Why You Should Skip the iPhone 14... 

pro

Not worth buying, eSim is a killer

Pro max 💪🏽 not gonna buy tho 😂

morbius

14 pro max

That’s pretty much what I do. When you upgrade once every 4-5 years, you alway have the experience of major upgrades, not minor.

I agree!! I went from 7 to the 14 pro and I’m enjoying it immensely!

I went from 8 plus to 12 and this is enough for what I will ever need in a phone

Own 8plus, let’s see where it goes 🥺

most underrated comment

I upgraded from a stick to an Iphone 14 pro max, truly amazing.

good one lmao

Lol

But you can't chunk your phone at someone anymore (or accidentally -- or purposely -- choke someone in between). Or play limbo.

iPhone 7-10 Lcd to full oled 60hz iPhoneX-13pro 60hz to 120hz oled yeah 3 gen gaps probably the sweet spot for me too.

I did the exact same thing… except skipping the middle step lmao

I’m still using a 6 plus, still debating on upgrading to 14

Just a gimmick to me

@@garluns do it mate i genuinely don't know how you're even still using a 6 plus, they're unsupported and don't get iOS updates beyond urgent security patches

And that's the problem. The market is already saturated. And if you use the smartphone like most people do... you ain't gonna know the difference between a current one or one of 2 generations ago. Are you really gonna use the fact that it's a little bit faster, has a little more gadgets and a little more storage? I mean.... na, you then are gonna upgrade only when it's necessary. Meaning either when your phone breaks, it doesn't do anymore what you want to do or you find out that the apps you need can't update anymore and are not usable anymore.

I move from 6S in 2019 to just 11 and wondering to get 14 Pro, on daily basis I don’t do some huge business or trading, but Iove to have the better version. To be honest if 6S had a good battery I would be with it to the moment 😅

I went from a iPhone 6s plus to a iPhone 14 pro max we look a similar upgrade.

Npc

I dont like waiting a few gens because whenever I pay off my phone I end up paying even more.

6S 😮

Yeah

The 14 Pro is such a great Phone, expensive but the quality is worth it.

@@sumajdionis9688 iPhone 11 still good?

More than likely because the phone is new and has yet to be overcharged throughout the night, which most people do.

Yep, I had the s20 and switched to the 14 pro max, T-Mobile gave me $800 so I said why not lol

whats an android user like u doing on this vid man

@@lucatiu1608 really bro? So android users can't watch iPhone vids? Grow up

The problem is that if you preorder on Samsung each year, you get a brand new top of the line phone each year for a couple of hundred dollars. If you hold the phone for 3 years, it has no trade in value.

@@lucatiu1608 I have a 13pro and watch Samsung vids,stop being embarrassing

Me too. I have the 7+ as well, and just got the iPhone 14 plus in the mail like 3 days ago. I opened it and turned it on and charged it but that's it. Put in the box and I'm waiting for my case and glass screen protectors to come in before I begin using it 🤣🤣🤣🤣

😂😂😂 I’ll probably be the same when mine arrives tomorrow 😅

Lmao you’ll be good, these newer phones are invincible for real

I bought a $79AU silicone case from Apple. I was skeptical in the beginning as I was used to using the chunky Lifeproof and Otter boxes; but after using this flimsy and what appeared to be a weak case I’m impressed. The ergonomically design is extremely well thought out. I’ve had it dropped, thrown, stood on and not a single bit of damage to the phone at all. I highly recommend them. It’s made by Otter, which I didn’t realise at the beginning. After putting it through torture I wanted to know what brand it was.

me too, i went from 7+ to 14+, these phones are such good quality

I don't know if that's true but a youtuber tested 5g speed and it is twice as fast on the 14 than on the 13. Couldn't find other test so I am not sure that's true but if that is I'll defintely go with the 14

As you said, logical choice...let's be real here, fan boys and girls will always be as sheeps 🐑 without a logical behaviour. "Go and buy whatever we throw at you no matter the little changes we have made." And people still fall for it.

