It has begun one of the best topic in the town now. The new iPhone 14 pro max has introduced new design similar to 13 series but with new stunning looks.

On the back, there are three camera lenses which have been bigger than before. This has made it slightly heavier and thicker than the previous one. The measurement is 6.33 x 3.05 x 0.31 inch. The weight is only 8.47 ounces.  The weight is not too much. At first it was feeling heavy but some times later, it seems that the weight is perfect.

There are four color options available for the consumers. Space Black, Silver, Gold and Deep Purple are these colors. I think the purple color is the most elegant one. You can add matte glass back for better safety. The phone is IP68 water resistance.

Wait! Something is missing. Where is the SIM card tray? Apple has removed the SIM card tray for the US models. There it has included the eSIM technology. There is good news that you can add two active numbers and one is your personal one and other will be for business purposes.
