Unbox Therapy Shares Hands-On Look at iPhone 14 Pro Max Replica

How many more consecutive years of larger camera/bumps before they start slimming down? Already so ugly.
 
What is the weight ? What material ? Dimensions don’t tell even the fraction of the real iPhone 14 story.

I really like MKBHD, Dave2D, a few of the Linus Media Group channels (so LTT, Mac Address, etc), UrAvgConsumer, and JerryRigEverything. Basically channels producing high-quality and varied content. Jonathan Morrison was a good one too, but I feel he went in a different direction with music creation and whatnot (still a great content creator, just not in areas I'm interested in).

Unbox Therapy isn't a producer of high-quality content in my opinion. Clickbaity, dishonest, and it just felt like every video for a while was just trying to repeat the success of the iPhone 6 "bendgate" video.


That may have been historically true, however content creators are required to flag / disclose paid-for reviews or sponsorships as per the YouTube T&Cs. This was a huge thing a few years ago, and for the better.

iPhonedo is a very good channel with high quality videos and scientific measurements to back it up.

Flossy Carter less so but he makes me laugh with his "real" reviews.

Petty pedantic post incoming.

Pills come in all kinds of shapes. I take a pill every day, but it’s circular. So when I read the holes on the front of various iPhone 14 models will be ‘one pill-shaped and one circular’ I have to wonder if there isn’t a better term for the non-circular shape, such as stadium.

en.m.wikipedia.org

Stadium (geometry) - Wikipedia

en.m.wikipedia.org en.m.wikipedia.org

Even better (or at least funnier IMHO) perhaps, from that page is sausage body. :D

I actually love your post. I understand you, it also bothers me when people call helices “spirals” or any quadrilateral as “rectangle”. They are not the same thing!!!

After seeing this I was going to get an iPhone 14 and move back from Android but I'm not impressed

I'll wait next year for the iPhone 15. this years phone too much like the iPhone 13.

No USB C, 3nm due in 2023 should be more energy efficient . camera not radically different.

Agreed, looks like another S upgrade.
 
Damn. Can we get some leaks about iOS 16? We’re 3 weeks away from beta 1.
 
who is excited over the iPhone 14 rumors?. I understand that the big changes are a 48MP camera and 8k video, which are useless in the phone and iPads because the screen resolution is much lower, but also in the majority of TV sets at home (at least in mine we have 5k and 1080p and no plans to get a 8k screen).
Oh, and both are features supported since a few ago by many other brands.
Definitely lack of innovation. Maybe too much home office?.
Another 1000usd this year to “upgrade” to “the best camera ever on an iPhone”.
Sadly I have an “iPhone for life” program that pushes the new iPhone every year and I have to take it. But this year is one of the worst in iPhone hardware updates.
Tim does not uses his products, is clear.
 
I would far prefer a thinner iPhone, even if this means a slight reduction in battery life. If the phone is a ridiculous bulge in our pockets, that to me is a problem (and it’s one made more noticeable with the squared-off edges on the last couple of iPhones).

"Hi, Tim here. Another annual minor update to your favourite phone! And we think you're gonna love it."
 
So pretty much the same design as iPhone 12. I'll hold off at least another year. I rarely watch videos in landscape so the smaller notch won't make a difference to me

iPhone 12 Pro Max user here. I will probably wait another year. I used to get so overly excited, spending money on each new generation but I have come to realise that its just not reasonable at those price points anymore. At the end of the day you just go back using the same exact apps, the exact same way anyway

A huge fan of the Pacific Blue as well as one of many who upgrade yearly until last year. So yeah ‘am going to surmon all the will power to do it again this year and keep my 12 PM ?.
 
Speaking of colours, I had to sadly upgrade from my beloved Midnight Green 11 Pro to a black 13 Pro.

I really hope they bring back the proper Midnight Green back, the current new Green is a bit lacklustre.
 
4 pages of bashing Unbox Therapy is clear evidence of Lew's success.