2 more GB ram. Large photo sensor for low light. An improved 5g antenna/modem. One extra GPU core. Slightly larger battery, Bluetooth 5.3 etc. As someone with an iPhone 11 ($220 trade in) my question is $479 usd for an iPhone 13 (very good phone that will last a good 3 years likely) or an iPhone 14 with the above stated improvements for $579. Everyone phone for me regardless is an upgrade and it’s hard to willingly want to spend $779 on the pro when I can get a similar experience for me on a 14. (I’ve had iPhones since the 5s and the 120 refresh isn’t that big to me as I’ve never had it and I’ve still seen vast improvements over the years, dynamic island is cute but not that big a deal for me, I won’t have to wait for the pros to restock, and the 14 in the grand scheme is a very good phone since people said the 13 was good too. Just minor upgrades from 13 to 14. But for older users there’s a real question.

Prob more for people who go hiking, road trips and outdoor activities. With all the safety features. And people who like apples camera. But yeah 14 is pretty much reuse recycle old parts lol

The camera. I just switched from a Note 20 ultra to a 13PM and I’m honestly pretty disappointed in this 13PM camera. The low light performance, zoom, wide angle and video stabilization is embarrassing to post to my social media compared to my 2 year old Samsung. I was planning on keeping this 13PM till the 15 came out with hopefully USB C but I can’t stand this camera. Might jump on the 14PM just for the upgrade but I feel like it’s still going to be subpar camera quality compared to what I’m used to with Samsung flagships

What’s your I phone 13 like? Just ordered mine did not want to go for the I phone 14

That’s crazy cause why I go the same path as iPhones as you. 😂

I Second this

Then look up a drop test with these ultra slim cases. Lews cases are nothing different from similar styles. If someone wanted protection they would get a case that would protect, not ultra slim.

I’ve had his cases on my 12 Pro since launch in 2020… I’ve dropped my phone numerous times, often on concrete, and my phone has never once taken damage. The cases however do get some considerable scuffs where they make impact

HELLO FAN👋 THANK YOU FOR REACHING OUT AND WATCHING MY VIDEOS INBOX ME ON TELEGRAM TO GET A PACKAGE🎁...

I have the same phone. Xs. I got 4 years out of my battery… it literally just came up for service last month. After 3 years battery was still 89 or 87% ?? good. The trick is to not over charge it. It blows me away Apple doesn’t have a “stop charging at X percent” like a Tesla. Keep it between 40-80% charge at the batteries last a long time. Becomes a habit granted it’s a pain to manage some days.

I got my XS 4years . It was time to change . In this 4 years I changed one Battery.

It’s Apple so you are right, they definitely have a plan!

of course. This is obvious

Exactly they wanted to push everyone to the pros

Yes Infact it is a very calculated move

Good point

Hope you don't use verizon, it drop calls and buffers on 4G and 5G won't pick up

Screen protector on any case ……… probably would help -_-

Also I’ve had no case on my phone for a full year and dropped plenty of times with just a screen protector my phone is basically mint so…

Try the Otterbox Defender XT Series and thank me later. I dropped my XS Max in a Symmetry from three feet and cracked the screen since it landed flat and the case’s edges don’t come up high enough. The Defebder XT has kept my 12 Pro Max pristine in spite of the abuse I’ve given it.

@@2TMaskeraide the screen protector doesnt protect the edges that well -_-

@@al3st0r I would personally recommend you wait and upgrade when the iPhone 15 series is released. The iPhone 12 series are already very powerful phones. I’m only upgrading because my cousin wants an iPhone and I’m selling him mine.

@@isaiasbatista100 I personally love my 12 pro max and would never upgrade but a family member in Mexico wants an iPhone but they are too expensive over there. I’m selling him mine.

