I look at the 15 and 15 Pro the same way I look at an A and an A+ on a report card. The A+ is better, but the A isn’t too far behind and is still a great grade.
Upgraded from 12 pro to regular 15, and I couldn’t be happier with my decision. I don’t feel like I’m missing out on any “pro” features since this base model iPhone is better in every way than the 12 pro. The gap between base and pro model is getting smaller and smaller, and I’m here for it! Just my 2 cents!

I'm glad I found this video in my search. I was almost going to go return my 15 for a 15 Pro, but this was the best, most informative and unbiased review and helped me pick the best phone for my needs!
In my opinion I see that the regular 15 is more than enough for the most of people and cheaper for about 200$ which is a lot of money but the only issue is 60hz refresh rate that's would be a problem if you came from 120hz phone
I got a $800 trade in for my iPhone 14 Plus and picked up 15 Pro. I will admit I am having a hard time getting use to the smaller screen but the phone itself is fantastic
The Pro phones really do not make sense for the vast majority of people. The extras it offers are just not that useful or worthy of an extra $200 price, and you get worse battery life as a result.
Yeah people don't understand if you are a power user it makes some since like taking advantage of video a lot and pushing the actual phone. But most just need the basic but as in most tech people think they need more than they do
People that have $1200 to spend on a phone aren’t worried about spending that $1200 anymore than somebody who has $20,000 to spend on a luxury handbag doesn’t really think much of spending $20k. If money is an issue, the entry levels’ greatest feature isn’t battery life, the processor, etc. it’s the price.
My husband has the 14 Pro and I do pinch it sometimes for macro photos.😂 I wish they brought that to the regular phones, since I really like that feature. I wouldn’t use ProRes video and I don’t mind 60hz display, although it would be nice if Apple gave the regular iPhone 90hz as a little upgrade.
@@Who-cu9eu In fact you don't needs 120fps to feel the 120hz as you fps is completely different than hz as 120 hz on 30 fps content is so much much smoother than 60hz on 30 fps also you will feel the different in the ios itself while scrolling even if you are seeing static screen 60 hz is flickering if you see it with slow motion camera and for me it really hurt my eyes as i can feel it ad annoy me so is not about only gaming & Video.
I got gifted an iPhone 15 Pro in blue titanium few days after its release date. My previous phone was the iPhone 13 128gb and I've been using this new phone for about a week now, I'm just gonna simply put it that I absolutely love this phone and its pro features. If I wasn't gifted this I would still purchase it myself.
I've used a OnePlus One for the past 8 years. My phone died earlier this week, so I switched to the base iPhone 15. Frankly, I have no use for 120Hz, so I won't miss it. And let's not forget that higher refresh rate eats into battery life. Battery life is a high priority for me.
Actually the 120hz pro motion display saves battery life for most usage as it is a variable refresh rate display, meaning it clocks down when doing slow or static tasks, and speeds up when scrolling fast or playing games.
I upgraded from the 14 pro to the Pink 15 & I’m happy with my purchase. I have no regrets. I will definitely be keeping my phone for a few years to come. I don’t see an issue with losing my 3 cameras.
wait the 15 and 14 pro are quite literally the same phone except the 15 doesnt have pro motion and the telephoto lens, was there a reason u switched phones
From iPhone 13 Pro Max to iPhone 15, after a couple weeks I’m happy with it. The 60hz and 120hz difference isn’t as noticeable for me, and I actually enjoy having a smaller phone. The only negative(which isn’t big enough for me to complain) is the battery difference. As an average person, the pro didn’t have a big enough difference to ever get one again.
Awesome video! I picked up my iPhone 15 Pro on lunch day, but I actually pre-ordered it so it would be delivered to the house. I had no trouble setting it up! Apple has done such a good job at streamlining the set up process. The camera system is incredible! If you want better, trade-in value, go directly through your carrier whether it’s AT&T Verizon or T-Mobile. We have AT&T out here in the country.
