apple Special attention has always been given display their own iPhoneIts quality has been improving over the years thanks to the use of complimentary panels in terms of color rendering and software features like True Tone.
If range iPhone 12 Pro First launch refresh rate “By iPhone”, a functionality first tested on the iPad and on Android smartphones (even cheap ones), is the latest iPhone 13 Pro They instead improved some of the technical characteristics of the panel (for example, see the maximum brightness), equaling some records Samsung And, specifically, her Galaxy S22 Ultra.

- HDR, true tone off, auto brightness off
- HDR, True Tone Off, Auto Brightness On
iPhone 14 Pro vs iPhone 13 Pro: Maximum brightness compared
