cluster introduced first on the iPhone 11 Pro this is the camera cluster on the iPhone 12 Pro here's the 13 Pro and this is the camera cluster on the new iPhone 14 pro it's so big you know at this rate Apple's going to be making that Samsung phone the failed one the camera phone with the zoom lens remember that thing but the camera bump isn't the only thing that got bigger on the iPhone 14 pro the notch did too in a way so that means that the most significant updates for the premium phone are the camera and the display let's try them out and see if they're a worthy update for the Pro While most people care about the cameras on their iPhone the thing I'm most excited about with the iPhone 14 pro is the display it's actually a major step forward in a whole lot of respects firstly it's a way better phone to film videos like these Outdoors typical Max brightness remains at a thousand nits but HDR brightness has gone up to 1600 nits and if you go outside on a bright sunny day like today the ambient light sensor can boost this OLED up to 2 000 nits though this will definitely eat battery but there's no more squinting at the screen keeping it clean so emails remain legible look at it compared to an iPhone 13 Pro wait why is it that every time I try to do a brightness comparison it always end up looking the same seven last year too but we'll also eat up the battery is the brand new always-on screen along a feature on OLED equipped Android phones Apple's finally brought it here too which is perfect timing thanks to the home screen improvements added to iOS 16. clock notification weather and calendar widgets are all visible without having to touch your phone what I love the most is the fact that it shows Apple Maps turn-by-turn navigation usually when navigating the screen is completely black until your next Direction prompt after which it stays on for a long time be always on screen however still shows direction information that's really handy and could save battery on a long trip even though unfortunately uh it won't because Apple went all the way in their implementation of the always on screen when active or asleep it looks as if I dimmed the screen all the way to its dimmest setting in dark mode and then just left it on it's quite jarring but because alongside the information the wallpaper remains on of course there's more going on underneath to reduce the impact Apple slows down the screen to one Hertz and they claim to do some trickery to make skin tones and portrait wallpapers stay accurate it kind of looks like an unlit slide photo now the penalty in my usage is almost a day of use and that makes me think that Apple may have gone a bit too far Android phones let their screens go completely black showing only the pertinent time widget and notification information when it's sleep that goes a long way at making the phone appear off allowing you to be more present I think the easy solution for the iPhone is a wallpaper on offsetting foreign I've long thought that software these days isn't magical I largely blame flat design for that but out of the blue Apple has given us the dynamic Island it's one of those features that when you see it you wonder why nobody's thought of it before conceptually it's a software Embrace of the face ID system cutout we were first introduced to with the notch on the iPhone 10. now though the sensor array and front camera remain in a black monolithic pill then depending on what background task you have running on the phone the island expands and splits to give you increased information and access this speaker girl is just gonna get filled with lint it's so thin it's very lovely and Lively but also a start I think it's slow kind of reminds me of the iOS 7 animations that made people sick I do really love how alive it feels and looks but I'd rather not have to wait to use it the dynamic Island should make something as simple as changing a song easier but it doesn't there are two methods of interaction simply tapping on the island will open the associated app but long pressing inflates the island into a widget I think this is backwards because most of the time I don't want to leave what I'm doing and tapping is easier I love how face ID registration is integrated into it which makes sense and I'm hoping they use this for more in the future for example notifications still appear as blurred rectangles below the island and airpod pairing is still a white panel at the bottom of the screen I do worry how long the dynamic island is going to remain exclusive to the pro iPhones because that might prevent it from expanding its capability as much as I'm hoping developers are not going to look for new ways to use this feature if the install base is a small exclusive group of wealthy iPhone users now to be fair face ID did get introduced into the mainstream models after only a year and they should do that here too so I guess the dynamic Island on its own isn't enough to Warrant an upgrade but I do love it and you will too if you get one now because the way this bright always on screen can drain the battery you're gonna need a charger and because the iPhone doesn't come with the charger might as suggest this video sponsor the anchor Nano 3. it looks like a small phone charger but is actually as powerful as