Samsung and Apple prefer to go green and not provide it. So that you can go out and buy it separately and create more trash.

me no care. I apple user. When battery run out, I buy new phone

@@paulinoatif1272 I just take out my SIM card and put it on my other one it’s brilliant

Sony Samsung also not provide charger, why just blame on apple?

A 50 thousand dollar car doesn't come with a full tank of gas

if price is not your concern then there is no reason for you to get the regular 14 and just get the smaller pro one

Yeah agreed I work in retail for apple and I would suggest the pro 14 due to the fact that this platform will be the new building block for future models including the 15 it is just how apples trajectory goes and the numbers show

That’s the issue I have with my 11 pro max. I notice a difference in quality in the camera from others. I would bet the screen refresh rate would be a bonus too.

Thats exactly thing that is making me doubt between the iPhone 14 pro max and ghe Samsung s22 Ultra. I have the 11 pro max right now. The thing is i’m in doubt wether i will see the change enough. (Battery life is just not enough, storage space is filled up to the brim and my screen has too much scratches(next one is gonna get a screen protector))

I did the same thing

So why Apple? The portion package is either too small or overpriced. Might as well go for a chinese android. Theyre loaded. And performance is supreme

I think the iPhone 8 is currently the most used iPhone globaly 🤷🏾 iPhones are made to last because most people don't really upgrade for years.

8 plus is better than xr anyway except for bezels and processor

The 14 won’t last any longer than the 13

I definitely agree. I was from a Samsung S7. I needed an upgrade, i went to the S22 ultra 512 gb. Since I'll be using it for atleast 5-6years, why not just get the flagship with the highest storage (1Tb version not available in my region) available.

Just came from a 8 which is basically what the se is now but with the upgraded chip I’m glad to say I just got a 13 and I’m not going to upgrade for another three years atleast maybe four

You are just a sheep.

Yeah sure, if you upgraded from iphone 6 or 7. anyone above X don’t need it tho

@@Erg893 nah its miles better than the X.

@@Erg893 Iphone 14 pro max is just a copycat of nothing phone 1🎉

same

I also got the iphone 11 pro max and it's still fast so i'm gonna till it's dead, hopefully it still works when the iphone 20 comes out

I’m also on the 11 pro max but I have a gut feeling the 15 is going to be a big jump from 14 and 15 designs. If I were you I’d just wait one more year, save that money and get a big upgrade when the 15 comes out !

@@Fadeddbblack I already got the 14 Pro Max, and so far I'm loving it. The screen is bigger, brighter, the battery lasts way longer, the speakers are amazing, the speed is great with the A16 bionic chip. Obviously the 15 is gonna be better, but, I'm just gonna enjoy the 14 pro max. And hey, if the 15 is significantly better to the point where its revolutionary, then I'll definitely upgrade to 15, if not, then I'm sticking to my same mantra, and I'll upgrade next to the 17th. iPhones are better in the sense that they last longer than Androids.

have an iphone xr and am really wanting to upgrade to the 14 pro max...i agree waiting multiple years will really give you that wow factor to show how much technology has upgraded

Us bro

No one should use Tik tok

I have a 12, is it worth getting the 14 pro or pro max?

@@cameronhilsenteger3877 for sure. The 120 is amazing. Way brighter. Macros back. It’s worthwhile. Let me know if you like it!!

@@willbennett8799 I’m so sorry…

Welcome to the club it might feel a little bit “dumbed down” compared to an android but I think it’s a lot more friendly and supported

How are you finding it? I switch between android and iOS each year. For most of the year though I’ll be on the iPhone.

@@WindEntityColin I agree, I have had iOS all my life until 2019, but now I use a note 20, and android has a lot more "fun" stuff, but its not anywhere as easy and simple

The forced camera shutter sound didn’t deter you from buying a Japanese model? Ordered mine from Hong Kong and got it shipped to me here in Japan - physical dual sim and eSIM is awesome!

