iPhone 14 vs. 13:
  • crash detection
  • front-camera autofocus
  • 20 instead of 19 hours video playback battery life
  • 5- instead of 4-core GPU, but still the A15
  • slightly lighter, but also slightly thicker
  • main camera: ƒ/1.5 aperture instead of /1.6
  • photonic engine
  • cinematic mode now does 4K at 30 fps instead of just 1080p
  • action mode (I think this is improved video optical image stabilization)
  • front camera: ƒ/1.9 aperture instead of /2.2
  • same cinematic mode improvement
  • no more CDMA model
  • Bluetooth 5.3 instead of 5.0
  • US only: no more SIM card slot
  • high dynamic range gyro vs. three-axis gyro
  • high-g accelerometer instead of regular
  • dual ambient light sensors instead of one

iPhone 14 Plus vs. 14:
  • bigger screen (duh)
  • bigger battery life
  • inconsistent name
  • same camera

iPhone 14 Pro vs. 13 Pro:
  • always-on display
  • dynamic island instead of notch
  • crash detection
  • 48 MP main camera isntead of 12
  • front-camera autofocus
  • slightly better battery life
  • A16 instead of A15. Notably, they didn't talk about performance much.
  • screen estate has increased; ppi is the same
  • 2000 nits peak outdoor brightness
  • slightly taller, less wide, thicker, and heavier
  • apertures: Main: ƒ/1.78 vs. /1.5, Ultra Wide: ƒ/2.2 vs. /1.8, Telephoto: ƒ/2.8 vs. 2.8. That seems worse?
  • Second-generation sensor-shift optical image stabilization
  • true tone flash is now… adaptive
  • photonic engine
  • cinematic mode now does 4K at 30 fps instead of just 1080p
  • action mode (I think this is improved video optical image stabilization)
  • no more CDMA model
  • Bluetooth 5.3 instead of 5.0
  • US only: no more SIM card slot
  • GPS is now dual-frequency
  • high dynamic range gyro vs. three-axis gyro
  • high-g accelerometer instead of regular
  • dual ambient light sensors instead of one

I'm not comparing the 14 Pro Max; I presume it's the same changes.
