For anyone who's been waiting up late to see this video, thank you SO MUCH! It really means a LOT! ❤ To check out the Tesla Electro Phone: th-cam.com/video/uPxkrGL0l7U/w-d-xo.html Or to see Xiaomi's Next-Gen Foldable Phone: th-cam.com/video/a0zrnEnUiYo/w-d-xo.html
iPhone 14 literally came out like 9 hours ago and Arun with his team already managed to create such a well made video in such a short time. Or there might also be a possibility that he got an early access to the iPhone 14 a while before the event. Because he is a big tech channel. But still very Impressive.
i mean, he probably already have iphone 14 for review purpose since a week ago. it's not that uncommon for brands to lend devices to reviewers a week before launch.
The biggest downside of the new iPhones is the pricing in Europe. I mean the normal 14/plus cost 999€/1149€ and the Pro/Max cost 1299/1449€ which is about a 200€ bump from last year across the whole lineup. Thats gonna make the iPhones sell even less in Europe as we already have significant price bumps in every day life such as electricity, gas and so on. Im really mad at Apple that they didn't say that in the event, because i was so glad that the price stayed at 999/1099$ but seems it didn't account for Europe.
I just don‘t get how they actually demand 1300€ for the base model pro phone. Even considering inflation, a 200€ bump to last year is just ridiculous. Ignoring that you still don‘t get a charger with that price tag. That‘s gonna be a hard sell in europe…
Most people don't buy phones outright there tied into contracts for the next 2-3 years. They won't see that additional price. Plus consider the launch prices of the note and ultra line up supersede the pro max by another 200
I love how this guy explains things with complete rationality and objectivity. This gives reliable insights to consumers without much knowledge with technicalities of such stuff and everything he says makes a total sense. Keep it up!
@@victor5.- if he likes iphones a lil bit more, what does that say though? since it’s someone who’s tried and tested so many phones for years? this year i got myself my first iphone, iphone13 and holy fuck is it smooth and efficient, all the androids don’t even compare. and don’t even get me started on samsung, my phone of 5 yrs is so slow and laggy for literally no reason. it never broke and it was always treated nice. i’ve had a macbook for 5 years now and it works super smooth and well. reason why i decided to try an iphone too. the feel and quality of it is just BETTER what can i say. the only issue i have is the too closed eco system, but as a physical device it’s the goddamn best.
I love how Arun is brutally honest with everything he says. If companies try to hide something that us viewers tend to not spot out, the boss will know what's going on. This is why I am subscribed to you Arun. You're just amazing with everything you do and speak. Your content is on another level 🚀!!! 1hr 30min livestream condensed to a 12 mins video is just bonkers! Love the rick roll as well (classic). Looking forward to seeing you get your hands on this new iPhone 14 series, can't wait to see the camera and battery test. Thank you.
@@blue0856 iphones are WAY better than androids in certain ways, but then androids are WAY WAY better at things iphones can't even do, so its just a never ending war, and only is upto you to decide
Always did, but there's zombie people that changed phones every year, but in this opportunity the price is so high, that all of the sudden realize the obvious.
2-3 years? I've had my iPhone X since it came out 5 years ago and have no issues with it. You don't need to upgrade your iPhone until the performance has notably decreased and replacing the battery is not worth it.
@@carpediemearth same here, still got iPhone X and very satisfied. I told myself two years ago that I won’t upgrade unless new model will blow my mind. Well, performance is still amazing, prob will carry it out until the end of the phone days :))
As a cell phone salesman, 80% of the customers who come through my door come in because their iPhone 8-X has stopped working. They want the base model of the newest iPhone. Usually they ask "what iPhone are we on now?" They usually don't even bother asking about the price. To a very large majority of the US market, the iPhone is the only smartphone available, and there is only one of them every year.
@Cuffs imo the os is just untouchable in reliability for everyday use for me, android just doesnt have that nice optimization for example the, battery.
Well it is cheaper though but more importantly hand campatibility. My woman friend is very very satified with her iphone 12 mini. She is a petite person so physically mini is very compatible with her hand
I do appreciate how Arun and his team try to elevate every video. I remember the simplicity of editing they are doing before he reached 1M and looking how dynamic these new videos he produce. Congrats man.
Disagree, all the editing is actually overused. Less is more, good lighting and framing goes a much longer way. All of the pop up graphics are very annoying
@@tears2040 TBH, I love them (as a editor for 10 years, if that helps lol). Ofc you're entitled to your own opinion, but they're certainly not objectively overused. I can definitely understand feeling that way tho-- it's definitely a fine line but I personally like them.
It still comes down to your own preference and taste. Some might not like it but there are also subscribers that do love the new editing and knowing how hard every single video to edit and produce in a specific time frame is very time consuming. I salute them for the effort they put into
I agree whole heartedly with “The Ugly” I told my brother to wait on getting us 13 pro max two months ago because the 14 was gonna come out. And that even if he didn’t want the 14, the 13 would be $100 less for basically the same thing (or similar enough things that he wouldn’t the upgrade for the extra price)
@@etothej On their website? Apple takes off the Pro/Pro Max models so they can get people to buy the newest P/PM models. If you want the 13 pro or pro max you'd have to get it second hand.. or from a reseller like BestBuy.
I really like your take on what apple is doing. Basically, mom is frustrated with her phone all the time because she doesn't understand that she actually did need the super pro version to make it worth while. This makes her quit trying to be tech savvy and that leads to her being not tech savvy and that leads her to not understanding that she is getting ripped off by spending 800 instead of 1200 for what should be the same phone just a little smaller that fits her hand and pocket better.
It’s amazing how they can make things look like they’re leaps and bounds better when they’re not. I’m quite happy with my 13 pro max. The saving grace for iPhones was a 120hz display. That’s it, that’s all the iPhone needed to feel amazing. Going to android then coming back to my iPhone always felt shitty because my iPhone at the time had a 60hz display and I was adjusted to the 120hz of my S21 Ultra. Once the 13 pro released in green, I had to have it. This will be my phone for a good long time. I doubt it will get sluggish anytime soon
Exactly even i am happy with my 13 pro max. I mean they calling them huge leaps are like very small upgrades. Probably will upgrade my iphone when 17 or 18 pro comes out
you're totally right, and for a person that hasn't experienced more than 90hz screen display (like me), you can even go older, my xr works just fine, i have enough 128GB space it never fills, the camera is fair enough and it feels as fast as newest iphones, sure thing i'll miss stuff like pro motion since it would be my first ever time trying a high refresh rate screen (i know im a caveman but in less than a year i was rocking with my iphone 7 plus lmao), when i get the change i'll definitely get one of those 120hz iphones. i did tried 90HZ screen, it wasn't good enough bc apple has that thing of the screen shows 60hz but its definitely recognizing 90hz, no biggie and that phone had a worse chipset so the apps opened faster on my iphone and it definitely got obliterated in games, it was an oneplus, don't exactly know the model but it definitely wasn't one of the flagships like oneplus 7T or whatever it was a mid range phone.
I have a feeling that many people will not use the always on display, due to it giving the impression that the display is not off, and as such, they might feel that their phone is always running even when they hit the power button. With other phones, the screen goes black, showing that the phone has turned off, and THEN a small image appears on screen, leaving the rest black. It is the same thing with e-ink displays, people feel much more comfortable when their screen displays all white ("off") instead of just whatever they last had on the screen, or something like a picture.
This isn't really an accurate comparison, because an E-ink displays are bi-stable, you could drive an image to an e-ink display, and then gut all the electronics out of the system, and the picture would remain. It's consuming no power and doing no processing. When you have an "always on display" on a phone like this it *is* "turned on", the processors are running, checking for inputs, checking the sensors for if it's put in your pocket etc. The display *is* still running, it's putting power to the backplane and emitting photons.
@@SocksAndPuppets Do you know how much more battery is consumed? Without this data, how can one provide a valid, objective analysis? (The processor is always running, whether the screen is on or off.)
@@ANTH0NY.VII. Just because phone tasks are very lightweight, so there isn't much difference, but the good thing about having an overpowered chipset is it will last much more without slowing down.
Features Android has had for years, but when Apple does it, it's somehow "revolutionary". I've never seen a company manipulate their users as much as Apple does. If iPhone users spent five mins looking at Samsung phones they'd realize how bad they're being hoodwinked. I had always on display on my Lumia in 2015. Almost a full decade later Apple finally gets around to adding it to their iPhones and people think they're geniuses? SMH unreal.
What you mentioned as "The Ugly" is precisely what will stop me from buying the iPhone 14. I was expecting a notch design change and we got it! But only for the pro versions, which is a major disappointment from my point of view. I'd already decided to buy the 14 as my 1st iPhone ever, but I just dropped that decision and am staying in Android world. I mean: I can buy an used 13 pro max (with new battery) for less than 1200€, so what's the point in buying a new 14 base model for 1040€? To have the same design, same chipset, but possibly worse camera set? Bad, bad move, Apple. Android it (still) is.
u can buy the 13 base model if u really want to get into the ecosystem. 599 is not a bad offer if you want (last year's) flagship phone with good camera that can compete even with the current android flagship. it's a better deal than the s21 FE. id always have an android phone with 1-2 year old flagship chip as my big gaming phone and an iphone with 1-2 year tech as my phone for e-bankings and emails.
Well, the iPhone 14 is better than the older phones... of course. But I would rather buy an iPhone 13, cause it's cheaper, and it's not much of a difference compared to the normal iPhone 14.
Yep, I'm just going to hold onto my XS Max - still does everything I need! The iPhone events were once so exciting but we've hit a point where cool tech upgrades/ new designs can't be year after year. Should Apple release next gen iPhones 2 yearly instead? I think yes :)
They never will because a huge majority of people buy the new one every single year. It's all about money and when you have a customer base that doesn't even think before spending over a thousand dollars why would you not drop a new one every year
I 100% agree. You don’t even have the time to enjoy your brand new iPhone 13 pro that the leaks for the next model come out the day after you bought it. It’s not even good for the environment. You may remove chargers from packagings, but launching useless phones every single year pollutes more imo
@@vplanet8085 apple is regarded for their security because they have the least market share less than %10, hackers want money too, they target the biggest market
Not an iPhone user but you still make among the best content out there that covers all the bases! Good to know just how large (or incremental) the changes are, as well as that Pro vs regular option change. Obviously only so much you can improve on phones now and it's showing a bit. But still, definitely some nice things shown here as well as some quirks.
Unless you're going for the Pro lineup, there's very little incentive to get the iPhone 14. It makes more sense, especially financially, to get a second hand iPhone 13 Pro/Max. Myself, I'm switching back to Apple, and I waited for last night's keynote, but it only reinforced that I won't be going for the 14 model. Not to mention, that where I live, Sweden, new iPhones are around 40% more expensive than launch US prices.
In the US for now atleast they lowered the prices of all the phones expect rhe 13 pro and 13 pro max. The 13 is lowered . The 13 pro and 13 pro max is the same price as the 14 pro and 14 pro max 😤 but that’s if you buy it from official places.
My 14pro max has been good to me so far. Switched from android and it’s been an interesting change… but happy so far. Mainly battery life and camera has been what I am liking the most.
Upgrading from the XR to the 14 Pro Max which for me is a huge upgrade and the dynamic island reminds me of the MacBook pro touch bar which is hopefully a sign that apple is still trying to keep features like this alive.
that always-on display transition you talking in iphone, it stays in the lock screen which turns on screen brighter, pixel also has neat transition, when lock button is pressed the clock numbers get thicker and the lock screen comes and vice- versa there is no abrupt transition like you showed, its neat, and if you are locking/unlocking directly, they have changed it from last year to transit the way which the phone is locked/unlocked(fingerprint transition, lock button transition etc.)
Incredible how small Samsung cutouts are vertically compared to apple, I know we have Face ID but The screen is miles away from the camera and sensors, and because of that even more usable screen area is lost, I am already missing the notch, if the regular 14 had promotion would be a easy buy for me.
3:40: absolutely, i’m on an iphone 13 pro and the battery headroom is excellent. i can very easily keep it between 30 and 80% with only charging it for about an hour each day, and if i need more i can simply fully charge it and it shouldn’t get below 20% before i get home, even with full brightness and light mode most of the time
I have an iPhone 13 Pro, so using GPS as a driver ,making some phone calls, listening to music connected to the car battery will last for around 6 hours,even less and that's with battery saver mode on, without will last around 4 hours.
@@rayquazahere8529 iphone 12 pro also has the dimming issues, I'm convinced that almost all iphones after the Xs will be having this problem. And, for the 12 pro it would heat up fairly fast when browsing/downloading on data or just shooting long videos.
Yeah, I definitely have a couple problems with this year‘s phones. But my biggest being them getting rid of the Sim card and switching to eSIM. Really just not a good idea. Anyone agree?
I don’t know why this needs to be said again, but here goes. Apple don’t do anything just because someone else has done it. Apple do things when they can do them well, does it mean they’re late to the party a lot of the time, sure, but the features they bring are normally fairly mature and well thought out by time they do release them. I say all of this as a pixel owner, but I recognise apples strategy of “do it right, not twice”
@@TheTactialLlama You are completely wrong. There is nothing like doing perfectly once. Then why u call the Iphone 14 an upgrade to iphone 13 and again upgrade to 12, doesnt mean doing more than twice, as apple always says the latest model is better than previous model
@@indmill2136 There's a distinct difference between doing something and doing something well. Apple choose the latter. Obviously tech moves on and things improve but Apple don't often implement things that are half baked. Do Apple always get it right. Nope. But they don't dilly dally from one concept to another.
Arun's Excellence is unmatched! So much to learn from him. I celebrate your effort and sacrifice towards creating contents. You are not just raising the standard - you are the STANDARD! More grace to you!
Apple don't "wait until they can do something really well". You really think they couldn't have implemented this exact always on display years ago? They hold features back as long as possible so they can maximise their earning potential. This comes from lack of competition in that a lot of people will only ever buy an iPhone, so it doesn't need feature parity to Android phones. It's the same as with USB-C...if you're going to buy an iPhone regardless, then why should they change it?
Sure, but if people stopped buying iPhones because it doesn't have USB-C then They would sure as hell change it. Besides, I'm not entirely sure that MFI wouldn't still be a thing and make them even more money with USB-C, since users would have to upgrade their old peripherals...and it would allow for higher power transfer and data speeds so you could have a much wider range of add-on devices. The thing is, phone just aren't getting much better year on year these days, so anything Apple can hold on to and release further down the line the better for them. It's incredibly anti-consumer, and yet people still buy iPhones.
Yes except in 2018 when most phones started having aod they drained battery And apple waited until they were able to change the refresh rate to 1hz so it wouldnt drain ur battery almost at all
Finally, Apple now has given their iPhone 14 pro MAX a action mode which stabilizes the camera when taking action shots or shooting videos. This is what I need in my 13 pro.
Even worse than your last point: By removing the iPhone mini, they took away another reason for some people to have an iPhone...those people who did not enjoy the large screens (like my sister, who is still using 1st--Gen iPhone SEs). There are those who don't need a big screen for their usecases.
Mini was just an enticement for android users to try ios. And now they're trying to rank up those pitched users. And yes, they don't really care about their users. If it's not profitable, scrap them.
Exactly. Also in my opinion the 5.4" iPhone 12/13 mini could have simply been marketed as a standard iPhone (not mini), with the 6.1" iPhone as Plus, and of course keeping the 6.7" iPhone as Max.
This channel is not just the epitome of tech youtube, but youtube in general. The information shared, endless creativity and top notch dedication really makes me feel guilty for watching this for free. Every video is fantastic, thank you Arun.
Another issue that was glossed over is the fact that there is no physical sim tray. At least on the US models. So international travel now gets much more complicated. Many countries don't use esims and esim as a whole is no where near as quick and easy to set up as simply buying a disposable sim in the country that you're visiting and popping it in your phone. So now your options are buy an expensive international plan with your carrier or hope that the country you're visiting supports it.
Now everyone is hating Apple for not implementing an Sim Tray, 1-2 Years later Samsung and every other Smartphone manufacturer will follow them. Like the Headphonejack. eSim is just the future.
@@greemura_7056 the thing is, its useless if people cant use their phone to call, so they wont follow unless they earn the benefit which right now there are more problems than benefits
@@greemura_7056 samsung already has esim support and some other companies so if they were to go ahead with it, it would be a time where esims are useable everywhere. how much will it save them? barely anything, if that. not worth the hate these companies will get if they do that
I am an iPhone user and have been since the iPhone 3G, I see more positives than negatives in this review and it’s actually been a few years since I upgraded so this will actually be a jump for me if I get the new phone
This is exactly what Jerry rig said about the Samsung z fold 4 while roasting apple at the same time. He expressed his concern at how These two companies are now just repackaging materials, bumping them up a percentage or two in "efficiency" then selling them at full price. Then comes the "new features" which in truth, the previous phones could also get via software updates but they either don't release that update to earlier phones or release it really late.
It's worth pointing out that Jerry also blamed apple for this. Apple allowed other manufacturers to relax with innovation, since people apparently don't care about it, they just care about the name of the product. As Jerry, I also have a Samsung Note 10+ and my only issue is the battery not lasting as it used to, for which I can compensate with the super fast charging

