I would if you need a new phone - it’s really good. To be honest, I wish I could say just buy an older model though (iPhone 14 or 13) because they’re also really good. But I do think the USB-c port has been a game changer for me personally and will probably future proof your phone more has apple start phasing out lightning cable.
I still really like the regular size and am glad I kept it over the max version. Personally, I prioritise a phone being smaller and easier to keep in pockets etc. - Battery life: I've found the battery lasts a whole day for my personal use. I also film my videos from my iPhone (battery intensive) and the battery lasts an entire recording session. Fast charge is good too. - Video playback: Although I'm happy with the screen size for video playback, I'd say if you really care about watching videos on your phone, the larger size might be a little better. If i'm watching longer videos/content, I tend to use another device if I'm honest.
Great review!! Thanks for the good insights! Any chance you could do the Google Pixel 8 pro/normal? I have a pixel 6 pro and I'm curious to see what's different.
Not sure I'm downgrading , I literally using my iPhone 7plus for years , just last year change the battery " third party service " as the battery totally cannot make it. So in a rush I upgrade to this base iPhone 15. , Yea I know is small , come viewing stuffs on the phone different from my previous iPhone 7 plus due to larger a bit. Later I came to know a lot review, test mention iPhone 15 plus the battery is good even last slightly more than iPhone max. I saw another test it show base iPhone 15 battery win over iPhone pro. I actually every day charge the iPhone over night . Thus I guess should be ok I stay on iPhone15 base model instead keep thinking why I never get iPhone 15 plus as the battery last slightly longer.hmmm.. So I wonder whats your thoughts.
To be honest, I’ve never owned or tried the iPhone 15 plus so it’s hard to comment on the battery. From what I’ve seen though, I think the plus’ battery does last slightly longer than the base model. But I personally don’t think the battery difference should be your main consideration if you’re thinking about getting the larger phone as I think getting a phone size that you’re comfortable with is more important. I also agree with you that the base model phone probably lasts longer than the pro model so I would take a base model iPhone 15 over a pro if I were you.
@@MP_Tech20 Actually I get the base model. I used to own iphone 7+ . At first I find uneasy on the screen because I not getting the iPhone 15 plus. After few days , get used to it . Yea. I feel it got their own pro and con. I find it easy inside my jean pocket partly the base iPhone is smaller. Yea the battery wise of course the plus model last slightly longer than the base model. I do check around so call " doing a battery test " even read review , the plus version battery does last longer than the base model. Nevertheless I feel quite ok with the base model.
@@retroworldnews Think you’ve definitely made the right choice for you. I prefer smaller phones that are easier to put in my pocket too. Hope you’re enjoying the 15 :)
Will you recommend the iphone 15 over the s24? Im a photographer, i dont need the iphone for photos. I just need the video from the iphone, i dont care about the zoom too. However does the 60hz difference matter ?(and yeah the 48mp)
Hey, Video: I think iPhone video footage is a bit nicer straight out of the camera but this might be a personal preference so you should definitely check out video footage of both phones. the s24 technically shoots at a higher resolution, something you may appreciate as a photographer if you have the need for really high quality footage. Personally, I think the video resolution on the iPhone is more than good enough and there are tons of videos on TH-cam shot using the iPhone so I wouldn’t be too worried about the s24s higher resolution if it’s for personal use/uploading online. I also really like the “Pro” features on the iPhone as I like shooting in Log - Again, as a photographer, you might enjoy playing around with the colour grading etc. Overall, I’d vote for iPhone for easy nice looking footage. Display refresh rates: It’s one of those things that once you’ve used 120hz, it feels a bit weird going back to 60hz. But if you’re used to 60hz, it’s perfectly fine and you aren’t missing out on that much (Although I do personally like 120hz displays) I hope this helps
@@MP_Tech20 thankyou, will check em both physically. I just like the iphones videos more cuz they dont jitter when switching lenses,,, overall i agree with your thoughts.
i have the iPhone 15 and i love it, altought i´ve notice that the iPhone discharge even when i´m not using it it´s normal? principaly when i use 5G (i have 5G automatic)
@@MP_Tech20 if i don´t use it so much gives me a full day...my average screen on time is about 2 hours...the Phone i would said discharge 5% in an hour or so...
