All iPhone models can be confusing, especially when you're trying to get a new phone or upgrade from an older model. In this blog post, I'll break down how the iPhone model numbers work and what changes when going from one model to the next.
This year's revamped and renovated edition of Apple's iPhone doesn't look eye catching at first glance. However, this isn't because you don't get any exciting features with the iPhone 14 model; it's simply due to the fact that you're upgrading from last year's model.
Even though Pro models seem to be more befitting for users who are seeking more features, the iPhone 14 does have many things up its sleeve. The camera system performs better in low-light situations and takes in true HD pictures using crisp autofocus capabilities. The Action mode is definitely a welcomed feature for filmmakers looking for stable footage under varying outbursts.
Apple has released the iPhone 14 and made mainly moderate updates to the iPhone 13. The upgrades for this round of iPhones are for the iPhone 14 Pro, with its brand new design, upgraded camera performance, and powerful A16 Bionic chipset.
For an extra $200 when compared to both the cheaper iPhone 14 and it's more expensive counterpart, you will get much better performance, a bigger screen, enhanced photography prowess and increased photo quality in equal measure.