@@psyche234 And that's why Samsung has the best phone and Apple is dependent on it for iPhone releases, changing nothing between generations but small details which are as big as Samsungs monthly free updates.
Honestly the iPhone 14 is just an iPhone 13S I said the same thing in 2020, the 12 was really just an 11S with flat sides. Apple stopped the whole " 'S' year schedule", but really just changed their naming and hoped no one would notice
I just want to thank apple again for being the first to take away all of the things I loved in phones (SD card, 3.5mm headphone jack, removable battery) but also still being about five generations behind nearly any other company at introducing basic technology (action video modes, 4k video, always-on). That's what makes a true winner, tricking people into being willing to pay more money for less product.
Since when that iPhones has SD card and removable battery ! And the first phone in the world who came with the 4K video future is 8+ you have a very bad knowledge bro
@@digzo77 wow you're trolling hard for a company that is firmly settled in your behind. thanks for the fake news, but 4k was from Sony, with Apple only introducing it years behind all their competitors. The point is that they are consistently the first to remove popular features, and the last to add them in, yet their prices are staggeringly high. OLED three years behind the competition and that giant hole for the selfie cameras are two more examples of how other than on chipsets, Apple is the China of the tech world, big on sales but always several generations behind.
Apple have been doing the “features limiting” trick since Apple II computer. Just ask Woz, he had disagreements over that with Jobs almost from day one. Woz wanted to include every option possible and than some in Apple’s computers and Jobs wanted to include only what was necessary and than charge extra for the extra features. Tim Cook as Jobs’s disciple continues with this strategy even more. Also worth noting he is not an Apple’s visionary like Jobs was, but comes from supply chain management… so there’s that too (profit over form)
@@conradofmc_ny6706 it’s not a matter of opinion, it is a fact. Innovation has nothing to do with Apple’s sleazy marketing schemes . I suggest you read Steve Wozniak book “iWoz” and interviews with former Apple employees. Jobs was a visionary but with an a-hole attitude