I agree the set up was so easy that’s why I never wanted to get a new phone I never remember my passwords this was so easy it put all my apps and everything made it stress free I still like my old xr it’s bullet proof but the speakers went and battery is at 65 percent and has been dropped 10 story’s and underwater a few times
* Android - upto 240w charger. * iphone - What is Watt ? We earn more than Chinese. We sell 20w charger seperately for Rs 2,000. 😀😀 * iphone : Same old notch ( now modified as "Dynamic island" ) , no charger in box, no 3.5 mm audio jack, no FM radio, no expandable memory card slot, one sim + one e-sim, usb type 'C' charging port only in latest 15 series from September 2023, only 60hz display in non pro iPhone 15 models. 🤔🤔 But, iphone is the best. 😀😀
With T-Mobile, the Iphone 15 is priced at $829 and the Iphone 15 Pro is at $999. Do you guys think paying the the extra $170 is worth the 120hz refresh rate and better processor? I plan to keep it for the next 4+ years like I kept my Iphone 11.
Greg, years and years ago, you convinced me to buy the iPhone XR, and you weren’t wrong. Here I am, after all these years, still rocking an XR!!! She’s been a workhorse with zero issues. I’d love to win a new phone 😊🤞🏼
Thanks, Greg. I have a 11. Not sure which one to get, or even to get a 14. Any move up is a great leap from the 11. Walking through all the details helped me see the differences. This helps a lot. I have an iPad, an iMac, and and MacBook Pro, so I can use the smaller phone, and watch videos on the other devices. Still not sure. This was great. I know to get the 15 now.
My brother has the 11 pro max. Still rocks. I upgraded from the SE3 to the 13. Same chip as the 14 with a little less RAM. The 11 and 13's are the legends. Plus the color options of the 15 are awful.
i upgraded from the iphone 14 pro max to the iphone 15 pro in white titanium and i've been loving it so far despite the fact that the battery lasts less... the screen is so much smoother and the phone is very lighter compared to the 14 pro max, but i wish apple made a pro phone in pink though, the iphone 15 pink is soooo pretty
This is the same thing my wife is so confused about. She likes the pro esp because of its 3 cameras but pink is her favorite color. Can u help give insight so she can decide better, pls? Thanks a lot!
@@wilsonjaysison2662I ended up buying the pink one coz it's soooo prettyyyy even if I also want 3 cameras. Well I think she should measure what she really wants since there's really not that great difference
@@alejandro8511 I'm probably not the best person to give an opinion as it's my second phone. I'm mainly an android user with an S23 Ultra as my daily driver. So far, the battery has been good. Although I haven't used it for extensive periods. I'll try and update this comment when I've properly used if for a while.
Thank you for your honesty. Really helps, I am an android user, but am looking to switch because of the find my friends feature, my wife was being followed the other day and it was frustrating not being able to find her and drive to her easily.
They have different camera hardware. iPhone 15 pro have 1/1.28 sensor size and 1.8 focal length while regular iPhone 15 have 1/1.56 sensors size and 1.6 focal length.
I have had the new iPhone in various forms each launch, the 15 pro max is by far the better offering as of yet, don't underestimate the weight change (only small on paper but you really feel it). and it just feels snappy at everything it does. so much better than my 14 PM which was a suprise even for me.
Hey I'm keeping my iPhone 13 mini but watched your video anyway really well done and a lot of info on the differences between the 15 and the 15 pro but I'm going to wait another year hopefully the 15 will get a better wide-angle camera next year I mean the 16 will get a better wide angle camera anyway nice job
The only 15 I considered was the ProMax. I wanted the 5X telephoto lens. I have used the 5X lens numerous times and it provides fantastic results. I could care zero about the 3X digital zoom versus the 3X on the non ProMax. I mainly use the ultra wide and the telephoto. Works perfect for my usage.
I've always had an android. Peer pressure is pushing me into getting an iPhone lol. It's overwhelming trying to decipher which one to get. Thank your for the informative video, it helps out tremendously.
