When the phone was first invented it was only used to make calls. Phone was originally invented to talk over long distances. But nowadays we use phone as a small computer. Where we can do almost all our daily needs. In the past we used phones to make calls, now we use them as media players, voice recorders, cameras, and more. Focusing on these, companies are bringing new upgrades in phones. Currently, the more upgrades the phone is getting, the more popular the phone is. One of the brands of phones is iPhone. Currently, iPhone and Samsung’s flagship phones have the best cameras. Different models of iPhone have different camera features.

Iphone 14 pro max vs Iphone 13 pro max Practically Camera Test:
There is not much difference between the cameras of iPhone 13 Pro Max and 14 Pro Max. But see below the differences that we practically found.
Main Camera:
Picture 2 is prime size. There is no noticeable difference here. However, the picture of iPhone 14 Pro Max seems sharper to me.
There is a lot of difference here. The iPhone 13 Pro Max’s picture is good but it doesn’t cover dark areas well. If you look at the writing on the leaves and buildings, you will understand that the iPhone 14 Pro Max has processed the colors and dark areas well.
Here too some difference is being noted well. Color accuracy of buildings with sky did well on the iPhone 14 Pro Max.
Color accuracy is correct in iPhone 14 Pro Max, but here iPhone 13 Pro Max has focused on brightness, that’s why the picture of iPhone 13 Pro Max looks beautiful in this picture, but the picture quality is the best of iPhone 14 Pro Max, which you will understand when you zoom.
Night:
In terms of low light, the camera of the new phone of iPhone is the best. Note the two pictures, the iPhone 13 Pro Max could not control the light well in the picture, while the iPhone 14 Pro Max controlled the light and kept the color accuracy right.
Here the picture of iPhone 13 Pro Max looks more beautiful than iPhone 14 Pro Max. But the iPhone 14 Pro Max has kept natural colors while the iPhone 13 Pro Max has given a slightly warm type of picture output. 2 pictures are the best However, iPhone 14 Pro Max has more details.
Ultra Wide:
Here the dynamic range of the two pictures is almost the same. But like the main camera, the light controlling of the iPhone 14 Pro Max is better than that of the iPhone 13 Pro Max in the ultra wide camera. iPhone 14 Pro Max can focus well in dark areas. So here the leaves of the tree are seen in green color.
Different people will have different opinion about this picture Because iPhone 13 Pro Max is giving one output and 14 Pro Max is different. But both the pictures are beautiful in their respective places. Different people will like different pictures here So here 13 Pro Max and 14 Pro Max cannot be left behind.
13 Pro Max will be ahead in this picture because if you notice, you will understand that there are more details in the picture of 13 Pro Max. And since the 13 Pro Max makes the pictures a bit warmer, here the picture of the 13 Pro Max looks beautiful compared to the 14 Pro Max.
I showed the same for a picture wide camera, iPhone 14 Pro Max was ahead for dark area control, here also iPhone 14 Pro Max will be ahead for dark area control.
Night:
iPhone 14 Pro Max or 13 Pro Max can’t beat anyone in terms of ultra wide camera. Because iPhone 14 Pro Max gives good output in some pictures and iPhone 13 Pro Max gives good output in some pictures. For example, I personally like the picture quality of the iPhone 13 ProMax in this picture.
While iPhone 13 Pro Max looks good, iPhone 14 Pro Max has better picture output here. If you follow the road lights, you will understand that the light flares are less in 14 Pro Max compared to iPhone 13 Pro Max. In addition, the warm output of 13 Pro Max can be edited and warmed in the picture taken on iPhone 14 Pro Max.
3× Optical Zoom:
The iPhone 14 Pro Max does better when it comes to 3x zoom. We knew the iPhone 13 Pro Max’s 3x camera was the best. There, the picture of the telephoto lens of 14 Pro Max is seen a little brighter.
As for the 3x picture, there isn’t much of a difference between the two phones in daylight. Let’s see if there is any change here in terms of Knight.
Night:
Yes, this year’s iPhone 14 Pro Max has upgraded all the lenses for night. In the picture above, the iPhone 14 Pro Max has reduced the light reflection to show the picture better.
The iPhone 13 Pro Max is weaker than the iPhone 14 Pro Max when it comes to light brightness. The iPhone 14 Pro Max can control the light and deliver beautiful picture output while the iPhone 13 Pro Max delivers an average picture output.
Macro Mood:
There are very few people who use macro mode on phones. So, there is no major update on macro, and unlike other phones, iPhone does not provide a separate macro camera. Macro photos are taken using the iPhone’s ultra-wide camera. Both the phones are giving the best output when it comes to macro pictures.
Although there is no change in the macro mode, the picture quality of the iPhone 14 Pro Max seems a bit sharper in this picture.
Portrait:
In terms of portrait pictures, Samsung’s edge detection is currently better than iPhone’s. But since here we are differentiating between iPhone 13 and 14 Pro Max, I will talk about them here. In terms of portrait picture details, the iPhone 14 Pro Max has gone a long way. But in terms of edge detection, I think the iPhone 13 Pro Max does better.
Follow the direction of the model’s hair. The iPhone 13 Pro Max is able to detect edges well near the hair while the iPhone 14 Pro Max blurs the hair. In other words, iPhone 13 Pro Max is better in terms of edge detection.
However, when it comes to details and picture quality, the iPhone 14 Pro Max will easily beat the 13 Pro Max. Because the photo details of iPhone 14 Pro Max are eye-catching. You can see if you zoom in the above picture.
Night:
Even in the field of night, the iPhone 13 Pro Max is doing unbelievably well in terms of edge detection. Follow the victim’s hair. Despite the extra light flare, the iPhone 13 Pro Max does a nice edge detection along the hairline. Also, in terms of color, the color of iPhone 13 Pro Max is a little deeper.
Also see here, iPhone 14 Pro Max blurs the side hairs but iPhone 13 Pro Max keeps them in focus. But if you look at the details, you will understand that the sharpness of iPhone 14 Pro Max is much higher than iPhone 13 Pro Max. But I find the iPhone 13 Pro Max to be better for portraits. Comment your opinion.
Front Camera:
The photos of 14 Pro Max on the front camera look good because iPhone 13 Pro Max does not capture warm photos. The iPhone 14 Pro Max takes natural pictures with natural colors. Also, if you look at the background, you will understand that the background blur of the iPhone 14 Pro Max is more because the iPhone 14 Pro Max has a slightly larger lens.
There is no difference here. Both and Best.
Night:
There is no difference here either. Only the color has a little bit more. Besides, the background light of iPhone 14 Pro Max is visible more.
Finally we see a major upgrade to the front camera. Here’s a major update with an eye toward lens flare. Note the road lights in the background on the iPhone 13 Pro Max. There is lens flare. But no lens flare is seen in iPhone 14 Pro Max, it is a big success of iPhone 14 Pro Max.
My Opinion:
Above are the differences between iPhone 14 Pro Max and iPhone 13 Pro Max cameras. After thorough research I have come to understand that the major update in iPhone 14 Pro Max is more details and better light controlling/dark area control in the back camera. And the front camera has an upgrade in color and lens flare. Apart from that, no major changes are seen. So if you’re looking to shift from the 13 Pro Max to the 14 Pro Max for cameras, consider whether you should go for the 14 Pro Max for these upgrades. My opinion would be if you are not sensitive then there is no need to take 14 pro max. But if you want to take it for fun or to run the latest, then you can take it. Let us know by comment whether you are getting the latest phone.
