top 10 best phone in 2022

The iPhone 14 Pro Max is Apple's biggest and best smartphone, and in typical Apple fashion, it is both a powerhouse and an endurance beast. SPECIFICATIONS Brand: Apple Display: 6.7" OLED, 120 Hz, Dolby Vision HDR Dimensions: 160.7 x 77.6 x 7.9 mm Operating System: iOS Price: $1,099 Display Type: Flexible OLED, PenTile Diamond PROS Best-in-class outdoor screen legibility Excellent color accuracy & precision in all conditions Zero black smears, even at low brightness The best-in-class HDR viewing experience Super-efficient variable refresh implementation CONS Shadows slightly too steep at low brightness No manual white balance adjustment The tested unit exhibits screen discoloration around the perimeter at minimum brightness BUY THIS PRODUCT Apple iPhone 14 Pro Max SHOP AT BEST BUY SHOP AT VERIZONSHOP AT AT&TSHOP AT APPLE Navigate this article Hardware and features: Not your average OLED Brightness and power testing: More nits than you think Screen refresh testing: Adaptive smarts Color gamut and Spectra testing: Slightly more colors Contrast and tone response testing: Sunlight improvements Color accuracy and precision testing: Almost flawless calibration HDR10 reproduction testing: Apple's HDR experience is even better Final thoughts Hardware and features: Not your average OLED The first thing you'll likely notice on the display is the large cutout Apple has named Dynamic Island. It calls attention to itself; there is no subtlety nor playful effort in minimizing its presence. It was something I expected to quickly get over, as I do with all screen intrusions, but this is the first time I've felt it can truly be an eyesore. It's a pill-shaped cutout that houses the camera and can also show off information like Apple Wallet transactions and other alerts. It does offer some quality-of-life improvements, but I haven't found the experience all too revolutionary. This might change in the future, perhaps in a year or two when more apps make use of it. The dynamic island can occupy a considerable amount of screen estate As expected, the iPhone 14 Pro Max uses the latest and greatest tech available from Samsung Display (and LG Display beginning in 2023). But before delving further, it's important to stress that the OLED is not a simple case of Apple just "ordering" the best components from display vendors. Some may believe that each phone with similar hardware would be super comparable, which is not the case here. Apple develops its display driver IC completely in-house, with design elements not found on other flagship phones. The iPhone 14 Pro OLED possesses design elements not found on other flagship phones. One such example is its pixel structure. Since the iPhone X, the company has made use of much larger blue subpixels for its OLED compared to other phones. This theoretically leads to slower panel aging by reducing the rate of decay for the blue emitter, which has the quickest lifespan. Apple's red and green subpixels are also marginally larger, filling up more of the total area of the OLED panel. Compared to the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra OLED, the relative emissive area of the iPhone 14 Pro Max is about 40% larger. Subpixel comparison between the iPhone 14 Pro Max and the Galaxy S22 Ultra One of my favorite qualities of this screen is that it's the only OLED I've seen to almost completely mitigate the problem of slow response times for black-to-gray pixel transitions (also known as black smearing). On other OLEDs, this smearing of black pixels becomes a complete eye-sore when using dark-themed apps at low brightness, making interacting with UI elements feel less satisfying. Some companies address this issue by preventing the pixels from actually turning off, and leaving them the darkest gray the OLED can output. However, this reduction of contrast is super noticeable in a dark room. I'm happy to see that the iPhone 14 Pro does not appear to use this method, and it does indeed show zero pixel emission for pure black.