the laptop charger that comes with the MacBook Air at 30 watts and don't worry their active Shield 2.0 technology keeps tracking for Joyce's temperature over 3 million times a day keeping it safe it's available in five colors like this lilac purple which will match your iPhone quite nicely I think so check them out in the link in the description below do people buy the iPhone exclusively for its camera because I I can't go over how huge this is I mean it extends all the way past the halfway point of the back of the phone now what's driving this change is an all-new much larger 48 megapixel sensor Apple uses the extra pixels for many different things because Apple now employs pixel binning for the first time it takes 4 pixels and combines them into one so normal compressed photos from the camera are still saved at 12 megapixels second the extra pixels enable a two times Zoom option by cropping 48 megapixels into 12. third the extra pixels allow for a gimbal-like action mode for video resolution drops to 2.8 K but footage gets more stable and finally the extra pixels are accessible if you shoot in the 48 megapixel Pro raw mode though those files can balloon past 100 megabytes in size so if you only get a 128 Gigabyte version that comes to about a thousand photos and that's including no prores video either oh yeah and then try getting all those photos and videos off it so how is it I compared the 14 pro to a bunch of different cameras the 13 and 11 Pro a pixel 6 Pro and two real cameras here's what I've learned the low light improvements on the new iPhone help shorten the shutter speed not reduce noise in daylight compressed photos of all the iPhones look heavily sharpened and it's hard to tell the difference between the newer and older phones I really found myself preferring the processing that the pixel 6 does photos taken in Pro raw are much better especially if you do the adjustments yourself if you are getting an iPhone 14 pro for the camera use prora especially the 48 megapixel mode if you can they do look so much better I took photos alongside the Sony zve E10 and Ricoh gr3 they are very nice compact 800 aps-c cameras certainly they're more cumbersome to Lug around than simply an iPhone in your pocket but I noticed holding these that they're way more fun to photograph with the camera ergonomics compel you to find and snap that next photo that's something I have yet to feel with the iPhone like I never take iPhotos I'm still impressed with the photos you can get on the iPhone 14 pro now it takes great video but a dedicated video camera is better it takes great still photos but a dedicated still camera is better it takes great action video but a dedicated gimbal is better it's a jackable trades and a master of none really really great if you're in a pinch but unless Apple starts putting in lenses like these we're getting to the limits if you have an iPhone 12 in newer though I don't think you should upgrade as you'll still be getting the benefits of prora the 48 megapixel photos Aren't Enough unless you're a glutton for selfies because the autofocus on the front camera is a game changer though I think of regular 14 gets that too the other Improvement the iPhone 14 pro gets is the a16 chip in my tests it's not significantly more powerful than an a15 powered 13 Pro shaving only 20 seconds off a Lightroom export and showing mild improvements in geekbench It's not nothing and it still miles ahead of the 6 Pro and if you want the best performance in genshin Impact get an iPhone 13. so it's not worth an upgrade if you're coming from anything newer than an a13 every iPhone release at least I'm reflecting on my waning enthusiasm it feels like gone are the days of truly Innovative and exciting updates and changes to the phone but it's actually not true there have been really sizable jumps between each generation even taking photos on this old iPhone 11 Pro feels like a trip back in time with the absence of prores and pro raw options if you are upgrading from one of these you are going to notice a lot of differences can be attributed to the premium iPhone's increased price used to be that all the Innovations added to the iPhone get added to the latest model that everyone ends up buying and that used to cost 650 dollars to get the best the iPhone has to offer today you have to pay significantly more in this case a thousand dollars and it's not clear anymore when those Innovations will trickle down so far I haven't thought any of these features are worth operating to alone but what if you put them together well compared to the standard model the pro gets a lot more features this year and the price difference between it and the standard model is only two hundred dollars every year is a good year to get a pro but you don't need to get a pro every year if you're coming from an 11 Pro then yes this is a great option if not maybe just replace the battery thanks Andy for taking high quality photos of this Mac Address if you like the new camera on the iPhone 14 pro give this video a like and if you're curious about the iPhone 14 plus you might as well subscribe now I'm curious are you the type of person who just takes photos exclusively with an iPhone comment low what that's like why do you do that do you miss having a camera"}