@@ariali2378 not really. i would say its because huawei has a sketchy history, but so does apple. in reality, its just because USA, and a certain strangely coloured man, had some problems with china, so they decided to cut ties with chinese phone makers so china's economy would suffer more (this was only one of a dozen things usa did against chinese companies).

No One, but no one will ever generate the excitement to near fever pitch, like Steve Jobs did. Apple has changed a lot, and not for the better in many ways.
I don’t know if anyone else has ever said this (I’m sure they have) but Arun, you are a LIFE SAVER for people like me who work at a phone store. I loved your content at first bc I’m a nerd and like learning about tech, but once I began working in cell phone sales your break downs of the newest releases has helped me so much when customers ask for what separates the phones from each other.
Thanks for pointing out that many features of iPhones are “perfected”(outdated) and Apple doesn’t add them until they feel they have to, or else they won’t if they don’t think the majority of their users will notice.
@Daniel Olortegui Its okay when the fans or users (of phones) do it, but its so annoying and infuriating when these youtube tech reviewers do it. ie Like Marques and Arun acting as if that pill thing is the greatest thing ever when its so clearly a gimmic.

“Wait until their current phone stops working, and then upgrade to whatever happens to be the base model of the latest models of the time.” God, that is so true. Literally hit the nail with a hammer. Hell, this is what I did 5 months back. My iPhone 6s, as great as it was, finally started getting worn down after years, so I finally upgraded to the iPhone 13 base (well Mini actually cuz I like compact phones).
honestly i feel like thats what most people do. Unless youre fairly well off, really big on tech, or making very poor financial decisions i think thats kind of the default. I love apple and their products but it does kind of suck that theyre trying to exploit the average person by sucking as much money from them as they possibly can.
I am not well off. but I actually upgrade my phone once or twice a year. I'm just never satisfied, especially when it comes to Android phones. I love Android, but there is always a couple things with every single Android phone that annoys the living shit out of me. With iphone? No...I honestly can't say that there is anything that annoys me.
I always used to get mad at people saying apple is just re releasing the same phone but with a higher price, but now I have to agree with them. The thing I am most worried about is the non pros getting less updates though
@@JD-roxand the manufacturing price got slightly more expensive also, if they can keep the price the same it's cause the profits expected are more. they are probably expecting more since they are thinking a significantly more amount of people will fall in love with the notch and dry up the whole stock instantly.

