The Touch ID fingerprint sensor is also a great feature, allowing you to easily unlock your device and make purchases without having to enter a passcode. The battery life on the iPhone 6 is also quite good, lasting through a full day of moderate use. The device also supports fast charging, so you can quickly get back to using your phone in no time. Overall, the iPhone 6 is a great choice for anyone looking for a well-built and reliable smartphone. It's easy to use, has a great camera, and offers a wide range of features and apps. The only downside is the device is no longer receiving updates, but it still can be used as a phone.

I’ll always be an apple user so this review is already biased in a way. To start off with, this phone is beautiful, from its frosted back to the metallic frame. It’s simple but has a classy touch to it. I’d say the only downside are the small bezels on the screen and the awkwardly placed notch at the top of the screen. iPhones have always been user friendly and this remains the same on this phone, straight forward no hassle. The newest iOS (iOS 14 as of this review) allows the user to organise their phone and apply widgets to the home-screen so it’s truly a personalised experience. The phone can be a bit buggy at times but that doesn’t stop it from being a great device. Now let’s talk camera quality. iPhones have been known to have an outstanding quality in regards ... MoreI’ll always be an apple user so this review is already biased in a way.

The phone can be a bit buggy at times but that doesn’t stop it from being a great device. Now let’s talk camera quality. iPhones have been known to have an outstanding quality in regards to their cameras and this stays true with this phone. We’re talking Crystal clear imagery with a range of features to play around with such as panoramic mode, portrait mode (not the best feature but it’s something different), the ability to get wide shots and seamless video quality. With this phone we got the same usual accessories, lightning cable, EarPods, instruction manual (and the classic stickers). However this time we got an upgrade on the charging brick, this new up to date version allows the phone to charge faster in comparison to its predecessor, which comes in handy if you need to charge your phone fast before going somewhere or doing something. I could easily write more in this review but it’s getting a bit lengthy as it is, I will include some photos taken on this phone to show just how phenomenal the camera quality really is.

bought my IPhone 7 a little over a year ago and still have it! I bought it at Wal-Mart on sale for $189.00 and was impressed with from the start. There where a few things things that were different from previous models that I had to get use too, ( no speaker jack and home button was obviously a little different ) But, there where also huge improvements that I really enjoyed and that was the camera was better which meant better pictures and overall Quality! Also, the iPhone 7 was water resistant which was something new to the IPhone and great for a klutz like me! They also improved on their speakers including a second speaker I believe in the earpiece. I thought is was nice of Apple to include their signature AirPods even though the phone didn’t include a speaker ... Morebought my IPhone 7 a little over a year ago and still have it!

I love IPhones, always will, and definitely Recommend any one of them!

Apple really dropped the ball with the iPhone 14.

Many Problems with Activating and setting up from iPhone-8. iCloud transfer worked OK, but phone would not activate, and required multiple support calls to resolve. iMessage and Facetime did not work after logging-into Apple-ID, and the fix was complicated. Most online suggestions did not help, but searching indicated that these problems are very well-known for the iPhone-14. iOS updated helped, but did not actually fix anything. The phone has been working now for nearly 2 weeks, but the user doesn't acknowledge any improvement over the iPhone-8, and she misses the hardware "Home Button". Overall, this is not perceived as an upgrade vs. the iPhone-8. We would return it but we returned the original phone for credit. We are not seeing much improvement in the photo ... MoreMany Problems with Activating and setting up from iPhone-8. iCloud transfer worked OK, but phone would not activate, and required multiple support calls to resolve. iMessage and Facetime did not work after logging-into Apple-ID, and the fix was complicated.

Don’t know

I’ve had this phone for about two weeks now, don’t get me wrong it’s a nice phone. I’m not sure if it is because of the iOS update or system issue. I’m not getting my notifications at all for messaging or calls on my Apple Watch or iPhone at the same time. Which means my notifications aren’t at the same time like they were with my iPhone 11. When I had my iPhone 11 and my Apple Watch was synced to it. My Apple Watch or my iPhone would light up or make a noise when I got a notification. Now since my new iPhone. My Apple Watch gets them, but my iPhone doesn’t vibrate or my screen doesn’t light up when a notification comes in. When I was at my phone company. They thought that was weird as well. They thought I did something to my phone and I didn’t. I’ve never had this ... MoreI’ve had this phone for about two weeks now, don’t get me wrong it’s a nice phone.

They thought I did something to my phone and I didn’t. I’ve never had this problem before with my old iPhone. I’ve called apple support. They told me to wait until the new update. If it keeps happening after the update. It’s the phone. So right now I’m dealing with a software issue. It sucks. Hoping the new update does fix my problems because no one else knows how to help me for the past two weeks.

Excellent for People with Multiple Apple Devices

I had considered getting the Pro, but that was on back order, and since I don’t do much video, I decided the regular iPhone 14 would be good enough for what I need. It is smaller than the other versions, so it is good for people (like me) with small hands. Let me just say, I ordered this new iPhone 14 online and set it up myself: this was the easiest data transfer/phone setup I have ever gone through. Having gone from one iPhone to another, the new phone walked me through the setup process and automatically pulled all of my apps, passwords, and other data from my old phone and installed it on the new one; all I had to do was log into my different accounts. Now, I have low vision, so I rely heavily on accessibility features.

