The biggest downside of the new iPhones is the pricing in Europe. I mean the normal 14/plus cost 999€/1149€ and the Pro/Max cost 1299/1449€ which is about a 200€ bump from last year across the whole lineup. Thats gonna make the iPhones sell even less in Europe as we already have significant price bumps in every day life such as electricity, gas and so on. Im really mad at Apple that they didn't say that in the event, because i was so glad that the price stayed at 999/1099$ but seems it didn't account for Europe.

It honestly makes more sense to keep an iPhone model for about two to three years then finally upgrade it rather than upgrading annually.

I love how this guy explains things with complete rationality and objectivity. This gives reliable insights to consumers without much knowledge with technicalities of such stuff and everything he says makes a total sense. Keep it up!

I really like your take on what apple is doing. Basically, mom is frustrated with her phone all the time because she doesn't understand that she actually did need the super pro version to make it worth while. This makes her quit trying to be tech savvy and that leads to her being not tech savvy and that leads her to not understanding that she is getting ripped off by spending 800 instead of 1200 for what should be the same phone just a little smaller that fits her hand and pocket better.

Upgrading from the XR to the 14 Pro Max which for me is a huge upgrade and the dynamic island reminds me of the MacBook pro touch bar which is hopefully a sign that apple is still trying to keep features like this alive.

Excellent video as always! I have been researching a lot in the past few weeks as I want to buy my first iPhone after having used Android all my life, and I'm so indecisive about literally everything. I was thinking about getting the 14 because it still has a reasonable price, but this is making me consider whether it would be better to spend the extra £250 and get the 14Pro instead... I've never used iOS and I'm terrified I won't like it!

I love how Arun is brutally honest with everything he says. If companies try to hide something that us viewers tend to not spot out, the boss will know what's going on. This is why I am subscribed to you Arun. You're just amazing with everything you do and speak. Your content is on another level 🚀!!! 1hr 30min livestream condensed to a 12 mins video is just bonkers! Love the rick roll as well (classic). Looking forward to seeing you get your hands on this new iPhone 14 series, can't wait to see the camera and battery test. Thank you.

Apple have been doing the “features limiting” trick since Apple II computer. Just ask Woz, he had disagreements over that with Jobs almost from day one. Woz wanted to include every option possible and than some in Apple’s computers and Jobs wanted to include only what was necessary and than charge extra for the extra features. Tim Cook as Jobs’s disciple continues with this strategy even more. Also worth noting he is not an Apple’s visionary like Jobs was, but comes from supply chain management… so there’s that too (profit over form)

I like your passion and how you describe the iPhone attributes. I came from an android based phone and have been on an android phone ever since I got my first smart phone, the Galaxy 3 and beyond.
I chose the iPhone 14 over the Plus, Pro, and Pro Max. Why? Well, the new construction making the phone cheeper to repair and easier to take apart, the 6 Gb ram, the internal Heat Shield, the satellite SOS and crash detect SOS, but….. one of the biggest thing is the Apple support will continue for a very long time. The iOS seems, to a novice like me, to be very polished (once I got used to it 🤣) and if Apple still supports the iPhone 8, at the time that I write this, then I will be good to go for a long time. Regarding the camera, it takes photos and videos. It’s a camera, big deal. Yeah, I could have gone for the 13 but the iPhone 14 with 256 Gb is only $100 more for the above mentioned additional features. I ride a Harley in the mountains, the 14 potentially can save my life if I am involved accedent and it is just one of the reasons the 14 my choice. Yeah, I could have gone for the 13, 14 Pro or the 14 Max. I just don’t buy stuff that I don't use or want. The fact that I have choices is awesome.
I have learned a lot from your videos, keep up the good work. Thanks!

I like how he immediately got to the content. No unnecessary fluff, no unwanted small talk, just straight to business. I like it.

I got the 13 PM earlier this year due to me having Samsung since the S7 and I’ve enjoyed the change in scenery, but I do miss a lot of features my 21 ultra had that this 13 doesn’t. So this is reassuring my decision to go back when the 23 drops. I do like the 13 don’t get me wrong but there’s still a few gimmicks about the 13 that makes me regret me choice.

I do appreciate how Arun and his team try to elevate every video. I remember the simplicity of editing they are doing before he reached 1M and looking how dynamic these new videos he produce. Congrats man.

Arun's Excellence is unmatched! So much to learn from him. I celebrate your effort and sacrifice towards creating contents. You are not just raising the standard - you are the STANDARD! More grace to you!