Apple Music forcefully stops playing any other entertainment source when it connects to Bluetooth. Having a zoom capability more than 3x (I use my camera a lot for work and need to zoom in more than what the 13 PM does). Yea they are coming out with it now but since Apple is always late to their own funeral, I have to say that I’ve always missed an always on display. Now the good!!!

Flat screen opposed to curved. The body… damn is this classic iPhone 4 body sexy. Camera is a tight battle but Apple seems to have the better software.

Same here. I only got the iPhone 13 Pro Max because the S22 Ultra wasn’t in stock. Out of disappointment, I bought the 13 pro max on an impulse. Regret it greatly. I’ve been using iPhones for a long time but made the switch to Samsung in 2019, never regretted it one bit. The iPhone 13 Pro Max is severely OP but honestly Apple’s software keeps it limited.

I absolutely love how brutally honest & transparent you are, & I especially love the way you thoroughly broke everything down. I just stumbled upon your channel & love the way you kept my attention in how you worded everything, so I subscribed 😊 Thank you so much for all the helpful insight, I appreciate you!!!
Even though I'm not an apple fan (don't own a single apple product) I still find these videos interesting - but it's made me realise how much of a muchness phones are these days, it just comes down to what ecosystem you prefer ultimately.
The fact that they look the same from the back is just bad because 10/9 people I know brag about their new phones and spending 2k€ on a phone that none will notice is a drag 😑
I love my iPhone 12 alot… and I’m most likely going to have it atleast another year maybe two….i am a little jealous…. Shout out to my old Galaxy S8 i had before this that I never thought i would get rid of and I was always going to get the new one 🤷🏼 i am mad at myself that i sold that thing though…. I miss it. Was so beautiful and such a great display. That phone was ahead of its time imo! Great video as always Arun!!!
I still have the S8 as my backup phone; I think it's the most beautiful phone ever produced, which is why I'm never selling mine. My main phone is a Note 10 btw, which I think is the 2nd most beautiful phone ever produced :)
The removal of the sim card tray is like the removal of the headphone Jack from the iPhone 7. I know that Carriers probably pressured apple to drop the sim card tray because it hurts their bottom line for upgrades. I upgraded from a 6s to a 13 pro and I feel justified in my purchase since the 14 and 14 pro are like the 13 and 13 pro with barely enough to justify upgrades. Just buy a 13 pro and save some money from a 14 pro. It will get the same year of support as the base model 14
I work in wireless sales and SIM cards are hard to track and it’s a loss in money for them mainly than anything else it was an easy cost they could cut out while also pressuring consumers to buy multiple phones rather than swap a sim out.
Only the US is getting shaft*d like this with 0 sims, and here I thought a single sim was already hard to accept. For those not familiar, regulations in some countries require dual sim capability and for this reason, iPhones manufactured in mainland China, Hong Kong, and Macau have dual nano-sims. Voluntarily, in order to stay competitive, a lot of OEMs market dual-sim capable phones in Asia. More consumer protections are needed in the USA, but I'm not holding my breath. With Apple owning over 50% of the US mobile market share all to themselves, they have 0% incentive to be competitive since it seems like being more restrictive under the guise of 'convenience and security', instead of providing flexibility, is actually working in their favor.
That’s AMAZING how bright the screen gets, especially outside. So your phone will thermal throttle 3x faster and your display will be unusable that much faster. And you guessed it apple blocks you from turning it off. My note 9 gets much brighter than my current 13 pro max will ever get outside of quickly checking the time.
Thanks for being an honest....NOT many iphone reviews are .....if you must have an iphone, the best thing would be to just buy last year's phone at a discount because their basically the same phones ......
Never liked the way Apple do stuff, but I have to admit that they're the greatest genius of all time: they can present the same things every year and everyone's still going to buying them. I think that now the only really cool smartphone are the foldable, otherwise they're all quite similar...
folable is decades ago how is it cool now? Apple making the prices high for phones that arent pro and have less feats is funny cuz people are stupid anyways, but the pro phones are trash like their colors
Hey Arun, could you please test the iPhone 14‘s internet tethering abilities? On my 13 ProMax it only allowes 600 MByte of traffic via cable tethering (tested with at least five different SIM cards and eSIM of course). Apple is not willing to help here. I’d love it, if you could test this with Mac/Windows/Linux PCs. Being not able to run your own office on the go is a real pain in the ass.
September is the most awaited month in every year for this channel and for Apple fanbase. Thanks Arun for uploading these kinds of content. It means a lot to the tech community! By the way, I am a huge fan from the Philippines!
The chip situation is actually more complicated than explained here. What they said about the competition still not having caught up with the A13 is not true in any way, literally Mediatek has made one that can compete (but admittedly probably not beat) the A15 from last year, let alone the A13. The A15 for the 14s also wasn't the same chip from last year; they took the one from last year's pros (which as the video says was better) and bumped them up a bit for the non-pros, and the A15 from last year was already way more than necessary for most people
yes and no. mediatek and qualcomm CPUs do not beat apple's. mediatek (arm mali) and qualcomm GPUs do beat apple's. nowadays, GPU-accelerated processing is becoming the new norm, and that is why qualcomm and mediatek are focusing on these alot more, and its why there isnt a real performance difference between the two in general usage. also, qualcomm may get into the business of custom CPU design, to increase power efficiency. sidenote: apple isnt honest with their marketing at all, so i dont know why you expect this to be any different. (think Privacy. That's iPhone.)
Yeah but credit where its due , if apple had not pulled of those moves i don’t think they could keep the same prices , bloody inflation is so bad everywhere ... everyday life like fuel coffee gym memberships .... even star bucks increased the price , and doritos or chips or cornflakes we buy even tho they are same prices the size is reduced sort of deceiving... I am personally happy the prices are the same. then again I don’t even upgrade every year .
A bit surprised to not see any mention of the SIM card tray removal in the US version. Hoping it doesn’t cause an issue with international travel, and it makes swapping sims between android and iPhone a pain, even when they both have eSIM support.
@@rodrigojds yeah, looks like the same situation with Southeast Asia, where I travel about once a year. Potential annoyance right now for me, I’m planning on getting one of these and test driving it against a new android phone. BUT forcing me to swap the eSIM back and forth seems like it will be a huge headache.
I love that they took what was basically a wart on the front of every phone, and turned it into a functional design element. - I HATE, how excited I got while watching it in action…. Lol
Well, if your design is so bad that everyone makes fun of it, might as well embrace the bad design and turn it into something usable ;) The competition doesn't have that issue to start with though. Just an Apple-issue.
That’s why I’m thankful I still don’t(and can’t) have these newer iPhones. Because I have more time to choose what’s the best model I will choose in the future. Still sticking with 7 now, I still have 92% BH(original battery).
I don't think I have ever used the front camera on my phone. I'm so sick of hearing about camera features. I honestly couldn't care less. As long as I can see the picture I took and it's decent, I'm fine. I still don't see anything that makes me want to go back to the iPhone.
I remember when Apple was the company of innovation. Now it is just the least marginal improvements they can get away with. The phone will probably be great but nothing exciting really. Awesome video
@@derictan12xx what's stopping them from making full baked new features? Just admit they aren't innovative like they used to and all they do is wait for a feature to mature and release it after few years with their own implementations. AOD, Widgets,120hz wasn't a gimmick. They are just out of ideas to provide new features.
Arun is one step ahead in Apple's marketing scheme, easily identifying their psychology and business strategies and sharing that knowledge with us. Lucky for me I'm still sticking with Android, but not so lucky for someone else who will be getting the I Phone 14 Pro thinking its fairly similar to the I Phone 14 Pro MAX thanks to the difference in SOC/Processor.
They should leave enough battery so your phone is trackable even when it's dead..if the airtags use such little battery it shouldn't be a problem to reserve enough to keep it tracked even when dead
Batterylife is the Bain of my life, I ditched iPhones with the X series due to truly dreadful battery life , then got a Note 20 Ultra which was better - but not outstanding. Then got the S22 Ultra with a much bigger battery than my Note 20 ultra - But battery life is now loads worse!!! WTF! I have most of the screen features turned off - rendering them pointless , so I have a Dim 60hz low res display to get my phone to last a long travelled working day.
@@markc1844I have the S22 Ultra and there are many ways to save batterie life on Samsung phones. The display options was one of them. And it seems it wasn't enough for you. But you can lower the resolution of your display aswell. And also you can go in settings and limit your CPU power and there is also an "extra dim" setting in your task bar. And I'm pretty sure you've came across the "power savings" mode, it pretty much does all og thoes. But if you long press on power savings mode it brings up other options that take it as far as making your screen black and white colors only to make your phone batterie last for days on end!! -just TH-cam on how to make you Samsung phone battery last longer
Apple is a master at tweaking a product that is on the high-end of “disposable” income. But it is getting boring. If I hear one more, “we are soooo excited about …..” I am going to throw up.”

