Apple has really nailed its smartphone formula. The iPhone 14 Pro represents a duality, both as something extremely similar to its predecessor while also being simultaneously new. It features a lot of camera upgrades and the Dynamic Island, which replaces the infamous notch five years after the notch’s debut on the iPhone X.I can confidently say that the iPhone 14 Pro, pending a few more test results, is the best phone I’ve ever used, and the only argument is whether the extra screen space offered by the iPhone 14 Pro Max justifies the $100 premium over the standard iPhone 14 Pro.
From its pocketable form factor to its sheer horsepower and camera capabilities, the iPhone 14 Pro stomps on everything else I’ve used since the dawn of the modern smartphone. I can’t believe how good it is — I loved using it the whole time I worked on my iPhone 14 Pro review.
Sure, the iPhone 14 Pro isn’t the huge upgrade you might have expected, but that’s because the iPhone 13 Pro did a lot right. The Pro series has hit a point where it’s so good that there’s not a lot of upward mobility. What we got this year is the epitome of iteration: better cameras, better and brighter display, a new design element, and more powerful hardware.
As you’ll see in this iPhone 14 Pro review, this is as close to a perfect phone that I’ve ever seen in my career. Nothing else comes close for me. But when you’re done here, be sure you head over to our reviews of the iPhone 14 Pro Max and iPhone 14 to check out what else Apple came up with this year.
