For me, the brightness outside in the sun. Wowzers. I came from the 13 Pro Max and the difference is really something. Didn’t think I’d be as impressed as I am. It’s a massive difference.
Got a tip for us?

The camera upgrades. Maybe the better GPS. I was genuinely underwhelmed and returned my 14 Pro 2 days after buying it. Apple really is trying hard to drive me to Android again.
Same. The display is mindblowing. I came from the 12 pro max. So even a bigger jump
Forgot about that. First iPhone I have had no trouble reading in bright direct sunlight. Only real advantage of these new phones over my previous gen iPhone.
That’s good to know. I didn’t know there was a difference. It absolutely sucks in the sunlight on my 12 pro. Brightness max, reduce white off
For me I was really surprised by the speaker improvements!
The speakers are nice indeed.
I really like Dynamic Island. Love the little animations they’ve made for it. Plus the promotion screen is absolutely bonkers good! The 14 Pro has a different feel, in a positive way that is.
Camera, DI and battery life.
I’m happy with all of it.

AOD such.l a great feature, the only one I missed from Android
For me it’s USB-C…. Oh wait…. I think I’m a year too early 😂
I'd have to say the display. Its something almost no one mentioned but I see a pretty decent difference over my 13pm and my 14pm.
The promotion movement is smoother, I feel like its a bit clearer and the extreme low end and high end brightness is better as well.
The notch vs the pill is marketing. I like the pill better but it isn't some massive change nor is it a massive issue many here make it out to be.

During a sunny day ,how long is It able to keep with 2k nuts ? Doesn’t the heat make it throttle the brightness ?
Always on display. So nice to be able to glance minutes later and see the time or if there’s a notification.
It’s a hell of an upgrade IMO. Dynamic Island, always on display, 48m camera brightness, better heat management etc… Very happy here
Coming from the 12 PM, I am surprised how noticeable 120hz screen is, it’s so smooth! Regarding iPhone 14 features per say, the one I love the most for now is Dynamic Island. I don’t use it that much, but the blurred line between software and the notch is amazing
I took both my 14pro and 13pro outside in the bright sun and then I started recording 4K video, they both dimmed around the same time after about 3 minutes so sadly no difference. Also tested it while running Antutu benchmark indoors. Also after a few minutes they both dim the same. That is my biggest issue with the iPhone and I was hoping they would have resolved that.
Went to a soccer game today with full Texas sun. comparing my ip 7 and 14 side by side, My old iphone 7 plus screen is barely readable. my new iphone 14 Pro Max is sharp and bright. What a night and day diff.
I find Dynamic Island is very useful: timer, Apple TV remote.