Video not working 🤔
Edit : I switched to web browser and video is playing. Maybe try that out.
iPhone 14 literally came out like 9 hours ago and Arun with his team already managed to create such a well made video in such a short time.
Or there might also be a possibility that he got an early access to the iPhone 14 a while before the event. Because he is a big tech channel.
But still very Impressive.
He knew most of it beforehand, not from the event.
Yet he states he isn't the first one...FAT CAP BRUH!
Bruh these people get the phone two weeks back for testing and stuff.
TH-camrs have an embargo. He probably knew most of the info from press briefing and the video already made to go
i mean, he probably already have iphone 14 for review purpose since a week ago. it's not that uncommon for brands to lend devices to reviewers a week before launch.
The biggest downside of the new iPhones is the pricing in Europe. I mean the normal 14/plus cost 999€/1149€ and the Pro/Max cost 1299/1449€ which is about a 200€ bump from last year across the whole lineup. Thats gonna make the iPhones sell even less in Europe as we already have significant price bumps in every day life such as electricity, gas and so on. Im really mad at Apple that they didn't say that in the event, because i was so glad that the price stayed at 999/1099$ but seems it didn't account for Europe.
same for UK £100 more across the line , they really should’ve mention that somehow ! i had high hopes with that ” $1099 “
I just don‘t get how they actually demand 1300€ for the base model pro phone. Even considering inflation, a 200€ bump to last year is just ridiculous. Ignoring that you still don‘t get a charger with that price tag. That‘s gonna be a hard sell in europe…
Most people don't buy phones outright there tied into contracts for the next 2-3 years. They won't see that additional price. Plus consider the launch prices of the note and ultra line up supersede the pro max by another 200

It honestly makes more sense to keep an iPhone model for about two to three years then finally upgrade it rather than upgrading annually.
Always did, but there's zombie people that changed phones every year, but in this opportunity the price is so high, that all of the sudden realize the obvious.
Upgrading annually is overkill. 😳
2-3 years? I've had my iPhone X since it came out 5 years ago and have no issues with it. You don't need to upgrade your iPhone until the performance has notably decreased and replacing the battery is not worth it.
@@carpediemearth exactly
dont create un necessary waste
@@carpediemearth same here, still got iPhone X and very satisfied. I told myself two years ago that I won’t upgrade unless new model will blow my mind. Well, performance is still amazing, prob will carry it out until the end of the phone days :))
As a cell phone salesman, 80% of the customers who come through my door come in because their iPhone 8-X has stopped working. They want the base model of the newest iPhone. Usually they ask "what iPhone are we on now?" They usually don't even bother asking about the price. To a very large majority of the US market, the iPhone is the only smartphone available, and there is only one of them every year.
So basically 80% does not give a f***? Murica.
It's pretty impressive and somewhat sad how Apple has managed to just overwhelm the US phone market
and they are also getting android users to switch, which means consumer satisfaction is higher with iphone, and that's not due to marketing.

I told my brother to wait on getting us 13 pro max two months ago because the 14 was gonna come out. And that even if he didn’t want the 14, the 13 would be $100 less for basically the same thing (or similar enough things that he wouldn’t the upgrade for the extra price)
Been waiting since June for precisely this reason. That's solid advice!

@@etothej it’s still there but not on the homepage
@@etothej On their website?
Apple takes off the Pro/Pro Max models so they can get people to buy the newest P/PM models. If you want the 13 pro or pro max you'd have to get it second hand.. or from a reseller like BestBuy.
@@etothej they just discontinued it the 13 PRO and PRO MAX models
I really like your take on what apple is doing. Basically, mom is frustrated with her phone all the time because she doesn't understand that she actually did need the super pro version to make it worth while. This makes her quit trying to be tech savvy and that leads to her being not tech savvy and that leads her to not understanding that she is getting ripped off by spending 800 instead of 1200 for what should be the same phone just a little smaller that fits her hand and pocket better.
It’s amazing how they can make things look like they’re leaps and bounds better when they’re not. I’m quite happy with my 13 pro max. The saving grace for iPhones was a 120hz display. That’s it, that’s all the iPhone needed to feel amazing. Going to android then coming back to my iPhone always felt shitty because my iPhone at the time had a 60hz display and I was adjusted to the 120hz of my S21 Ultra. Once the 13 pro released in green, I had to have it. This will be my phone for a good long time. I doubt it will get sluggish anytime soon
Exactly even i am happy with my 13 pro max. I mean they calling them huge leaps are like very small upgrades. Probably will upgrade my iphone when 17 or 18 pro comes out
@@vaibhavsingh6336 what's your issue buddy
Yea, it won’t make any sense to upgrade from 13 pro max to 14 pro max..
you're totally right, and for a person that hasn't experienced more than 90hz screen display (like me), you can even go older, my xr works just fine, i have enough 128GB space it never fills, the camera is fair enough and it feels as fast as newest iphones, sure thing i'll miss stuff like pro motion since it would be my first ever time trying a high refresh rate screen (i know im a caveman but in less than a year i was rocking with my iphone 7 plus lmao), when i get the change i'll definitely get one of those 120hz iphones.
i did tried 90HZ screen, it wasn't good enough bc apple has that thing of the screen shows 60hz but its definitely recognizing 90hz, no biggie and that phone had a worse chipset so the apps opened faster on my iphone and it definitely got obliterated in games, it was an oneplus, don't exactly know the model but it definitely wasn't one of the flagships like oneplus 7T or whatever it was a mid range phone.
@@vaibhavsingh6336 haha good one. Pierced his heart hahaha
I have a feeling that many people will not use the always on display, due to it giving the impression that the display is not off, and as such, they might feel that their phone is always running even when they hit the power button. With other phones, the screen goes black, showing that the phone has turned off, and THEN a small image appears on screen, leaving the rest black. It is the same thing with e-ink displays, people feel much more comfortable when their screen displays all white ("off") instead of just whatever they last had on the screen, or something like a picture.
Exactly. Even then, why'd you need an always on display?
Efficient or not, it will eat battery no matter what.
Perfect. I was thinking exactly this. Also who needs something always on display? You're not gonna be looking at your locked screen all the time
This isn't really an accurate comparison, because an E-ink displays are bi-stable, you could drive an image to an e-ink display, and then gut all the electronics out of the system, and the picture would remain. It's consuming no power and doing no processing.
When you have an "always on display" on a phone like this it *is* "turned on", the processors are running, checking for inputs, checking the sensors for if it's put in your pocket etc. The display *is* still running, it's putting power to the backplane and emitting photons.
I think a completely black wallpaper will make it fully black by turning off the pixels.
@@SocksAndPuppets Do you know how much more battery is consumed? Without this data, how can one provide a valid, objective analysis? (The processor is always running, whether the screen is on or off.)

