The 1x, 1.2x, and 1.5x options are not meant to be for shooting in those “multiples” of 1x, if you notice in the settings they have their lens mm equivalent next to them. It’s for photographers who want to shoot at a specific lens size.

I just hate how they headline the USB C to be their main change but they leave out on so many features they could put in the phone just so they have areas of improvement for future phones.. its the same thing that NVIDIA did when Etherium was cut off.

its not bad idea leaving out for future phones….in my opinion technology is getting way too fast. How can you improve a phone that has everything? That’s what people want from apple but in the end how can they improve….Apple can be a pain sometimes but i understand their view about innovations

But the 40 series isn't better at all... the 4060 is slower, for example.

​@@RavnHoodit depends on the card. 4070ti is almost as fast as a 3090 or in some use cases outperforms a 3090, but the 4060 is worse than it's predecessor except for energy usage, it would be better suited as a 4050 but Nvidia set the 40 series names kinda weird.

Starting from a 3-nm SoC with 35 trillion operations per second machine learning engine to the brightest screen to the titanium alloy enclosure to 4K60FPS raw video to satellite services. Also, the point of USB speed the chap is making is silly, because most professionals will never use it anyway as Wi-Fi is already super fast for file transfer. It is also weird that he is suggesting that Apple should lie that fast-charging can be only possible with USB-C, while it was perfectly possible with Lightning, and the reason why Apple does not do it is to not kill the battery even faster than it is degrading. Also, the chap does not understand the fact that the strength of titanium is needed to make the case thinner and even lighter, it is not about the strength per se. Finally, the idea that USB is the main feature is the stupidest yet. The most strategic change is Apple’s entrance to the hardware ray tracing acceleration game. It is already made several AAA gaming coming to iOS, but this will surely shortly be followed by iPadOS, visionOS and MacOS as the technology will be a part of M3 chips.

I’m still using an iPhone 10. I had been planning to get a 14 last year but, after they were announced, the upgrade just didn’t seem worth it then. But after five years the 10 is starting to show its age-short battery life, sluggish face recognition-so I went ahead today and preordered a 15 with 256 gigs. It felt very costly. I live in Japan, and the weak yen has made all imports more expensive. I hope the 15 lasts five years, too.

Apple could easily win over the customer base of competitors if they stopped. I'm really disliking Android more with every new version released (yes, I'm already on Android 14 beta).

Great Video as always! :) As I'm rocking an iPhone 13 Pro Max right now, I'm not really inclined to upgrade. The main reasons for me personally would be upholding the "value" by uptrading as currently the 13 Pro Max is still worth a good amount of money. And the other reason is the camera. Sure USB-C is nice and all, but it also means, as you mentioned, that all my accessories are pretty much useless now or I need to buy adapters. With no faster charging mentioned it also doesn't make a big difference anyway. The faster data transfer speeds aside. So yeah, again, mixed feelings and will only upgrade if I get a good offer through my mobile provider.

I think the reason for the 1.2x camera setting is that they made the lens wider to 24mm equiv, and the 1.2x gets you back to 28mm how it always was, and then they also added 1.5x to get to 35mm, ”a very popular focal length in photography”, introducing more and more photography lingo into the phone.

The default option of changing the camera from 24mm to 28mm or 35mm is aimed at photographers. 35mm and 28mm are way more common focal lengths in everyday shooting than 24mm is, and focal length ultimately plays the biggest role when it comes to framing.

Great video! What I’m hearing is it’s a good upgrade from like a 12, but otherwise the same phone as in the last years… It’s sad that the “top” phone on the market is missing baseline features that the competitors have had for years: fast charging, USB3+ speeds, good battery life (assuming there is no major difference from my 14Pro). Been an Apple guy for 15 years now, but the only thing stopping me from switching now is the cost of switching & iOS/MacOS. I don’t see the added value anymore from the device.

USB C had to happen for apple to be able to sell their products here in the EU, which I honestly love EU for.

I have an iPad and am able to share all my cables and chargers between my phone, my tablet and my laptop.

