iPhone 15 One Week Later... Why Buy 'PRO'? HONEST Review

Why buy the iPhone 15 Pro, if you don't need the extra features? After spending the last week with the iPhone 15, I've fallen in love with this phone. It's sleek, light, has great performance, battery, and it gets the job done! The iPhone 15 is an incredible phone for $800. Here's my 1 week honest review with Apple's iPhone 15.

Very nice video. Well paced, good audio and well presented information. Keep it up!

[@ChristianRocker]

If it had pro-motion l would give strong consideration for the regular 15. But having the 120hz the last two years has spoiled me.

[@NoWayJose0_0]

I had the 13 pro max. But sold it for the 15 plus and I stopped noticing the slower 60hz after a few minutes. What I like about it, it’s probably the smoothest 60hz you can get which is why I don’t feel like they needed to upgraded .

I bought the pro yesterday and been using it non stop and still haven’t had to charge battery. Maybe update fixed the battery issue that people were talking about before.

[@user-ck4xv7vf4u]

iPhone setting is extremely important, it affects the battery life significantly. I Turn off True Tone, no colour filters, my battery life turns a lot better compared to when they are turned on

[@thevoid141]

Isn't it funny how people never complained about 60Hz on iPhone 12/13/14 but when 15 gets a little closer to pro models, they want that as well. Apple marketing wouldn't allow it - it would make the Pro models fail.

[@valismind]

It’s not that. It’s just that we’re in 2023, and 120hz has pretty much become the norm, even on a lot of lower end laptops, phones, displays. It’s not an expensive technology either.

[@nickwong2525]

Could have given it at least 90hz if they wanna keep "promotion" for pro models only.

@ 2:00 - This is not the case, they didnt only start doing 128GB as the lowest config last year, The iPhone 12 was the last main iPhone that had a 64GB base storage option. The iPhone 13 onwards has had 128GB as the lowest storage option.

The footage from the back camera was way tooooo good, like we know that iphones are in the lead in terms of camera quality and video specifically but this footage genuinely suprised me. The fact that this kind of quality comes from the iphone 15 base model is even more incredible and alot of content creators don't show how good it actually is. You did great with this video bro🔥

Very nice review. I used to be the guy who upgraded phones every year almost. Now I've been rocking the iPhone 12 since launch and I've been debating getting the iPhone 15 plus, but I was really hoping to see the 120hz move to the base models. I get why they didn't do it, but as you and many others have said, it's 2023 and for an $800+ phone it feels like it's missing. Still unsure about pulling the trigger on this. Regarding the colors though, I can't help but feel they've taken their cues from the car industry. Safe conservative colors rule the road. Now they've trickled into the iPhone lineup.

[@imeann...]

The only problem is it's not USB C@@ballooneyjr4294

[@micoreal1598]

Iphone 15 or 14 pro?

[@user-wr2dp9my9p]

go plus, 15 plus bigger screen and better battery

[@jyrjckbrls]

Been rocking my iPhone 12 as well until last November 2023 in which I’ve upgraded to iPhone 14 ProMax for the reason that I would like to get the 120hz once and for all and it’s really a game changer. The smoothness when you scroll is so different. I have been debating to get the iPhone 15 as well back then but also got the realisation that for a $1000+ (atleast in our country), I think we should be enjoying at the very least a high screen refresh rate, in which some way cheaper android phones can already provide. I guess I will go back to non-pro iPhone if it already has 120hz, for the meantime I will enjoy my 14PM for the next 4-5 years. 🙂

No 120hz in iPhone 16 this year also xD

prob not.. 13+ is too similar.. They're some clear differences but unless you got plenty of money to spend its prob worth waiting another year or two.. USB C is great "add" though no doubt.. feels good..

[@roderictaylor]

I'm considering upgrading from my iPhone 11 pro to the iPhone 15. The x2 simulated zzom using the larger sensor sounds like it might make up for the zoom lens of the iPhone pro. I'm already used to a 60 HZ screen. I haven't held one in my hand yet, but I understand the edges of the iPhone 15 are more rounded then those on the 12-14. Also, I like the blue color.