What you mentioned as "The Ugly" is precisely what will stop me from buying the iPhone 14.
I was expecting a notch design change and we got it! But only for the pro versions, which is a major disappointment from my point of view.
I'd already decided to buy the 14 as my 1st iPhone ever, but I just dropped that decision and am staying in Android world.
I mean: I can buy an used 13 pro max (with new battery) for less than 1200€, so what's the point in buying a new 14 base model for 1040€? To have the same design, same chipset, but possibly worse camera set?
Bad, bad move, Apple. Android it (still) is.
u can buy the 13 base model if u really want to get into the ecosystem. 599 is not a bad offer if you want (last year's) flagship phone with good camera that can compete even with the current android flagship. it's a better deal than the s21 FE. id always have an android phone with 1-2 year old flagship chip as my big gaming phone and an iphone with 1-2 year tech as my phone for e-bankings and emails.

Unless you're going for the Pro lineup, there's very little incentive to get the iPhone 14. It makes more sense, especially financially, to get a second hand iPhone 13 Pro/Max. Myself, I'm switching back to Apple, and I waited for last night's keynote, but it only reinforced that I won't be going for the 14 model. Not to mention, that where I live, Sweden, new iPhones are around 40% more expensive than launch US prices.

In the US for now atleast they lowered the prices of all the phones expect rhe 13 pro and 13 pro max. The 13 is lowered . The 13 pro and 13 pro max is the same price as the 14 pro and 14 pro max 😤 but that’s if you buy it from official places.

I have an iPhone 13 Pro, so using GPS as a driver ,making some phone calls, listening to music connected to the car battery will last for around 6 hours,even less and that's with battery saver mode on, without will last around 4 hours.
How much screen on time we looking here?, Is it worth getting 14pro vs 14pro max?
@@fjandinner3532 it does, you’re having most of the pixels ligjt at full brightness instead of off (unless you’re using an LCD iphone)
@@rayquazahere8529 iphone 12 pro also has the dimming issues, I'm convinced that almost all iphones after the Xs will be having this problem. And, for the 12 pro it would heat up fairly fast when browsing/downloading on data or just shooting long videos.
Yeah, I definitely have a couple problems with this year‘s phones. But my biggest being them getting rid of the Sim card and switching to eSIM. Really just not a good idea. Anyone agree?
Naa depends on your lifestyle
Yes I agree. I could not use this phone conveniently when I travel.
It's Apple's obsession with having few or no ports on their phones as much as possible.
I’ve actually been using esim for over a year now so not really. My carrier adopted it early
Looks like Apple users finally get some of the freature I ALREADY have on my Samsung Galaxy s22 ultra. Great job Apple!
Which feature?
I don’t know why this needs to be said again, but here goes. Apple don’t do anything just because someone else has done it. Apple do things when they can do them well, does it mean they’re late to the party a lot of the time, sure, but the features they bring are normally fairly mature and well thought out by time they do release them.
I say all of this as a pixel owner, but I recognise apples strategy of “do it right, not twice”
@@TheTactialLlama You are completely wrong. There is nothing like doing perfectly once. Then why u call the Iphone 14 an upgrade to iphone 13 and again upgrade to 12, doesnt mean doing more than twice, as apple always says the latest model is better than previous model
@@indmill2136 There's a distinct difference between doing something and doing something well. Apple choose the latter. Obviously tech moves on and things improve but Apple don't often implement things that are half baked. Do Apple always get it right. Nope. But they don't dilly dally from one concept to another.
“Some of the freature”
Arun's Excellence is unmatched! So much to learn from him. I celebrate your effort and sacrifice towards creating contents. You are not just raising the standard - you are the STANDARD! More grace to you!
Your presentation of tech details is unparalleled, way to go. Thank you.
Apple don't "wait until they can do something really well". You really think they couldn't have implemented this exact always on display years ago? They hold features back as long as possible so they can maximise their earning potential. This comes from lack of competition in that a lot of people will only ever buy an iPhone, so it doesn't need feature parity to Android phones. It's the same as with USB-C...if you're going to buy an iPhone regardless, then why should they change it?
A smart take on the topic really.
apple keeps lightning because of MFI. they have usb c in all other devices. MFI makes them a lot of money.
Sure, but if people stopped buying iPhones because it doesn't have USB-C then They would sure as hell change it. Besides, I'm not entirely sure that MFI wouldn't still be a thing and make them even more money with USB-C, since users would have to upgrade their old peripherals...and it would allow for higher power transfer and data speeds so you could have a much wider range of add-on devices.
The thing is, phone just aren't getting much better year on year these days, so anything Apple can hold on to and release further down the line the better for them. It's incredibly anti-consumer, and yet people still buy iPhones.
Yes except in 2018 when most phones started having aod they drained battery
And apple waited until they were able to change the refresh rate to 1hz so it wouldnt drain ur battery almost at all
Think Apple will be forced to switch to USBC next year
Finally, Apple now has given their iPhone 14 pro MAX a action mode which stabilizes the camera when taking action shots or shooting videos. This is what I need in my 13 pro.
Regular 14 pro has action mode ad well
It on all 14s
Look for the samsung s23 stablizes now u would cry
Even worse than your last point: By removing the iPhone mini, they took away another reason for some people to have an iPhone...those people who did not enjoy the large screens (like my sister, who is still using 1st--Gen iPhone SEs). There are those who don't need a big screen for their usecases.
Like he said, that's just few % of the users and probably not worth opening production lines and factories for that mere few % of people.
I thought they are still selling the 13 mini?
Wait a few years, it will be back as SE model.
Mini was just an enticement for android users to try ios. And now they're trying to rank up those pitched users. And yes, they don't really care about their users. If it's not profitable, scrap them.
Exactly. Also in my opinion the 5.4" iPhone 12/13 mini could have simply been marketed as a standard iPhone (not mini), with the 6.1" iPhone as Plus, and of course keeping the 6.7" iPhone as Max.
This channel is not just the epitome of tech youtube, but youtube in general. The information shared, endless creativity and top notch dedication really makes me feel guilty for watching this for free. Every video is fantastic, thank you Arun.
I got an iPhone 14 ad before watching his video. No question he's making money
I think TH-cam pays him so if you watch his videos he gets money
Another issue that was glossed over is the fact that there is no physical sim tray. At least on the US models. So international travel now gets much more complicated. Many countries don't use esims and esim as a whole is no where near as quick and easy to set up as simply buying a disposable sim in the country that you're visiting and popping it in your phone. So now your options are buy an expensive international plan with your carrier or hope that the country you're visiting supports it.
Now everyone is hating Apple for not implementing an Sim Tray, 1-2 Years later Samsung and every other Smartphone manufacturer will follow them. Like the Headphonejack. eSim is just the future.
@@greemura_7056 the thing is, its useless if people cant use their phone to call, so they wont follow unless they earn the benefit which right now there are more problems than benefits
i dont really see the point of removing sim trays. they arent bothering anyone and no one has EVER complained about them
@@greemura_7056 samsung already has esim support and some other companies so if they were to go ahead with it, it would be a time where esims are useable everywhere. how much will it save them? barely anything, if that. not worth the hate these companies will get if they do that
Arun hasn’t used one yet, so I guess never picked up on that
I am an iPhone user and have been since the iPhone 3G, I see more positives than negatives in this review and it’s actually been a few years since I upgraded so this will actually be a jump for me if I get the new phone
This is exactly what Jerry rig said about the Samsung z fold 4 while roasting apple at the same time. He expressed his concern at how These two companies are now just repackaging materials, bumping them up a percentage or two in "efficiency" then selling them at full price. Then comes the "new features" which in truth, the previous phones could also get via software updates but they either don't release that update to earlier phones or release it really late.
It's worth pointing out that Jerry also blamed apple for this. Apple allowed other manufacturers to relax with innovation, since people apparently don't care about it, they just care about the name of the product. As Jerry, I also have a Samsung Note 10+ and my only issue is the battery not lasting as it used to, for which I can compensate with the super fast charging

