  • iPhone 14 Pro Max has been out for almost one year or 358 days and after using it I share my experience with the iPhone 14 Pro Max. In this video I talk about iPhone 14 Pro Max durability, scratches, display, PWM, dynamic island, performance, battery life, battery health, cameras and more and help you decide if you should buy a new iPhone 14 Pro Max or wait for iPhone 15 Pro or iPhone 15 Pro Max. #iPhone14ProMax #iPhone #Apple #iOS17

    I use my iPhone 13 pro without case at home all the time, cause i love glass and stainless steel materials with perfect fit in my hand. When i go anywhere outdoors, i simply wear silicone case and iPhone still looks like new. When i put my iPhone on the surface indoors i simply put it on the screen protector as i can enjoy look of the iPhone ☺

    Yeah that couldn’t be me. I’ve always protected my expensive investments for years and my 14PM is no different. I slapped a case and tempered glass protector on it since day 1 I don’t take any chances.

      But that kind of neglects the point of buying a $1k tech just to cover it up. Companies spend lots of money and effort in development trying to perfect the finish on phones from how it feels to hold in your hands to how the screen will output content. Putting a case on it just disrespects the idea and everything that you own will eventually wear down so this case obsession I never really understood. Maybe financially, I get it, but it’s just contradictive to just slap a case on it when Apple took into consideration how the finish would feel in the hand. Also screen protectors could slightly modify the screen’s accuracy in colour or so, maybe not too big of a deal for people but def is for professionals

    Good to hear that the crash detection works - but glad you weren't hurt too badly. I have had my 14 PM for about 4 months now and I love it. Works like a trooper and there are no complaints at all from me. I was running the beta of iOS 17 and now the final version. I like standby mode and use it frequently. Had considered getting the 15 PM, but I changed my mind and got a Mujjo case for it instead. Quite disappointed to hear that Apple stopped making the leather cases, however the ones by Mujjo are better quality anyway I believe.

    I currently have the 12. One reason I didn’t consider any of the pro models is the extra weight of the stainless steel. Don’t really care of the material since I always put my phones in a case. Now with 15 Pro I’m liking that it’s titanium and lighter. 😊

    Again a good quality video from you! Personally I could never use a phone without a case and screenprotector haha. Really don’t want scratches on my Iphone 14 Pro. Also the battery is indeed not what I expected. Mine is stil at 91 but my previous phones were all 98/99. Furthermore I’m very satisfied with it. Can’t wait for the Iphone 15 unboxings on your channel!

    Considering that I’m watching this, while having the iPhone X, with no case and screen protector, the non Ceramic Shield looks bad. It was a hand me down from my brother, and he used it since day 1 with a case and tempered glass. Roughly 1 year later, and there’s a few scratches on the glass. Looks good as of now.

  • @viperchrisz4

    Did the same here with my 14PM. Made the whole year with 100% battery health and without a case save for a couple times I knew I’d be kayaking or something. Not a single scratch thankfully!

    I bought my 14 Pro Max this January and within few weeks it started having heavy scratches around the charging port area. I love my phone's hardware but the software iOS 16 is buggy. The battery most of the time charges very slowly, sometimes stops charging showing a temperature warning, even when it the air conditioner is on and the phone is enough cool. I use my phones very heavily so iPhone is the only hardware I trust to go with. This time pricing in India is too much for 15 pro max, so don't think I will be upgrading this year at least.

  • @thinkpadherrenrasse4334
    @thinkpadherrenrasse4334 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I jumped to 14 pro 2 weeks ago because i lost my 12 and what can i say is that i dont feel any performance bump at all. Guess 2 years of tech improvement isnt selling enough to justify an upgrade for me (i dont do games or editing videos). Only noticeable upgrade is the 120 hz screen. Was rooting on the dynamic island but it didnt do much on my use case. It is significantly heavier tho.
    Edit: forgot to mention that the main camera is insane compared to 12. Loved the bokeh and how it performs on low light.

    I’ve had my 14 pro since release and my battery’s life 89%. Everything else is fine though screen and side casing flawless but I do use case and screen protector so that’s probably why. Battery very often does not last me a day so that’s the only thing wrong but I still love it.

    I have had my 14 pro max for nearly a year as well & im still sitting at 100% I got it in early November late October but I followed your tips with charging once I’m at 20% & I turn off my phone everything night. I also limit my use on it which is a good thing. Thanks for that Battery video! I’ll probably skip the 15 pro max & wait another 4 years or so to update.

