The 'dynamic island' is quite a significant change to user experience. It's excellent how they've integrated this into the software.
Apple have used a 12mp sensor since the iPhone 6S, so the move to a 48mp sensor which is also physically larger and sports more optical zoom settings than before, is quite significant. Better low light, better resolution (even when binning down to 12mp), better range.
Always on display is nice but like others I'm not entirely convinced, mainly because of the glow at night. I imagine they'll improve it with software updates.
Crash detection could be a literal life saver. Probably not, but if you ever need it you'll be very glad it's there.
Battery and chip improvements will give an all round better experience.
Screen brightness better than ever, market leading 2,000 nits which is more than 60% brighter than the iPhone 13 Pro.
