The iPhone 14 comes to market with the same launch price as the previous generation. At the same time, iPhone connoisseurs were more than disillusioned after the presentation of the new smartphone. Apple leaves large parts of the hardware unchanged and does not dare to change the design.

Top performance level despite last year's chip, Very high quality workmanship, Improved image and video quality, Excellent battery life

Hardly any innovations, Charging takes too long for 2022

Slightly better cameras but otherwise, not much of an update - buy the iPhone 14 Pro or switch to Android instead

Better low-light photography, Slightly longer battery life, Action mode gives super stabilised video

The same performance as the iPhone 13, No Dynamic Island or Always-On display, 60Hz screen

Apple's iPhone 15 Pro and 15 Pro Max are defined by their refinements: a lighter body made from titanium, a USB-C port for charging and fast data transfers, a processor capable of console games and, on the Pro Max, a new 5x telephoto zoom camera.

The Apple iPhone 15 Pro might not be the most exciting choice from this year's line up, with big competition from within its own ranks. However, for those that don't want the large screen of the Max, but like the Pro specs not offered by the 15, the 15 Pro remains a solid choice.

Lovely, premium design, Beautiful display, Excellent performance, Great camera results

Misses out on 5x zoom, Battery could be better

Apple’s best pro model yet is excellent, but the iPhone 15 Pro has some serious concerns.

Excellent camera tech, A phone that can play console-quality games, USB-C charging and fast file transfer

Durability might be a problem, Battery life has not improved, Over-sharpening of photos in post-processing

The slick, sleek iPhone 15 Pro is lighter than its predecessor and has outstanding performance, improved cameras and great capabilities.

Snappy design, Great new Action Button, Outstanding cameras

Not cheap, Battery life doesn’t match the iPhone 15 Pro Max, Telephoto lens is 3x

The iPhone 15 Pro may not be the most exciting upgrade of the generation, lacking the 5x telephoto lens of the Pro Max, but it remains a very capable compact option for practically everyone but iPhone 14 Pro users.

Lightweight and more comfortable to hold, Great camera performance in most conditions, Incredible A17 Pro power, Handy Action Button

Same 3x telephoto as its predecessor, Sluggish charging

Apple’s smaller pro model has plenty of reasons why you might choose it over the Max. This is an extremely powerful phone in a form that fits perfectly in your pocket and your hand.

Lighter titanium build, USB-C charging is handy, Smaller form factor fits better in the hand

Screen may be too small for some, Misses the 5X zoom option, Action button isn’t a big deal

Apple's latest non-Pro iPhone is superb - it's just that it's strikingly similar to last year's effort.

Still an incredible smartphone, Brilliant battery life gets a bit better, Excellent camera system gets a bit better

Last year’s Pro hardware, Wireless charging slow by modern standards, No USB-C; it’s now well overdue

The iPhone 14 is very similar to the iPhone 13, which itself was very similar to the iPhone 12. That doesn’t mean it’s a bad phone — it’s just less of an upgrade for anyone using a phone that’s only two years old.
