The famous portal DxOMark has finally spoken on the new iPhone 14 Pro and released his review on the photographic sector of the new top of the Apple rangewhich we remember being the same also on 14 Pro Max, which we reviewed a few days ago.

Starting from the summary data of the evaluation, iPhone 14 Pro obtains 146 points and is positioned directly on the second step of the podium, behind only Honor Magic 4 Ultimate which with its 147 points continues to hold the lead in the ranking, while immediately below we find Huawei P50 Pro at 143 points. We point out, for those who remember a slightly different ranking, that DxOMark has recently updated its evaluation criteria and has recalculated the scores of many smartphones already tested, changing different positions in the ranking. The new iPhone 14 Pro was therefore evaluated according to the most up-to-date standards

THE SCORES OF IPHONE 14 PRO

The final score of 146 is an overall result that evaluates the smartphone at 360 ° and is the result of the scores obtained by the smartphone in many other categories. Of the 5 main examined – photos, videos, bokeh, zoom and preview -, iPhone 14 Pro achieves 3 maximum scores for the category, more precisely in the sector video (149)in that bokeh (80) and in preview (91).

The latter is often a very underestimated aspect, but it is undoubtedly fundamental in the shooting phase, as it describes us how much the scene framed by the viewfinder will be consistent with the photo taken. According to the tests of DxOMark, iPhone 14 Pro offers practically perfect results from this point of view, giving the photographer the certainty that what he sees is exactly what he will find in the photo he is about to take.

Excellent results also with regard to the videoor, where iPhone 14 Pro proves to be the undisputed champion of the category, improving the already excellent results of the iPhone 13 Pro (still incredibly current) in categories such as stabilization, the fluidity of movies, the transition between the various cameras and in the focus. The management of HDR is also excellent, which tends to produce videos with a much more natural rendering than the competition.

Then there is another category in which iPhone 14 Pro gets the best result ever recorded so far, that is the new Friends & Family section in which it reaches 140 points. This is one of the novelties of the updated DxOMark protocol and aims to evaluate the ability of a smartphone to offer excellent shots and reliability in many everyday scenarios, weighing the effectiveness of zero shutter lag and other aspects necessary to take a sudden photo in a particular moment; in short, we can define it as comand a real indicator of the so-called point and shoot.

The analysis of DxOMark it also rewards the work done by Apple in integrating its first 48-megapixel Quad-Bayer sensor, a novelty for the Cupertino house but not for the mobile world in general. Despite this, the implementation carried out is exemplary and allows the smartphone to produce shots of the highest quality that also allows you to count on a zoom between 1x and 3x practically without any defects.
