iPhone 14 Pro Max iPhone 14 Pro Max first impression -- disappointing

[macfan2023]

The camera is noticeably of lower quality to S21 Ultra 5G, that's not even the current gen.

The home screen swipe up is annoying... In android after face ID, it goes straight to your phone. Anyone know how to disable this swipe up thing.

No fingerprint.

Smaller than the S21 ultra.

Some weird bugs, very random stuff can't really categorize them into words but you know it's not working.

Pro max is great. Some of what you have to get used to is apple. Camera is great as well. Ymmv.

Swipe up is the way things work. You have 14 days to return it.

S21 camara pretty bad

S21 camara pretty bad

Having come from the S21 to the 14 Pro Max... I can confirm this.

You have 14 days to return it.

why presume this? not everyone buys direct from apple, you won't get a refund from the major electrical retail stores for those reasons here in Australia.

Samsumg phone can't even show notifications on the lock screen? And what about widgets? 😆

Its hard to take you seriously after saying this.

Then without a return policy I would make darn sure of my purchase.

Processing is what the user sees, the camera hardware is wonderful (ProRaw shows that). The image processing on the 14 Pro(s) is dreadful. Incredibly basic images are ruined with the awful processing.

Did you actually buy it or are you just giving us your impressions based on articles, forum posts and a demo at an Apple store?

I don’t want Face ID or fingerprint.

Good thing there is 14 day returns.

 

[sparksd]

Don’t like it, return it. I’m happy with my 14 PM.

iOS is good but some things are truly painful to deal with ngl

This new member has started several anti-Apple/pro-Samsung threads in the last couple of days. Pretty clear what their agenda is...

I basically disagree as the above is so general to be meaningless.

This is the best phone I've ever owned. I'm sorry it's not working out for you.

The camera is fantastic! Especially at 48mp, it has no equal. This is why I upgraded, ProRAW is the best. Samsung has great cameras, but the software that drives them is subpar to Apple’s software. Most people that say that the camera sucks on the iPhone aren’t photographers and do not have clue on how to use it properly and do not know what they are doing when capturing a photo. The shutter button is pressed and they hope to get a nice photograph. I hope you aren’t coming over to the Apple forum bashing the iPhone as an android user… sounds like you may need to stick to android. Ewe!

Another unnecessary thread.
