  • The iPhone 14 Pro Max should be the ultimate iPhone to date. But IOS 16 might be taking the fruit off the island! Here's my review after about 1 month, comparing the 14 Pro Max to the 13 Pro Max and 11 Pro Max. While showcasing some new home screen widgets!
    Thanks for watching!

    I upgraded from a 12 Pro Max and haven’t looked back. The 120hz screen is nice, especially when the M1 iPad Pro already has this. I take a lot of low-light pictures so this camera upgrade was welcomed compared to the 12 PM. If I were to add or change anything, it would be Apple should include a slider for how bright you want the AOD to be in the display settings.

Wish it was as light as iPhone 14 regular but I guess stainless steel is what keeping it so heavy doesn’t matter anymore though you get used to it. I don’t have any complains so far I have disabled always on coz I think it’s useless. Upgraded from xr probably that’s why I am loving it so much 😂

    I upgraded from a busted XR. I don’t think there’s enough difference between the 13 and 14 to justify the upgrade but IMO from the 12 back I’d say it’s worth it for most people. This year Apple definitely didn’t impress the world but I think they perfected this model design with the 14. I hope they plan on giving a new look for 2023 iPhones with some more impressive upgrades

      The widget is from app called Widgy and it’s under “Clean Date/Weather - Alaris” It’s been solid!

    Which color should I get for the iPhone 14 Pro Max?
    Space Black OR Deep Purple???

    I just feel these additional animations in the dynamic island will drain more battery life especially with for sure the worse-and-worse optimization in the future iOS 16.5, iOS 17, iOS 18 etc for older iPhones. And it doesn’t really save much time or effort either. You still need to tap a few times or hold the tap to control apps. It’s a cool idea, but I kind of don’t want that in the future flagship iPhones.

    I’m I the only one who almost neeever had issues with beta software?
    I’m currently with my iPhone 14 pro max with the latest beta and its pretty normal
    And making 10h to 13h screen ON time, love the battery life of this phone 😊
    Especially when my previous phone battery only lasted like 3h to 6h screen on time depending of the use
    It’s a pretty massive jump for me and its fenomenal

    One could say that the island life comes at a COAST