I think it would only be logical for people to buy the pro models this year, not the base models. If they want the base model, they can go for the 13 which is almost the same as 14 which only has minor upgrades.
Also bummed about mini, I’ll be getting my 13 mini this Monday and super excited for it. I wish they would bring it back in the form of iPhone SE

I think making a different chip for pro's is a good marketing decision, mostly since people are already frowning at prices, so adding something included with the higher phone will be considered a good deal. Same with performance differences, I think that's how every phone should be. I see the iPhone 14's as a huge plus.

Arun brings a very high quality perspective to tech reviews...super content as always 👍🏻

Hey Arun, could you please test the iPhone 14‘s internet tethering abilities? On my 13 ProMax it only allowes 600 MByte of traffic via cable tethering (tested with at least five different SIM cards and eSIM of course). Apple is not willing to help here. I’d love it, if you could test this with Mac/Windows/Linux PCs. Being not able to run your own office on the go is a real pain in the ass.

Yep, I'm just going to hold onto my XS Max - still does everything I need! The iPhone events were once so exciting but we've hit a point where cool tech upgrades/ new designs can't be year after year. Should Apple release next gen iPhones 2 yearly instead? I think yes :)

I currently use an iPhone 12 Mini. I loved it at first as I did not want a huge phone in my pocket. However battery life has became an issue in recent time. I love. the idea of the 14 Pro just because of the dynamic island. Be it a feature or a gimmick looks cool. Shame I can not afford to upgrade when my contract ends.

Such crisp content, Arun; you nailed the powered-packed glance!
But, keeping all the fancy stuff aside and looking at the realistic environments, I believe iPhone Xs is still worth it -even after 4 yrs of use, and I hope it can function one more yr without any issues. But it wasn't the same scenario with iPhone6; the only good about six is the design aspects - that sold the most, but the hardware couldn't sustain the usage. But, then Xs has come with power-packed hardware (A14 Bionic,4GB RAM, and Apple GPU graphics), which could meet ongoing user needs and sustain. Of course, there are always new additions, but I hope the primary usage of mobile measures the actual value invested!

Really on point sir! As always, this is an awesome review pointing out the obvious, giving us significant heads up before we decide to crazily upgrade or switch to a new phone!

I don’t know if anyone else has ever said this (I’m sure they have) but Arun, you are a LIFE SAVER for people like me who work at a phone store. I loved your content at first bc I’m a nerd and like learning about tech, but once I began working in cell phone sales your break downs of the newest releases has helped me so much when customers ask for what separates the phones from each other.

My 14pro max has been good to me so far. Switched from android and it’s been an interesting change… but happy so far. Mainly battery life and camera has been what I am liking the most.

Not an iPhone user but you still make among the best content out there that covers all the bases! Good to know just how large (or incremental) the changes are, as well as that Pro vs regular option change. Obviously only so much you can improve on phones now and it's showing a bit. But still, definitely some nice things shown here as well as some quirks.

Honestly, I'm impressed with Apple for actually shaking up the notch, turning it into a feature and doing something we haven't seen before. I'm not an IPhone user but even still, I'm happy that Apple is doing something new. And with Apple becoming more competitive with the 14 series, it makes me very excited for what the S23 is going to do with things like the 200mp camera and the S-pen (hopefully they keep the S-pen). But the thing that I'm most excited for is the uniqueness that Samsung and Google are going to have to implement into OneUI and Android as a result of Apple's new notch. If Apple makes an ambitious change to their notch, think about the level of innovation that Android is going to either: support with third party apps, or integrate into Android itself. Imagine Android 14 with full customization of what you can do with hole punches and widgets that Android could either make themselves or give support to third party apps. I hope that Android gives support for something like this because of all of the companies that would jump at the opportunity to get their widget on your screen at all times. Not only does this breathe new life into how Android phones look, but the competition will make for the best user experience possible. The customers always benefit when there us competition

Great take. The thinking is always go for the odd numbered phones, I have a 13Pro and have zero interest in the 14, maybe the 15 by that time I'll have had my 13 pro for at least three years. I'm also not upgrading my iPhone till the legacy lightening port is ditched. Apple has some right ideas as in nobody is really upgrading "themselves" enough to require huge advances in tech each year - make calls yes, SNS, yes selfies yes, that's about it, may as well just tweak what people use to make it incrementally better. I think the real advance in cell phones will be phone makers building infrastructure such as Tesla and it's satellites. Living in London I have so many dead spots, trains, underground, my apartment or just next to tall buildings. Smart phones need smart networks even if it just means consumers can consume more and tech companies make more profit.