    I’m now at 96

    my iphone 12 I got at launch. Thought about getting the 12 pro but thought it wasn’t worth it..I was right. Gonna wait for the iphone 16 to come out to even consider upgrading. The main downside with my 12 is that the camera quality goes to garbage when zooming in, and the screen isn’t bright enough. It’s enough if you’re standing in the shade, but when you’re in direct sunlight you can’t see anything

    I’ve had my pro max almost a year the 21st will be a year and I have 99% battery life and I’ve been loving using it and the dynamic island was really easy to get used to I like it for my timer when I take my lunch at work where I can watch TH-cam and easily keep up with how much time I have left on break. I use a case by a company called Urban Armour Gear and it has 25 feet of drop protection and gas Kevlar woven into the case. Great video as always and looking forward to iOS 17 and watchOS 10 releasing on Monday. Question do you think they’ll update the design of the Apple Watch next year for the 10 series? They changed the design on the iPhone 10 and the iPad 10 last year so hopefully maybe the Watch will get a makeover too

    It’s not the AOD display itself that takes up battery. It’s the widgets. The weather widget especially. I use AOD alone with no widgets, and it lasts me all day on my 14 Pro, with decent usage. Always on display is too nice for me to give up. Just remove the weather widget because that makes your phone constantly update your location for the weather. You will see instant differences. I noticed this because when I added the weather widget to my aod display a while back I immediately noticed the drop in battery and removed it quickly.

    I have a 13 256GB Pro Max which was a good camera upgrade from the 11 256GB Pro Max whose antenna stopped working, otherwise I might still be using it. The 13 256GB Pro Max with 94% battery life performs flawlessly. Keeping the the battery usage in check is key to getting more battery time out of a heavy use day or light. My default is dark mode which is a massive battery drain saver, kill unnecessary background processes, screen brightness .etc. Giving me anywhere from 1 full day to 2+ days of unplugged usage. I’d buy the 15 256GB Pro Max for the camera porn. Otherwise as usual Apple’s hype comes up short, maybe next year. Maybe the so called “Ultra” will be a game changer. That being said I’m very well served by my current 13 Pro Max.

    Should I upgrade from the 14 Pro to the 15 Pro or 15 Pro Max? Currently, I have the iPhone 14 Pro Space Black 256GB which has scrolling stuttering, battery life is bad, it has lags in the Camera app and some games and overheating issues. Battery and Camera are the most important things for me and I used a 12PM before which was too big and heavy to use, but now there is the lighter Titanium material and the curved edges make it feel more comfortable to use. So therefore, should I still chose the 15 Pro Max over the 15 Pro this year? Also, is 256Gb enough? And, which color would you choose?

  • @loulevin2064

    The iPhone 14 Pro Max has definitely been the best iPhone I’ve ever had. Yes battery life is terrible and my battery health should be in the 90 % area but it’s not. I don’t do betas or jailbreak or any of that but it’s very disappointing. Eventually I’ll have to have the battery replaced. I hope iOS 17 may possibly fix the issue. I charge my phone every night and I can definitely go all day and into the night before it gets low by any means. I personally see no reason to upgrade.
    Although I am excited about the new iPad Pros and I hear a 15” model is rumored to be coming as my gen 4 iPad Pro is my main computer I use for my needs.

    I have the 14plus and I'm very happy with my phone. I was looking for a big screen but the weight difference between the 14plus and the 14pro max was the reason why I got the 14plus. I didn't care about the extra camera or the dancing island or 120hz refresh rate. For me that rush that I felt when I had the 14plus in my hand. I mean and I still feel it to this day....to me it is so well balanced, it feels so nice in the hand. I love how long the battery lasts on the phone and the speakers the sound is incredible. In my experience with the 14plus this phone does not get hot. I believe is because of the chipset. I'm not a gamer and I'm not on beta version. I'm in the latest public release. I believe that the 5G connection on the apple phones is some times a little weak and that it has to do with the chips that apple makes, I'm not saying that it is bad but some times I get little reception while I get full reception with my S22 Ultra side by side and I'm convinced of this. Now that so many people complain about the 14pro max getting hot I got my suspicion that it is that the 16 chip runs hot. That the 5G reception being some times a little weak is something that no update can fix. But overall my experience with the 14plus has been fantastic!! I love my 14plus. I'm OK with the lighting cable. The battery is on 94 %. I got at release day. I really like this 14plus. I won't update, no need to. Might sound silly and redundant, I love my 14 plus and I enjoy watching Zollotech no one compares to him, his work is outstanding. Thank you Mr Zollotech for your dedication. Have a blessed day.😊

