      It was due to the delay in the manufacturing of the 5x lens, for the pro model it couldn’t be assembled in time, so they delivered it with their standard 3x and to get away simply said that there wasn’t enough room in the pro model…..not that bad tbh…..I’m pretty sure with the 16 pros this gape will also be bridged

    The biggest issue with the 15 Pro Max is the huge distance in focal length between the 13mm, 24mm and 120mm focal length equivalents lenses. That’s a pretty terrible range between the 24mm and 120mm lenses, as everything in between is just digital cropping. Not great for photo or video. Would have been better to have a 50mm lens at 48MP and use digital zooming for the rest.

    i use 13 pro which i bought back in 2021, used the hell out of it. its at 86% after 2 years. So it means heat is major issue because more powerful processors are producing more heat and causing more heat damage with fast charging. Apple never say anything about heat management even though we all know how hot they get while using outdoors. You can almost never use full brightness features cuz it shows heat warning after 5 minutes. But anyway just replace the battery who cares.

Right now as I’m learning about the 15 pro max, I do want to upgrade but I don’t see a huge difference between the 14 pro max. It’s only the usb c, 5x zoom, new a17 pro chip, and 19 grams lighter >< If the battery life was better, I probably would have upgraded. But let’s see bc I’m still waiting to see how it feels in person. And I want to directly buy it from apple and not an authorized reseller so I’m planning to go to Hong Kong :)

    One of the major questions with the 15 Pro Max and how it differs from previous generation iPhones e the way the new 5x zoom lens affects Portrait Mode, not just the image quality itself, but the usability and practicality aspects of dealing with such a large zoom increase (from previous 3x zoom). I use 3x Portrait Mode a lot, this is in fact the main factor to make me decide on an upgrade to the latest iPhone or not... I'm really concerned that the 120mm 5x zoom will make it very difficult to use Portrait Mode in several scenarios. So, if you can make a review very much focused in comparing Portrait Mode on the new 15 Pro Max and previous generations, specifically at 3x and 5x zoom and how different approaches and strategies are necessary to shoot the same subjects with these different zoom ranges, it would be really useful.

    I think this is a bigger upgrade for someone coming from a XS, 11, 12 series. I think if you have a 13 or 14 series this will be very boring as there isnt a huge difference especially from the 14 pro series. Most phones are so good nowadays that upgrading every year isnt absolutely neccessary unless you have to have the latest thing. Good vid bro.

    I'm moderately tempted to upgrade my 13 pro for the 28, 35 and 50mm "lenses" and automatic portrait mode. I'm torn on the 5x. The extra zoom will come in handy at times, but now anything shorter telephoto is going to look like garbage because it will be a 3-4x digital crop. I bet 120mm from the 77mm lens looks better than 77mm from the 24mm lens.
    Would be cool if they did the larger 48MP main sensor for the 3x telephoto. Then they could have 77mm but it does the same "extra lens" tricks to give 90, 120 and 150mm equivalent.

      Neither phone honestly seems to completely fall apart when directly comparing their 3x/5x modes, which surprises me. I fully expected the Pro Max to be hot garbage at 3-4.9x, and similarly the Pro to be awful at 5x. Really seems like a matter of preference on which focal range you prioritize, and if you will ever use the extra digital zoom the Pro Max gets, rather than strictly needing to get one or the other if you ever want to get a usable photo out of it's zoom gap.

    I honestly would much rather have a 3x zoom than a 5x one; I use the former a lot for portraits and a 5x is not a practical zoom length for portraits in many scenarios. Apple should've done what Samsung did and provided both the 3x and 5x (10x in Samsung's case), but since they make you choose, I can see some photography enthusiasts going with the 15 pro even if they initially wanted the 15 pro max just to get the 3x zoom.

      But Samsung wasn't able to pair that zoom with OIS, so good luck to shoot a night time photo with longer exposure or a video, where every little handsake transformed to a giant leap on the screen. They are good for fast daytime shoots, but the slower/longer shoots like night time or video is pretty unacceptable there.

    It seems to make more sense to purchase the Pro Max if you have the money for it. Not only do you get more battery, but you also have 2x "optical" zoom. So, moving from 2x to 5x optical zoom is IMO more useful than going from 2x to 3x optical zoom.

    We need a video comparing 15 pro and 15pro max for 3x and 5x modes only.
    I'm still deciding if the 5x 120mm is worth it over my initial choice of 15pro.
    Also compare screen size and battery consumption for both. Because these are the only differences between the two phones.

    So, far this is definitely the highest quality review of these I've watched, love it. Not too cringe, not too overdone, not to effortless. As for the devices, they're definitely better but still don't meet my minimum requirements in some respects, Ram, Display (Base Model), and zoom. As a 3-year iPhone 11 user who's not in any financial situation to be spending anything on phones of all things, if or when I do upgrade, I want it to be as futureproof as I need it to be within my usual ownership range, 3-5 years. What I'm mainly concerned about is how the software effects the experience of the device, both currently and in the future because my iPhone 11 hasn't held up well with these horrendously poorly developed IOS updates, iOS 16/17 being the worst of them I've used. Apple has kind of been losing me here as I feel like there's definitely more compelling competition now that they've been screwing things up from being at the top for so long.

With 2 days and a bit to go till the switch to the 15 Pro Max, I’m at 95% battery health. Although the iOS 17 betas chewed through battery health from 99% in June to 95% now.

I like to type one handed, and it was not pleasant on the 14Pro Max. I usually keep my phone for a long time (my last one was a XR), but this time, the small changes and the need to go out of the max size is enough to change... I will look at the Android offering, but I don't think it will have significant benefits for me to switch...

      Apple has 5-8% larger batteries than stated so if you stop at 99% you miss that extra free mAh and that is unfair. That is why it takes longer to fall from 100% as it uses the extra mAh before it eats into the stated battery capacity.

    The iPhone 15 Pro having WORSE battery life than the 14 Pro’s astonish me. But I guess the better the chip, the more power it’ll use. This breaks my thought process of the odd numbered iPhones having better battery and the even numbered iPhones having better hardware…

      The phone is brand new. Still needs some time to adapt to every day usage. Besides, right now it’s expected to be on the “honeymoon stage”, where you’ll be using the phone a lot more testing its limites since it’s a brand new toy. Give it a week or two and I guarantee, the battery life will surpass the iPhone 14 pro max, especially with all the updates coming after 😊 👍

      @@robertmzs I doubt it'll actually get better battery life, but I definitely agree that modern flagship phones are at a point where an hour shaved off their daily battery life here or there doesn't affect you once you get out of that honeymoon phase as you put it. I'm on a 13 which has a significantly shorter battery life than the 14 Pro, and I've only ran into problems once or twice over a year and a half. Until we start seeing battery life that can comfortably last longer than 24 hours, it really has become irrelevant unless your battery is degraded to hell and back.

      @@gwenc1371 I saw the Dave2D video and the 15PM gets better battery than 14PM and 13PM. Battery is very subjective, so if like me, you do not game, then the 15PM will get the same or better than the 14PM.

      @@andyH_EnglandMy 13PM began life with astonishing battery life. Easily a day and a half. Sometimes two days. Now it’s at 20% by midnight having been charged overnight. Why? I used to use MagSafe charging. Cooked the battery I think. Now I use wireless charging very rarely.

      @@marcusnz232 There are a few reasons why we get less battery, which is a possible reason, as heat does that.
