Different Look, Both Premium
According to current trends, there cannot be a more intriguing device than the iPhone. Apple removed the notch for the first time with the iPhone 14 Pro Max, replacing it with the Dynamic Island: essentially, a pill-shaped punch hole put in the center of the upper half of the screen. It not only houses the hardware sensors for the front camera and 3D facial recognition, but it may also function as a secondary screen for displaying basic information. The iPhone 14 Pro Max features a glass back and a stainless steel frame, and it is IP68 certified, making it waterproof (to a depth of 6 meters) and dustproof. It is more water resistant than the Vivo X90 Pro Plus’s IP68 certification, which allows it to travel underwater for up to 1.5 meters without being damaged. However, the Vivo is still a stunning gadget, with a leather option and eye-catching hues, as well as a curved screen with extremely thin bezels.
AMOLED vs Super Retina
On paper, the Vivo X90 Pro Plus offers a better display. It has a size of 6.78 inches, a Quad HD+ resolution of 1440 x 3200 pixels, a refresh rate of 120 Hz (it is adjustable from 1 to 120 Hz thanks to the LTPO 4 technology), Dolby Vision compatibility, HDR10+ certification, an in-display fingerprint sensor, and a peak brightness of 1,800 nits. The iPhone 14 Pro Max, on the other hand, is on the same level owing to its excellent color reproduction. The iPhone boasts a 6.7-inch diagonal Super Retina XDR OLED display with a resolution of 1290 x 2796 pixels, a refresh rate of 120 Hz, HDR10 certification, Dolby Vision compatibility, and a peak brightness of 2,000 nits. It does not use a fingerprint reader for identification, but it does use the more secure Face ID technology for 3D face recognition.
