Apple iPhone 14 Pro (256 GB) - Deep Purple

Product Information

Cue up a track on Spotify and you’ll see a tiny thumbnail of what’s currently playing to the left, along with a tiny animated graphic EQ to the right. On the inside, the changes are more prominent as the first significant thing that separates it from both its predecessor and the entry-level models in this lineup is the brand new A16 Bionic chip.

In testing, I was able to hit these figures and a bit more, recording up to 1,629cd/m2 when viewing HDR video and a positively blinding 2,272cd/m2 maximum overall. The Apple One free trial includes only services that you are not currently using through a free trial or a subscription. Last year’s A15 Bionic delivered similar improvements in both GPU and CPU-related tasks, as did the A14 Bionic before that. Of course, the big new thing this year is that the old bathtub notch has been removed and replaced by two, more space-efficient cutouts: one for the infrared projector and camera and the other for the new selfie camera.The latter is only available in the US and Canada at launch but the idea is simple enough: the phone is able to send very short SOS emergency messages via satellite if you get in trouble when you’re out of cellular contact. All battery claims depend on network configuration and many other factors; actual results will vary. Last year’s Cinematic mode is no longer restricted to 1080p and can now be captured in 4K resolution.

What Apple hasn’t done this year – again – is introduce USB-C charging, with the iPhone 14 Pro still featuring a Lightning connector on its bottom edge. With off-the-charts performance, the A16 Bionic is the fastest and most advanced chip on the market to date, arriving this time with a 6-core CPU. The camera bump is larger, which means cases for the iPhone 13 Pro won’t fit but, otherwise, there’s nothing new here. It’s boring, yes, and expensive of course but the iPhone 14 Pro is, inevitably, the best iPhone Apple has released so far. The truth is that, if we compare, this smartphone is noticeably superior to the previous generation Pro Max.I haven’t admittedly been using the phone very long but initial impressions indicate that it’ll easily last a day and more with moderate use.
