As it turns out, a look at Apple’s quoted delivery times for the iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max show that shipments are already delayed until mid-December across the board…

iPhone 14 5G speeds

In the month since the iPhone 14 lineup has been in the wild, we’ve seen two reports that measured the average 5G download speeds between 38 and 50% faster than the last generation devices. Now a new study from Ookla corroborates those results showing an improvement of 40% and beyond for cellular performance on iPhone 14 and 14 Pro in the US. But one country saw a massive 130% increase in 5G median speed for the iPhone 14 Pro Max.

iPhone 14 Pro demand greatly exceeded Apple’s expectations, says Trendforce

iPhone 14 Pro demand | Seen at launch

iPhone 14 Pro demand was much higher than Apple expected, according to Trendforce data. It says that the company’s orders to suppliers had initially been for 50% of iPhone 14 models to be one of the two Pro models, but this has now been boosted to 60% – and may go as high as 65%.

This appears to have been balanced out by much lower demand for the iPhone 14 Plus, says the company, before going on to talk about the differentiators we can expect for the iPhone 15 Pro over the base models …

Feature Request: iPhone 14 Pro needs an option to take non-RAW 48MP photos (with no Smart HDR)

iPhone 14 Pro 48mp raw camera LiDAR scanner

iPhone 14 Pro comes with a 48-megapixel wide-angle rear lens for the first time on an iPhone. It’s the first upgrade in megapixels since the iPhone 6s in 2015, which came with a 12-megapixel rear camera. However, the only way to take a 48MP photo with iPhone 14 Pro is to use ProRAW or third-party apps – but I wish I could take compressed 48MP photos using Apple’s Camera app.

iPhone 14 Pro 48MP photo test slightly changes my mind [Diary]

iPhone 14 Pro 48MP | Sample photo of London skyline at sunset

I’ve said before that I was unlikely to use the iPhone 14 Pro 48MP resolution personally, and indeed I stuck to 12MP during a recent trip. But I was of course still curious to see how much of a difference the megapixel count makes in real-world photos.

My tests did lead me to change my mind to a small extent – so now I’d say that I’d expect to use the 48MP capability on extremely rare occasions, rather than never …

iPhone 14 Pro with the A16 processor

One of the differences between the base and Pro model iPhone 14 this year is that only the latter get the latest A16 chip. But a new piece today argues that this is a smaller difference than Apple might like to suggest.

iPhone 14 Pro camera review

It’s official: The iPhone 14 Pro camera is now good enough for me to use it as my only travel camera – something I couldn’t have even imagined five years ago.

I’d already made the switch from a heavy and cumbersome pro-body DSLR system to a much lighter and more portable mirrorless camera when travelling, but switching to an iPhone had still felt like an enormous step.

Using custom app icons has become more seamless with iPhone 14 Pro's Dynamic Island

Apple has never officially let users change iOS app icons. However, thanks to the Shortcuts app, anyone can create a home screen shortcut with a custom icon that opens a specific app. This process comes with the downside of showing a huge banner every time the user taps the icon, but iPhone 14 Pro and Dynamic Island makes using custom app icons much more seamless.

One of the key features of the iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max is certainly Dynamic Island – a new interactive area at the top of the screen that replaces the iPhone’s notch.