Android girl here forever…..🙋♀️i just bought my first iPhone 15 plus two days ago it’s not a long time to tell anything but the switch for me is hard.im still struggling and looking for all the easy things that Android’s have but unfortunately are not here 😅think it well
Im a tech enthusiast, but couldnt justify the pro. I got the 15, It has a decent camera, great battery life, and a huge screen. I have sausage fingers, but couldnt justify the plus. If I cant use the thing with one hand, then I dont want it. Since when did phones become glorified tablets? I gotta say, if you are on the 13 or sooner, its worth the upgrade. I had the se 2022 model, and just gave it on to my dad.
I was surprised with how many people I know can’t tell the difference between 60 and 120 hz. I was even more surprised by how many of those people couldn’t care less about 120 hz. After using the 15 Pro, I was even super surprised how I didn’t care about 120 hz.
I definitely noticed the difference in-store, but after adjusting back to 60 Hz it really doesn't matter that much. My MacBook Pro is 120 Hz and I appreciate it, but it is not a deal-breaker, more like a luxury.
I think your conclusion is really well done, I have decided to upgrade to the 15 plus this year. Last time I had took your advice and pick up the XR and have no regret on it. Many thanks and keep up the good work.
Everyone keeps saying weight of pro max is lighter but truth is w the case it is still heavy and reason why im returning it. My pinkys and wrists hurt 😅. After much contemplation now i wondering and leaning towards 15 Plus. Anyone else feel this?
60hz is a dealbreaker. Hopefully in 2-3 yrs when I upgrade again from the 15P I’ll get the base with promotion. Side by side the difference was drastic
The wife and I will be upgrading to a 15 model as we currently have the XS Max. It looks like the regular iPhone 15 plus would be a huge upgrade compared to our XS. . Thanks for your informative reviews.
Reality it is not, there is no display difference that you able to see. I have my old XS max and 15 plus side by side, all the same to me or the old XS max has a slightly better brightness. Pay over $1,100 for a better camera and a spare battery 😢. That’s all,
Grabbed a regular 15 after being fed up with connection issues with my pixel 7. The 60hz is the only downside but I don’t really care. Everything running smooth, happy to be back to ios.
I try the iPhone 15 plus and I noticed the difference in refreshing rate finally I exchanged it for the 15 pro max in my opinion is a difference in refreshing rates
I was thinking of upgrading my gen 2 SE to an iPhone 14. The Verizon rep told me my bill would increase by about $24 per month. However, by switching to a newer unlimited plan and trading in the SE, I was able to get the 15 at the same monthly $ I’ve been paying. Hats off to my Verizon rep!
I'm dipping into the dark side and am switching from samsung to iphone and videos like this have helped me decide that i dont have to jump immediately on to the pro series
Great video. Superlative production and presentation. For $200 more, I would choose the iPhone 15 Pro Max over the iPhone 15 Plus. I would use the Pro features, as well as appreciating the extra 128 gb of storage. It's well worth the upgrade.
The 120hz display on the iPhone15 Pro is such a big upgrade over the 60hz on the iPhone 15, especially after using high refresh rate monitors for a while now! #GregsGadgetsGiveaway
Hello Greg, I have always had a Samsung phone but seeing the new iphone15 Pro and Pro Max features and great camera, I would like to switch over to the iphone. I have been reading about the 15 Pro and Pro Max for awhile and began watching your videos.. I like it very much. Thank you for helping me make my decision to switch!
I was considering the 13 Mini when my XS stops getting the latest iOS (guessing this time next year) because of the weight of the 13/14 Pros but, with the new ones getting a lighter weight frame, that idea might now be redundant. Thanks for the vid, as always! #GREGSGADGETSGIVEAWAY
Great video Greg! Regular iPhone 15 is the biggest upgrade since the 13 series, at least a 90 hz screen would've been nice but I don't think I will notice. #gregsgadgetsgiveaway
I’m still using my xs max and have had no issues for my needs. GF recently bought me the 15 regular for my birthday which is the only reason I upgraded. I have a gaming pc for gaming and higher end cameras for photos so I saw no point in upgrading over the last 6 years.
