That’s almost $1100 USD. I could find much better phones new here in the US for $1100. Hell I paid $1100 USD for my 14 Pro 256gb new but I know US prices are different than euros moneys.

Yeah that’s what I’ve gathered from all the comments. I own a nice quality clip on macro lens for my phone but even that doesn’t work as well on the new one, so I’ve gone forwards with an exchange to a pro max with the knowledge that the focus will be a bit further away but it will have a built in macro to help balance things out for me lol

Have you tried low data mode? According to apple this is what happens: Apps might stop using network data when you're not actively using them. Background App Refresh is turned off. The quality of streaming content might be reduced. Automatic downloads and backups are turned off. Services such as iCloud Photos pause updates. Built-in iOS apps and services adapt to Low Data Mode in the following ways: App Store: Video autoplay, automatic updates, and automatic downloads are turned off. Music: Automatic downloads and high quality streaming are turned off. Podcasts: The frequency of feed updates is limited, and episodes are downloaded only on Wi-Fi. News: Article prefetching is turned off. iCloud: Updates are paused, and automatic backups and iCloud Photos updates are turned off. FaceTime: Video bitrate is optimized for lower bandwidth.

Ever since I got my 14 Pro, I stopped using it altogether. Battery is amazing and I hate that it turns off 120hz variable refresh rate.

Also I have used it in older phones too and in my honest opinion, it never made a drastic difference. It felt like placebo
