Careful friends may find that this year's iPhone14 series has cut off the mini version, but instead added an iPhone14 Plus, which uses a 6.7-inch screen, while the iPhone14 Pro Max also uses a 6.7-inch screen, but the price difference is 2,000 yuan, and many friends are also confused about how to choose.
To help everyone choose, let’s interpret these two phones below. You will understand after reading the reviews.
1. Appearance design
There are big differences in appearance designs between the two phones. The appearance of the iPhone14 Plus is almost exactly the same as that of the iPhone14, except that the screen has become 6.7 inches, which is essentially the "magnified model" of the iPhone14. It uses a metal midframe and a glass back cover. There are also five types of midnight black, starlight, purple, blue and red in color. The dual camera lens on the back is arranged diagonally and supports IP68-level waterproofing.
Compared with iPhone14 Plus, the appearance of the iPhone14 Pro Max has changed a lot. It abandoned the notch screen design for many years and switched to the Chinese medicine pill screen design. Moreover, its hole-punched area integrates application controls and notifications. Apple is also called "Lingdong Island". It uses a high-bright metal middle frame and a matte glass back cover. There are three lenses on the back. Its body weight reaches 240g, which is much heavier than the 203g of iPhone14 Plus and supports IP68-level waterproofing.
2. Screen quality
iPhone14 Plus and iPhone14 Pro Max both have 6.7-inch large screens, but the display quality is completely different. The screen brightness of iPhone14 Plus is only 1,200 nits, and does not support high refresh rate technology, and only has an ordinary 60Hz refresh rate.
In comparison, the screen brightness of the iPhone 14 Pro Max can reach 2000 nits, which is difficult to have competitors in the mobile phone industry. Even under the sunlight outdoors, you can see the screen clearly. It also supports ProMotion adaptive refresh rate technology, up to 120Hz refresh rate, and the Chinese medicine pill screen design is higher than the notch screen design.
3. Imaging system
iPhone14 Plus's imaging system is the same as that of iPhone14, and is also a 12-megapixel main camera, supplemented by 12-megapixel ultra-wide angle, has an f/1.5 aperture and optical anti-shake . In addition to the improvement of the aperture, it does not have much improvement with the previous generation of iPhone13, and has a 12-megapixel selfie lens in the front.
iPhone14 Pro Max is equipped with a more powerful "Pro-level camera system", with a rear 48-megapixel main camera, supplemented by 12-megapixel ultra-wide angle and 12-megapixel telephoto, and supports the second-generation sensor displacement optical image anti-shake. The added 48-megapixel main camera and telephoto have more advantages than the iPhone 14 Plus.
4. Core performance
iPhone14 Plus is equipped with a full-blood version of Apple A15 processor, which is the same as the previous generation iPhone13 Pro. The reason why it does not use Apple A16 processor is because it can save costs. After all, its performance is not bad. It can completely surpass Snapdragon 8+, Dimensity 9000+ and other processors, and can also improve the cost-effectiveness of iPhone14 Plus.
iPhone14 Pro Max is equipped with Apple A16 processor and uses the new 4nm process technology . Compared with the previous generation, the performance has been improved by about 10%, and the power consumption performance has been greatly improved, which also makes the iPhone14 Pro Max better battery life than the iPhone14 Plus.
Its battery capacity is not much different, but the iPhone 14 Pro Max has a longer battery life, both supporting 20W+ fast charging, and MagSafe supports 15W wireless charging, and Qi wireless charging power is 7.5W.
Speaking of the end, the difference between
iPhone14 Plus and iPhone14 Pro Max is actually very obvious. iPhone14 Plus is prepared for large-screen users with low demand. Its hardware configuration is the same as iPhone14, but the screen reaches 6.7 inches, and the hardware configuration is not bad. The starting price of 6,999 yuan is also very competitive.
If you have a sufficient budget, it is definitely better to choose the iPhone14 Pro Max, because it has a flexible island design, longer battery life, a stronger 48-megapixel triple camera, and Apple A16 processor. The 8999 yuan is also a price increase compared to the previous generation.
