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 Galaxy Z Flip 5 still feels somewhat like an experiment, in that the fact that the device folds up is the big selling point. So much so, that Samsung is a little lax on things like camera quality.

Relatively durable, Great performance, Sleek design, Good interior display

So-so camera, Battery is only fine

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

A slight camera upgrade, new emergency features, and... not a whole lot else

Better selfie camera, Good battery life, Crash detection and satellite SOS are neat

It’s more like an iPhone 13S, Display is still 60Hz, eSIM transition will be easy for most but painful for some

It’s a great handset, but the improvements are so iterative that most of you will hardly notice what’s new.

Action mode offers truly superb video stabilization. eSIM makes it easy to switch phones (with other iPhones). Satellite SOS and Crash Detection add peace of mind.

Many of the specs remain the same as on the iPhone 13. Small battery gains. Photonic Engine isn’t as revolutionary as suggested.

Can a colossal new cover screen make what was an already fab foldable even better?

Sublime design and capable cover screen, Flagship-tier performance, Streamlined software makes good use of flip form factor

Cameras haven’t stepped up in a meaningful way, Battery life is just fine, and charging speeds could be better, No 128GB option means higher price barrier

With the Galaxy Z Flip 5, Samsung has debuted a new larger cover display which makes it easier to handle notifications, check the weather, control media and more, without opening the phone.

Huge Cover Screen is a welcome addition, Still one of the few foldables rated at IPX8 for water resistance, Good battery life, Great software support from Samsung, Good camera, but a step down from other flagships, New hinge allows it to fold flat, no gap, Base storage doubled to 256GB

Not all apps run on the Flex Window, The crease is still fairly large, Still no telephoto camera

The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5 is a big improvement on the Z Flip 4 with a larger cover display, improved performance and a gapless fold, but with increased competition in 2023, it’s not quite as tempting an option as it once was.

Premium look with no gap when folded, Powerful Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 for Galaxy chipset, Much more useful 3.4-inch cover display, You want a foldable that doesn’t compromise on power: The custom Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 for Galaxy is incredibly powerful, delivering some of the best benchmarks we’ve seen from...

Same 12MP cameras as Z Flip 4, Middling battery life, even for a foldable, Cover display software is surprisingly limited, You want a foldable with great cameras: The dual 12MP lenses are fine in well-lit conditions, but they don’t quite hold up in low-light scenarios – even compared to the best...

“The Galaxy Z Flip 5 keeps everything that worked about the Flip 4, then combines that with a larger cover screen and a nicer hinge.”

No more gap when folded shut, Extremely well-built, Hinge feels outstanding, Much more useful cover screen, Fantastic performance, Good and dependable cameras, 5 years of updates

The crease is still there, Mediocre battery life, Cover screen requires lots of tweaking

The Apple iPhone 14 is no match for the just-released iPhone 14 Pro, but if you ignore that, it’s one of the most effective phones around.

Great cameras, front and back, Fast performance, Good battery life, Innovative safety features

Design too familiar, Some average features