    Haha, I finally ran out of luck with my iPhone 14 Pro last week. Slipped out of my pocket and crashed onto the concrete. My first Applecare+ claim! Unfortunately, it was not a good experience, as neither my local Best Buy or Apple Store had the back glass in stock. I had to do a full express replacement. Also, they apparently won't service an iPhone if it's running the beta, so that had to be dealt with also. Still... I'm a caseless girl most of the time.

    I used to be an obsessive screen protector guy, but whatever new glass Apple started using in the iPhone 12/13 era was finally perfect. I’ve had my 13 mini since launch day without a screen protector, I’ve dropped it, tossed it into bags carelessly, walk around with it in my pocket and fanny pack along with my keys, and there is not one single microabrasion on this screen. It’s flawless. I’m a 8 hours+ screen time a day kind of guy too, so having a flawless screen is something I care deeply about. I know others aren’t as bold, but you truly don’t need a screen protector anymore

    My iPhone 14 ProMax battery life and health (still 100%) have been excellent. I agree that your use of the beta software has probably not been your battery's best friend. But let's not forget, the iPhone 13 Pro Max and 14 Pro Max have very different max screen brightness. I think this accounts for much of the difference in battery life some people are experiencing. DisplayMate found that the ‌iPhone 14 Pro‌ Max is able to hit a peak brightness of 2,300 nits, more than double the ‌iPhone 13‌ Pro Max's 1000 nit max brightness. (Apple advertises 2,000 nits peak brightness for the 14 ProMax, so the testing exceeded even Apple's guidelines.) The more you use your iPhone 14 ProMax in bright light environments, the bigger the hit on battery life compared to the 13 ProMax since it will spend more time with the screen at higher brightness levels.

    The biggest problem is annoying lens switch upon getting even remotely close to some object. It switches to ultra wide camera which results in the loss of quality. Other than that, good phone.

    I hate scratches on my screens so I always use a protector but I go both caseless and put a case on. So my 14 Pro has been holding up very well, minus a small scuff at the back top left corner. My BH is at 95% so I'm doing quite well.
    However, my 14 Pro will be the only Pro model I'll get as I dont use the cameras much and the features I got the 14 Pro for as now om the regular 15. I rarely used the AOD.
    I'll keep my iPhone for another year before upgrading as I dont buy new phones every year but 2-3.
    Thanks for all your work, Aaron. Always enjoy your content.

    Currently have the 14 Pro Max. I've had it since launch day with a case ON it, and somehow mine has worse scratches that yours. Especially at the top around the speaker and down by the charging port. Charging port I expected, but the scratches along the top drive me crazy whenever I remove my case to clean. My favourite iPhone was hands down the XS Max. I honestly wish I kept it longer.

    For the first time since switching to the first Plus/Max iPhone in 2014 iPhone 6 I decided to go back to the normal size Pro. Owning the iPhone 13 Pro Max for two years. I have enjoyed it but never got used to the heavy weight.. So even with iPhone 15 Pro lineup going all titanium. I decided to get something more pocketable and easier to use one handed… so Normal size iPhone 15 Pro + being lighter due to titanium is a bonus for me.. 😁😅

    iPhone 14 Pro Max is a great smartphone. I haven't had battery draining issues like everyone seems to be complaining about. I use my phone up to 6 hours or 7 hours per day and haven't really seen horrible battery drainage. My battery health is still at 100% as well. The thing I don't really like about the 14 Pro Max is the excessive weight. I'll be selling it soon and likely getting the blue iPhone 15 regular model. Best iPhone by far for me has been the iPhone 11. Still have it.

    My 14 Pro Max somehow developed faint scuff marks (in the glass itself) within a month of purchase. Phone was always in its own pocket with nothing else, and in a case that raises the screen off the desk. Over the last year they just multiplied like crazy, but no deep scratches. Very disappointing considering the Apple Store employees told me I didn't need a protector.
    Also the oleophobic coating wore out significantly in the keyboard area of the screen, making a visible blemish as well as the scuffs.
    Never again. I've pre-ordered a Zagg screen protector for my 15 Pro Max and will apply it as the first thing I do after unboxing it.
