Honestly I couldn't be happier that I'm upgrading now from my 12 to the regular 15. I feel like I'm getting sufficient upgrades to justify it, I still get pretty good trade in value, AND the regulars are almost as good as the Pros this year! All of the features I actually cared about (portrait mode and 49 upgrade, dynamic island, and curve) are on the regular, and I don't feel like I have to choose between an expensive price tag vs stuff I want. Plus, I really love pastel colors and for once, I really struggled to pick a color I wanted the most!

To me for those who want upgrade to iphone 15 series is the old user, such as iphone 13 and below because of the jump of performance and more upgrade hardware, it is for you.

[@Epicgamer_Mac]

Hey guys great video, but I just want to point out an error. The iPhone 15/Plus doesn't actually have the same main camera sensor as the 14 Pro, as you said at 2:31. It has an entirely new sensor that is smaller than the one from the 14 Pro, which was carried over to the 15 Pro. So the 14 Pro and 15 Pro have the same sensor with 2.44 micrometer pixels and an f/1.78 aperture lens, but the regular 15 gets a smaller one with 2 micrometer pixels, but a larger f/1.6 aperture lens. However, since aperture is simply relating the size of the lens opening to the sensor, that doesn't necessarily mean the lens opening is larger on the 15's - it's just larger IN RELATION to the sensor bc the sensor is smaller!

[@bryansproles2879]

Upgrading from an iPhone 12 to the 15 Pro Max. Not getting any younger, and the bigger screen size is going to be pretty helpful. I also want the lighter titanium and better battery life. The better camera will be helpful, but not strictly required.

For the love of god titanium is harder but if you scratch it it will look worst than stainless steel. I think the natural titanium color is the only option because other colors will look really bad if it’s potentially scratched. For me, I never cared about color as I always put it on a case.

[@absolutrumo]

There's a mistake at 2:45 regarding the 1x cameras of the 14 vs. the 15. The regular 15 *does* have a 24 mm lens with a wider aperture (f1.6 vs f1.78), but this does *not* necessarily mean that more light is hitting the sensor. The 15 Pro this year has a larger sensor compared to last year's 14 Pro (and thereby this year's 15). I don't think we know yet how much bigger. But with a bigger sensor, even if the aperture is slower, there could be the same amount of light (or more) that reaches the sensor. Same as a f4 full frame lens gathers as much light as a f2.8 aps-c lens, for example. So I don't think we can be sure that the regular 15, compared to the 15 pro, has better low light performance. (It is likely to be the same and could potentially be worse.) Otherwise great video, fantastic work as always, keep it up! :)

[@mehdiyk8854]

they said it s larger compared to the 15, literally no sensor has changed from the 14 pro to 15 pro.

@@mehdiyk8854 The main sensor is larger in the 15 pro vs the 14 pro my guy.

[@quma001]

F1.6 is faster than F1.78, so it is indeed the case, that the sensor gets more light. What the sensor (or its photosites) do with that light in terms of image quality is another topic.

[@BenTroxell]

@@quma001 Wrong. A larger sensor with the same aperture will capture more light because of the greater surface area of the sensor, so you can’t know which one actually gets more light at this time without knowing the sensor size difference.

I am going to upgrade from XS Max to 15 PRO Max. What do you think about the storage of PROs? Would the 256 be sufficient of PRO MAX (due to possibilities of the USB-C and ad hoc transferring data to external storage) or we should forget about it and choose 512? I remember that Apple liked in the past to boost a bit the higher storage options when it comes to saving data etc.

[@RobertMarshall]

I ended up going for the 512gb today, though I did debate it for some time due to the ability of connecting an external SDD. But, in the long run, it's still not Thunderbolt speed; only USB 3. I'd rather shoot to the internal memory, and then transfer it later at my leisure.

[@MissionControlTet]

2:45 That's not necessarily the case. 15 Pros (and 14 Pros too actually) despite having smaller aperture, still have larger sensor. Even Apple acknowledged that on the event. Main sensor on 15&14 Pro is (2.44/2)^2 times (almost 49% larger) the size of regular 15s. Aperture is not everything, that's why 14 Pros boasted low-light performance over 13 Pros despite having smaller aperture. In case you're wondering, the sensor size of regular 15s compared to regular 14s is only about 11% larger. That's why they don't talk really much about low-light improvements, because there is nothing.

My only problem with the iPhone 15 Pro/Max is that the Max has a "better" zoom camera. I think these pro models Shouldn't be difference. But of course, if Apple wants more money out of you, that's the best way to do it. I also think the 128gb model is a joke. With the ability of recording ProRes video @4k/60, watch that storage go down quickly. It's not only video, better photo's/quality = more mb (or gb) per photo. Apps are getting bigger as well and games are more popular than ever on mobile phones. 256gb should be standard. Other than that, i do love the iPhone 15 Pro and i will upgrade. I currently have the iPhone X 256gb so for me, it's time to upgrade. Also the convenience of USB-C plays a big factor to me!

Unless anyone is trying to shoot a film then pro max is good otherwise pro will do just fine

[@PeterbFree]

You are right about the camera on the Max

[@patricek4044]

Please could someone explain why he says that the 15 pro will make better quality shots than the 15 pro max?

[@danariel3558]

The 15 pro will not make better quality shots than the 15 pro max. The 15 Pro has the X3 lens (same sensor from last year) and the Pro Max the X5 (with new and bigger sensor), this is the main different between them in photography.

