Apple announced 4 new smartphones for this year, which have similar characteristics in pair: iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus, on the one hand; and iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max, on the other.
The iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus (with 6.1″ and 6.7″ screens) are hardly incremental improvements to the iPhone 13 Pro, as they even share the same processor. The big differences are new functions, such as a technology called Emergency SOS, which makes it possible to communicate with emergency services via satellite; and crash detection technology to alert contacts in the event of an accident. Outside of that, there are improvements to the optical stabilization of the rear camera and a more powerful front camera.
The iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max (with 6.1″ and 6.7″ screens) are Apple’s strong card this year. In them we find a much brighter screen, for outdoors, and a new processor that offers much better performance. This better chipset allows you to use a more powerful rear camera configuration, with a 48MP main sensor and that takes better photos even without much light. In addition, these smartphones will have access to Dynamic Island, a new context menu always present.