[@cheekypasta55]

This definitely should’ve been a 14S instead of a 15. I was really hoping for faster charging at the very least. I do like taking RAW photos and shooting in ProRES, but at the end of the day, that’s more of an infrequent hobby. I charge my phone every day and it would e been nice to be able to get a full charge in under 30 minutes if you’re heading out somewhere. This is a disappointment. Also why did they get rid of midnight purple???? I love my purple 14 pro. I was hoping for another purple color.

[@AgentStarke]

One thing that sounded interesting to me was the ability to capture video directly to an external drive. Never thought I would see a capability like that in an iPhone. I hope that works in all video modes, and not just Prores only. Knowing Apple they will limit it in some arbitrary way that makes it useless for most people who would use the feature.

The launch was about what I expected. USB-C, improved cameras, faster processor. Mostly the same old song and dance, different year. It's getting harder for them to differentiate between "model years" any more. I was expecting the USB-C to actually be Thunderbolt to help move video and photos off of the phone quicker.

I use my iPhone 14 Pro for certain Real Estate Photography gigs. Generally if I'm filming a small apartment or using my iPhone for Ariel footage on a boom pole. So I have to say upgrading my phone is a necessity for the operations of my business, however. For Apple to release an iPhone, that is so similar to the 14 Pro almost makes it not worth while. The key features I was looking out for were, 48 MP in the other lenses and not only in the main camera. The quality drop from the different lenses is so apparent in post. Even if they could resolve the 48 MP to save raw photos at a more efficient data rate, so that it doesn't fill up the phone too quickly. It's all good an nice to announce a 5x telephoto camera but if the sensor is still 12MP is the quality of that photo still worth it?

A third might not be an issue with the phone but the GPS would suddenly get stuck for me at random times. Hopefully that won't be an issue with the new phone. A nice bonus will be the nicer cameras and better battery life.

There is an easy explanation for the focal length presets and it concerns photographers. So, the default focal length on the iphone is the 35m equivalent of 24mm, I believe. It's a rather WIDE focal length as your default and that sort of wide lens is not often used. A lot of photographers go to 1,2 and that translates to 28mm, a much more used focal length. 1,4 is about 35mm, which is really used much more. Right now, you have to fiddle with the slider manually every single time to get to those more common focal lengths. These presets are trying to solve that.

Great post. I’m so tired of reviewers acting like every new item is the best thing in the world and causing consumers to waste money. Thank you so much for being open and honest about the iPhone 15 Pro Max so now I can really decide if I even think it would be worth upgrading from a 13 Pro Max.

Let me answer that: No (it's literally the same phone just with USB c, if that's interesting for you)

I think one of the most “Pro” features that they finally unlocked on the pro phones with usbc is recording photos and videos directly to a drive. Plus native Log video. Pretty niche sure, but I can imagine that’s a big deal for iPhone videographers & vlogers etc.

Ow yeah that sounds perfect for the few movies that actually get recorded on iPhone. I don’t think we are there yet for high budget movies but at least for some shots it’s gotten to a point you can record with a phone even on those. Imagine you might have a movie scene in a very cramped space, might be to small to have the actors and a huge camera setup in there. But obviously you’re gonna be shooting maxed out for a movie so that’s a lot of data. This way no need for a dedicated phone for this with maxed storage. Just any random one and connect a storage drive. Also it’s gonna take more time as well but they are clearly showing interest in making movies with the Apple vision thing in mind. As far as I know the iPhone is now the only camera that can record those depth videos they showed off. In a few years we might see those.

@@xanderwusky3001The misconception is blockbusters. There are dedicated cameras for high budget filmmaking. You are overlooking other productions, like short films, documentaries, indies, and music videos. Even budget films like ‘Tangerine’ were shot on iPhones.

the action button should have more than one customizable option. like two taps, three taps, one tap and one long press.

[@sekutyasemacska]

Good idea. Something to sell with iPhone 16!

[@JOSEPH-vs2gc]

the action button should have existed a decade ago.

[@Poopyturdy]

It’ll probably be in an update

[@sprudel8878]

That would be overwhelming for iPhone users ;)

[@petitpanierdosier3206]

They still need to leave some room for the iPhone 16 and 17 lmao
