I chose this phone because I wanted the larger size, and am not disappointed. I can now read the screen easily without glasses! I also like that I can now unlock the phone from a face scan even though I am wearing a face covering. All that you expect from an iPhone; would recommend.

Upgraded from a normal sized iPhone 12, and its very much just a larger sized version of the previous phone. No faster, doesnt feel like the screen is any better. I find bluetooth is still lacking with its connectivity and options setttings.

The iPhone 14 Plus is the outlier in Apple’s 2022 smartphone line-up – but it might just be the easiest one to recommend. This is the only iPhone 14 model that offers something different from what I’ve had before.

Excellent battery life, Light design works well with the big screen, Fast and reliable performance, You want an iPhone that lasts (and lasts): Out of all the iPhone 14 models I’ve reviewed this year, this is the best for battery life.

Some sacrifices for a high price, No ProMotion, No telephoto camera, A fast screen is key: While the iPhone 14 Plus’s screen is bigger, it still lacks some of the skills of the Pro models. There’s no ProMotion for fast refresh rate, for example, which feels a bit of a miss for a phone of this price.

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 Plus is Apple’s new super-sized smartphone that takes what was good about the base model 14 , including its more repair-friendly design, and adds a much bigger screen. The 6.7in display provides much more space for watching video, reading messages or simply having bigger text.

Pros: easier and cheaper to repair, better cameras, water resistant, Face ID, very long battery life, good performance, big screen, long software support.

Cons: no USB-C, need your own charger, difficult to use one-handed, no telephoto camera, screen slower than competition and 14 Pro.

The iPhone 14 is better than its predecessor, but it's also more expensive and doesn't have many significant upgrades.

Even faster, with a better camera and more features.

Charger is optional. Lacks telephoto lens. Price has been increased.

Since the Apple iPhone 14 Plus has a lot in common with the iPhone 14 , our verdict is very similar. The iPhone 14 Plus, too, is an excellent smartphone and a top choice in terms of the design, build quality, display, camera, battery life, and performance.

excellent OLED display, dust- and waterproof, fast Wi-Fi, wide range of frequencies supported, excellent camera, very fast performance, great battery life

display limited to 60 Hz, charging rate limited to 20 watts, no macro lens, wide notch

Apple hasn’t used the Plus name since 2017, but it has resurrected it in 2022 with the iPhone 14 Plus. Just like before, the new model increases the screen size of the standard one, but keeps the majority of the other technical features in place. It fits in that awkward space between the cheaper iPhone 14 and the slightly more expensive, but superior Pro model. But is there any real reason to buy it? The iPhone 14 Plus is wider, taller, and heavier than the iPhone 14, and the only dimension that stays the same is the thickness at 7.8mm. Made from aluminum and glass, it’s a step down in luxury from the stainless steel and glass Pro models, but with this comes the advantage of low weight. At 203 grams, the iPhone 14 Plus can’t be called light, but it’s lighter than the iPhone 14 Pro and only a few grams heavier than the Samsung Galaxy S22+. My usual iPhone of choice is the iPhone 14 Pro, and I’ve been consistently surprised at how light the iPhone 14 Plus feels when I pick it up, despite...

Large, vibrant, detailed screen; Two-day battery life; Easy to use software; Great everyday camera;

It's a big phone; 60Hz refresh rate;

There’s no dynamic refresh rate: it’s a 60Hz screen. Even so, in most usage, you’ll barely notice that it’s not as fast and smooth as its Pro sibling.
