iPhone 14 Plus is much more interesting than the usual iPhone 14. It’s more for practical people who don’t need a whole bunch of cameras and just need a good smartphone for a few years ahead. Let’s see why 14 Plus is better than 13 and usual 14. New colours Blue and purple are not really an advantage because a lot of the people will use a case, but they are beautiful nevertheless. Sadly, the box still contains only a cable and the same card too. Of course, if you’re buying an iPhone in the USA, you won’t get that because there’s no physical SIM slot in USA iPhones.
iPhone 14 Plus Screen
First advantage the screen, technically it’s the same screen that was in iPhone, 13-12 hundred nits of brightness, not bad for a sunny day and 60 Hertz, which is a disappointment for many people. A lot of people though, will not notice any difference between 60 and 120 Hertz. It’s a strange thing for me, but ask your neighbour and he might not be able to tell the difference. The important part is the size. 6.7 inches and the screen surface is 20% more than the iPhone 14. It’s the same size as the Pro Max version, which means the screen can show more information.
It’s more comfortable to watch videos on and much easier to type, especially if you can use two hands. Of course, on the go it may be much more difficult. On the other side, it’s not only the screen that’s bigger, it’s also the phone. Some elements will be harder to reach, and if you have smaller hands, it may be really difficult to use as a daily driver. Not to mention it’s not fit for every pocket, but the size brings these second advantage. Battery…
iPhone 14 Plus Battery is the Best
If we just take numbers, the battery of the iPhone 14 Plus is 32% bigger than the battery of iPhone 14. More than that, 14 Plus has the longest battery life, longer than 14 Pro Max, which is a bit of a surprise, so you will not be needing an iPhone 14 Plus battery replacement any time soon.. We decided to compare it to a new iPhone 13 and came to the conclusion that one hour of watching YouTube on Max brightness takes 3% more on 13. That makes roughly a 30% increase within the 10 hours. That’s a huge difference in real life. If you need a bigger battery, iPhone 14 Plus is good to go.
iPhone 14 Plus Cameras
Third Advantage cameras. This generation might not be impressive on the first look, but it actually is. thanks to the new algorithm that keeps more details, night shots are better.
Sensor of the main camera got bigger and now it’s as big as 13. Pro Max’s sensor means it allows more light to go to the sensor. It’s not always obvious even in direct comparison, but there’s less noise, pictures become more natural and you don’t have to hold the phone too long. In night mode as it was before. Front camera got much better, it now has out of focus. You can turn on the timer, take a few steps back and make a selfie while actually seeing how it will look. Previous iPhones
wouldn’t allow that trick. The photos just were blurred because of the fixed focus. Or maybe you want to take a picture of your makeup from the up close. Now you can do that too. Aperture is now slightly more open, so there will be more light on the sensor. You can see that in night mode time front camera upgrade means a great deal to all sorts of bloggers and it’s a really welcomed upgrade. All the pros of computational photography and video are also here. For example, Cinematic mode
is available in 4K. That allows users to post those videos to YouTube and crop for other social networks if they need to be cropped without loss of quality.
Action mode is also a new thing if you want to take videos while actively moving. It’s a neat feature. The iPhone uses optical and electronic stabilisation to give you GoPro like picture. Keep in mind though, it needs a lot of lights; therefore it’s either for daytime conditions or you’ll have to deal with more noise than usual.
Photo algorithms got an update too. Now they take more details from row photos instead of processed ones. It’s not a big upgrade, but it can be visible in some situations. Fourth advantage cooling. New generation of iPhones definitely cools better than the old one, approximately 4-5 Celsius degrees cooler. That is true for both 14 and 14 plus, and that is kind of strange. The CPU is the same and the GPU has one more core.
Don’t forget about physics. The more space inside the phone, the better the cooling will be. That’s one of the not so noticeable updates, but it’s important, especially if you play games a lot or do heavy tasks. For example, photo or video editing on your phone. Fifth advantage speakers. New generation of iPhone got upgraded speakers and Apple didn’t mention it at the event. Let’s compare this sound of iPhone 13 and 14 Plus.
Is it worth your money? The iPhone 14 Plus costs 930 bucks if you do not wish to connect it to your carrier in the USA or approximately €1100 in Europe for which users this iPhone exists in the 1st place. First of all, for those who need a big battery and cameras that are good enough, especially a selfie camera.
For those who have no intention of paying more for slightly better CPU, Dynamic Island Pro, Progress macro cameras, 120 Hertz display, and the third camera, that’s all of the differences from the iPhone 14 Pro Max. Of course, it’s always an option to buy the iPhone 13 Pro Max, last year’s flagship. That way you’ll have 120 Hertz display, third telephoto lens, and the ability to take macro photos. But in that case, you won’t get the newest algorithms, action mode, or cinematic mode at 4K improved selfie camera.
These phones will disappear from the shelves pretty quickly. So if you want 13 Pro Max, buy it as fast as you can. Seems to me that the 14 Plus is actually a good smartphone. True, it doesn’t have as many cool features as the Pro Max, not even 120 Hertz, but it has some practical advantages, Better, better life, bigger screen, enhanced camera speakers and better cooling. 14 Plus also has a secret improvement. stronger mag safe magnets. It’s a good thing if you love a naked phone and often use it as a navigator in the car; and don’t forget crash detection and satellite connections. However that is not for all countries.
