Why would it be better? The 14 Pro Max is not only newer but has better cameras and a brighter screen with AOD if you need it. If you want/need a phone now the 14 Pro Max is excellent no need to wait unless your current phone is fine.

If you need a phone now, just get one. If you have an iPhone X or newer and it’s working fine just wait.

The iPhone updates have been unimpressive iteration upgrades for years. The iPhone 15 should see the largest changes in years and it likely when we will see USB-C thanks to the EU and India.

Current owner of Iphone 14 PM the rumors about bugs , camera problems , notifications delays no sound , screen lines are real My roommate has the 13 PM no problems and many Iphone 13 PM owners are saying they will not upgrade to Iphone 14 PM because the minor updates and software issues and they are going to wait for the 15 I was a android user for years and the first Iphone I purchased was the Iphone 14 PM because 13 PM and 14 PM are the same price why not get the newest right So hopefully they fix all the software issues

Seconding this.

What makes you think the predecessor would be a better model than the current pro max, OP? It’s not. It is however a perfectly good phone.

My opinion is, if money isn’t an issue, go for the 14 Pro Max. Get what you need and want now, there’s always going to be a newer model around the corner. In this case, the 15 isn’t even around the corner yet. Not even if you manage to snag one in release (and those things are going to be in short supply for several months after release, too, so factor that in.)

Gosh, this seems totally legit and not a scam that you’re spamming everywhere you can!

I’ve had no major issues with my 14 Pro Max and all the minor bugs have essentially been eliminated. Very pleased with the phone.

You upgraded to the ios 16.3

Yep no issues, even 16.2 was mostly stable for me.

Did your Iphone came out of the box with ios 16.2 or 16.1

Also no issues with my 14 Pro Max, using 16.3. I upgraded from a 13 Pro Max.

Got my phone launch day so 16.0

Mine came out of the box ios 16.2 why not 16.0 which is the original version Is it because different batches the manufacturer in the assembly line update the Iphone to the latest

Yes. The 14PM was underwhelming at launch and disappointing in reliability. Moreover the camera performance is compromised by overly aggressive processing.

Probably because of when you bought it.

Many of those problems will be gone in a few software updates.. still not even in the slightest a reason to opt for last years model if you don’t already have it.
