Apple iPhone 11 Pro Max vs Apple iPhone 14 Pro

Our Verdict: If you've got the iPhone 11 Pro Max, the iPhone 14 Pro is three years of updates on from it. The 14 Pro 5G has the better camera on paper, 48MP versus 12MP, and the 14 Pro 5G supports 5G while the 11 Pro Max tops out at 4G. The 11 Pro Max has the bigger battery of the two, 3969mAh against 3200mAh, which usually means longer between charges, and storage goes higher on the 14 Pro 5G, up to 1TB against 512GB. If you're on the 11 Pro Max, the 14 Pro 5G is a real step up, but only worth it if the changes above matter to you.

If you'd rather pay up front, the 11 Pro Max is the cheaper buy at £180 SIM-free.
