I like how you said, "the iPhone 15 feels intentionally held back." I think Apple is purposely trying to push us all to the Pro models and that the "regular line" will see less and less features as we go into the iPhone 16 / 17s. Good video as always.

The most profit is always going to reside with the top tier model and it's part of business these days to deliberately put out a few products with there being a cheaper frugal product and more expensive frivolous product. And for shits & giggles I wanna point out that Apple is the only company I know of who sells a stand separately for $1,000 buckaroos. 😯

they ARE doing that, all the inovations are saved only for the pros and that's, for me, basically saying there consumers are stupid to buy the most expensive because the basic one is just a copy of the previous pro even tough they CAN make the pro features into a basic one

I’m not sure what you guys are talking about. The lower tiers are getting the A16 Bionic, upgrade from the regular 14’s from last year. Plus it gets Dynamic Island, matte finish on the back, curved edges, updated modem, updated U1 chip, updated cameras, etc. so basically you just want them to put out only two models, the smaller pro and bigger pro. Just say that instead of bitching about the lower models every year

So you want the iPhone 15 to have 120 Hz, the third camera, faster charging speeds and be the same price it is now? How do Apple sell two phones at two different price points without taking features away on the cheaper one? What are you people talking about? "The 128GB iPhone 15 is really good storage but it feels like Apple should have given us a 1TB base model. It just feels like they didn't so we'd need to pay more for the 1TB option"

I think they would be better off reducing the price by £100 or more- keeping the 60 hz display etc. if it had a 90-120hz display and macro feature on the ultrawide and a few more bells and whistles the current price would be more appropriate!

This was very helpful, thank you so much 💯

Love your reviews Ella, and thank you for not letting Apple off the hook for their curious design decisions on the 15!!

You're making great points in your video, but coming from an iPhone Pro 12 with 60 Hz refresh rate, I'd say it's quite acceptable in most cases. Granted, if somebody is used to 120 Hz it's perhaps hard to "downgrade", but if you have an older iPhone model then I think that the 15 still makes a lot of sense.

I really liked your video Ella! One thing i noticed with my iphone 13 from work and my s21 plus private use. The 120hz refreshrate on the s21 compared to my 60hz iphone is just a slightly difference. What i noticed is that apple made hes software just smoother that is scrolls much smoother on social media or like the browser. Maybe thats why they didnt bother much about the refreshrate?🤔 Let me know what you think about this subject and what you use for daily!😁

Kudos for posting an honest review, rather than trying to sugarcoat the facts. 60 Hz display is definitely an embarrassment in front of the Android lineups and that needs to be addressed by Apple. There are decent deals available on the iPhone 14 Pro Max which is definitely a better value for money than the regular iPhone 15. The only added advantage is the USB-C when compared to 14 PM.

I came from iPhone 12, then switched to iPhone 15 Plus, I felt there’s a difference (of course I’m not used with the Pro models). Nice points! I like how you pointed things than the mainstream did.

Nice professional informative review. Well done.

very good review. Thank you!

Very helpful. I was all ready to switch to iphone but theack of AOD and USB 3.x is a bit of a deal breaker. I'll wait for the S24 on case Samsung offer 7 years support like they are for Tensor

Thanks for the amazing review.

I heard that the slower usb speed might have to do with the SOC handling usb communication. Coming from the iP 14 pro that only support usb 2 speeds, that could be why the iP 15 only handles the same rather than it being an intentional software defined cap.

Great review!!

I personally don't mind the 60Hz when scrolling all that much, but I mind it a LOT when it comes to the swipe home animation. It just looks horrible and it feels much more noticeable when there's a frame drop or stutter(something wonderful that iOS 16 finally brought to the iPhone 🙄) compared to on a 120hz display like my 13 Pro.

