At the end of the day Dinamyc Island it's literally just a redesigned status bar. Even if its implementation is fantastic, how much is your user experience really influenced by it?
I know exactly how AR works thank you. Just because it is overlaid, people will still be looking at data / images, rather than interacting with the real world and people. I know Apple are working on AR glasses, but to be honest I really hope that it will be a miserable failure. AR / VR is one step closer to the future human race as represented on WALL.E IMO. It’s bad enough at the moment with walking phone scrolling zombies.Not sure you know how AR works.
It means you can look at the real world with important things overlaid, not be looking down all the time.
I love my pro Max. I had the X, so it was time to update, specially because the battery was bad and Face ID was broken.
Kind of tired of reading so many users that need to complain even though they have last year model. Also why do you need to buy a phone every year, it’s a computer, like why would you update your MacBook every year (still going strong with my MacBook Pro 2014). It’s good if you can update every year, but don’t expect miracles every year.
So many spoilt people in this world, that needs to complain about everything. Get a perspective please….
NGL I was mesmerized by the ingenuity of Dynamic Island when I first saw it during the keynote. I looked forward to the new iPhone but most of all looked forward to “taking a trip” to Dynamic Island. Well, the trip was sweet and short.
True. The days of “checking out” phones are over. I just want the Ipp. My wife got hers yesterday and I want a new shiny toy also.I want the Aod, better camera, brighter nits, night sight, action mode, etc.At some point you realize that your smartphone is not a toy, it's a tool. You get a new one to do some task that you could not with the previous one. If you get a new one and do the same tasks you will be disappointed.
EXACTLY. The difference from my 12 to my first pro 14 is very noticeable to me. People can hate all they want, but my gosh what do you expect upgrading every year? You will NEVER appreciate any major changes that way. The only way nowadays to truly appreciate the new phones is to wait 2-3 years.I love my pro Max. I had the X, so it was time to update, specially because the battery was bad and Face ID was broken.

Perhaps the initial poster and all the haters should realize this also, no?‘So it is your 7th post and you are already getting down on posters here. You need to remember that there are all kinds of people here with different needs and wants.
Long live iOS 6!the IOS 6 integration with the battery, SUPER SNAPPY, camera takes amazing photos.
IOS 16 is going to annihilate the iphone 13, as IOS 17 will with the 14, I don't know what you are worried about😄, my 13 pro max has had a noticeable reduction in battery life with IOS 16
The landscape face unlock works great. Haven’t properly tried the ProRaw, will try that tomorrow. The days of upgrades as significant as the Treo to iphone are truly behind us![]()
Same here. I’m coming from a 13 Pro Max and I noticed very very little difference in the pictures. And with apples new processing sometimes the 13 actually looks better. I’m really surprised. It’s a very very minor upgrade.Is it your first year on year upgrade? It is for me as well, and I had a similar feeling.
Previously, I went from an iPhone 11 to the 13 Pro Max. Hell of an upgrade. I was expecting the same thing this time going from the 13 Pro Max to the 14 Pro Max. After upgrading I do wonder if it was worth it. It's definitely a better phone, just not the same level of change.
But I can sell my 13 Pro Max and recoup a decent amount since it is in pristine condition, not to mention I also saved on tax as I purchased the phone through salary sacrifice with work.
I suppose what I'm getting now is the satisfaction of always being on the latest, not dealing with any battery degradation, and selling my old device before it depreciates any further. It's just a different feeling to doing a huge upgrade.
I personally don't upgrade annually, and so the changes are more significant. I'll be skipping this and looking for the 15.a very underwhelming iPhone, especially if you’re coming from iPhone 13 Pro like me.
