    I just think the 14 Plus is perfect. If you're a regular person who wants a regular phone, but bigger, this is an amazing option. I don't like the dynamic island because it's too distracting. I don't care about the 48MP camera sensor. I just want the best battery life possible and a bigger screen to enjoy my time in KZread ⭐

    I think a BIG part to the equation is: WHAT PHONE ARE YOU UPDATING FROM?. Buying the 14 plus when coming from a 7 plus is still a huge upgrade in almost every way. Screen size, camera quality, processing speeds, emergency features, display quality. If you already own an I phone 13, there’s no REAL reason to upgrade to the equivalent models in the 14 lineup. Expecting revolutionary changes to every new I phone model that comes out is not a realistic expectation nor is it sustainable. Upgrades seem to be more meaningful to the buyer when they upgrade their phone every 2-3 years.

    Agreed. I have upgraded from 7 plus and it’s fantastic. 14 pro max might be better in many aspects but the thing I care about is BATTERY LIFE and believe me it’s battery life is just ULTIMATE today I had to travel in a hot day charged it till 80% and now it’s 22% after constant use of maps,KZread,camera,calling for 10+ hours it’s still at 22 which will get me through tomorrow’s entire day on low power mode if I have no outlet and got stuck.. so in conclusion all the reviews are just making us spend extra for stuff we don’t really need… so just GO FOR WHAT YOU WANT!

    @@Phoenix-King-ozai the argument of getting a 13 pro max goes out the window if you can’t find one. Apple doesn’t make them anymore so you would be left with getting a refurbished or used phone which is still risky. I’ll also add that there are some people who don’t need the extra features and would rather save the 200 bucks over getting a 14 pro. Having the 14 plus in the lineup just means more options. Something to be happy about IMO.

    I got the 14 plus black 256GB when it launched here in Romania, I will say it’s the perfect phone for someone like me because I am a lawyer, I used to dread buying a pro max to read real time on the go legal documents, to use maps, bounce emails on the go. I am in the apple ecosystem with a watch 5 cellular, an ipad air 4 and a macmini from the intel days and the 14 plus is my upgrade from my Xs Max. I need the battery to be there for me, overkill battery, heck I have a battery bank in my backpack just in case. But for a high stress intensive job like mine the light design, big screen, amazing battery is the perfect fit and I am really happy I don’t have to shell out another couple of benjamins extra to get the 14 pro max.

    Didn’t get the plus but have the 13pm which has similar battery life. And it really does make a difference in marginal semi emergency situations. For example I work back to back 12 hour shifts, so I will routinely forget to plug in my phone and wake up to a dead battery and have no time to charge in the morning. More battery life gives me more leeway and means I don’t have to carry around a power bank.

We decided to get the iPhone Plus for one of my kids and for both of my wife's parents. The only real requirement for all of them was the largest screen so the SC would not work. I'm fine with my iPhone Mini 13 (RIP mini). If I get my wish, the Mini shell will become the SC base in the next couple of years.

    Generally I agree with most of your reviews. But, I think you totally missed the mark here as a review for the “general” public. Specifically, your issue with the 14+ is that it does not have all the bells and whistles that the next two upgrades do. I just went from the 12 mini to the 14+ and am totally satisfied. I don’t need promotion, 48 mp cameras, 2X zoom and a super fast chip (16 is not really that much faster than the 15, in reality) and the average person would never see the difference. And, battery life is important. I hate having to put a phone on a charger several times a day to keep using it. And, oddly enough, most “reviewers” of the 14+ bash it on price, rather than overall performance. BTW, my phone is costing me $3 a month.

    I always wanted a regular , plus-size iPhone since I don't actually use the tripple-camera setup. but the pricepoint is way off here. The 14 Plus competes with last years iPhone 13 Pro Max and what is the most important thing when at the first glance of the device. It's the screen so no having 120 Hz on the 14 Plus is a mistake and that is also one of the reason why I think the 14 Plus will be the least sold iPhone in this years lineup.