@@psyche234 And Apple rarely does it best, so this argument is worthless, just like every other time Apple fanboys use it.
Honestly the iPhone 14 is just an iPhone 13S
I said the same thing in 2020, the 12 was really just an 11S with flat sides. Apple stopped the whole " 'S' year schedule", but really just changed their naming and hoped no one would notice
the fact that they do that is an inovation in it self
you're overthinking this
This is more than an S model would do.
@@coleisforrobot Really? the iPhone 6S compared to the 6 felt very significant.
@@minbcraft Yeah well the S was just a label that was complex, people didn't like the name of "s" so they removed it
I just want to thank apple again for being the first to take away all of the things I loved in phones (SD card, 3.5mm headphone jack, removable battery) but also still being about five generations behind nearly any other company at introducing basic technology (action video modes, 4k video, always-on). That's what makes a true winner, tricking people into being willing to pay more money for less product.
Since when that iPhones has SD card and removable battery ! And the first phone in the world who came with the 4K video future is 8+ you have a very bad knowledge bro
@@digzo77 wow you're trolling hard for a company that is firmly settled in your behind. thanks for the fake news, but 4k was from Sony, with Apple only introducing it years behind all their competitors. The point is that they are consistently the first to remove popular features, and the last to add them in, yet their prices are staggeringly high. OLED three years behind the competition and that giant hole for the selfie cameras are two more examples of how other than on chipsets, Apple is the China of the tech world, big on sales but always several generations behind.
@@digzo77 Atleast I'm not paying for 5 year old outdated tech.
@@thepoplartreeforever7951 ur personal opinion will not make sense G
Apple have been doing the “features limiting” trick since Apple II computer. Just ask Woz, he had disagreements over that with Jobs almost from day one. Woz wanted to include every option possible and than some in Apple’s computers and Jobs wanted to include only what was necessary and than charge extra for the extra features. Tim Cook as Jobs’s disciple continues with this strategy even more. Also worth noting he is not an Apple’s visionary like Jobs was, but comes from supply chain management… so there’s that too (profit over form)
What are you talking about? I never did any of that!
@@FC12. lol you look young for your age Woz 😜
I disagree.Reality is that since Steve Jobs passing, apple IS NOT LONGER an innovative company at all…
@@conradofmc_ny6706 it’s not a matter of opinion, it is a fact. Innovation has nothing to do with Apple’s sleazy marketing schemes . I suggest you read Steve Wozniak book “iWoz” and interviews with former Apple employees. Jobs was a visionary but with an a-hole attitude

Just pointing out Huawei beats Apple to the satellite messaging feature by a day on the Mate 50
that's why US banned Huawei phones.
And for that reason is why they had to get rid of that company. 🤷 Because Huawei is the best phone by far out there.
@@VesaJay ..and because huawei is sketchy as hell.
while i hate apple with all my gut, i hate huawei too.
their hardware's absolutely great, but they lock down their bootloaders, presumably to stop you from installing open source software over their *ABSOLUTELY PROPRIETARY* software. thank god some huawei phones can be unlocked (including the modern ones im pretty sure), but that still doesnt bode well with me and makes me trust them alot less.
..not like apple does anything better, in fact, ios is practically backdoor central (think icloud backups, signature revokes etc..), and while all of these arent super serious backdoors, the other issue is that apple's ios is absolutely proprietary and theres practically no way of replacing it (other than somehow hacking apple's soc from as soon as it boots to load custom software while its booting before it can verify ios, like what project sandcastle did for linux/android on the iphone 7).
@@ariali2378 not really. i would say its because huawei has a sketchy history, but so does apple.
in reality, its just because USA, and a certain strangely coloured man, had some problems with china, so they decided to cut ties with chinese phone makers so china's economy would suffer more (this was only one of a dozen things usa did against chinese companies).

“Wait until their current phone stops working, and then upgrade to whatever happens to be the base model of the latest models of the time.”
God, that is so true. Literally hit the nail with a hammer. Hell, this is what I did 5 months back. My iPhone 6s, as great as it was, finally started getting worn down after years, so I finally upgraded to the iPhone 13 base (well Mini actually cuz I like compact phones).
honestly i feel like thats what most people do. Unless youre fairly well off, really big on tech, or making very poor financial decisions i think thats kind of the default. I love apple and their products but it does kind of suck that theyre trying to exploit the average person by sucking as much money from them as they possibly can.
Glad you went with iphone 13 mini.
I am not well off. but I actually upgrade my phone once or twice a year. I'm just never satisfied, especially when it comes to Android phones.

@@Cook1e00 the biggest would have to be factory split screen, being able to use 2 apps at once helps more than some people think. Quick close on all recent apps.

Apple Music forcefully stops playing any other entertainment source when it connects to Bluetooth. Having a zoom capability more than 3x (I use my camera a lot for work and need to zoom in more than what the 13 PM does). Yea they are coming out with it now but since Apple is always late to their own funeral, I have to say that I’ve always missed an always on display. Now the good!!!

Flat screen opposed to curved. The body… damn is this classic iPhone 4 body sexy. Camera is a tight battle but Apple seems to have the better software.

Same here. I only got the iPhone 13 Pro Max because the S22 Ultra wasn’t in stock. Out of disappointment, I bought the 13 pro max on an impulse. Regret it greatly. I’ve been using iPhones for a long time but made the switch to Samsung in 2019, never regretted it one bit. The iPhone 13 Pro Max is severely OP but honestly Apple’s software keeps it limited.

