As with the iPhone 14 Pro, our colleagues at Urban Tecno Test iPhone 14 thoroughlyThe entry model to Apple’s range this year. It’s an iPhone that comes with a few new features compared to the previous generation, but that could become one of the best-selling smartphones of the year.

Our colleagues from Urban Tecno analyzed the iPhone 14

iPhone 14: table of features

We leave you alone with the video of our colleagues from Urban Tecno. Analyzing iPhone 14then we analyze the best and worst aspects of the device based on your feedback.

Three reasons to buy the iPhone 14

video recording

For a long time, Apple had a huge advantage over its competitors in video recording, and of course, iPhone 14 is one of the best smartphones you can buy for recording videos. It is unrivaled especially in terms of its support for certain mods and social networks.

Video is the best that iPhones have. For 1000 euros, you won’t find a better video recording device than the iPhone 14.

Design

we are in front of a Almost the same design as the iPhone 13, but that’s not necessarily a bad thing. Apple has found the key design and there is no reason to change it. We have very high quality materials and a build quality that is hard to beat.

It’s a small and not too heavy device. It is a very beautiful and very well made device, although it is the same as last year, it is still one of the best designs. Apple achieved a brand image with straight edges and notch. An excellent design.

The design of the iPhone 14 is still very beautiful and high quality

Yield

Although the iPhone 14 uses the same A15 Bionic chip as last year, performance is still excellent. Apple has a big advantage over its competitors and just like in the video, no one can get close to it. The iPhone 14 and A15 Bionic chip outperforms only the iPhone 14 Pro and A16 Bionic chip.

You’ll say I’m crazy, it has a processor from last year but it doesn’t matter. The A15 Bionic works very well, it’s a long-term processor and a multi-solvent processor. We continue to get the best performance on a smartphone other than the iPhone 14 Pro.

Three reasons not to buy the iPhone 14

60Hz refresh rate display

We are talking about a device that costs more than 1,000 euros, and although Apple wants to make a difference with the Pro series, Protecting a 60hz screen isn’t quite right in a device at this price. Apple may be able to come to a compromise between current technology and ProMotion.

This screen needs to be more Hz. On the Pro model you can keep a ProMotion at 120 Hz and here is a model with only 30, 60 and 90 Hz. It would be 30 Hz for media and 90 Hz for transitions, this iPhone 14 an iPhone 14 It’s horrible to see how the transitions look when you plug it in with the Pro. If you get used to using it, fine, but totally unacceptable if not.

iPhone 14 has a display with a refresh rate of 60 Hz

battery and charger

We have an accurate battery, not extraordinary, but accurate. But there are details that our colleagues at Urban Tecno don’t like at all. On the one hand, fast charging very slow, Apple states that it charges 50% in just 30 minutes, but it may take an extra hour to charge the remaining 50%. And something similar happens with wireless charging.

I’m not saying that Apple should offer 150W fast charging, but for a €1,000 device we can request 50W fast charging. And worst of all, Lightning. Apple already has many devices with USB-C, and this undoubtedly needs to change.

Camera system

We’re not dealing with bad cameras, but frankly, we haven’t seen much improvement this year, especially in the ultra-wide angle. Lack of telephoto sensor draws a lot of attention, because the zoom will always be digital. While the main sensor is good, it lacks the options its competitors offer in these price ranges.

In general, the cameras are not bad, the complaint is with the telephoto lens. Also, we don’t have a high-resolution main sensor that allows us to do a good digital zoom.

Smartphones are reaching the point of maturity that this iPhone 14 showed. it is not necessary to buy a new smartphone every year or twoThey are devices designed to last, especially iPhone, because of performance, features, and design.

For this reason, it is designed for iPhone 14, iPhone 11 or olderNot for those with iPhone 12 or iPhone 13. The refresh period will get longer, and Apple knows it.
