iPhone 14, iPhone 14 Plus: What’s New?

We are at a point where there is not much smartphone makers can do to make them feel fresh and exciting. The iPhone 14 is a capable iterative step beyond the iPhone 13, but it doesn’t break any new ground and doesn’t rush anyone to buy it. On the other hand, the iPhone 14 Plus represents a whole new offering and if you can afford it, you might be tempted to upgrade.

The most appealing aspect of the iPhone 14 Plus to me is that it is much lighter than before. iphone 14 pro max, at 203g compared to 240g. If you were fired by how heavy and cumbersome flagship models, you may find this new option a happy middle ground. The iPhone 14 remains the lightest in its class and is easy to handle.

What’s also interesting is that the iPhone 14 Plus promises the best battery life of any iPhone ever. It can outperform its premium siblings in this regard thanks to its less demanding display and other hardware.

The camera system has been improved with a bigger sensor and f/1.5 aperture for the new 12-megapixel main camera. The great news is that the front camera now supports autofocus so you can be more creative with self portraits. Low-light performance is said to be at least twice as good among all cameras, and it was already great with the iPhone 13 series. Between the camera hardware, the processor, and iOS, there’s a new set of capabilities that Apple is calling its “Photonic Engine.” This basically means that HDR processing, in which details from multiple exposures are combined to arrive at the final shot, now occurs much earlier in the capture and processing pipeline. By working on uncompressed data, Apple says focus locking is sharp, colors are true to life, and details are vastly improved. Action Mode is a new video stabilization option that uses the sensor area beyond the frame you’re shooting and then crops each frame to compensate for motion, achieving results that Apple says would be a gimbal. is comparable to using .

Crash detection is a new feature based on the more advanced accelerometer and gyroscope that all iPhones of this generation have. It can detect sudden slowdowns and recognize sounds, triggering calls to emergency services and your trusted contacts to help you when you need it. Satellite-based emergency SMS communication is currently limited to the US and Canada, and also uses Apple’s hardware and software to locate satellites without a bulky antenna. It’s extremely slow and limited in functionality, but it can be a lifesaver if you’re ever stranded without cellular network coverage. It will be a paid service, but we don’t know its price yet, and the first two years are free.

The Starlight and Midnight color options continue from last year, and there’s a much brighter (product) red option. This year’s new colors are light, denim-like blue and a very light lilac purple.

iPhone 14, iPhone 14 Plus: What You Don’t Get

Apple thinks last year’s core hardware is still good enough To move to the latest iPhones. The iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus work with the A15 Bionic SoC, though it slightly more capable version Last year’s Pro model had an additional GPU core, so there’s still a little upgrade to be done. This is the first time that Apple is stratifying its Pro and non-Pro models with completely different SoCs – this could be due to supply chain and manufacturing issues, or it’s a sign that we’re really into CPU matters. have reached the point of diminishing returns. power to the phone.

One major disappointment is that the 120Hz ProMotion display feature hasn’t waned from last year’s Pro model until this year’s iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus. The resolution, brightness and color capabilities are exactly the same as last year. of course you don’t get cool new dynamic island functionality Or either the always on display. Apple has also reserved its 48-megapixel main camera sensor and second-gen sensor shift stabilization for the premium model.

In the US, you don’t get a SIM tray at all because Apple is now leaving All-in on eSIM, That’s not necessarily a good thing, but it’s likely that Android makers will follow suit. Apart from being slightly thicker, the physical design of the iPhone 14 is largely similar to that of the iPhone 13 with a glass back, ceramic shield front, and aluminum frame. There are no new claims about durability, no improvement in MagSafe or wired charging speeds, and no USB Type-C port.

The iPhone 14 Plus will probably sell well simply because it’s a bigger iPhone that isn’t as expensive as the Pro Max model. However, the vanilla iPhone 14 is likely to have a very low viewership as it doesn’t offer anything new.