Lets take a moment and apperciate all the hard work they put into their content for us! Thanks for the videos. 1:00 loved this part.

Never liked the way Apple do stuff, but I have to admit that they're the greatest genius of all time: they can present the same things every year and everyone's still going to buying them.
I think that now the only really cool smartphone are the foldable, otherwise they're all quite similar...

I got a iphone 13 mini for the comfort and just how portable it is, but I decided to trade it in more recently because it wouldn't last me all day even if I did everything I could to make it last. It was an amazing phone and would still have it now if itd last longer

It’s amazing how they can make things look like they’re leaps and bounds better when they’re not. I’m quite happy with my 13 pro max. The saving grace for iPhones was a 120hz display. That’s it, that’s all the iPhone needed to feel amazing. Going to android then coming back to my iPhone always felt shitty because my iPhone at the time had a 60hz display and I was adjusted to the 120hz of my S21 Ultra. Once the 13 pro released in green, I had to have it. This will be my phone for a good long time. I doubt it will get sluggish anytime soon

I’m certain one of the big reasons the Mini didn’t make it was battery life. I know some people liking a smaller phone (and the SE is quite popular, which proves my point) and it was like an SE with full screen. But the battery life was arguably terrible. And my ex-wife picked up an SE instead.

I love your reviews! They're not splooging over how awesome Apple is and why like many other articles/vids I've seen. You come off as genuinely unbiased and PHEW!! Thank goodness!!
I just saw your other video comparing the S22 Ultra vs iPhone 14 Ultra Max Alpha Omega, whatever Apple calls their stuff. *sigh* My Galaxy S8+ just isn't working with things anymore (bought it in 2019 and still use it today) and found out that Android quietly stopped doing updates. Hence the crap way it's suddenly working...
Apple keeps doing updates for everyone, as far as I can read. I wanted to know if it was worth getting another Android vs Apple in this case and I've been bilking against getting Apple for YEARS because of the fanbase being so gross.
After watching this vid and the other one I mentioned, I may have to just grit my teeth and get that payment plan going. I legit use my phones until they refuse to work anymore. Same with my computers. I still have the same HP Omen 2080RTX I got in 2018 with little to few issues. I only got it because my Win 7 I built in 2011/12 got bricked with updates for Win 10. 🤣 I get the good stuff NOW and use it until it can't be used anymore. So, considering my average is $200/year for cellphones, this sounds like the best bet for what I'm looking for, even counting an extra $100 or so for inflation.

Always loved your reviews...your honest views on these types of products makes your videos more international to watch...❣️❤️

I love the way Arun critically broke down The Ugly when it came to the design part of the 14.

I upgraded from an XR (yes old but it was arguably the best budget iPhone ever made for its value and capabilities) and I tell you what. The iPhone 14 pro cameras have made me take more pictures this week than ever before. Even in the base setting of 12MP on the main camera it’s just so good sometimes it makes you laugh a little. Although the iPhone 14pro models aren’t what they could have been IMO they are what the iPhone 13 should have been from the start. I’m hoping this is apples way of perfecting the last design model so that they can release an all new design for 2023.

This channel is not just the epitome of tech youtube, but youtube in general. The information shared, endless creativity and top notch dedication really makes me feel guilty for watching this for free. Every video is fantastic, thank you Arun.

First of all thank you for you really informative, concise and beautifully created videos! I've been an iPhone user for almost 10 years, and I try to hold on to them for as long as possible, first because there is almost no point in upgrading every year, and second - yes, they are expensive.
What i want to know is why are people so upset that the design of iPhones in particular has basically remained the same for 10 years? Not only do 90% of people if not more keep their phones in cases that render their design almost meaningless, but you get used very quickly to pretty much whatever changes companies make. Furthermore today's phones are just very sleek looking rectangles, what more would you want from their design?
And for somebody who doesnt have enough time to follow Android smartphones and Samsungs in particular - how much are they improving on an annual basis (everybody bashes the iPhone for its incremental changes) and how much is their design changing?

Excellent review! The ugly bit is creepy on Apple's part but I'm sure they can pitch it in a way that says, Well, that's an interpretation of intention which neglects market reality (i.e. the regular user doesn't care). Convenient, no? 🙂

I just jumped from an IPhone XR to the iPhone 14 Pro Max in deep purple. I’m impressed how snappier it is, the quality feels more premium but honestly using it for what I do just feels the same.