The removal of the sim card tray is like the removal of the headphone Jack from the iPhone 7. I know that Carriers probably pressured apple to drop the sim card tray because it hurts their bottom line for upgrades. I upgraded from a 6s to a 13 pro and I feel justified in my purchase since the 14 and 14 pro are like the 13 and 13 pro with barely enough to justify upgrades. Just buy a 13 pro and save some money from a 14 pro. It will get the same year of support as the base model 14
I work in wireless sales and SIM cards are hard to track and it’s a loss in money for them mainly than anything else it was an easy cost they could cut out while also pressuring consumers to buy multiple phones rather than swap a sim out.
@@naomispurgeon5842 lot of 3rd world countries don't support esim connectivity.
@@rzna. I believe that all models have a sim tray apart from the US version
Thats only for the US
Only the US is getting shaft*d like this with 0 sims, and here I thought a single sim was already hard to accept.
For those not familiar, regulations in some countries require dual sim capability and for this reason, iPhones manufactured in mainland China, Hong Kong, and Macau have dual nano-sims. Voluntarily, in order to stay competitive, a lot of OEMs market dual-sim capable phones in Asia. More consumer protections are needed in the USA, but I'm not holding my breath. With Apple owning over 50% of the US mobile market share all to themselves, they have 0% incentive to be competitive since it seems like being more restrictive under the guise of 'convenience and security', instead of providing flexibility, is actually working in their favor.

What they said about the competition still not having caught up with the A13 is not true in any way, literally Mediatek has made one that can compete (but admittedly probably not beat) the A15 from last year, let alone the A13. The A15 for the 14s also wasn't the same chip from last year; they took the one from last year's pros (which as the video says was better) and bumped them up a bit for the non-pros, and the A15 from last year was already way more than necessary for most people
Indeed
I’m a dynamic island boiiii
yes and no.
mediatek and qualcomm CPUs do not beat apple's.
mediatek (arm mali) and qualcomm GPUs do beat apple's.
nowadays, GPU-accelerated processing is becoming the new norm, and that is why qualcomm and mediatek are focusing on these alot more, and its why there isnt a real performance difference between the two in general usage.
also, qualcomm may get into the business of custom CPU design, to increase power efficiency.
sidenote: apple isnt honest with their marketing at all, so i dont know why you expect this to be any different. (think Privacy. That's iPhone.)

let's Gooo
Yeah but credit where its due , if apple had not pulled of those moves i don’t think they could keep the same prices , bloody inflation is so bad everywhere ... everyday life like fuel coffee gym memberships .... even star bucks increased the price , and doritos or chips or cornflakes we buy even tho they are same prices the size is reduced sort of deceiving... I am personally happy the prices are the same. then again I don’t even upgrade every year .
It's amazing how apple managed to catch up with android after 3-5 years. 🤣
Amazing how they continue to sell the most as well huh
@@LM-lj2cf No accounting for (poor) taste.
Instant sub. I may not be a day one but mark this date. He’s about to blow up
A bit surprised to not see any mention of the SIM card tray removal in the US version. Hoping it doesn’t cause an issue with international travel, and it makes swapping sims between android and iPhone a pain, even when they both have eSIM support.
What about Europe versions?
@@alexdraghici7615 they seemed to say that all non-US iPhones will still have a nano SIM tray
Some if not most European phone providers can offer esims…even though that is totally not the norm
@@jeffotaylor Thank you a lot!
@@rodrigojds yeah, looks like the same situation with Southeast Asia, where I travel about once a year.
Potential annoyance right now for me, I’m planning on getting one of these and test driving it against a new android phone. BUT forcing me to swap the eSIM back and forth seems like it will be a huge headache.
I love that they took what was basically a wart on the front of every phone, and turned it into a functional design element. - I HATE, how excited I got while watching it in action…. Lol
Well, if your design is so bad that everyone makes fun of it, might as well embrace the bad design and turn it into something usable ;) The competition doesn't have that issue to start with though. Just an Apple-issue.
That’s why I’m thankful I still don’t(and can’t) have these newer iPhones. Because I have more time to choose what’s the best model I will choose in the future.
Still sticking with 7 now, I still have 92% BH(original battery).
Best video for internet good brother 👍👍👍
I don't think I have ever used the front camera on my phone. I'm so sick of hearing about camera features. I honestly couldn't care less. As long as I can see the picture I took and it's decent, I'm fine. I still don't see anything that makes me want to go back to the iPhone.
Totally agree
Yep. That's why I usually skip segments that talk about cameras
I remember when Apple was the company of innovation. Now it is just the least marginal improvements they can get away with. The phone will probably be great but nothing exciting really. Awesome video
I feel they’ve shifted from bejng the “always first” to observing what half-baked android features other manufacturers throw out then improve it
It’s a really good business move. No need to spend money on new shit this year (well besides maybe the dynamic island)
When you lose an irreplaceable genius like jobs and replace him with a caretaker, innovation will suffer.
@@derictan12xx what's stopping them from making full baked new features? Just admit they aren't innovative like they used to and all they do is wait for a feature to mature and release it after few years with their own implementations. AOD, Widgets,120hz wasn't a gimmick. They are just out of ideas to provide new features.
@@derictan12xx Android and iOS copy each other
I love the way Arun critically broke down The Ugly when it came to the design part of the 14.
I love that iPhone Design. No complaints
RIP queen
Arun is one step ahead in Apple's marketing scheme, easily identifying their psychology and business strategies and sharing that knowledge with us. Lucky for me I'm still sticking with Android, but not so lucky for someone else who will be getting the I Phone 14 Pro thinking its fairly similar to the I Phone 14 Pro MAX thanks to the difference in SOC/Processor.
Unluckily for you your phone sucks teehee
14 pro and 14 pro max are same just size difference. The difference is between the pro and non pro versions
The iPhone 14 pro and iPhone 14 pro max are similar... the only difference between them is the size and battery life
@@emiliapeabea wtf dude. uncalled for.
@@emiliapeabea he said he had an android so you're wrong lol
They should leave enough battery so your phone is trackable even when it's dead..if the airtags use such little battery it shouldn't be a problem to reserve enough to keep it tracked even when dead
i think by iphone 12s have that feature since i have one
I’m pretty positive you can for a while after it dies
Batterylife is the Bain of my life, I ditched iPhones with the X series due to truly dreadful battery life , then got a Note 20 Ultra which was better - but not outstanding. Then got the S22 Ultra with a much bigger battery than my Note 20 ultra - But battery life is now loads worse!!! WTF! I have most of the screen features turned off - rendering them pointless , so I have a Dim 60hz low res display to get my phone to last a long travelled working day.
@@markc1844I have the S22 Ultra and there are many ways to save batterie life on Samsung phones. The display options was one of them. And it seems it wasn't enough for you. But you can lower the resolution of your display aswell. And also you can go in settings and limit your CPU power and there is also an "extra dim" setting in your task bar. And I'm pretty sure you've came across the "power savings" mode, it pretty much does all og thoes. But if you long press on power savings mode it brings up other options that take it as far as making your screen black and white colors only to make your phone batterie last for days on end!! -just TH-cam on how to make you Samsung phone battery last longer
@@markc1844 Get a powerbank for 50 quid👍
Apple is a master at tweaking a product that is on the high-end of “disposable” income. But it is getting boring. If I hear one more, “we are soooo excited about …..” I am going to throw up.”
You know that android especially samsung has more expensive phones now right?
@@theobserver3753 Yes. And you missed my point.
