The Apple iPhone 14 Pro Max has some major differences from its predecessor. For starters, its display is bigger (6.7 inches), it has a ceramic shield, and it has a 48-megapixel camera. This phone also features cinema-grade Dolby Vision video recording and LiDAR for next-generation AR experiences.
120Hz ProMotion technology
The 120Hz ProMotion technology found on the Apple iPhone 14 Pro Max and 14 Pro models promises a more fluid and responsive viewing experience. Developed by Apple, the technology makes use of low-temperature Polycrystalline Oxide (LTPO) panels. This allows for a high dynamic refresh rate while ensuring power efficiency. As a result, Apple claims the devices will offer smoother scrolling and gaming performance.
Apple first introduced 120Hz ProMotion technology on the iPad Pro a few years ago, but it took a while for the company to make the feature available to iPhone users. The Apple iPhone 12 Pro did not come with ProMotion, but reports claim the company tested it on the iPhone 12 series. At that time, 120Hz refresh rates were not yet included on the iPhone, and the company was instead working on LTPO panels, which allow for variable refresh rates while preserving battery life.
48-megapixel camera
The 48-megapixel camera on the new iPhone 14 Pro Max is a huge upgrade over the 12-megapixel camera on the previous model. The 48-megapixel resolution means more detail and more crisp pictures, although a downside is that photos taken with this camera will take up more storage space. The new camera also features “ProRAW” technology, which is said to give the user more options and control over their photos.
The 48-megapixel camera on the new iPhone has a quad-pixel sensor. This sensor is about 65 percent larger than the one on the iPhone 13 Pro, enabling users to capture higher-resolution images even in low-light conditions. The new camera also has a new 24-mm focal length. The 48MP main camera also includes an Ultra Wide camera with larger 1.4 um pixels for higher quality macro shots.
6.7-inch screen
Apple’s latest iPhone has everything you could want in a smartphone. It has a 6.7-inch screen, a ceramic shield to protect the screen, the best Pro camera system on an iPhone (with a 5x optical zoom range), cinema-grade Dolby Vision video recording, and next-generation AR experiences with LiDAR. And it’s available at an affordable price, too.
The iPhone 14 Pro Max has the same design as the iPhone 12 Pro and 13 Pro, with a flat edge glass sandwich design and surgical-grade stainless steel on the back. It has the same Ceramic Shield protective glass and stainless steel for durability. It also has a faster processor. Apple claims that the larger screen makes it easier to read texts while reducing the risk of damage from drops.
Always-on display mode
Apple has added the Always-on display mode to the new iPhone lineup. The new feature allows you to see your notifications, wallpaper, and widgets while your device is not in use. It works by using internal files in iOS 16 to recreate the transitions from a background to a foreground color. It also uses lower brightness levels, which saves battery life.
Apple’s new Always-On Display uses a redesigned OLED LTPO ProMotion display with a lower refresh rate, which means the display remains on but is not always showing anything. This means that your battery is conserved, and you don’t have to worry about the device draining out quickly while it is in Always-on mode.
Sharper edges
Apple’s next generation of iPhones will have a subtle shape change – sharper edges and more curved edges. That’s a big improvement, but it’s not the only change coming. A render artist, Ian Zelbo, recently discovered that Apple plans to make its next-gen phones even curved. This would make the phones “far more curved” than the current iPhone 13 Pro models.
The Apple iPhone 14 Pro Max is very similar to the iPhone 13 Pro, which means that iPhone 13 Pro cases won’t work on the new phone. The edges are likely to be rounded – the new phone’s protruding camera arrays might require a slightly more rounded edge compared to the 13 Pro.
USB-C connector
Rumors suggest that Apple is working on a new iPhone that will have a USB-C connector instead of a Lightning port. This could mean that the company is testing out the new connector for future iPhone models. However, Apple will likely retain the Lightning port for this year’s new models.
The iPhone 14 Pro will still come with a Lightning connector, but Apple is working on a USB-C connector. This new connector is five times faster than the previous USB-A connector. This means that you will have a faster connection with your iPhone.