[@mattpronovost2170]

Totally agree with this. I was thinking about going to a pro but I don’t like the thickness of it and honestly, unless you get the pro max you’re only missing out of ProMotion (120hz). Not getting the pro max because it’s WAY to large of a phone considering I use a 13 mini currently :)

The Wife's 13 Pro rarely sees below 70% at the end of the day, but it does have overheating issues. It always has. So did my 8+ and my friends' older iPhones. I left Apple because of this & switched to Samsung. If I'm spending over $1000? I expect my phones to be feature packed & last all day maxed out in 2023! I still have not figured out everything my S22 Ultra has to offer me in Sept. 23 & I've had it since its release date! That's feature packed. I can figure everything out on an iPhone in a day or 2. Waiting on the S24 Ultra. Rumors are looking great! 🤟

So are we buying cameras with Internet access or smart phones? iOS is too limiting and simple for me imo

[@MissSmurfey]

What is the 15 camera comparable to? 13 or 14 pro or pro max?

[@Retriven]

Coming from an Iphone 11 pro, I got a regular 15 (preferred the longer battery, I don't care about the 60hz display, which is actually one of the best displays I have seen, and the third camera is not necessary for me either). I also had a 120hz amoled display in my former realme gt master edition, but when I changed my device I didn't really miss the 120hz; better colors, more brightness, and a better experience overall.

60hz on the iPhone just "seems" a bit better because the screen is relatively tiny compared to others out there. 60hz is a lot more problematic on the iPhone 15+. 60fps is 60fps.

[@valismind]

It’s pixel response time is quite good. I think another reason is that if you tried low power mode on the Pro/ Max, because it’s an LTPO display, it actually doesn’t feel as smooth as a panel that is just 60Hz. Also, while you can use FPS and Hz interchangeably, they’re not the same thing. For example, something running content at 120fps with a display that’s 60Hz is going to have a lower response time.

the only real reason i went with the iphone 15 pro instead of the base model when i upgraded from my 11 is because i've been spoiled by using 120 hz on my computer for the past 5 years, i couldn't justify getting a new iphone that only has a 60hz screen when i could get a similarly spec'd android phone with a 120hz screen for the same price. i almost ended up switching to android but tmobile enticed me with a free apple watch to stay with apple.

@@davecamposarcone5048 I'm happy with the size of the 15. It's only 31 grams heavier than the 13 mini. Battery life on the 15 is better than the 13 mini too. I have no regrets about making the jump from the 13 mini to the 15.

For once, the base iPhones are worth it. And as for the 120Hz controversy, I wouldn’t need a Pro iPhone if the base models had a 120Hz display.

[@johnnydoe3603]

In Android the Platform Phones have 120Hz Display & they Still have Premium Phone Segment. 😂

If it even had 90hz I would not care. The extra smoothness makes the touch screen feel so much more responsive.

[@RealJoseph123]

@@valismind Come to think of it, even 90Hz would be better for the base iPhones.

[@saharajohnson6481]

Some people do not care about 90 hz or 120 hz on a iPhone some people still buying older iPhones or most people keep their old iPhone longer

[@kasziel]

To me 120hz doesn’t matter, I’d rather have the 3d lens and a couple of things missing like macro, night portrait and aod. All the other pro features are useless to me. I need an iPhone M, sort of an equivalent to the 13” mbp, just a bit more but not all of it

Correction: Apple started offering 128 GB minimum bad storage with the iPhone 13.

[@okaybro7740]

What about iPhone 15 plus?

[@valismind]

Haven’t used. But seems like a steal, and battery is insane.

iPhone 14 pro max is a better value for the same price, that's why Apple removed it from the page while still selling the regular 14.

[@Swiftie202]

That’s the phone I have

[@trevor4533]

It is, but they removed the 14 pro max from the store because they remove the previous pro models from the store every year.

​@@trevor4533ah i just know this, thanks

[@MuodyAMPH]

Pro are the only iphones worth getting. Base ip is literally comparable to medium range android with higher price. Huge af bezels, 60hz and used materials are ridiculous in phone priced like that.

Why do we still have the island…. Just give us the punch out.
