Key features
iPhone 14 and 14 Plus share all the features except for the screen sizes. The Plus model is bigger at 6.7 inches whereas the iPhone 14 is 6.1-inch. Both models are powered by last year's A15 Bionic chip, which is quite unusual for Apple. The cameras are improved with a new Ultra-Wide camera and a new 12MP main camera with f/1.5 aperture and sensor-based stabilisation. The new 12MP TrueDepth camera gets autofocus this time around. The new iPhones also get the Emergency SOS feature, which uses satellite connection to send emergency messages in places of no signal.
The Pro models are better in every way. The iPhone 14 Pro and Pro Max get an improved display with Always-On Display for the first time. The notch is gone and replaced by Dynamic Island, Apple's answer to the punch-hole camera, which is truly reinvented. The Pro models are also the first to get a 48MP main camera with a quad-pixel sensor, a 12MP Ultra-Wide camera, and an improved 12MP Telephoto camera with 3x optical zoom. The phones also get Crash Detection and Emergency SOS via Satellite features with A16 Bionic under the hood.
