I don't know much about the iPhone 15 Plus, but the green screen issue on the iPhone 13 Pro Max is the biggest drawback for me, especially when you are about to buy it from the secondhand market.

I upgraded from the 13 PM to the 15 Plus. Couldnt do the 60hz so traded the Plus in for the 15 Pro Max. I didnt think the 60hz would be that big but it was a deal breaker for me. Loved the lightness and the feel of the 15 Plus though.

[@Iyke148]

People are always calling out the 60hz on the 15 plus, i mean, i get it's not the ideal refresh rate, but that doesnt make it bad, the 120hz is just objectively better. I got used to the 60 hz on the phone within 2 days and forgot i came from a 120hz, i honestly didnt notice it in my daily usage and it definittely didnt feel choppy like most people call it. So there you have it, for some people that may still have concerns on this subject

[@Iyke148]

The camera, overall phone perfomance and even the battery performed better than my 13 pro max. currently on the 15 plus by the way and come on guys the usb type C makes it feel more modern than the old lightening port. So its definitely the better buy and it is argueably on par with the 14 pro max

[@davidducovny1367]

I chose 120HZ screen OVER any 60 HZ screen phone all the time ,60Hz looks choppier all the time feels like a vintage screen ,plus you interact with your screen 100% and that's the most important thing, macro lens and 3x optical zoom are a bonus when you need it.

[@nickackermanchannel]

Yes but you can get used to this and forget about it, however I agree the 120hz is a big deal

2 weeks ago I upgraded my IPhone 12 to 15 plus, and I am loving it so far. At first i was hesitant but after i watched couple of your videos on 15 plus I definitely bought it. Keep up the amazing work!

[@smoetsch7637]

How fast does your battery drain? Say for example KZbin or TikTok.

[@SobirkhoN]

@@smoetsch7637 the battery life is amazing, trust me. It doesn’t feel like the battery drains so much overtime. I mean after all of course it drains no matter what you are doing. Even though you play games or scroll through instagram and TikTok, the phone doesn’t seem to overheat or drain fast. For example if i charge to lets say 90% i can go with it for a day and half. It could have been 2 days if i dont play games much

[@InsighterofTech]

I have a feeling if iOS 15 was on the 15 plus or pro max, it would have the best battery life.

One of the best iphones made till date: Iphone 4 Iphone 6s Iphone 11 pro max Iphone 13 Iphone 13 pro max Iphone 14 plus Iphone 15 I have had owned most of them 🎊 and really happy with mu decision.

[@MarcoBeSomething]

Hey Nick, thanks for the video. My dad had lost his 8 Plus a few months before the 14 series came out so he bought the best phone available at the time in the 13 Pro Max since it was also the only big phone option. My dad always has Bluetooth on because of his hearing aids, he mainly streams music on his phone and uses Google Maps. He definitely doesn’t use or notice the pro features like the 120 hertz screen or micro camera. The most usage on his phone is maps because he does deliveries for work, his battery health is at 88%. Both my parents always leave their 5G on because they forget how to turn it off, they’ve been shown several times but don’t remember 2 questions for you Nick; my Dad’s Pro Max is at 88% battery health and starting to require more charging during the day. Do you think it’d be worth trading up for a base model plus considering the info I provided? Second question I had was if maybe I could use shortcuts to turn off my parents cellular when connected to WiFi and to turn off low power mode when charging? They both leave it on basically all the time then forget how to turn it on or off, my mom leaves it on more so because her 12 mini is at the point where it doesn’t get through a full day for her.

Apple needs to optimize a lot the Dynamic Island so battery life can come close to the 13 pm.

[@jonas870]

They won't update a lot because ip15 plus/ pro max have an extreme battery life and compared to the competition there arent a lot others with this battery life. In iPhone 16 series they are including a bit larger batteries but that's it, I guess

[@harshadgamage2098]

What do you think about 13 pro series 14 pro series green display issue after updates how we can avoid it?

[@-UNLEASHED-2.0]

I don’t really care if it’s a bit choppy on the iPhone 15 plus because if fine with 60hz also because I’m coming from a iPhone XR I mostly care about battery camera and speed. probaly in 5 or more years the iPhone 13 Pro Max wont update to the latest iOS but the iPhone 15 plus will. Also the iPhone 13 Pro Max you can only get used which I hate used phones. Comment if your iPhone or Samsung or other (you don’t have to!) 👇

[@rochellepearson12]

I have the 13 pro max alpha green had it for 2 years now , I’m keeping it n upgrading to the 15 plus my phone feels very heavy at times plus I think it’s time for a upgrade

[@sylvainalain6637]

The 1000 battery cycles is part of the equation too. The 14 PM has bad battery while the 13PM was the goat for 2 years straight :) a 13PM is really a sweet spot compare to the 15 plus. I skipped the 14 series after seeing all the bad battery health after 2-3 months

[@nickackermanchannel]

It is a solid iPhone the 13PM I didn’t experience bad battery life for 14PM but definitely for the smaller model though

[@MrAlexanderTheG8]

I will say, I have the 13PM, and it’s a thick heavy boy, even compared to my S22 Ultra. That’s being said, I’ll wait until the iPhone 17PM because I feel like most of the upgrades are very incremental at best, and it’s not worth spending extra just for a dynamic island and action button. I’m hoping by next year, Apple will improve the optical cameras on the Pro Max version because unless it can zoom further than my S22 Ultra, I’ll just use that for photos!!

[@NGreedia]

I used to get a day and a half when I first got my 13PM but lately, it’s at most a one day phone on a charge at 84% battery

[@KnoxHMT]

If you don't mind i have a question does light mode drain battery on every iphone even iphone XR because i feel like whenever i use light mode it uses more battery

[@Jon-cu4kv]

Dark mode uses less battery on OLED screens. On LCD panels like the XR it makes zero difference, LCD is backlit. So on an XR, dark or light mode makes no difference to battery.