It is also pretty impressive that these companies have been able to deliver the same price tag for improved everything over the past few years, also considering the current condition the world is in.

I totally agree with all the all the points except for THE UGLY.
I don't see the problem about having that gap between the pro versions and the standard versions. I spent almost 2000€ getting the Pro Max therefore I understand that there would be major differences if I have gotten the Plus. Would it be fair is a person that buys the Plus have gotten almost the same features spending half the money? Not quite! Why would anyone buy the Pro if they were the same?
Anyhow! love all your videos! they are so good and useful!❤

I have a feeling that many people will not use the always on display, due to it giving the impression that the display is not off, and as such, they might feel that their phone is always running even when they hit the power button. With other phones, the screen goes black, showing that the phone has turned off, and THEN a small image appears on screen, leaving the rest black. It is the same thing with e-ink displays, people feel much more comfortable when their screen displays all white ("off") instead of just whatever they last had on the screen, or something like a picture.

Love you r Videos! A Head to Head with the Vivo x80 Pro would be cool :) I was thinking about getting the 14 Pro Max (I use the 12 ProMax right now) but even with a 48MP camera I am not totally convinced to upgrade, might change if the reviews for the cameras are praising it :) the Vivo looked cool also and in MArc the x90 will probably come out.
Or going for a DSLR once again.....

Thanks for this wonder review and am also happy for the notch upgrade with better functions 👏.

Yeah, I definitely have a couple problems with this year‘s phones. But my biggest being them getting rid of the Sim card and switching to eSIM. Really just not a good idea. Anyone agree?

I’ve never been one to really take a side in the great divide between Apple & Samsung and what either can do better and what not, if I like the phone and it serves me well for what I need it for I’m happy.
I left apple because I was bored of the lack of making it more personalised. I went to the Samsung Galaxy Ultra Note 10 + and it was a fantastic phone for the 2 year I had it with no issues.
I upgraded to the iPhone 13 pro max and haven’t looked back it’s an unreal phone with a brilliant camera and camera quality. Even although I like the new 14 pro max I think I will possibly wait till next years release when things may just get that bit better plus iOS 16 coming is something to look forward to.

After a long long wait apple has now upgraded their 12 megapixel back camera to a staggering 48 megapixel and they also increased the screen resolution and brightness. I really waited this to happen for a long time.

Another issue that was glossed over is the fact that there is no physical sim tray. At least on the US models. So international travel now gets much more complicated. Many countries don't use esims and esim as a whole is no where near as quick and easy to set up as simply buying a disposable sim in the country that you're visiting and popping it in your phone. So now your options are buy an expensive international plan with your carrier or hope that the country you're visiting supports it.

Having the same form factor means they can produce or outsource so much more than they needed for the 13. Manufacturers usually lowers their price for bulkier orders. It saves them money

Finally, Apple now has given their iPhone 14 pro MAX a action mode which stabilizes the camera when taking action shots or shooting videos. This is what I need in my 13 pro.

My question about adaptive refresh rates is: When my screen is showing something static like an ebook page or something where the refresh rate has been decreased down to 1hz, and I suddenly swipe to the next page or basically do something that returns the refresh rate back to normal, will there be a bit of lag for a split second when the refresh rate returns to normal, or will it be instant and unrecognizable?

Your concepts of good, bad and ugly is very good and easily undestandable. Plus im impressed by your choice of words "They are only giving the modern good stuff to the people who are both aware that they want it and are willing to pay more for it."

I love how u can make the smallest and most insignificant, industry trailing upgrade (like always on display) sound so progressive, and exciting. Skill and critique reserved only for Iphone that mostly fall behind other phones on many aspect of their phones.

Having watched this multi-hour event live, this video covers everything you need to take away and more! Great job Arun! 👍

I wish iPhones were that cheap here in Canada. Basic iPhone 14 is 1099$ while the Pro is 1399$. I got the SE 14 months ago since I am not made out of money, I didn't know it's battery would be that bad though. I have been an iPhone user since the 3GS but what Apple is doing right now is making me consider switching to Android next year. Never thought I'd say that. Anyways, Arun, thank you so much for all the content you publish, it's always very insightful.

I love your videos. You usually talk about every aspect of a device. Nothing about the 60Hz display? It's crazy how all reviewers pointed it out on 6a but on iPhone it seems to be okay.

Me watching this today without skipping a second on my 14 pro 😂 Hands down Arun is the best creator on YT when it comes to phones

After watching the event, i decided to keep my iphone XR. According to me that's the best iPhone 😍
Let's wait for Apple to bring some good phones next year.

