It's interesting you mentioned the shutter sound that you cannot turn off in phones sold in Japan. I learned that it's SIM-card dependent. If you use a Japanese iPhone outside Japan with a SIM card from a non-Japanese carrier, there is no shutter sound. Though... I was just in Japan recently as well and a lot of my friends who live there had iPhones where the shutter sound didn't go off. Either they bought the phone overseas or they used an app that does not trigger the shutter sound.

What's the warranty situation since you bought it outside the States? Do you have to send it back to Japan so Apple can service it, or will they honor and service it within the States?

[@Denki]

I'll probably have to get it serviced in Japan, but I am there often enough where I can make that happen should issues occur.

[@bubbledoubletrouble]

If you purchase AppleCare+, you can get it serviced wherever there’s an Apple store (barring lack of parts; each phone actually has four variants); otherwise warranty coverage only applies in the country you purchased it in.

[@Denki]

@@bubbledoubletrouble The only thing is that because we buy iPhones every year as part of the job, I almost never get Applecare. I've been lucky enough to never have to get repairs or RMAs done - but here's hoping there isn't some mass scale defect that requires me to get Japanese warranty service

I’m still rocking my iPhone X but was planning on upgrading this year… but now I wonder if I should wait another year. I am seriously concerned about how durable this phone is. Maybe I try to find a 14 Pro somewhere instead.

[@leftoverpizza01]

Wait it out. Get a battery replacement in the Apple Store to get you through another year.

[@Denki]

The only reason why I would is waining support for the X on iOS. I don't think there will much of an issue waiting though tbf

[@jjunture]

@@leftoverpizza01 Good call on the battery. 77% battery health means it doesn’t make it through the day ever.

[@jjunture]

@@Denki Thanks Ken. I think that will be the way to go. I was bummed that iOS 17 wasn’t going to be available for the X, but it’s not the end of the world to wait. Too many warning signs, and as you can imagine, I like to hold onto my phones a while.

[@fallin5427]

The 15 Pro is fine, it's just the 15 Pro Max that's really suffering. If you haven't watched the JerryRigEverything video for yourself, I recommend you do. From a structural standpoints the phones are great, and the display glass ("ceramic shield") is the best it's ever been it seems. The back glass however is failing easier than in previous years.

[@PixelsPeeper]

[@ahmedothman6522]

How is the delta is 0.7 grams? And how is the phone is 8 grams.. something is not right about the numbers.

Can you verify for us, Ken, about the overheating issues while using Instagram? Thanx

[@TeaBurn]

Now I kinda want a Japanese iphone 15...that sim tray makes it worth it despite the always on shutter sound.

[@wd8005]

If you’re in the US just take a trip to Canada and buy a Canadian iPhone 15. Same model number as the Japanese iPhone but you can turn off the shutter sound whenever you please. You can turn off the shutter sound of Japanese iPhone as long as it’s on iOS 15 or higher, the phone is located outside Japan AND you insert a Sim from a non Japanese Carrier. Even if you use your Japanese iPhone outside Japan without inserting a sim, you can’t turn off the shutter sound again. You must insert a non Japanese Sim Card to be able to turn off shutter sound. Beware that if you put the Japanese iPhone in Airplane mode, you can’t turn off the shutter sound again same thing if you visit Japan even if you have a non Japanese sim card, the iPhone will detect you’re in Japan and you can’t turn off the Shutter Sound again.

[@dustinhilltenor]

Has the ProMotion issue been fixed on the new iPhones? I have the 13 Pro Max (LOVE it), but I notice the 120Hz is flaky at best... Reading some online forums, it seems to get "stuck" at certain refresh rates, sometimes. My m2 iPad ProMotion is far clearer for a direct in-home comparison.

[@Denki]

I never noticed any ProMotion weirdness with my 14/15 Pro Max unless it was really getting hot and throttling

[@9horizon40]

guys upgrading from iphone 12 . should i go for an iphoen 14 pro or an 15 pro . poeple be saying abt its over heating issues and durability . and yea i do use an case and screen protector every time . THE ONLY THING I CANT DECIDE IS ITS DURABILITY AND HEAT PROBLEM . HOPE SOMBODY HELPS ME OUT

[@leftoverpizza01]

14 pro is not a good deal at all. Since the port change has happened, you should go with regular 15 if you wanna save money or if money isn’t an issue, go for the 15 pro. Since you’re coming from 12, you won’t feel the 15’s lack of pro motion display. I’m currently using the 13 mini and have an iPad Pro with pro-motion display and even I don’t notice the differences. I’m hoping they bring back the mini by the time I’m ready to upgrade 🤞

[@Serbofreak]

I've heard complaints that it overheats.

