iPhone 14 - The Good, the Bad and the UGLY. - Summary

Summary

The iPhone 14 series introduces a sleeker design by replacing the notch with a hole punch, which houses an improved selfie camera and Face ID. The new 'Dynamic Island' feature allows multitasking without leaving the current app. The series also boasts direct-to-satellite communication for emergencies, a brighter display on Pro models, and the replacement of the iPhone Mini with the iPhone 14 Plus. The Pro models feature a 48-megapixel main camera and an adaptive flash. However, only the Pro models receive the new A16 Bionic chip, while non-Pro models retain last year's A15 chip. The design remains largely unchanged, and the best features are exclusive to Pro models, creating a divide between standard and Pro users.
