iPhone 14 Pro vs iPhone 17: Watch This Before You Buy or Upgrade!

Is it time to retire the iPhone 14 Pro? Today I’m doing a humble side-by-side comparison between my trusty Gold iPhone 14 Pro and the brand new Lavender iPhone 17. For years, the biggest gap between the "Pro" and "Base" models was the display. But now that the iPhone 17 finally has a 120Hz ProMotion screen, is the Pro model still necessary? I’ve been using the iPhone 17 as a daily driver and the 14 Pro as my backup running the latest iOS 26, and the results surprised me. In this video, I cover the design differences, the massive performance leap with the A19 chip, battery life, and the cameras—including the new square selfie sensor and whether the lack of a telephoto lens on the 17 is actually a dealbreaker.
