10 Reasons to Buy iPhone 14 Pro Series in 2022
The New and Powerful A16 Bionic Chip
The iPhone 14 Pro series features a much better A16 Bionic chip compared to any Android mobile processor. First, it uses the TSMC’s N4 node, which is an improved version of the N5 node that powers the A15 Bionic. Second, the A16 packs 16 billion transistors, which is a billion more transistors than the A15 Bionic (15 billion transistors).
Besides, recent AnTuTu tests show that the A16 has a 17% increase in CPU performance and a whopping 28% jump in GPU performance (compared to A15). Yes, the benchmark scores of the A16 are not as high as other flagship Android chipsets. However, Apple’s closed ecosystem allows the company to have control over both software and hardware, which gives them a competitive edge over other Android phone makers.
Improved Camera System
The iPhone 14 Pro series sees major improvements in the camera system. It packs a new 48MP primary camera with a quad-pixel sensor, a notable bump from the 12MP camera. Not just that, but the 14 Pro series also features second-gen sensor-shift optical image stabilization for gimbal-like video stabilization.
In addition, the phone also features 48MP ProRAW and improvement in the low-light performance of all sensors:
- up to 2x on the Main Camera
- up to 3x on the Ultra Wide Camera
- up to 2x on the Telephoto Camera
- up to 2x on the TrueDepth Camera
Other camera upgrades on the iPhone 14 Pro series include:
Apple 48M ProRAW
With the iPhone 14 Pro series, Apple introduced a new 48MP primary camera with a quad-pixel sensor. It allows the iPhone to combine four pixels into one large quad pixel equivalent to 2.44 µm to capture amazing low-light photos of 12MP size.
However, with the Apple ProRAW, users can now use all 48MP of the sensor to capture extreme details, which according to Apple, enables new creative workflows for pro users.
Action Mode
The other new feature is the Action Mode. With gimbal-like video stabilization in Action Mode, the iPhone can now adjust to significant shakes, motion, and vibrations to capture smooth videos. On top of that, in this mode, users can capture up to 2.8K videos at 60 fps.
Cinematic Mode
The iPhone 14 Pro can now take 4K video at 30/24 fps in the Cinematic Mode— the film industry standard. Besides, the phone also supports ProRes3 and end-to-end Dolby Vision HDR for pro-level workflows for video.
New TrueDepth Camera
The front camera of the iPhone 14 Pro also features some significant improvements. For the first time, the front camera comes with autofocus that can automatically focus on multiple subjects at once. Besides, the ƒ/1.9 aperture on the camera enables better low-light performance for photos and video by gathering 38% more light.
New Dynamin Island
Along with some internal upgrades, the iPhone 14 Pro Max also features a major design overhaul. After six long years, Apple has finally replaced its iconic notch with a pill-shaped Dynamic Island.
Moreover, Dynamic Island also brings some useful features. With the help of software, Apple has managed to bubble up the area around the notch to show important alerts and notifications.
The New Crash Detection
The new Apple Crash Detection is a safety feature that can send alerts to emergency contacts when you suffer a severe car crash. With the new dual-core accelerometer and a new high dynamic range gyroscope, all iPhone 14 models can detect impacts and dial emergency services when a user is unconscious or unable to reach their phone.
Moreover, the new accelerometer can detect G-force measurements of up to 256Gs. The existing components, like the barometer, can now detect the change in cabin pressure. Likewise, the GPS provides inputs regarding speed changes, and the microphone can recognize loud noises made by severe car crashes.
New Emergency SOS via Satellite Service
The iPhone 14 Pro series also brings the Emergency SOS via Satellite Service that lets you connect to a satellite in an emergency circumstance. It allows you to call or text emergency services when you are out of cellular and Wi-Fi coverage range by trying to connect your iPhone to a satellite.
Always-On Display
Last but not least, the iPhone 14 Pro series also packs the always-on display (the first time in iPhones). This feature makes the lock screen always glanceable, so users don’t have to tap to wake up the phone. Moreover, the always-on display goes dark when the phone is turned face down (to save the battery).
The display itself of the iPhone 14 Pro series is no joke. It’s a Super Retina XDR OLED display with Apple’s ProMotion technology that offers adaptive refresh rates ranging from 1Hz to 120Hz. Moreover, the Pro models offer always-on-display, 2000nits of peak brightness, and fingerprint-resistant oleophobic coating (one of the best smartphone displays).