@@DanielandYuka the fact you can’t turn this sound off by default baffles me. Not sure what Apple was thinking with this one. You can of course toggle the switch on the side of the phone to mute sounds, but this is a bit annoying. If you turn on Live Photos by default it’ll also mute the shutter sound: Settings > Camera > Preserve Settings and turn on Live Photo.

Say no more, I'm making the exact same switch

you became clown

Sure it awesome phone! Good for another 3,4 years. Enjoy it my man🙌

The 14 pro could’ve been a better upgrade for just 200 more.

I tried to switch from Samsung to iPhone when the 12 came out because I just loved the design. I couldn't stand it for more than a couple of months. Ios was just too different, I couldn't get used to it. No haptic feedback while typing. No always on display. 2021 was an expensive year. I'm glad you're enjoying it though.

You wouldn’t buy a 14 because last years model is better at nearly everything and cheaper

@@andreaskvisler Isn’t that usually every year tho? Of course not when they redesign the whole thing. We seem to forget apple would release the “s” “se” versions as the new iphone instead of a whole generation number if i’m not mistaken

@@andreaskvisler exactly bro, If we compare iPhone14 N 14 pro it feel like Apple make N introducing iPhone 14 like some $100 phone

@@andreaskvisler I agree but you might as well fork over the extra $300 and get a 14pro

1000% agreed especially in the last sentence

I think the regular 14 move is more based on the chip shortages is why. They just pop in last years chips into these.

Same. Although my 11 had an issue with the mic and true depth camera. Would have cost me $550 to fix. It was literally cheaper to upgrade. On a Verizon payment plan of course. Hey $200-300 for new is better than $550 on an old one

i'll get my ip14 pro max next week. is it that good? Hows the battery performance n charging time?

13 pro has the same features, just no island

The 2000 nits it’s a game changer for sure. I just wanted a 2TB storage

Why not just change the battery?

how long have you had the 12? because i got mine about 1 year and a half ago

It also wasn't any learning curve cause you bought a slightly upgraded version of the phone you already owned. Not hating, I actually like the iPhone 14 Pro/Pro Max, but upgrading so often is just wasteful.

@@Humble_808 Agreed, Apple needs more competition, they need a wake up call to actually innovate more, yes the phone has a great design and screen that doesn't need to be changed but companies can definitely put way better tech in their phones that their saving for more profit, although the screen, chipset & materials used to make the phone are all great lots of physical features are missing, the display admittedly has a high Brightness cap but it obviously isn't the best out there, the phone isn't top notch but good enough for an upgrade over older models so people buy it, although experimental Apple could probably figure out a way to put the cameras and sensors under the display so there's no notch, there's no USB type-c port which although isn't needed it'd be a nice upgrade, the USB version is still 2. Overall, the phone could obviously be better by including many more instrumental features.

I have an iPhone 12 Pro Max and don’t see the point why I should buy the 14 series and confirm their shitty strategy

dont like the dynamic island, it will be annoying after long use haha looks like assistive touch that u cannot disabled... annoying oblong touch of the screen when u playing or watching movies , haha

Dude, thats like going from a nokia 3310 to the first smartphone😂😂😂

@@subwoofermaniac it was a hell of a transition I must admit. Then I got a new MacBook a few months lateras well. I’m loaded for bear for the next 3 years.

Ultimately I held onto my 5s and 7 max for a long time before upgrading to the 13pro because I didn’t want to make the switch to “no home button” but my fears were subsided after realizing I didn’t need the home button after all.

If enough people talk about it I don’t doubt it or maybe the SE series will become the mini

Fully agree. I got my 13 mini in May and plan to keep it for as long as humanly possible.

@@StankyPack big difference, it’s so much better. Camera, screen quality are much better and the dynamic island is pretty cool

⬆️Hi, kindly shear a screenshot of the message you received on RU-vid, via your RU-vid comment box. Thank you!

In Europe they have sim tray

Ngl I think they did it purpose so that people who want to upgrade would go for the 13 as it is only minimal upgrade for the 14. It's smart strategy and will probably do it to the 15 later on.

