My September 2023 14 PM: 454 cycles, iOS 18.7.2 from settings 86% and from Coconut 88.1%.
I had been very annoyed with its overall performance for months, but above all, the keyboard lag was unbearable.
I did the date change trick, the “clear RAM” trick, reduced motion, and made some keyboard adjustments, and now it runs like a bullet. It seems to have gone back to iOS 17 or 16. I hope to use it for at least two more years.

I just traded in my 14 Pro Max for a 17 Air two days ago. It still had 86% battery health and could still easily get me through a full day. The Air feels a bit snappier at everything (surprisingly, because the 14PM wasn’t laggy at anything I did), but it was far too heavy.
If this Air doesn’t work out, I’m trading it in for a 17 Pro. After getting the Air, which surprisingly is small enough to safely use single-handed, I realized how much I missed being able to. No more Max phones for me.
