Apple's big new phones are coming this autumn to a store near you. But which one should you get, the iPhone 14 Pro Max or the iPhone 14 Max, and what are the differences?
This year's Pro models looks vastly different from their predecessors when it comes to the front design. With two punch-holes in the form of an"i", the iPhone 14 Pro Max employs what Apple calls a Dynamic Island, a dynamic area around the notches that displays contextually-aware and persistent notifications, alerts, and prompts. It's Apple's way of truly embracing the punch-hole and not afraid to use the newly claimed design element to its full potential.
Another major difference between the the iPhone 14 Pro Max and the iPhone 14 Plus will be the chipset powering each phone. The iPhone 14 Pro Max gets the newer generation silicon, the 4nm Apple A16 Bionic chipset, while the iPhone 14 Plus relies on iPhone 13 Pro/Pro Max's chip from last year, the 5nm Apple A15 Bionic chip with 5-core GPU.
In terms of memory, Apple doesn't explicitly say this, but we suppose that both phones come with 6GB of RAM. The difference, however, could very well be that the iPhone 14 Pro Max comes with the much faster LPDDR5 type of RAM, while the iPhone 14 Plus relies on the slightly slower LPDDR4X RAM, courtesy of the A15 Bionic chip. Overall, this should boost performance.
The iPhone 14 family now also supports Satellite SOS connectivity, allowing iPhone users to connect while in areas hat are outside regular cell coverage. With this new connectivity feature, the iPhone 14 will communicate with a satellite hundreds of miles above and allow you to report emergency. Sadly, standard texting and other types of data throughput are not supported due to the limited bandwidth. Still, you can send simple short messages and hopefully get emergency services to help you out.
While no 8K video recording has been scored on either device, the iPhone 14 Pro Max and iPhone 14 Plus now support Cinematic mode in up to 4K HDR 30fps, a big leap over last year's pretty limited Cinematic Mode of 1080p at up to 30fps on the iPhone 13-series. There are many other novelties in terms of video on both phones, including Action Mode, which can shoot at up to 2880 x 2160 at 60fps, as well as much improved Pro-level workflows for video.
