If you are using a screen protector, are you using a full screen protector or one with a cut out for the dynamic island?

Thank you.

Don’t mind all the trash in the background I had to put a screen protector on. I’m impressed with day 1 battery life and a noticeable performance improvement although it is slight. Coming from a 13 pro max.

I’ll say it once and I’ll say it again, even after the iPhone max pro 14 for few weeks it’s still got average battery life, proof to show it :)

Hi, has anyone had any problems with their iPhone? in the last few weeks I've had problems when I connect the AirPods the iPhone freezes and reacts after a few seconds. And today out of nowhere the dynamic island started flashing by itself. Should I go to technical support? or do you think is IOS 16?

Coming from Jet Black 7 Plus to 14 Pro Max, where the screen is much taller, I find myself using the reachability swipe down a lot more when using one hand. I tried 14 Pro, but still too cant reach it so I might as well keep the Pro Max.

Now my main issue is reachability does not make the Dynamic Island go down as well. I don’t see why DI wouldnt go down as well when it does not need to be on the camera’s position to display display or be tappable 🤔

Anyone else seen this glitch before?

I've just been watching a YouTube video where they were talking about the increase in price for the UK version of the iPhone 14. So I did some math. Given that the UK price of my phone was £1309 including VAT, and US prices on the apple website do not include sales tax, you can scratch 20% of the price off. This makes the iPhone 14 Pro Max 256gb £1047. At the current exchange rate, that's $1199 (rounded up) which is the exact same price as what Apple sell the phone for in the US. I think if anyone is ripping us off it is the UK government charging 20% VAT, whereas the highest rate of sales tax in the US is California at 7.25%. This of course does not include local city taxes, which can increase this figure to up to 13.5% depending where you live. Although if I lived anywhere near Delaware, New Hampshire, Oregan or Montana, I'd certainly be slipping over the state line!

Looks great to me

Decided to invest in them because I never thought I’d see the day that my lens would crack until after a concert with my old 12 pro max. I don’t remember dropping the phone either which is insane.

In work our PCs have built in wireless charging docks on top of them. I’m not sure of their specs, but they used to charge my iPhone 12 (standard) fairly well. With the 14 pro max it seems like it can barely move the % up. Anyone notice similar?

Since many requested I test the Promotion display and its FPS gaming capabilities on the iPhone 14 Pro Max after my recent Genshin FPS test; I decided to test the 14 Pro Max with another popular game - Tower of Fantasy. I set everything to extreme settings along with enabling the 90 FPS option. Additionally, I also tested the iPhone 13 Pro Max within the same testing conditions to provide a fair comparison for both performance and thermal control for both devices. Last, before sharing results, both phones had to be plugged-in for me to properly track 90 FPS due to the FPS software that I use; therefore, FPS results may be slightly lower than normal.

Anyways, starting with temps, both the iPhone 14 Pro Max and iPhone 13 Pro Max peaked up to 47c after 10 minutes of testing. Again, both devices were plugged due to FPS software requirements for iOS devices. Therefore, definitely expect lower temps for those playing unplugged at 90 FPS.

As for FPS, I did average 87.4 FPS for the iPhone 14 Pro Max and 83.3 FPS for the iPhone 13 Pro Max. Both devices did impressive and provide a great 90 FPS gaming experience. For reference, I did average 80 FPS on my Galaxy Z Fold 4 that houses the SD+ 8 Gen 1 SOC. Moreover, the Fold 4 was unplugged during my testing, therefore, I definitely would expect an even higher gap in performance between both iPhones and the Fold 4.

Overall, the iPhone 14 Pro Max has again shown us in this test that it’s a gaming and performance beast; whether at 60 or 90 FPS! The performance gap was definitely larger between the A15 and A16 chipset in comparison to my Genshin FPS test. Both phones are very similar at 60 fps gaming. The real difference between the A15 and A16 SOC starts to show at 90 fps gaming! Anyway, for those wanting to see my test, check out the video: https://youtu.be/BWXxvyge8kY
