While it's a shame that picture and sound quality haven't been upgraded, the iPhone 13 was great in these regards and the iPhone 14 is, too Excellent display Admirable headphone performance Solid build quality No upgrades to picture or sound Familiar design Notch is still present

Apple's latest non-Pro iPhone is superb - it's just that it's strikingly similar to last year's effort.

Still an incredible smartphone, Brilliant battery life gets a bit better, Excellent camera system gets a bit better

Last year’s Pro hardware, Wireless charging slow by modern standards, No USB-C; it’s now well overdue

While we have few complaints about the Z30’s imaging performance, without the Z50 ’s EVF, framing shots outdoors in bright sunlight with the Z30 was a matter of point-and-guess in many situations.

The Nikon Z30 is clearly designed with content creators in mind, particularly those intending to film vlogging-style content. It captures 4K/30p video from the full width of the sensor and 1080p video at 120 fps. Lens options are sparse, but it's paired with a respectable 16-50mm (24-70mm equiv) vibration reduction (VR) kit lens that's great for casual run-and-gun shooting. It will work for casual still images, but you're probably better off going with the Z50 for stills photography considering it has an EVF.

More like an iPhone 13S. The generational upgrades for the iPhone 14 are limited to a few subtle changes. At the same time, however, the base price climbs to 800 USD, while the only true innovation happens inside the iPhone 14 Pro series.

What’s welcome here is the usual Nikon attention to detail, responsive performance and robust construction, with access to a very wide, well-supported system of lenses and accessories, not only from Nikon but third party manufacturers too.

Attention to detail, Responsive performance, Robust construction, Great ecosystem, Affordable, Easy to use

Can get expensive with kits and extras, No eye-level viewfinder or integral flash, Pretty large

In essence, the Nikon Z30 is the Nikon Z50 without a viewfinder but with a vari-angle screen, a tally light, a new record button and the ability to record video for longer. By itself, the vari-angle screen could be enough to entice vloggers or would-be vloggers towards it rather than the Z50, but of...

Excellent build quality, Vari-angle touch-screen, Nice image quality

No viewfinder, 4K only up to 30p, Limited APS-C (DX) lens range
