I have been using the iPhone 15 Pro for over a month and I’ve got to say this phone is almost perfect. There is a lot to really like about the iPhone 15 Pro, from it’s more comfortable titanium design, impressive camera upgrades, incredible performance and USB-C just to name a few. But, there are also some shortcomings that I think you should know about too if you’re thinking of buying this phone. This video will cover everything you need to know!
The iPhone 15 Pro is a phone I would call almost perfect. Some areas for improvement are: the battery life, I wish it could last all-day and evening. The base storage of 128GB will fill up fast. And I would have also loved to see Apple bring the 5x telephoto from the 15 Pro Max to the 15 Pro. Lastly, while the screen is crack resistant, scratch resistance is poor - definitely get a screen protector - I will leave my recommendation in the description.
Still, these gripes are relatively small when compared to all the iPhone 15 Pro has to offer. The more ergonomic titanium design is a pleasure to use. Content on the OLED display looks amazing. You get amongst the best camera system on any smartphone. And the A17 Pro chip means this phone delivers top of the line performance and will do so for many years to come. Plus the USB-C port is great for future proofing! Overall the iPhone 15 Pro is a phone I highly recommend to those looking to upgrade or get their first Pro iPhone.

[@brandonnel6905]

As a Samsung user, I don't think I'll ever go back to iPhone, but I'm still happy for Apple users. For people who only want an iPhone, this phone does a lot right and very little wrong, and I gotta give credit for it.

[@JonCom3dy]

I'm curious. What's better about it than iOS? I was thinking about coming over to android

[@AakarshanB]

@@JonCom3dynothing but iOS is a bug deal tbh. I tried out the samsung s23 bought on release day. It is a GREAT phone, fast, smooth and really ergonomic (even compared to the newer 15 series of iPhones) but iOS is so much more robust than android. Android still has inconsistencies all around it especially in OneUI. After loving the s23 for 6 months I went back to the 14 pro max.

[@sammyjammy6647]

@@AakarshanBand doesn’t android have a lot of ads peppered in the UI? Even when just using text messaging apps?

[@ZotmundSzele]

it's strange: after Android only (but being aware of iOS) I'm tempted to switch out of curiosity but there are so many things I'd immediately regret, I'm staying with Android.

[@ZotmundSzele]

​@@JonCom3dyI cannot exactly tell you because it's an undecided debate. What I see is that many people think Android is still like Linux and you need to install drives, mod the firmware etc. NO! You turn the phone on and it works, like iOS. I haven't rebooted my Android months. I however have to admit backup and restore works just better on iOS. (except for WhatsApp haha)

[@jarrahdrum]

I have the 15 pro and I like it very much, I got fed up with reading so many great and then negative comments, so I just went ahead and bought one. I am upgrading from an XS so I am able to appreciate this phone much more than the people that change every year or two. It's difficult to impress people these days it seems, expectations are always very high and some are never satisfied , but I understand this and it is this demand that pushes technology, however, I am still blown away by my XS and even my earlier 5s and previous. they still work and still look new and used them everyday at work and out and about. Yes appreciated and like the 15 pro very much. thank you, subscribed

@tonyfas99 I love the new titanium finish. The reduction in weight is also a plus as these pro models were getting to be a bit too heavy for my liking.

[@francisailo]

The flaw I am seeing on the 15pro and Max are the Batteries that are almost the same with the 14pro series, the PVT coating that may become a problem in the long run, other than that. It's a lot better than the 14 series

[@MiTTeKk]

@mitek90 Well I'm not a mobile gamer, but I have to admit - that thing is a beast when it comes to the performance. Although I don't think 6 years of support vs 5 years in the regular 15 will make any difference unless you decide to replace your battery after ~4 years 😉

[@justinstaggs554]

first off I want to start by saying I love your channel. With that being said I have a question and I'm hoping that maybe you could help me out. The iPhone 14 pro Max and Pros had the battery issues where they were degrading much faster then other models did. With that being said the new 15 and 15 plus have the same chip that was in the 14 Pro Models do you think that those models will have the same issues with the battery duration that the 14 Pro Models had or do you think maybe it was something going on with the phone and maybe Apple may have fixed it? I would love to know your thoughts on this.

[@sheffsteel7]

I have the 15 Pro Max and there's a setting which only recharges the battery to 80% capacity, apparently really slows down the degradation of the battery and even at 80% still easily lasts a full day.

[@knotsable]

Its hard to find iphone reviews that arent case reviews

[@kakaro134]

you can play console level games? for like what 20 minutes and your phone gets heat up like nothing else. s23 has the function to get power directly from the wall adapter so I am not sure why apple is not implementing this yet. By getting power directly from the wall adapter you can use your phone as long as you like because it does not heat up your battery in anyway. I have played 16 hours straight on s23 and it has not even heat up that much. Only if this function is available in the iphone then you will get the full functionality of A17 if not that you are just using 15% of that A17

[@Bogartu_Kun]

@MrBabav What is it with iphone15 pro , lot of bad criticisms, and issues ( including me as a Samsung user for decades) yet when You get the chance to hold and feel the phone in you hands, this “titanium” elegance makes you think twice as compared to plastics, and when you scroll and test it, admittedly adds a feeling of reverential respect .

Hi, I do this on basis of the historic software record of Apple. As the 15 Pro has a newer processor than the 15 I think it is reasonable to assume that its software support will be one or perhaps even two years longer
