iPhone 14 and 14 Plus Hands-On: New Cameras, Larger Screen, eSIM Card

 


Apple dropped four new iPhone 14 models this year, including the iPhone 14 Pro and Pro Max which might have the buzziest new features. The Pro models lose the infamous notch and get a pill-shaped display cutout around which Apple added a Dynamic Island for alerts and tracking live activities. Probably the biggest upgrade to the non-Pro iPhone 14 is the fact that there is a second larger version with a big screen called the iPhone 14 Plus. Both the iPhone 14 and 14 Plus get a bunch of new features including a new SOS Emergency via Satellite service, a new video stabilization tool called action mode, an upgraded Cinematic mode and all the major iOS 16 features you'd expect (the new iPhone software comes out on Sept. 12).

The iPhone 14 and 14 Plus also work with the new Apple Watch Series 8 (three models) and the AirPods Pro 2 earbuds. We breakdown everything announced for the iPhone 14 and 14 Plus including their price, features, colors, release date and more.


iPhone 14 and 14 Plus features and cameras

At first glance the new iPhone 14 might look just like the iPhone 13. Both iPhones feature outer casings similar to those of the iPhone 12 and iPhone 13 models, which were released in 2020 and 2021, respectively. Apple also made a bunch of minor improvements and added new features. The iPhone 14 packs a 6.1-inch display, while the iPhone 14 Plus has a 6.7-inch screen.

The iPhone 14 and 14 Plus have the same A15 Bionic chip from last year's iPhone 13 Pro and 13 Pro Max. Apple claims that the 14 and 14 Plus are 18% faster than the iPhone 13. Only the iPhone 14 Pro and 14 Pro Max will get the new A16 Bionic chip.

While Apple sold a smaller, Mini models of its main iPhone for the past two years, it did not introduce an iPhone 14 Mini on Wednesday.

In terms of photos and video, both phones feature a main camera with a larger updated 12-megapixel sensor and a wide-angle lens with a faster aperture that lets in more light. The iPhone 14's camera have a different method for processing photos called Photonic Engine.

The TrueDepth camera on the front gets a new faster f/1.9 aperture lens. Apple also added a new video stabilization mode, dubbed Action mode. It's designed to keep your videos looking smooth even when you're recording video while walking or moving around.