I am an iPhone user and have been since the iPhone 3G, I see more positives than negatives in this review and it’s actually been a few years since I upgraded so this will actually be a jump for me if I get the new phone

I agree whole heartedly with “The Ugly”
I told my brother to wait on getting us 13 pro max two months ago because the 14 was gonna come out. And that even if he didn’t want the 14, the 13 would be $100 less for basically the same thing (or similar enough things that he wouldn’t the upgrade for the extra price)

Arun's analysis is pretty much spot on. This wasn't a very exciting iPhone update. But that's OK, like he said, there is a chip shortage and other challenges facing the world right now. Maybe next year the iPhone 15 will blow our collective minds...

I like Apples down-to-earth approach to implementing new features. It’s just a shame that their marketing and especially their pricing policy are quite the opposite.
But as I only upgraded last year I won’t be buying another phone for at least the next two years, probably more like three or four years.
By then it might be worth the upgrade again.
There’s one thing that pisses me off though, and that’s not enabling the always-on-display on the 13 Pro models. It would probably suck a tiny little bit more battery on those devices, but it shouldn’t be a dealbreaker.
Theoretically they could enable it on any device with an OLED screen, all the way back to the iPhone X. It probably makes sense not to do that, but last year’s Pro models should definitely get this feature.

Upgraded from the X to the 14 Pro and it's been amazing so far

I really liked how they came up with the dynamic island concept but is anyone thinking about how it will look if it had a screen guard with a pill shaped hole to it and will the animations look the same like they showed 🤔🤔

I have the iPhone SE 2020. The battery isn’t a problem for me but it could be for extremely heavy users. I don’t usually use my phone from 8am to 4pm but after that i use it heavily and it usually has 30 percent when I’m going to bed

I'm stunned by how much intricate details you put in every single thing within the video and the video always turns out to be perfect. Also the consistency with which the videos are delivered at the perfect time is a huge thumbs up factor.

Upgraded to the 14 from the se 2020 and I’m really happy with my purchase. It’s a huge upgrade. Idk why this phone gets so much hate lol

So what I took from that is that I’m absolutely making the right decision to stick with my 13 Pro Max and avoid becoming a sheeple because there’s clearly almost no gain whatever. Excellent video as always 👌

I'm just gonna stick with android I just honestly prefer the app store on Android and a few other things but your review is definitely going to help people

Ahh bloody hell! I have the 14 Pro Max on pre-order, waiting to pay for it at 1pm TODAY! Now I've seen this, I really don't know if its worth waiting til next year instead. Although, my main desire is the camera, so I'm stuck between wanting and waiting! Cheers Aaron

Regarding the Mini, I was actually put off by the notch because it was the same size as on the Max. This made it proportionally much larger and took up too much of the screen. I hope when they get rid of intrusions completely, they bring back a Mini version. The fact that it is cheaper is, for me, irrelevant.

Arun is the expert on iPhones. He literally has the best reviews of tech on Clip-Share. Always waiting for your judgement each year on the newest iPhone.

Hi Arun! Let me say first up I love watching your content! Only suggestion I have is it seems like almost all your review videos are about a smartphone. Hardly ever about, let’s say a pair of flagship headphones or a new gaming laptop or a new console example Xbox Series X Pro if it comes out! Would love to see more videos like that like your video about every PlayStation! That was probably one of my favourite videos you’ve done :))

You addressed people like me at the end lol I’m here searching videos because my older iPhone battery is giving out and it’s time for me to upgrade today, I’ve been considering the new iPhone but didn’t know where to begin because the differences never seem to justify the cost. T-Mobile always offers me the basic iPhones, I’ll have to check out the Pro. Especially at that price point!

Absolutely right. People now think small phone means its cheap.

Thanks- You’re a Pro Max when it comes to genuine and high-quality tech news/reviews!

The thing that makes me most mad is the pricing… in Norway. It is literally 1549$ For the base 128gb iPhone 14 pro max and it literally goes up to 2219$ For the 1TB One, it is absolutely ridiculous how much more expensive they are here, but then again, it’s Europe and stuff so things are usually 30-40% more expensive here than in the US

As a cell phone salesman, 80% of the customers who come through my door come in because their iPhone 8-X has stopped working. They want the base model of the newest iPhone. Usually they ask "what iPhone are we on now?" They usually don't even bother asking about the price. To a very large majority of the US market, the iPhone is the only smartphone available, and there is only one of them every year.

