![]() One thing Apple has ditched is the SIM card tray, specifically for US customers. Apple doesn't disclose battery capacity, though we do know the iPhone 14 Pro has had a capacity bump – likely to help compensate for that always-on display. The iPhone 14 Pro and Pro Max are powered by Apple's A16 Bionic chips, which promise competition-beating gaming and performance, and with 128GB through to 1TB of storage, the phones should pack plenty of space for files and photos.Īlthough many thought Apple was going to ditch the lightning connector in favour of a USB-C port, the new iPhone 14 series carries forward the proprietary charging tech for another year. Even when the phone's on standby, the screen stays partly illuminated, showcasing handy information you can customise. The new iPhones also introduce always-on displays, something we've had on Android phones for a while. And with crash detection, the new iPhones and Apple Watches can send an alert if you've been in a collision. The phones are also able to communicate with satellites when there's a broad clearing around you, so if you're out in the wilderness and don't have a signal, you can still communicate with emergency services. We've already touched on the Dynamic Island, which straddles both hardware and software updates. Running iOS 16, the new iPhones bring plenty of fun and useful flourishes to the hardware refresh. Climbing up to 2000 nits, easily seeing what's on-screen shouldn't be an issue even in the brightest environments. Apple trumped Samsung at its own game when it announced the new iPhones' brightness. ![]() With its smooth 120Hz refresh rate, the iPhone 14 Pro's menus glide, and thanks to HDR10 and Dolby Vision, content plays back with excellent tonal range. This resizing of the cutout is what makes it dynamic. OLEDs can display pure blacks, so when the interface around the cutout is black, it simply looks like the cutout has been expanded. It's the OLED technology in the 14 Pro and Pro Max that makes the Dynamic Island look like such an integrated part of the UI. The screen's an LTPO Super Retina XDR OLED panel, it has characteristics you'd expect from an OLED – depth, punch and pop, as well as quality you'd expect from Apple – excellent colour calibration. Like the Nothing Phone (1) and iPhone 13 line, the Pro has an even bezel surrounding the screen – attention to detail seldom seen outside Apple's camp. ![]() The iPhone 14 Pro has a manageable 6.1-inch touchscreen on the front, with rounded corners and that pill-shaped cutout at the top. ![]()