[@RossMKF1]

Didn’t know you were an F1 fan that’s sick! My dream is to go to a race one day!

[@bluemist_ch]

Tip for Japan or Japan-bound iPhone users, the Live Photos feature will give you a gentler tone than the abrupt shutter sound, so I usually turn that on all the time.

[@blueroy1993]

I am confused about denkis findings about it heating up more than the 14 pro. I had a 14 pro max and it heated up way more and way faster than my 15 pro max now. Is it different for different users?

[@extra4542]

It's not happening to everyone but there's definitely a lot of people complaining bout overheating for the 15 pro series. Of course we can never know how many are actually experiencing this but it's common enough to be a concern for me personally, along with the worse durability

[@sammyocean8896]

I ordered the 15 pro and after transferring everything over from my 13pro it got pretty warm and it was concerning the next day also on my first full charge. Now it’s fine. I took my case off my 13 pro and charged it up also and that was just as warm if not warmer. I guess I never noticed it with case on. I’m confident my new pro will be durable long term. Not even stressing about it anymore

[@dylanguerrero8053]

what's with the overlap between tech heads and Formula 1?

[@JMMeneses]

Did you reserve yours before going back to Japan? Sim free options seems to be out of stock everywhere here. Or could it possibly be that they have more stocks in Tokyo than in Kansai where I am now.

[@Denki]

I had one in my cart a few times right when preorders opened, but couldn't proceed with my US credit card. So a friend of mine helped to open a Rakuten Mobile account, since I was in need of a Japanese number anyways for hobby stuff. Rakuten phones are also SIM-free on top of being cheap service to maintain, and yeah it was about an hour outside of Tokyo. Funny enough though, on release day they had 256GB of every color available without preorder

[@JMMeneses]

@@Denki Gotcha! Rakuten’s option sounds pretty tempting since I find myself here 2-3 times a year, but I’ll try pushing my luck even more for the sim-free variants since I’m going for that Tax Free discount. 🤣 Aside from checking out stores on the golden route, I’ve been to Kobe, Himeji, Okayama, and even to Kurashiki… And yup. Still out of stock even in those rather rural places. Haha Oh, and I appreciate the tip man. Thanks!

[@MrBigBoy4Life]

Using a phone without a case is like having sex with a one night stand without a condom.

[@_Tree]

Adding the action button and the USB-C port on the 15 Pro Max is an upgrade, but not enough for me to say that they're innovative. Apple has been too conservative for my taste for years

I use the shutter button and manual mode everytime I take raw uncompressed pictures since I only use the raw format and record 4k videos every time with my sony xperia 1 iv. I just wish the sony video recording apps supports 4k uncompressed video. When I record 4k videos, it says mp4 but I want the 4k uncompressed version as an available option for those that want uncompressed video recording with any resolution including 4k. Ssds are more affordable nowadays and I use the motion cam pro app to record 4k uncompressed. I recorded a 10 second uncompressed 4k video and it already uses 2gb lol.

[@EyeCanShootFL]

Had mine since the 21st. Day early before shipping in the USa. Overheating, check. Dimming when overheating, while in 73 degree room with no case, just viewing videos... check. Battery life is worst than my 83% battery life 13 pro max.. Check. Worried about bending, of course after Jerry Rig Everything did his video.... CHECK. No discoloration as of yet but I have a white phone so maybe that is coming? Going to be interesting to see as the promax didn't really have the numbers sold that the other models have and we are already having problems.

Short answer: if you have a 12 pro or newer dont upgrade. Anything older if you have the spare money go ahead. No need for a double digit yt vid :)

I would consider UrAvgConsumer the pinnacle of sellout reviews. My guy even going as far as calling out companies in other videos for not reaching his prices and calling everyone broke. Also, giving excellent reviews to shitty products that paid for the ad. iJustine being a veeery close 2nd place. With Linus being in 3rd place before we reach MKBHD and MWTB.

[@leftoverpizza01]

MWB is more cringe than anything. He’s basically MR. Beastifying his channel with that adhd level of energy. It seems like he is forcing excitement out of nothing. I don’t find mkbhd to be sell out at all. He just has so much influence that he can’t just go out and bash companies on every little things without affecting sales of products. Things that regular buyers don’t even care about. They literally were poking fun at Apple in their podcast while recording at Apple’s podcast studio.