I have a smaller phone that I used for runs and so I don’t want to get a second number just for runs it that’s a waste so I swap my Sim card out on the weekends when I go for my long runs, I guess I’ll be all right.

Now the 12 mini was a great little iPhone and it served me well even with the small battery 🔋 life. But I’ve had a few iPhones and by far this is a battery 🔋 champ I get 2 days at least on a charge which is great. Everyone trashes on the 14 plus because of whatever reason which is there own just like everyone did to both the 12 mini and the 13 mini. Which cause the fall of both iPhones and it will happen to this one as well cancel culture strikes again.

    I just bought two iPhone 14 Plus phones, one for myself and one for my wife. I would have gotten the iPhone 14 Pro Max instead, but they are no where to be found at stores, including at Apple Stores, and they have a minimum 1 month wait time. Since we both needed a phone right away, our Apple Stores only had iPhone 14 or iPhone 14 Plus models available. I chose to get the iPhone 14 Plus 256GB models, to give us plenty of battery life and memory for the future. It seems like Apple can't make enough of the iPhone 14 Pro Max and iPhone 14 Models currently. Overall very happy with the iPhone 14 Plus. Price is high, but that's likely due to inflation and higher costs. I view my iPhone as an investment, as it is essential for my business. If I just needed a cheap iPhone, I would buy an iPhone SE. Hopefully the next iPhone SE will have a bigger screen and larger battery to appeal to more people, and fill that low cost segment.

    I came to the 14 Plus after a brief android stint with a Google Pixel 4a 5G. Before that my last iPhone was the 2020 SE. For me what drive me to the Pixel in the first place was screen size. The SE being still in the iPhone 6 body didn’t cut it anymore, felt too dated. The iPhone 12 at the time still felt too small. And 1,5 grand for a Pro Max? No thanks! The mini phone to me was always a joke and useless in most applications. As a sat nav in the car? Too small. Watching videos when waiting somewhere? Your eyes hurt. Almost a middle finger to the people on a budget: you want a big phone? Too bad, better be rich! You only get a tiny joke instead. I’m super happy with my 14 plus and it is all I need and even a bit I don’t. Awesome phone

I mean, Apple recycled so much of the iPhone 13's parts that they could have done it. Even the Apple Watch SE2 saw a price reduction, so why not with whats basically an iPhone 13s?

    i feel like with the way apple has handled this year's evolution, it's bound to be criticized as for the prices on the 14 and 14+ aren't negligible. comparing the 13 -> 14 and 6 -> 6s, the latter brought better value and actual new pieces of useful tech rather than the former. but i do agree that phones don't necessarily need to be that big of an upgrade every year, it'd just be better for apple to strategize better to increase sales for them and to provide satisfaction from customers upgrading from older models.

    The mini series didn’t sell enough because that’s a niche audience. Generally speaking, people like big bright screens. As far as getting the 14 plus over the 13 pro max, I can see why people would steer toward the 13 pro max, but you also get lesser trade in value, and it’ll soon be out of date for iOS updates. I have the 14 Plus coming from an XR and I love it. I’m big on battery life. I wouldn’t have a need for pro max features unless they get rid of the upcoming plus series and now that I’ve tried the bigger 6.7 inch screen I CANNOT go back to a smaller iPhone.

    I have a 14 pro max. I love the larger display, battery life, and the high refresh rate screen. I have nystagmus that gets a lot worse on lower refresh rate devices (like 60 hz) so having the higher smoother display is essential to me. I would have loved to go for the base or plus model iphone 14 and to save the money but to me, compared to other phones, it just wasn't worth it. In 2022 it's absolutely insane to me to have a phone costing over $700 that doesn't have a high refresh rate display. As far as value goes, I'm aware it's very subjective and value is whatever you want to pay but comparing to other phones on the market, the 14 Plus is just an awful value. It ends up being similar to the issue of the M2 Macbook where the prices are just too tight between last years and this years model to actually justify it existing. It's a great phone but are you really getting your money's worth when last years Pro model offers way may for being nearly identical in pricing?