I'm glad Apple is finally doin something different and adding features that us Galaxy users having be having for years. I've been waiting for an iPhone to make me want to switch and this still isn't the one but nice job with finally catching up. Go Apple!

Whoa, no mini models means a big no from me.
I’ve never been happier going back to iPhone 5 sizes phones, and can’t imagine carrying a brick in my pocket
I am always on the go and 13 mini is the best of two worlds - impressive battery life that lasts, and small size and weight

I was hoping to switch from my Galaxy s21 Ultra to a 14 Pro Max so I could sync with my MacBook Air M1. (Got it almost a year ago. The wifi antenna and Bluetooth are weaker than my 6 yr old HP, and there's no pause button on the video camera, but it's a great machine to work on.) But the 14 Pro Max's tiny 3X optical telephoto and 15X digital isn't in the same league as the s21 and s22 Ultras' 10X optical and 30X and 100X digital telephotos. (I get cool photos of the Moon with the s21!) So I'll probably wait for the 15 Pro Max which hopefully will match the Galaxy telephotos (though rumors are the s23 might have a 200X zoom), get the faster USB-C connection (esp if Apple wants to sell them in Europe), and put a pause button on the video camera, such an utterly simply and obvious thing.

wow, cant believe what i just watched, this is brillant, the choice of words, the technicality, the presentation, the passion.

i love videos and the fact that that you dont do the same topic over and over keep up the good work

Props to the editors for pushing this out within a few hours of the event! Great work.

So the selfie camera that is going to be a big hit (for some unknown reason) is underneath a panel with special multitasking attributes which will mean putting greasy fingerprints all over the selfie camera and that’s going to somehow make better photos 🤔, I would think the logical thing to do for the selfie obsessed, and given that the technology definitely exists, with thinner screens, is to have an LCD on the back to use the main cameras for everything.

Hello Arun Lewis again from peacehaven, been waiting for the I phone 14 review & yet again you've smashed it 👍 I've had a Samsung galaxy note 20 ultra since they came out it's been fantastic, but I would like to try an I phone for a change . Your brilliant review has convinced me to give the 14 pro max a go & I think I should , just keep doing what your doing as I said before I think this is the best channel on Clip-Share 👍🍻

Hi Arun! Love your videos 😄.
Quick question,
I currently have an S22 Ultra and I am planning to switch to IPhone 14 Pro Max to try apple I'm a first time user should I go for the change and will it be worth it?

Im waiting for the 15. I think that the 15 pro will have everything amazing about the 14 pro but will be optimized more so that I don't feel like im beta testing something

Been waiting for you can't wait to see the results. The best channel for review for sure I say .. always gives information corrects that matters the most .. heads of you
Keep it up

What you mentioned as "The Ugly" is precisely what will stop me from buying the iPhone 14.
I was expecting a notch design change and we got it! But only for the pro versions, which is a major disappointment from my point of view.
I'd already decided to buy the 14 as my 1st iPhone ever, but I just dropped that decision and am staying in Android world.
I mean: I can buy an used 13 pro max (with new battery) for less than 1200€, so what's the point in buying a new 14 base model for 1040€? To have the same design, same chipset, but possibly worse camera set?
Bad, bad move, Apple. Android it (still) is.

The thing that nobody mentions and what I hate about the "Dynamic island" is that it sits lower than the notch so it actually takes more space from your screen than the notch (because the piece of screen above the island is useless). While it brings more functionality, I think it's just dumb and even more distracting.

Still using my iPhone 6 plus and I love my headphone jack. Apples biggest fail was taking that away. Never had to swap out the battery yet.

Subbed, your content is professional and I love your personality, thank you kindly for your hard work that is genuinely appreciated by a lot of people!!

Well made. I want the 14 for just the camera haha but my 13promax will be good enough for another year by the sounds of this! Love your honest reviews!

I think the differentiation between the pro's and non-pros actually makes sense for apple because they do the same thing with their other products such as the macbook/macbook pro or imac/mac pro

Great take on the new iPhone 14. I was surprised Apple is removing the Sim tray from the 14. Seems like that might be ugly for those of us who travel internationally and pick up a SIM card for coverage.

There was also a feature only for iPhone 14 Pro Max that Arun didn't mention, it's the Crash detection system.

It’s just a shame it’s so expensive for new phones, they look and sound so cool to have and use

I am actually trying the S22 ultra soon cuz we decided to switch on a different carrier. I have been an IPhone user for a while now. I can’t wait to try Samsung!😊