@@Czyb20 if that was the case then why world bring the 14 even 13 pro max got discontinued and will lose to apple if people didn't buy 14

You’ll have to skip the iPhone 15 and beyond then because Apple isn’t gonna bring the sim tray back.

I don't care about the sim tray since I never really changed any sim cards out of it, so I'm perfectly fine with apple removing it

i wonder why the 13pro is nowhere to be found

It probably will. Apple usually improves every 2 years.

I still think it's kind of funny how my Pixel 4 (a phone from 2019) has a display that refreshes faster than the base model of the new iPhone. In smooth mode the display runs at 90hz at the cost of battery.

I went from 8 plus to 13. Should’ve went for the pro. Now I’m thinking of getting an android. iPhones gets tiring after sometime

@@ctwilli0950 I hear the 60 hz on the iphone is as smooth as the 90 hz on android. But I agree that it's disappointing they still only have 60 hz after so long (there were rumours that the 14 would get a 90 hz, but alas it did not come to be). It could mean that maybe the average consumer just doesn't care that much -- or maybe it's other reasons like battery (apple does seem like they care a lot about battery and efficiency/optimization).

Its called "pro motion" for a reason :)

@@Veronicz They have nice animations. But hertz is a hardware limitation. Your screen just isn't gonna refresh fast enough. So no matter how good the optimization it'd going to feel stuttery compared to a higher refresh rate display

Ip14 is overpriced. 12 and 13 were pretty good value for money even compared to Android alternatives, but this "12SS" just does not cut it anymore - especially in EU where the price has been upped by some 15%.

The animations are great, but yeah, that could be a bit annoying

As an android user that just switched to iPhone its a massive upgrade, don’t get me wrong androids are extremely customizable, but it was too much customization for me, iPhone feels more premium, simplistic, and overall better, so you aren’t missing out on much

@@juanescobedo3281 That’s good to know, ty, and welcome to the club. Glad you like your new iPhone. They are great phones, I love my 12 pro max, it’s one of my favorites so far. However, to me, shelling out $1,200 bucks to get the latest and greatest just doesn’t seem worth it anymore. That’s a lot of money for minor changes. It seems like the other cell phone manufacturers are at least trying to create something different like the z-fold from Samsung, and it makes me wonder why Apple doesn’t do anything different like that. We need Steve Jobs back.

Wait for iPhone 15 in a couple of months

get a protective clear case!

Same! It’s a nice upgrade coming from a 11

Had iPhone7 plus and the battery burst after 2 years. Replaced with another iPhone 7 as i paid to have the battery replaced at iPhone store. 2 years later that I phone started looping and finally died after 4 loop resets at store. Then I bought a used iPhone12 Pro Max. Still working OK. cost me $750 for it. The new ones were going for $1,400. So I think I overpaid. But someone else did the deal as a middle man and maybe I messed up. The phone is OK for my usage so far. Time will tell. I want to buy the iPhone Ultra. But it seems that model is dead now.

Megapixels dont equal good Camera

@@greenhold6280 true that. I like it way better than what I had before though. The camera quality is really nice.

Same here. I upgraded from a iPhone 8 to a 14 Pro Max. After this phone stops getting updates, I’m probs going to try a Samsung flagship or something. But Yh, waiting years for an upgrade is so good since you have more features that your looking forward to

Hows the battery life and i have the 8 plus im tired of this big phone sometimes i cant wait to upgrade to the pro

So what exactly does this island do that is so groundbreaking?

@@mvally2714 very promising battery life, halfway through the day it’s often still near 70 - 60. with constant use, its down near 20 around 9 or 10!

The same thought I had.

That’s how it used to be back in the day. Apple just sold one high priced, premium model phone, and if you account for inflation is around $1000 in todays dollar.

They’ll likely just do a separate Apple event for the regular ones after the pros are released.
