8799 I’m so sorry…
I went from an iPhone 12 regular to a iPhone 14 Pro I can definitely say that this phone is way faster and has more features. And first time having a phone like this (pro wise) is pretty dang cool. Camera is completely better on the 14 pro.
your ceiling is crazy cool 🤘
I upgraded to a iphone 14 pro max because my iPhone 11 was getting kinda eh on battery life. This thing lasts me all day and then some. Also love the upgraded 120hz, as well as brighter, display
Same. Although my 11 had an issue with the mic and true depth camera. Would have cost me $550 to fix. It was literally cheaper to upgrade. On a Verizon payment plan of course. Hey $200-300 for new is better than $550 on an old one
i'll get my ip14 pro max next week. is it that good? Hows the battery performance n charging time?
13 pro has the same features, just no island
The 2000 nits it’s a game changer for sure. I just wanted a 2TB storage
Why not just change the battery?
I agree with a few things you talked about. I recently bought a iPhone 13 Pro max (AlpineGreen) had it for 4 months. Got a OtterBox Clear case. And I absolutely LOVE IT. Coming from a 6s+ I really don’t need a 14. I feel like the Island may become annoying after awhile. Just another distraction for me.
Great review. But I have a question, anyone can answer I guess. Say I wasn’t upgrading my iPhone, but buying my first one. Can I start with 14 or should I spend some extra and get the Pro version? Not looking at the Max one, it’s way too big for me.
if price is not your concern then there is no reason for you to get the regular 14 and just get the smaller pro one
Yeah agreed I work in retail for apple and I would suggest the pro 14 due to the fact that this platform will be the new building block for future models including the 15 it is just how apples trajectory goes and the numbers show
Coming from a XR too 14 Pro in that purple ! Excited
Just got the iPhone 13 mini. As a casual user I think the mini form factor is perfect. I have zero use for a massive device. I really hope they bring back the mini versions in future upgrades
If enough people talk about it I don’t doubt it or maybe the SE series will become the mini
Fully agree. I got my 13 mini in May and plan to keep it for as long as humanly possible.
Skipping the 14 completely as I need the sim tray and have a 13PM. I agree that for the couple of hundred, the Pro models make much more sense.
In Europe they have sim tray
Ngl I think they did it purpose so that people who want to upgrade would go for the 13 as it is only minimal upgrade for the 14. It's smart strategy and will probably do it to the 15 later on.
@@Czyb20 if that was the case then why world bring the 14 even 13 pro max got discontinued and will lose to apple if people didn't buy 14
You’ll have to skip the iPhone 15 and beyond then because Apple isn’t gonna bring the sim tray back.
I don't care about the sim tray since I never really changed any sim cards out of it, so I'm perfectly fine with apple removing it
I went from a 13 pro max to a 14 pro max love seeing tech updates amazing
Most YTs says it’s not worth the upgrade but they’re missing the fact that not everyone has the 13 in hand or the 12 . So the upgrade sometimes is worth it .
Ip14 is not a bad phone yet with what you are getting with the pro models as what this video from Lew covered, it makes it an easy decision. Hoping to get my upgrade soon (from android to ios) 🙏. As always love your phone reviews, keep it commin!! 🔥
Ip14 is overpriced. 12 and 13 were pretty good value for money even compared to Android alternatives, but this "12SS" just does not cut it anymore - especially in EU where the price has been upped by some 15%.
Hope the 15 series or the upcoming series will be more improved and updated 👍👍👍👍
It probably will. Apple usually improves every 2 years.
Went from 11 pro to 14 pro max. Love it and definitely happy with the updgrade. I’ll probably upgrade again in about 3 years
HELLO FAN👋 THANK YOU FOR REACHING OUT AND WATCHING MY VIDEOS INBOX ME ON TELEGRAM TO GET A PACKAGE🎁...
Is there much difference? I have the X and I’m thinking about doing the upgrade
@@StankyPack big difference, it’s so much better. Camera, screen quality are much better and the dynamic island is pretty cool
@@elew5142 probably going to switch when they’re back in stock here in Vegas
I straightly went from 6s to 13 pro max..those days were really long..now checking to see how good is 14 series and how many new ones r above my range😂.After using a small phone for years..I can’t get a hold of big phone😅
i wonder why the 13pro is nowhere to be found
I went from a iPhone 7 max to the new 13 pro max a few months ago. I love the upgrade its like night and day speed wise. Previous to that I had an iPhone 5s. Actually I still have my 5s and 7 max. They're hanging around on the top shelf of my closet collecting dust.
Dude, thats like going from a nokia 3310 to the first smartphone😂😂😂
@@subwoofermaniac it was a hell of a transition I must admit. Then I got a new MacBook a few months lateras well. I’m loaded for bear for the next 3 years.
Ultimately I held onto my 5s and 7 max for a long time before upgrading to the 13pro because I didn’t want to make the switch to “no home button” but my fears were subsided after realizing I didn’t need the home button after all.
6:54 I am really liking this deep purple color You really love that color, but you still prefer to put a protective case on, which cover more than 90% of the color casing area😅 I will pick a color I hate the most, so, I will feel better to put on that case. BTW, those lenses are huge, more and more like that old school cooktop.
get a protective clear case!
I went from a revvl 4 plus, to a iPhone 6 Plus, to a iPhone 11. Great jump from what I’m used to but I do plan on getting a 13 soon
I upgraded from sending messages in the mail to the iPhone 14 I can tell you it’s way faster to get in contact with people not to mention you don’t have to make the whole 4 week journey for a reply

Having a larger screen is compelling - especially when most people use their smartphones these days as their primary computing devices (at least for browsing the web, email and communication). However, I did regret the size and weight of the XS Max and will likely continue to forgo the larger device option moving forward (currently use the 12 Pro).
