iPhone 14: Everything you need to know
The Apple iPhone 14 was released in 2022, with a few notable improvements from the previous model, the iPhone 13. It came with a better screen, longer battery life and upgraded camera specs.
While the iPhone 14 doesn't have some of the newer features – such as USB-C charging – it's still a fantastic phone. Plus, its price tag is significantly lower since it's not Apple's latest handset.
So if you want a new iPhone but aren't too bothered about having the latest iPhone, the iPhone 14 is a perfect option.

What's the difference between the iPhone 14 and the iPhone 15?
The iPhone 15 is fairly similar to the previous model, but there are some key differences.
The iPhone 15 features an A16 Bionic chip to improve processing power, and the notch has been replaced with the Dynamic Island, which was previously only available in Pro models.
It also includes a 48MP main camera, a big jump up from the iPhone 14's 12MP camera. Perhaps most exciting of all, it has a USB-C charger to finally match all your other devices.
How good is the iPhone 14 camera?
The iPhone 14 includes a 12MP main camera with a large sensor, larger pixels, and 1.9 microns to capture more light and detail in photos than previous models.
Its fast f/1.5 aperture allows you to capture clear as crystal photos in low light and create portrait photos with a flattering bokeh effect and shallow depth of field.
The front-facing camera also received an upgrade. It now has a 12MP TrueDepth camera with an f/1.9 aperture, boosting its low-light performance by 38% compared to the iPhone 13. The camera also features autofocus that allows you to focus on multiple distances, meaning you and all your friends will always be in focus when taking a group selfie.
All this, combined with Apple's Photonic Engine software, means your photos will be better than ever.
How good is the iPhone 14 display?
The iPhone 14 features a 6.1-inch custom Apple OLED display. The Super Retina XDR display offers bright colours, crisp contrast, and smooth motion on screen.
It has a ceramic shield coating, apparently tougher than any smartphone glass, meaning you can be confident that your iPhone 14 won't crack and will last you years of use.
How good is the iPhone 14 for video?
When filming video, the iPhone 14 also has improved stabilisation with its Action Mode.
With this feature, whether you're recording fast-paced action shots or filming while running, the iPhone 14 will record smooth and steady footage that looks slick and professional.
