Which one of the iPhones is best for you?
Apple currently sells 8 different iPhone models, whose release date starts in 2020.
It is true that there is no such thing as the “best iPhone”, but some may be better for you than others depending on your needs, budget and preferences.
Today, with the addition of “iPhone 14” models, and the company stopping manufacturing “iPhone 11”, “iPhone 13 Pro” and “iPhone 13 Pro Max”, you may find it difficult to choose the correct device.
The prices of the currently available devices start at $429 for the “iPhone SE” 2022 edition, and rise to $1,599 for the “iPhone 14 Pro Max” with a storage capacity of 1 terabyte.
CNET presents to you the following 3 of the best rated iPhone devices.
> “iPhone 14” is the best “iPhone” for most people.
When we saw the “iPhone 14”, we said that it contains the “iPhone 13 Pro” processor and camera in the “iPhone 14” body, and there is no doubt that some will be disappointed. Because “iPhone 14” is no different from the models that preceded it. But this fact is part of its charm. Because the familiarity that consumers feel has always been a key factor in the success of the iPhone.
The “iPhone 14” includes superior features, but you may not see them or use them… and this is not a bad thing.
These features are numerous, the most prominent of which is the “accident monitoring” that informs the emergency services when you are involved in a traffic accident, and the feature of emergency communications via satellite to communicate with the specialized centers in places that are not covered by cellular coverage.
The “iPhone 14” features a flat-sided design identical to the “iPhone 12” and “iPhone 13”, with a ceramic shield and a water-resistant body, but its internal structure has undergone a complete redesign, and this means that the back glass in the “iPhone 14” has become easier and less expensive. to switch; Because it is no longer connected inside.
iPhone 14 models include, for the first time, a camera equipped with an automatic focus feature, in addition to a new tool called “Action Mode” to ensure the stability of video shooting, an updated cinematic mode that records videos with a resolution of 4K display and 24 frames / s, and the “iOS 16” program.
> “iPhone 14 Pro” is the best luxury phone.
The iPhone 14 Pro ($ 999) looks identical to its predecessor from the back, but do not let this similarity deceive you, because on its screen you will find something different and wonderful that will astound you. The window at the top of the screen, which has popped up on all Face ID iPhones, has been updated to show you system alerts and background activities while you’re receiving a call or listening to music. Apple called this feature “Dynamic Island”.
The “iPhone 14 Pro” includes a 6.1-inch screen with a variable refresh rate that varies between 1 and 120 “Hz”, depending on what the screen displays.
This device also got updated cameras, a faster processor, an always-on display, iOS 16 software, and new safety features, including “incident monitoring” and emergency satellite communications, and of course the “E16 Bionic” chip that supports all of the aforementioned features and updates.
The main camera in the phone is equipped with a new 48-megapixel sensor. It is true that increasing the number of megapixels may not mean better pictures, but the technology adopted by “Apple” by dividing and merging pixels guarantees you pictures with a resolution of 12 megapixels that are brighter and with clearer details.
> “iPhone 13”… the best “iPhone” in terms of price.
iPhone 13 ($ 729) maintained its rating as an “excellent phone.” In fact, if the “iPhone 14” seduces you, but you want to save some money, you should issue the 13; Because it simply has the same external structure, screen, and the “E15 Bionic” processor, even if the “iPhone 14” processor is equipped with an additional graphics processing core.
The design of the “iPhone 13” is characterized by square sides, supports fifth-generation communication technology and “MagSafe” charging technology, and includes cameras identical to those in the “iPhone 12 Pro Max”.
But the best feature that the “iPhone 13” offers you is its enhanced battery, which during our tests lasted an additional four and a half hours more than the “iPhone 12”, and almost three hours more than the “iPhone 14”.