I guess this Dynamic Island thing is not bad kind of creative and fun animation as well my only problem is when you want to interact you have to reach up to the top of the screen for it all the time which is very inconvenient on this huge phones.
The animations are great, but yeah, that could be a bit annoying
I truly believe that this is a upgrade from the traditional smoke signal method . 100% I recommend it.
i’ve always used a plus model iphone and never had any problems with the size, i’m so used to the battery just lasting way more than i need, plus, i have never found it too big in my pocket even when mountain biking. But it’s way way nicer for typing, movies/ videos, games, and reading
I upgrade to iPhone 14 pro from 13 pro…. I want to experience dynamic island,always on display,and the space black is so cool my new fave color of iPhone even more youtubers said that not worth it..
I've watched a lot of reviews about this device, but this man always shows me something new about it, and i really love that
Totally agree
I went from the 7 to the 14 and even though I still love the 7, it's fun to finally see the new updates and stuff. The camera is unmatchable. I was thinking about getting a professional camera but it had half the amount of megapixels.
Had iPhone7 plus and the battery burst after 2 years. Replaced with another iPhone 7 as i paid to have the battery replaced at iPhone store. 2 years later that I phone started looping and finally died after 4 loop resets at store. Then I bought a used iPhone12 Pro Max. Still working OK. cost me $750 for it. The new ones were going for $1,400. So I think I overpaid. But someone else did the deal as a middle man and maybe I messed up. The phone is OK for my usage so far. Time will tell. I want to buy the iPhone Ultra. But it seems that model is dead now.
Megapixels dont equal good Camera
@@greenhold6280 true that. I like it way better than what I had before though. The camera quality is really nice.
Same here. I upgraded from a iPhone 8 to a 14 Pro Max. After this phone stops getting updates, I’m probs going to try a Samsung flagship or something. But Yh, waiting years for an upgrade is so good since you have more features that your looking forward to
Just got the 14 plus. Had 11 for two years. Gonna keep 14 for much longer hopefully
Your consistency and quality of content never disappoints!
got my 14 pro for the EXACT price as the 13 pro. the island is interesting but helpful and the quality for pretty much everything is incredible. been using it for 5 days and it’s a thumbs up from me
Hows the battery life and i have the 8 plus im tired of this big phone sometimes i cant wait to upgrade to the pro
So what exactly does this island do that is so groundbreaking?
@@mvally2714 very promising battery life, halfway through the day it’s often still near 70 - 60. with constant use, its down near 20 around 9 or 10!
@@jonfreeman9682 it offers a new feel for listening to music, recording audio and what not. it’s not a groundbreaking piece of technology but it does offer a new feel to the phone. it has very smooth movement aswell
7 plus to a 14 pro. You really see the upgrade, and have a great experience
I went from iPod shuffle gen1 to iPhone4 to IPhone 12. I enjoy the major improvements every 6 years or so
very seriously thinking of upgrading this year to the 14 pro or pro max (aren't decided yet). My iPhone X has started to show its age after 5 very good years, especially with its non AI camera.
Wait for iPhone 15 in a couple of months
Ordered a later case and screen protector for my 13pro. Thanks Lewis
I went to get a new phone and they were sold out of 14’s so I went with a 13 lol

I’ve been an iPhone fan since the first phone came out, and I usually upgrade every couple of years. Not this time, and probably not for a long time. They charge way to much for the same phone with minor changes. I’ve even been considering getting something else, but I’m in to deep with an iPhone pro max, Apple Watch, and iPad Pro.
As an android user that just switched to iPhone its a massive upgrade, don’t get me wrong androids are extremely customizable, but it was too much customization for me, iPhone feels more premium, simplistic, and overall better, so you aren’t missing out on much
@@juanescobedo3281 That’s good to know, ty, and welcome to the club. Glad you like your new iPhone. They are great phones, I love my 12 pro max, it’s one of my favorites so far. However, to me, shelling out $1,200 bucks to get the latest and greatest just doesn’t seem worth it anymore. That’s a lot of money for minor changes. It seems like the other cell phone manufacturers are at least trying to create something different like the z-fold from Samsung, and it makes me wonder why Apple doesn’t do anything different like that. We need Steve Jobs back.
I definitely don’t switch until I see some real changes. I went from 4 to 6 to X to 11 pro and now most definitely getting the 14 pro. All different looking iPhones.
I got the pro max because I had the 11 for 3 years and it was paid off and I was happy to have another payment. I never got the big model iPhones because I didn’t see a need. But this one I saw the need for me because this is the only camera that I will ever have in my pocket so I decided to go with the bigger phone and the bigger camera. With having the dynamic island it’s really useful to me I use it all the time. So far I am loving this phone and a friend of mine. Just got her 14 promax. this is the first iPhone that I have gotten that was the premium model so to speak. I have gone with the cheaper models in the past but this time I did not want to miss out on getting a bigger phone.
I'm still using the iPhone 6+ so it's definitely time to get an upgrade. The big boi Pro Max looks fantastic!
I went from a 6 plus to the XR to the 13 pro max the transition was beautiful nice upgrades and improvements
HELLO FAN👋 THANK YOU FOR REACHING OUT AND WATCHING MY VIDEOS INBOX ME ON TELEGRAM TO GET A PACKAGE🎁...
I myself personally went from an iPhone 4s to a 14 pro max. Great tech improvements 👍
From a 6s plus to a 14 pro max
Jesus Christ! I didn’t even know the 4s still functioned. That was my very first iPhone.
LOL. YOU WIN!!