[@sdophoto1405]

@@patricek4044 ya I was wondering that too

[@souravsasmal3953]

@danariel3558 thanks .. however I believe with the new a17 chip and improved / larger aperture 3x will work just fine.. I don't find periscope lens or 5x optical zoom necessary... also pro max size / form factor is not suitable for daily use unless you are a content creator

[@MagnenoExtra]

Getting the 15 pro this year. I have the 13 pro max and I've just found it's too cumbersome to use with one hand. With the watch ultra I'm not using my phone as much, so I don't nees the absolute best battery any longer. Plus with USB C there'll be way more places to charge for me personally

[@Arithekiller]

So how do you like it as far as battery goes ?

[@chrispurcell3671]

I honestly can't decide... I bought a 14 pro on launch day and loved it except for the battery life. I was planning to upgrade to the 15 pro but not much improved, currently thinking about the pro max. But I'm gonna wait for reviews

[@corrd3ll]

The PM will always have a bigger and better battery

[@MichelleCJ]

Exactly! 14 pro battery life is not so great. I haven’t heard anyone mention that the 15 pro battery life will be any better. 😢

[@yanislavvalkov9884]

Absolutely agree. Very poor battery, that’s why Im gonna buy 15pro max tomorrow.

[@chrispurcell3671]

@@corrd3llmy only issue is, I did the math, it’s about $700 for me to upgrade w a trade in at Apple. So you’re paying $700 for a bigger battery, I just don’t know yet I think I’m gonna wait for reviews

I have a Samsung and have been trying to figure out which iPhone to buy. I prefer the size and price of the regular 15, but the usb-c is going to be really slow compared to my Samsung s21. I might go with the 13 or 14 instead bc the usb-c doesn't seem worth it rn. Does anyone have any suggestions or advice?

Just went from the 13 to the 15 can’t complain 15 is a great improvement overall

In the Netherlands, the new 15 pro max is 256gb is €130 cheaper then the 14 pro max 256gb of last year. Sure wasn’t expecting this 😜

Inderdaad betere prijzen nu voor het nieuwere model! Welke pro kleur ga je kiezen?

[@MaDFroG88]

Yep EU got lucky 🍀

[@BrabantXXL]

Last model just was crazy expensive because of the low Euro rate compared to the dollar. Now it is adjusted to normal crazy prices and keep in mind that we pay 21% tax and some states in America don’t. So we still pay much lol

Going from a 12 pro to a 15 pro. Very similar phones but nice upgrade for me.

[@DanjerusThyme]

I am pumped about these upgrades myself! I current run an iPhone 11 Pro Midnight Green 256GB and will be upgrading to the iPhone 11 Pro 25GGB probably in Black or Silver. As a small phone lover I really liked to hear that the Pro iPhones are substantially lighter this year AND smaller due to the very small bezel size, this is amazing news! and the fact the batterys are getting larger, huge fan of long long lasting battery life. Also excited that more and more iPhones will have the Dynamic Island so hoping that more and more developers will use this in clever ways.

Thanks for the guide! Only thing tempting me to upgrade from my 14 pro is ray tracing. I don’t think it’s worth it for that and usb-c alone, so I’ll wait for the comparisons. Almost 100% sure waiting another year to finally ditch lighting for good

[@staticbuilds7613]

Got just the 15. Was going to get the pro but only for the camera. With both being the same 48MP I did not really need a extra £200 for a 3x telephoto lens. A normal 15 is plenty until I upgrade it in 2030. I upgrade tech every 6-7 years. Going from 7 to 15 this Christmas is going to be nuts

[@doctorkj5640]

The price difference between regular 15 and 15 pro is 200 usd. And nobody is mentioning that this brings (among all other features) the lidar sensor that can be creatively used in so many ways. This alone makes the pro model even cheaper in relative terms. So I think the 15 and 15+ should be priced at 599 and 699 respectively.

[@davidyang3068]

That makes no sense lol. If anything, you are arguing that the pro phones should be more expensive. They are a for profit company. They aren't making their phones which are already selling well way cheaper

[@doctorkj5640]

​@@davidyang3068 You make no sense LOL :-) I'm arguing that the pro phones have prices much closer to their value and the regular ones don't. They don't offer great value for the asking price compared to the pros.

Nice video, Max. Could you compare the regular iPhone 15 to the iPhone 14 Pro when you can get one on hand? I’m not sure whether to get a 14 Pro since it has AOD which is great for standby mode in iOS 17.

I’ve got an iPhone 11 Pro Max since January 2020, it’s time for an upgrade.

[@RiannaNicole]

i’m more tempted this year to upgrade to the 15 PM for the camera and i appreciate that it’s usbc for wired charging (don’t use it for data transfer all that much) but since i have the 13 pro, it’s still too similar for me to be sold on buying it. i know i’ll opt for the larger screen and more storage when i do upgrade but think i’ll wait another year till the 16 PM and see if that’s enough. my current phone holds up to my needs rather well still. i love learning what the new ones have to offer and love tech

[@brokentradgedy]

The cameras are literally the exact same except for the 5x zoom one

[@967031]

I’m still not convinced the upgrades are worth upgrading from an iPhone 13PM. This iPhone is still a beast in the smartphone industry. But then again I’m a fanboy so I just might upgrade to the newest iPhone PM just to have it even if I don’t need it. That’s just how life goes nowadays when u want it instead of need it 🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑
