Apple iPhone 13 Pro Max vs Apple iPhone 14
Our Verdict: The iPhone 14 is the follow-up to the iPhone 13 Pro Max a year later, so the two are close. There's more battery in the 13 Pro Max, 4352mAh to 3279mAh, which usually means longer between charges, and the 13 Pro Max offers up to 1TB of storage versus 512GB on the 14 5G. The 13 Pro Max has the bigger screen, 6.7" against 6.1", and the 14 5G uses an OLED panel, which gives it richer contrast than the 13 Pro Max's LCD. The differences are small, so buy the 13 Pro Max if it's cheaper; the 14 5G just gets software updates for longer.
Buying outright, the 14 5G starts at £230 SIM-free.
