Apple iPhone 14 Pro Max (128 GB) - Deep Purple

This iPhone is a huge step up from any other I’ve ever seen or used and I’ve had iPhones since the iPhone 3g. The camera is stunning and I’m a semi-professional photographer. I’m not going into a deep review of it all but suffice to say it really does live up to the hype for once, and that’s rare!The screen is stunningly clear and simply gorgeous to look at. The whole phone really makes the very most of the latest iOS 16.1 operating system but by the time you read this it will have been developed even further for sure. Using this phone is just a dream and if you’re in a 5G area, you will be blown away by its speed.This is technology at its very best and if you want the best mobile phone available today, I heartily recommend you go for this. It even has a battery that will get you through an entire long day! Not that it matters too much as I can charge mine from empty to 80% in under an hour.This isn’t the place for the kind of review this phone deserves but I can say with confidence you will not regret buying it.As a side issue, my friend and I ordered our phones on the exact same day, he from Apple and me from Amazon. I got my phone at least two weeks before he did!

The standout feature of the iPhone 14 Pro Max is undoubtedly its amazing camera. The enhancements in the on-camera editing tools make it far superior to last year's model. As someone who uses this phone for most of my modeling photos, the results as good as employing a professional I find it incredibly useful. Thank you, Apple, for creating such an impressive device!

Perfect condition. Excellent sound quality and value for money. As someone who loves photography, no complaints as far as picture quality goes. It’s as good as you can get for a phone camera. Not a huge difference compared to other models so don’t be fooled into upgrading. However it does have some nice new features that older models may not, but nothing outstanding. Battery life is amazing which is the main reason I changed my phone from the 11 model. It lasts well over a day now without being charged and I’m quite a heavy social media/camera user. Reliable phone & happy with my purchase.

This was a researched purchase on price features benefit and most importantly reliability. The phone is similar size to the X but with faster processor it has the 256 G memory performance is extremely fast.The case alone cost £20 and it’s worth the money.Very impressive resolution watching video and photos. The speaker is sound has a lot more clarity and the sound is pretty much similar to the X.I’m very pleased with it though it is expensive I guess you get what you pay for.

30/09/2023 Bit of an update, very much like Apple do. Now been living with the phone for a while and still have only one complaint ! My good it’s heavy ! Tried another notch on my belt to no avail, it pulls all my suits and jackets out of shape and the rear of my designer jeans is around my derrière so have had to buy a briefcase just for the damn phone, oh and a pair of earbuds so I don’t miss any calls. 🤦🏻 Well I bought this 14 Pro Max and so I must like the make of phone, it’s my fourth iPhone and each has given terrific service, unlike my experience of Androids. It is way too big, in my opinion, but if you want that camera ! Does it work ? Hell yes, like a dream, easy to transfer all the stuff from my old iPhone 12 SE and everything worked perfectly and let’s be honest will continue to do so for years to come as long as you keep it updated so no real moans. I have to say I can’t actually find much difference, operating wise, between the two but maybe it’s all under the skin ? This was a good price and with that big chunk of storage it was way better value than going to Apple directly. I’m sure I’ll get used to it and in a few weeks or months I’ll be as happy as a 🐖 in the mire with it.

Edit: To be fair, since having this issue so early on, it hasn’t happened again and I’ve been really pleased with the Phone otherwise. This I have updated my rating. Would have been a 5 star had this not have happened, but perhaps one of those things?I was excited to receive this phone, I've had iPhones for several years now and was looking forward to this.First impressions were really positive, its a much larger screen than I'm used to which is great for watching youtube, videos, and online content. The battery, although better than my 3 year old phone 12 wasn't as good as expected.Today though, after less than 2 weeks, it died while I was out for the day with my young children. A normal restart didn't seem to work and I was stranded until I got home. Fortunately I was with my children, otherwise they wouldn't have been able to get hold of me.On getting home, I find out about the black screen of death that affects new iPhones. Turns out this is actually a thing, and a force reset of (Volume UP button, Volume DOWN button, SIDE button until an Apple logo appears and then release the Side button resolves this. Turns out I was expected to know this and SHOULD know this. Apple said it was my fault for not knowing this. I tried saying that a fault like this less than 2 weeks after purchase is a manufacturing problem of theirs. THEY DIDNT WANT TO KNOW OR ADMIT IT. I don't care if its a hardware or software issue, both come from Apple. All our tech products are Apple currently - laptops, watches, desktops, phones, but this is a joke. Oh and I have Apple Care Plus, but they don't believe it is a problem with their Hardware or Software. Hence the extremely poor review.