Hey Ella, sorry my comment is really long so you may want to read from the comment section of the video instead rather than the notifications dropdown box menu...I liked and Loved the way how she was really very specific and clear about certain things and details of information directly to her personal youtube fans here through KZread on this one particular video of hers, truth is that and truth be told that the some of the newer versions of Apple iOS are negative with samsung android have good results but when you compared certain Iphones to other Iphone versions and brands for Iphone iOS rather than to samsung android...Well either way some Iphones get more of the left side where the trees are and less of the right side where the buildings are located compared to other Iphones just like how she was doing comparing the iOS Iphone directly to Android's...The Pros and Cons from you yourself there Ella was specific and easy to Understand.!!! Although I still prefer Apple because of Iheart Music AppleTV and Movie Apps from iOS including the Apple App Store not just it's Apple Ipad's Gaming included plus not to also mention as an Asian Canadian from upper North America, I have a cousin who works at Apple in the Sale's Section and certain Iphones are better than others while a lot of Multicultural Emergency Personel for the 9/11 Responders generally tend to use Apple iOS...Android doesn't have those kinds of types of fun Relaxational Young Feeling Apps that Apple does but either way comparing either to other Apple versions or even comparing to samsung, well one phone will have the leftside except for the rightside cut off while the other phone will have the rideside cut off and the leftside showing on the picture phototakes.!!! While with that being mentioned, android was always more of a workphone while Apple iOS iphones were always just like the Ipad such as used for both young and relaxational use based purposes only plus the Colouring and the Design of their actual Iphone products casing cases both back and front of the phone was better looking that samsung androids although some Samsung Phones compared to other android products rather than iOS phones were better than the other samsung features...Apple fully wins for me while samsung only for work purposes only except community volunteering and family use and that's basically that.!! Both are good though with Apple's iOS Iphone Devices and Products having longer years in life expectancy compared to samsung products for Apple.

i understand your point because i also had that thought before. i think it's appeal starts to get noticeable when you are the kind to just put your phone at a single place anyway at home when youre not using it. like if it's not doing anything anyway, might as well charge it while knowing that when i already need it, i wont have to deal with unplugging it. charging your phone multiple times a day using a wire will wear the charging port and having the peace of mind that i can charge while keeping my port with less wear is nice. also, by knowing where i always leave it makes my problem of actually misplacing my phone less of an issue. hope that answers your question

Great to listen to some much needed honesty from North American based reviewers. Well done Ella. I understand that reviewers across the Atlantic are biased and even blindsided by Apple products. Especially Americans and not necessarily Canadians. Apple is a US company after all and so there is an obvious sense of pride and patriotism. But people outside the United States, around the world, are fully aware that Apple products are limited and way too expensive for what they are. Americans in particular don't realise how expensive these devices are in other countries and so the value for money is even worse - rubbish tbh. I have been an iPhone user for a decade but the recent UK price increases have meant that I have moved to Samsung just out of principle. I hadn't appreciated just how much better Samsung phones are in many areas, even though I still use my iPhone 13 mini for business. I played around with the new iPhone 15 Pro but I decided to go with a Samsung S23 ultra instead because the display is far better and the battery isn't even a topic worth discussing. In fact, I have stopped using my iPad mini with Apple pencil because I am just using the ultra S23 pen for everything I used the iPad mini for. Times are changing and Apple needs to wake up.

Nah most of what you said ain’t true. The base model iPhone 15 is 800, while base model s23 is around 900. The way you feel about Apple is the way others feel about Samsung. People make fun of apple for their prices, but are willing to shell out the exact same amount of money on an Samsung. Samsung literally has the most expensive smartphone on the market with their Galaxy fold Z 2. If both phones have similar capabilities, then really it’s the dealers choice. You get mad at people for choosing Apple, while others might get mad at you for choosing Samsung. You feel like the other mainstream reviews are biased towards apple because they gave them good reviews, but only agree with this creator because she supported your ideas of apple. Everyone is bias and so are you. If she would make a similar review about Samsung, you would talk about her being “biased” because it’s not an American company. There’s a reason Apple is the 1st or 2nd richest company in the world. And how long before you start to justify Samsung exorbitant prices?

Very good review 👍👍⚡️

I like the live photo of Yoshi, is it an app or some where you get it from?

