What is the advantage of a USB-C over a lightning port? -----Original Message----- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Sieghard Weitzel Sent: Sunday, October 16, 2022 9:06 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: advise on updating phone.
The 14 Pro actually does use the A16 chip whereas the iPhone 13 Pro (and all other iPhone 13) use the A15. It is the regular iPhone 14 and 14 Plus which use the same A15 chip as your iPhone 13 Pro. I think personally upgrading from a 13 Pro to a 14 Pro is a complete waste of money, but it's your money I guess. With a 1-year old 13 Pro you should still get great battery life and while Apple has maybe increased the battery size in the 14 Pro by a bit and they always say the new phones get better battery life, I really can't see it making a difference worth spending hundreds of Dollars to upgrade. I have an iPhone 11 and I won't even upgrade, my battery capacity is getting down there so at best I'll spend whatever it costs here in Canada to put a new battery into my iPhone 11. Otherwise my iPhone 11 works great, yes, I don't have the LiDAR sensor or MagSafe, but given that next year's iPhone 15 will have a USB-C charging port I'll wait and of course it will have other improvements, one according to the rumours maybe the fact that next year's A17 chip which will be in the 15 Pro will most likely be based on 2 Nanometer architecture which may result in a much bigger improvement between this year's A16 and next year's A17 than what you get if you upgrade from last year's A15 to this year's A16. In fact, the speed advantage is so small even in the benchmark tests that you would never notice a real world difference.

Hi all, have a 13 pro currently. Am thinking to update to a 14 pro max for better battery life. Sales guy says if I update to a 14 pro I should get better battery life than the 13 pro since the tests Apple run are in a controled environment. I doubt this. >From what I gather the 14 pro plus isn't an update to the 13 pro max since it >still uses the same chip and not the updated one. Thoughts?
