The iPhone 14 and iPhone 13 are similar to each other but the company's newest models get additional features such as emergency satellite communication and crash-detection.

In the US, the iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus will not come with a SIM tray, which means they will only offer eSIM support, while other markets will continue to offer support for a physical SIM slot and an eSIM for another phone number.

All the models offer up to 1200 nits of peak brightness.

Under the hood, the iPhone 14, iPhone 14 Plus, and the iPhone 13 are powered by the A15 Bionic SoC. However, Apple touts a better performance in the newest models as compared to last year's offering thanks to the 5-core GPU in the newest models as compared to 4-core GPU in last year's offering. All the phones come in 128GB, 256GB, and 512GB storage options.

When it comes to photos and videos, the iPhone 14 and the iPhone 14 Plus get a dual rear camera setup with a 12-megapixel 1.9um main sensor paired with an f/1.7 aperture lens. There is another 12-megapixel sensor paired with f/2.4 aperture ultra-wide angle lens that has 120-degree field-of-view.

There is a 12-megapixel sensor paired to an ultra-wide f/2.4 aperture lens and on the front is a 12-megapixel sensor with f/2.2 aperture lens.

Apart from a slightly different camera setup, the iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus also have a few new tricks up their sleeve. A new stabilisation feature, called Action Mode, uses the phone's motion sensors to better correct video. There is also a Cinematic mode that is able to capture videos in 4K at 30fps and 4K at 24fps. Apple also touted the better low-light performance, thanks to its new Photonic Engine.

Apple does not officially disclose the battery capacities of iPhones but as per the company, the iPhone 14 offers up to 20 hours of video playback and the iPhone 14 Plus offers up to 26 hours of video playback compared to iPhone 13's up to 19 hours of video playback.