Great review

Even the Pixel 6 from a few years ago has a 90hz refresh rate and has an all-day battery, and you can find one for like $250 these days. Getting last year's flagship Android phone is usually a better value than getting this year's iPhone.

Yeah, I tried one of these out at an Apple Store, and instantly noped out because of the refresh rate. I've apparently gotten really used to 120Hz on my 13 Pro Max. I know some people claim not to notice or care... but given that you can get a low-end Android phone with even 90Hz... it's not a great look. On the USB 2.0 thing... my theory is this: On the Pro models, Apple noted they included a USB 3.1 controller on the A17 Pro chip itself. So, since the regular 15s are using last year's chip (with a USB 2.0 controller also on chip), they probably had to weigh if it was worth adding an external USB 3.1 controller chip on the PCB, or if it made more sense to just give it a year until the base iPhones got the A17, since like 5 people will use wired data transfer anyway.

I've found some people seem more sensitive to it. I can barely tell a difference between 60 and 120 for anything I do on my phone. If I don't compare side by side, I don't even notice it. Even on my computer with a 30 inch monitor, for normal day to day tasks I cannot tell the difference in it at 60hz and 144hz.

Your last theory is wrong. iPad Air and Mini already got 10x faster data speeds (half of 15 Pro) than 15 with older chips, which in this case are A14 and A15. Saying A16 doesn't have a better, or at least the same controller, as A14 and A15 is absolutely ludicrous It's just Apple being cheap and wanna force us buy Pros to get anything decent

I am done with buying iPhone base models (ex iPhone 15), missing the promotion is just a dealbreaker for me and the company, as Ella says, even Old Android phones and budget phones does have 120 hz. I cant take Apple serieous anymore, the base models isn’t exactly budget phones its actually very expensive.

I feel like Apple comes up with the pro models first and then thinks about what they can remove/downgrade to still sell it as the new model without getting too much into the older models territory where it would be too obvious.

Ella will iphone 15 plus get discontinued after the 16 comes out?

Eyyy Vancouver in the background!

hi which one is better to normal use phots and movies regular 15 or 15 pro max? regards

The USB speed is held back by the SOC. It's because it's using the A16, instead of the A17 SOC.

3:54 I am thinking 120 Hz uses more battery on the refresh.

Same colour as mine But may i ask if your experiencing getting hot while using the camera or vedio calls? Because just week ago I found out while using camera its super hot🥹🥹 and made me worry😢

If your going to buy the regular model please consider testing the cameras. Smart hdr is really bad in most cases for selfies, adding over sharpening to your face. and u cannot disable as u can’t take proRAW photos on regular iPhones. iPhone 12, 13, and 14 also have this issue.

You got a subscribe from me. I’m upgrading from 11 but I’m disappointed as the Sumsungs look bomb and are cheaper in Australia- but because I have a Mac, smartwatch and iPad and I love that all sync. I’ll think I’ll get the 14 pro, plus or max.

the iPhone 15 is not trying to be competitive with other phones. It's just trying to be a good enough upgrade from iPhone 14. Average consumer wont care about 120hz much and wont care about fast data transfer. That's the truth for base iPhone users.

Username, lol. Agree but consumers should know the competition provides more, for less cost. Not sure they know. It’s the cost savings for apple at their customers expense that bothers me.

@@ArdaSReal the iPhone 15 is good, it is. But if you want 120hz and those extra features. Then get an Android phone in a similar price if not cheaper. That is if you don't mind Android.

3:17 The A23 5G is actually 60-120Hz adaptive. The A23 4G is 90Hz. I just thought I'd point that out because you have the A23 5G highlighted.

Best review i saw ❤🎉

I think all the things it lacks just don’t matter for most people. I “downgraded” from a pro iPhone and I’m happy with it. The weight and overall usage for me is really great. The cameras are great and you don’t really need more unless you’re doing 300x crops. If you are, you should just get a real camera.

But 11 pro and 12 could also do what you said. So what's the point of that 15. because as I understand it, 12mp or 24mp makes no difference to you.
