My fave feature of the 15 Pros has to be the lighter titanium frame. My kids bought the mid year green 13 Pro, and I've always disliked the weight of their phone. Having held the new Pro phones in my local Apple Store, colour me impressed. I'll definitely be upgrading to a 15 Pro next year, ... just haven't decided which one. Thanks as always for the content.

I’m curious to know whether a full camera lens cover, one that encompasses not just the lens but also its surrounding square area, would be compatible with an Andar phone case. This query stems from the fact that the Peak Design case fails to accommodate the iPhone 15 Pro Max when it’s equipped with such a comprehensive lens cover. So, yes I waste Peak Design case and now rocking with Casetify case that fit perfectly for my use case. Understanding the fit and compatibility between these accessories is crucial for optimal protection and functionality of the device.
@sglatitude10 ай бұрын
I've just received the Nomad Horween leather case for my iPhone 15 Pro Max, and I'm pleased to report that it fits perfectly with the full camera lens cover. However, I've noticed that the raised lips around the top and bottom of the Nomad case are significantly less pronounced compared to the Casetify case. Consequently, in terms of drop protection, I believe the Casetify case, similar to the Mous case, offers better 'slamboy' certified due to its more thicker design in corner, ecoshock “orange” material in case of Casetify or Airoshock “green” material in case of Mous give better impact protection.

If you care about upgrading and money is always a factor then a case and screen protector is a must, I did not upgrade from my 12 pro max until this iPhone 15 pro max persuaded me, love my 12 pro max but the zoom on video was annoying that you had to stop recording to zoom in more then start again and same if zooming out, finally no longer as often take stills form it, 120hz is very noticeable smoother and been using tiny 2 tb thumb drive for log video and photos and quality is good when using on M2 pro , not camera quality but the convenience of the iPhone to take from pocket to shooting is so quick, and if people want better images then go for a used older camera as can save a fortune, I was very dubious about this phone given the money but I’m super happy with it now I have it and should get £400 plus back for selling old iPhone to lesson the expense, glad you also like yours 😎😎🤩🤩