@@sebastiaocosta4449 I feel like 5% an hour seems like more than my phones battery loss. I've just had a quick look at some forums though and it seems a few people are complaining about battery drain issues too. Have a look at your phones settings to make sure there aren't too many apps running/refreshing in the background. Again, in my experience, I get well over a days battery with my phone and probably have similar screen time to yourself. If you're really concerned with your battery though, you could always get it check at an apple store (If possible) but I don't think yours is that bad yet.
Heyy Man loved the vid!!! Just a question which I have been thinking about a lot recently……I have been using iPhone 13 for like more than 1 year and just got iPhone 15 pro recently ….im enjoying the phone but not finding like a big difference…I just text,call and just some gaming …. imo its a bit expensive and doesn’t provide that much for that money …..I was thinking about switching to Samsung and I wanted to know from you would that be a good decision to like wait for s24 ultra
Thanks bro, I hope you found it useful. I agree that the 15 pro definitely isn’t that different from the 13. I kind of think that’s the reality for most phones now that are going to be released moving forward. They’re slightly better, but not crazy different. 100% agree that the pro is expensive. The only thing I like the pro for is shooting videos in Log format, but I’m guessing you’re not a video guy? In my opinion bro, if you’re 13 is still working battery wise etc, 100% just wait. I’ve only just switched over from Samsung to apple and I do think android is a little different. We will see what the s24 ultra looks like spec wise when it comes out!
@@MP_Tech20 Thanks man for your kind reply …..and true I’m not a video guy haha…..I have seen some videos about s24 ultra that it might have a exynos processor and all……if it comes with snapdragon 8 gen 3 or any other new snapdragon…..I would really consider it
Definitely. Even if you take a few photos / videos here and there, you’ll be more than fine. If you want to stretch the memory even more, shooting videos in 1080p and turning down the photo quality in settings will help !
The 15 is definitely a better phone. But depending on your budget / needs for a phone. Honestly, the 12 does it all. If you mainly use your phone as a screen to watch stuff, 12 is fine. If you care about cameras & processing power for mobile gaming, a newer phone would be a better shout.
As in the phone's colour? Unfortunately I've only got the black one which still looks brand new. Unsure about some of the other iphone colours. I'd guess if you kept your phone in a case, it would probably reduce any colour fade (If there is any colour fading at all)
Mine honestly didn’t heat up too often.. Only when I tried to play games like Honkai: Star Rail with maxed out graphics for 2hrs+ (Beefy game). I’d suggest checking out as many videos/forums as you can though before you commit. Even if you get one and yours ends up heating up too much, apple are really good with their 2 week refund policy so just refund it asap. Hope that helps
Would you reccomend it? (I use now a iPhone 11)
I would if you need a new phone - it’s really good. To be honest, I wish I could say just buy an older model though (iPhone 14 or 13) because they’re also really good. But I do think the USB-c port has been a game changer for me personally and will probably future proof your phone more has apple start phasing out lightning cable.
I really liked your take on this. Informative and direct to the points. Great video!
Thank you - Appreciate it!
how do u like the regular size iPhone particularly regarding battery and video playback? would you switch to Plus/Max size if given a choice now..
I still really like the regular size and am glad I kept it over the max version. Personally, I prioritise a phone being smaller and easier to keep in pockets etc.
- Battery life: I've found the battery lasts a whole day for my personal use. I also film my videos from my iPhone (battery intensive) and the battery lasts an entire recording session. Fast charge is good too.

I pray to buy iPhone 15 ❤

Is 128gb enough for a new iphone user ever? I want to keep the phone as long as I can and i dont take photos everyday, im more of a minimalist guy
I use 64 gb iPad mini. It’s more than enough for me because I save photos and videos on the cloud.
Yes it’s enough
Definitely. Even if you take a few photos / videos here and there, you’ll be more than fine. If you want to stretch the memory even more, shooting videos in 1080p and turning down the photo quality in settings will help !
no its not
Naw
I got the 12 is it better to get the 15?
Yes so much better just the feel of the phone also
The 15 is definitely a better phone. But depending on your budget / needs for a phone. Honestly, the 12 does it all. If you mainly use your phone as a screen to watch stuff, 12 is fine. If you care about cameras & processing power for mobile gaming, a newer phone would be a better shout.

Bleach from 2004-2012. Would recommend 👌
Amazing work🙌