Now, I have low vision, so I rely heavily on accessibility features. The iPhone has multiple settings that I utilize, first and foremost enlarged font sizes. On my previous iPhone, the size I set would cause text to bunch and overlap, rendering it illegible. Despite the iPhone 14’s screen being only a little larger, I am happy to say that this issue has almost completely vanished. Apple touchscreen products, like their watch, iPhone, and iPad all use the same touch commands, making them extremely easy to use and navigate once these different controls are learned; this new iPhone is no different there. For the Facial recognition, it is an extremely convenient feature that works whether or not I am wearing a surgical mask; the only frustrating part is that I have to be fairly close to the screen to see it, which is much too close for the facial recognition feature to work, so before I even realize it is going to scan my face, it has already tried multiple times and then requires me to enter my passcode or password manually. The only thing that makes this particular inconvenience tolerable and less interruptive is that I have an Apple Watch which, when close enough to the iPhone, unlocks it if facial recognition fails (my watch is frequently vibrating to let me know it—not my face—opened the phone or an app). iCloud is still a fantastic feature, and I haven’t encountered any issues pulling up information on my phone or iMac. The new battery life on this phone is also a huge plus! I have used it to listen to lossless audio streaming, watching videos, streaming shows and live tv, reading, online shopping, GPS navigation, and random browsing. I am on my phone or listening to music for hours each day, more so the past week because of the Thanksgiving holiday, and while I choose to charge my phone any time it gets under 80%, I haven’t even had to do that every day. The only real glitch I have encountered is that on some phone calls, I cannot adjust the sound volume during the call with the phone’s side buttons. Otherwise, it does everything I need and more, so I am very happy with this new iPhone and, for sure, recommend it!

Fix the wallpaper feature

Jumped from the 13 max to 14 max solely for the camera and I usually don’t just jump a single phone model - slightly regretting it. The 13 had trouble autofocusing and selecting the right camera when taking photos out of an airplane cockpit. The 14 AF and camera selection seem to be slightly less temperamental so far, and the colors(especially in low light) seem truer. That’s where the improvements stop for me. The wallpaper feature widgets update is nifty, but it killed a very basic and arguably important feature - choosing Home Screen and Lock Screen photos independently when you just want to change one of them. I’ve just sorted by people, selected a photo, “use as wallpaper” which automatically sets as your Lock Screen, and then forces you to choose a Home Screen ... MoreJumped from the 13 max to 14 max solely for the camera and I usually don’t just jump a single phone model - slightly regretting it.

I’ve just sorted by people, selected a photo, “use as wallpaper” which automatically sets as your Lock Screen, and then forces you to choose a Home Screen photo(or Apple background) right then, but doesn’t let you sort by people which means you either have to screenshot the photo in advance so it’s easily accessible or scroll through all of your photos. The even worse scenario: What if I want to change just my Home Screen? Why am I forced to completely redo my lock screen photo + widgets and then go fishing for my desire Home Screen photo!? I just don’t get how you sit down in a dev meeting and say, “Should we let people choose their Home Screen and Lock Screen photos independently of one another like we’ve done for years without issue? Nah, let’s change it.” Change just for the sake of change is no guarantee of improvement. Would not recommend the jump from a 13.

Overall excellent

Bought a 128gb for my dad in his early 70’s (Christmas) & a 256gb for myself & we are both thoroughly satisfied with our new phones. Replaced my dads XR & my 8plus with the former becoming something of an annoyance in the lead up to Christmas. My 8plus has been used since April 2018 with a waterproof case. Superb camera & screen upgrades, the low light photography in a dimmed room with the blinds drawn late afternoon is like looking in the room with your own eyes & the 15x digital zoom out in nature on a sunny day is very flash but maybe not as good as Samsungs flagship’s. Coming from the old home button tap to wake & Face ID are wonderful & the latter mostly reliable (passcode still used maybe 1/20 times). Transfer for both phones is simple & intuitive & the worst ... MoreBought a 128gb for my dad in his early 70’s (Christmas) & a 256gb for myself & we are both thoroughly satisfied with our new phones.

Transfer for both phones is simple & intuitive & the worst part is waiting 10-30 minutes for your old phones data to be transferred. Not an Apple fanboy but buy yourself a decent waterproof case & you can expect a Pro model phone to last at least 5 years. With most upgrades now becoming iterative year after year better off holding on to them for longer especially when Apple provides a minimum of 5 years software support.

Pro's & Con's on new iPhone14

My new iPhone 14 is great. VZ gave me $800 on the trade-in of my iPhone 8 which was an offer I couldn't refuse. 5G where connected, improved camera, longer battery time. They did a good job transferring all of my apps from the old phone, but I'm having to reinstall a few such as home security. I haven't mastered the touch of turning off apps running in the background. Necessary for me to re-LogIn to the phone more than my previous phone, but I'm sure I haven't learned the shortcut. I do not use the facial recognition LogIn. New phone charger does not use a USB connector. Presidio2 Grip case case is great, magnetic, sturdy. The phone and case together are too big to fit in the cup holder of my car where I like to store the phone while driving. Lots of new tricks for ... MoreMy new iPhone 14 is great.

Worth it if Upgrading from an Old Model

My old phone was an iPhone 6s Plus, so whatever new phone I purchased would be a considerable upgrade. The new iPhone 14 Pro did not disappoint! I am thrilled with the quality of materials used and the overall design, making for the perfect upgrade - and what an improvement it is over my old phone. I am a hobby photographer so I was looking for a good camera in my new phone. I love the triple camera system with a 48MP main camera that can take photos and videos in ProRaw. I also like the additional telephoto and ultra wide lenses, although I use these less often. The dynamic island is also a welcome improvement over the big notch that featured on older models. I like that it is interactive, although I believe Apple could have improved it further by making it even ... MoreMy old phone was an iPhone 6s Plus, so whatever new phone I purchased would be a considerable upgrade.

Overall, I am highly satisfied with my purchase. However, if you have an iPhone 11 or newer, I would not recommend upgrading as all the changes since then have been incremental rather than major.
