“The iPhone 14 isn't a huge upgrade compared to its predecessor. But with a great design, screen, performance, and cameras, that's far from a bad thing at all.”

Comfortable, high-end build, OLED screen looks fantastic, A15 chip performs great, Good camera upgrades, Dependable battery life, Helpful safety features

60Hz display, No telephoto camera, eSIM might be a pain for some

The iPhone 14 comes to market with the same launch price as the previous generation. At the same time, iPhone connoisseurs were more than disillusioned after the presentation of the new smartphone. Apple leaves large parts of the hardware unchanged and does not dare to change the design.

Top performance level despite last year's chip, Very high quality workmanship, Improved image and video quality, Excellent battery life

Hardly any innovations, Charging takes too long for 2022

Slightly better cameras but otherwise, not much of an update - buy the iPhone 14 Pro or switch to Android instead

Better low-light photography, Slightly longer battery life, Action mode gives super stabilised video

The same performance as the iPhone 13, No Dynamic Island or Always-On display, 60Hz screen

The Apple iPhone 14 isn’t a huge upgrade on the iPhone 13, yet it still is a great phone with a top camera, good battery life and all the iOS benefits.

Clever safety features, Very good battery life, Reliable camera, Fun colours, You’ve got an ageing iPhone: If you’re on an iPhone 11 or older, then the changes here will make a notable difference.

Stuck on a 60Hz display, Minimal differences to the iPhone 13, You’ve got an iPhone 13: The changes from Apple’s previous phone aren’t enough to warrant an upgrade this year.

For retro-camera lovers, the full-frame mirrorless Nikon Zf is the first proper Fujifilm alternative. It’s a more faithful reimagining of the Nikon FM2 than the crop-sensor Zfc, with lovely flourishes that includes brass dials, a threaded shutter button that accepts a cable release, and a new B&W mode. The Zf isn’t just about old-school looks, though – it also packs a punch, with Nikon’s latest processor, 24.5MP stills up to 30fps, its best in-body image stabilization yet, and powerful autofocus. You might not need the Zf for its photo and video prowess, but you’ll want it for how it looks and feels.

Beautiful design and gorgeous flourishes; New color profiles; Nikon’s best in-body image stabilization yet

Could be better served by Z7 II sensor; Limited choice of retro-styled mirrorless Z lenses; Memory card types limit performance potential

The Nikon Zf is a beautiful camera, but more than that, it's an excellent performer and great value, too.

Gorgeous design and build, Impressive 3D autofocus tracking, 8-stop IBIS / VR, Up to 30fps burst shooting (JPEG / electronic shutter), 10-bit H.265 video and N-Log

Massive crop at 4K60, Not the most comfortable grip

Given that the Nikon Z f has the 24.5MP full-frame sensor of the Nikon Z6 and Z6 II, and the Expeed 7 processing engine of the Z8 and Z9, it’s not surprising that that it can produce great images. However, the Z f is about more than image quality.

Magnesium alloy body, Traditional controls, Expeed 7 processor

No joystick on the back of the camera, No auto settings on the shutter speed or ISO dials

The Nikon Zf is a camera whose image quality and performance live up to its stylish looks, but its handling and operation isn't always quite as slick. Paired with smaller, lighter lenses, it's a joy, but your Z-mount options are somewhat limited at present.

Enthusiast photographers for whom style and design matter

Photographers using longer lenses or needing constant quick settings changes

Apple's latest non-Pro iPhone is superb - it's just that it's strikingly similar to last year's effort.

Still an incredible smartphone, Brilliant battery life gets a bit better, Excellent camera system gets a bit better

Last year’s Pro hardware, Wireless charging slow by modern standards, No USB-C; it’s now well overdue
