Yea that’s what I was trying to say basically. iOS is still more fluid in general than android, but the difference is pretty small when you have two high refresh rate phones to compare. I have a Pixel 7 (non pro) which has a 90hz display, a Galaxy S22 which has 120hz, an iPhone 14 pro with 120hz and an iPhone 12 with 60hz; and the difference between the first three with 90-120hz screens is really small honestly, but the 60hz on my iPhone 12 feels like the stone ages comparatively. I think if Apple just upped the standard iPhones to 90hz no one would really be able to tell the difference between the standard and pro models in terms of software experience.

This question is too broad. On its own the 14 pro is a spectacular phone. However if you are comparing it to a 13 pro it’s not really a large upgrade at all. If you’re comparing it to a 12 pro it’s a solid upgrade just because the 120hz screen is a massive difference. Anything older than a 12 I’d say it’s a definite upgrade.

I’m going to strongly disagree on the upgrade from a 12 pro. I made the move from the 12 pro to the 14 pro and the 120hz screen is worth the upgrade alone. The rest of the phone is more debatable but that high refresh rate is a game changer once you get used to it. Is it worth upgrading from the 13 pro which also has a 120hz screen though? That’d I’d say definitely not worth it.

Just my 2cents. It’s a cool looking feature and is definitely nice to have, but it’s not a selling point on its own to upgrade to the pro series for dynamic island alone. I think the pro series is worth the upgrade for many other reasons, but the dynamic island is a “nice to have” feature more than a necessity.
