Having been the proud new owner of the iPhone XS Max for a few days, I’ve gotten a feel for the device. Here’s a compressed iPhone XS Max review. Everything is very fast and responsive. Apps spring right open. Photos scroll without delay. Maps render without a hiccup.

This one takes a little bit of time getting familiar with after having the home button.

It’s hard to imagine that the original iPhone X (read as ‘ten’) has been out for a year. As with previous years, Apple tends to launch an all new phone, followed by an uprated ‘S’ model the year after. This time, there’s a new ‘XS’ version of the iPhone X, and now we also get two other variants.

Amazing dual-lens camera and clever features to create stunning photos, That amazing 6.5 inch OLED screen is just beautiful, Premium materials and typical Apple design excellence, The best facial recognition in the business, An immesely powerful phone with impressive capabiliites for gaming and AR

Out-of-the-box charger doesn't support quick charging, The top of the range 512GB model is very, very expensive, Can get slippery without a case

In some ways the XS Max could be your perfect phone. It brings the option of a larger screen to those for whom 5.8in just isn’t enough and is the first iPhone to cater for those who need two SIMs.

The Apple iPhone 14 isn’t a huge upgrade on the iPhone 13, yet it still is a great phone with a top camera, good battery life and all the iOS benefits.

Clever safety features, Very good battery life, Reliable camera, Fun colours, You’ve got an ageing iPhone: If you’re on an iPhone 11 or older, then the changes here will make a notable difference.

Stuck on a 60Hz display, Minimal differences to the iPhone 13, You’ve got an iPhone 13: The changes from Apple’s previous phone aren’t enough to warrant an upgrade this year.

Apple's latest non-Pro iPhone is superb - it's just that it's strikingly similar to last year's effort.

Still an incredible smartphone, Brilliant battery life gets a bit better, Excellent camera system gets a bit better

Last year’s Pro hardware, Wireless charging slow by modern standards, No USB-C; it’s now well overdue

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.

Top-notch cameras, Amazing display, Snappy performance, Great battery life

It's just "this year's iPhone"

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
