Stunning display, Performance that should stay fast for a long time, Reliable cameras in all conditions, Long battery life, Dynamic island is a great idea, You want the best screen on an iPhone: The 6.7-inch OLED panel is great. It’s big, has a fast refresh rate and can get very (very) bright.

No big zoom camera improvements, Uncomfy design without a case, You want a phone that’s comfortable to hold for long periods: While I love the flat sides and boxy look of the smaller Pro, it’s quite uncomfortable at this larger size.

Apple revamps its flagship phone in many meaningful ways – but it comes at a significant price

Impressive camera system, Industry-leading display, Dynamic Island is actually good, First-rate performance

Bulky and heavy, Hefty price hike, No USB-C, No optical zoom beyond 3x

Hannah Stryker / Review Geek The iPhone 14 is the latest iteration of Apple’s flagship device. Since its launch, the iPhone has set the standard of what a smartphone is, what it does, and how it looks. Fifteen years later, it’s still doing that.

A brick. The largest Apple smartphone is bulky and heavy, but offers a super-bright 6.7-inch LTPO display, a fast processor and, above all, a much larger battery than the smaller Pro model, but uses the same 48 MP triple camera. Read our review to find out whether this justifies the steep surcharge.

large, super-bright and most-accurate 120Hz display, very good battery life, strong SoC, good camera setup, precise localization, long update supply

heavy, no Wi-Fi 6E, no mmWave outside the USA, telephony with weak noise cancellation, meager audio codec support for Bluetooth, only 12 months warranty

If you're in the market for a big-screen new iPhone, you've got two options: the iPhone 14 Plus ($899+) and the iPhone 14 Pro Max ($1,099+) . Unlike in past years, however, these two non-Pro and Pro iPhones don't feel terribly different.

Big screen, lower price, Excellent main camera, Best battery life of any iPhone, Best camera of any iPhone, Superb display and works with coolest "Pro" features, Excellent battery life

Lacks the coolest features of the iPhone 14 Pro Max, Huge size won't be for everybody, It's Apple's most expensive iPhone, Huge size won't be for everybody

The iPhone 14 isn’t much of an upgrade over the iPhone 13, but it’s still a great device and an upgrade for anyone coming from the iPhone 11 or older.

Great camera, Good battery, Emergency features are cool, Still excellent performance

Display could use some upgrades
