iPhone 15 Buyer's Guide - DON'T BE FOOLED!

Ғылым және технология

The iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Pro are finally here I want to do a buyer's guide on both of these phones because while both phones now look the same there are actually still a lot of small differences between these phones that I think a lot of people might overlook like software differences between the 48 megapixel camera systems, USB-C port differences, different designs, and other feature differences you need to know about like which phone actually has the biggest battery inside of it.

    I do have 1 big question 🙋‍♀️. Why guys at Apple 🍎, regarding the iPhone Pro Max lineup we always get the lame side of color choices? No 🍏 , 🍊, or 🍎 in their pro choices? In the basics only. 😮 This makes me a very sad 🐼! 😢

    No quandary for me. I have big hands and still type with one finger, hunt and peck. Also I buy phones for the cameras which is why I used Samsung Galaxy S series phones since the original Galaxy S thru the S21 Ultra. I bought a 13 Pro Max and after a week of use and watching numerous KZread videos to learn how to use it I switched to the iPhone for my daily driver. I'm definitely going to upgrade to the 15 Pro Max! I'm just hoping to get a blue phone. I've always bought black phones and even though I keep it in a case I still want a blue phone for a change. I'm slightly disappointed with the 5x optical zoom instead of 6x but it's not a deal breaker for me. The periscope zoom lens has been available on Samsung Galaxy S series phones for years so I'm definitely excited that it's now available on the 15 Pro Max.

I haven’t upgraded in over 3 years, so getting the 15 Pro (and I’ll probably sprint for the Max) is a big bump for me. I used to work for Apple, and would get the new phone every year, and would lose myself in the plethora of tech specs and nuances of the devices. You provided plenty of nuance, while never losing sight of the broad strokes that lie at the heart of this exciting decision. Thank you!

I do enjoy gaming so future proofing for that was a plus. But i must be honest, it was a tough decision between the iphone 15 and 15 pro -- if i werent intending to keep this phone for at least 2 years and werent so bothered about the screen feature, then i would have got the iphone 15. I was able to preorder the pro but there is part of me still thinking to get the regular 15... is that extra £200 really worth it for the screen, the camera, and the build

The features actually make this one feel like a genuine upgrade and worth the price they're asking for finally. I didn't own a 13 and 14 pro model so I wouldn't know if everything is new. But transfer speeds this high, charging is faster, pictures are better, the 120hz screen, little bit more ram to play around with now, this is nice.

So the difference between in the 3x zoom on the Pro vs Pro Max isn’t such a big deal. I rarely use the 3x zoom on my Pro Max anyway but I’m excited about that 5x zoom.

    iPhone 15 and 15 Plus looks way more appealing this year than last. What’s up with these dreadfully boring colors on the Pro’s??? It’s almost like Apple wants us (the consumers) to buy the 15 and not the Pro’s. I guess they figure they’re more likely to sell higher quantities of the “cheaper” iPhone. Apple, please make the Pro color-way more enticing next year for 16 please!

    Exactly right! That’s why I got the regular 15. First reason was because I wanted to downsize from a 13 pro max. Too big and heavy but the pink color definitely drew me instantly. Those other colors on the other ones are depressing and droopy looking.

    I have been waiting on the iPhone 15 promax to come out since sometime last year I currently have the s21 ultra but it seems to be lagging in several areas for whatever reason even though I've done the updates? I haven't had an iPhone since the 11 pro Max so I expect to see substantial improvements. The main thing that made me buy an Android was always more zoom and although the 15 promax may not have as much as soon as I had hoped it has enough to make it worth buying. Your video was informative and helped reinforce my decision to purchase the promax. I have already ordered the case and screen protector 0 and charging block and will order the phone Saturday. Great video, you have a friend in Columbus Ohio :-)!

I’ll probably stick to every 5 years or so for replacing. I do wish the pro max came in better colors. I’m a huge pink fan and I’m so tempted to get the plus just for that reason alone, but I’ll probably go for the pro max in white titanium and get a pink cover lol. Super helpful video. Thank you!

I usually upgrade every year though my cell phone plan, but I don’t really see any benefit yet. Unless you’re really into phone cameras, I don’t see the point in spending more money to get the 15 pro.

I liked photos and videos ( many Beach Boys concerts over the years). Is the Max going to give me that much in the optical zoom, or just go with the PRO with max storage. Not much into super telephonic photos, but some rare occasions and not miles apart. Was thinking about the PRO, but rethinking just the 15 PRO w/ 2TB.

    I JUST got the regular iPhone 15, and I personally love it. The only issue I have is that it gets slightly warm when I charge it, so I let it charge to 100% before I go to bed and take it off the charger. But other than that it’s a great phone and I recommend getting it if you plan to trade it in, which will end up being cheaper than just buying the phone all by itself. It also all depends on the add-ons you get with it

Also as I was thinking of getting the 256 GB upgrade. I kindof do want to get the pro model for the better display, better processor, and whatever else there was but at the same time I could buy the 15 right now and wait for the 17 Pro or something.

I won't get rich if I would save them, so I see no point, I will get the best there is since I'll have that phone for 2 years, not for 2 months.
