Apple’s camera upgrades add further distance between the iPhone 14 Pro Max and its cheaper iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus. As before, you get three sensors — wide, ultra-wide, and telephoto — but the hardware is new, and they protrude a little further from the rear of the smartphone than on last year’s model.
The main camera now uses a 48-megapixel sensor, up from the 12-megapixel unit in the otherwise most-recent model. Apple uses that in two ways, first relying on pixel binning — that is to say, combining data from clusters of pixels into a single pixel in the final image — to coax more color, detail, and brightness accuracy into the default 12-megapixel photo. It’s not a new method, but it’s new for Apple, and it’s been tightly integrated into its freshly-named Photonic Engine.
That’s fancy branding for things like Smart HDR, Deep Fusion, and the other computational photography magic that Apple has been using to bring more brightness into night shots and similar. The results are, generally, excellent, though there’s not a night-and-day improvement over what you get from an iPhone 13 Pro Max. Think more detail when you zoom in close, and a little more natural low-light enhancement. You can, if you want to, switch to ProRAW mode and capture the full, 48-megapixel image, though I suspect that’ll be a niche requirement.