#GREGSGADGETSGIVEAWAY Hey Greg, first I'd like to say awesome and high-quality videos you've been making (and I've been enjoying:), I really found a lot of your videos entertaining even if I don't personally splurge out on tech amenities and such. It would hence be great for me to develop my photography skills on the Iphone 15 Pro that you're giving away, as I've really enjoyed carrying out my hobby on easy-to-carry devices like the Iphones. Again, keep up the good work, and thanks for reading!
I went to the Apple Store yesterday and I played with all the new iPhones 15’s and man i was so tempted to upgrade from my 14 PRO MAX to the 15 PRO.. the natural titanium color and feel makes the iPhone 15 PRO feel so good in the hand.. I can’t wait to upgrade next year to 16 PRO I’m sure Apple will give us the same phone again with new specs.. 😁
I preordered the 15 Pro Max for the 5X zoom. It will be very useful in traveling. Otherwise, it sounds like I would have been very happy with the 15 or 15 Plus. Great video! I think Apple really created a great lineup of phones this year! #gregsgadgetsgiveaway
Can't justify spending that much for a phone without a high refresh rate screen, and I also can't justify spending that much more for just a little bit more, and so I do not buy This is what Apple is making a lot of its potential buyers to think and it would help if they simply add 90hz to the regular models... Simply adding 90hz is the solution...
So far this is the only video I’ve seen that recommends the normal iphone 15 over the pro versions & I’m so happy you gave such detailed reviews about both phones! I’ve been using my iphone 11 for yrs & it’s about time for me to upgrade cause my battery health is pretty bad lol. #GREGSGADGETSGIVEAWAY
I do have an iPhone 15 Pro and I have had it since late September 2023 and I love it. I replaced my iPhone 12 Pro with this device and gave it to my mom.
Thanks for sharing the results of your tests. They’re very insightful and interesting, especially for people like us who can’t afford multiple phones to perform comparisons.😊 #GregsGadgetsGiveaway
Great review, I need to replace my old XR model and the Mrs's 11 Pro Max, seems like macro camera is biggest bridge between 15 and 15 Pro, as our current phones are well behind with camera the 15 Max will be enough to have the enhanced camera experience and with a £600 British pounds saving on two phones you have helped me dearly. Thank you.
iPhone 13 Mini 512GB user here. It's embarrassing, that a iPhone 15 offers up to 512GB but still transfers Data with the Speed of USB 2.0 from 2005 or so. (USB 2.0 Speed would take 2,36hours for 512GB, the SSD of my mac (7000MB/s) can do the same in 73seconds! Also embarrassing is, that the iPhone 15Pro makes Zoom Photos like the iPhone 15 in Terms of quality, only the 15Max does it better. The main reason, why i wanted to buy the 15 Pro was the better Camera😅 I don't care about always on Displays, Framerates higher then 60FPS and that stuff... Why do i have to wear the bigger weight and have these 3 huge Cameras in the Pro, when there's no difference between a pro and a normal 15? :D
usb 2.0 on the 15 is because the A16 Bionic. That chip doesnt have a usb 3 controller. Its only usb 2.0 because it didnt need the faster controller because of the lightning connector
Ive been having the 12 pro max for over 3 years now, and I have been thinking of going for the 12 pro max to the upcoming iphone 16 Pro. I've been noticing I tend to use only one hand to try to reach the screen and just use mostly for going through social media and watching videos and take pictures once in a while but not really take 4K video so Ill probably go with the 16 Pro when it comes out since its not far away for Fall 2024
I would really love the 15 because my current phone which is the Xs Max doesnt have face unlock. That feature stopped working on my phone. My camera, flashight and other features doesnt work any more. I had this phone for as long as i can imagine. Im not used to asking people for stuff but if you bless me, God will truly reward you in a big way. Lord knows the amount of problems im having with this phone
Upgrading from 12 pro to 15 plus I don’t really game on my phone if I want to play AAA console games I have a Ps5 and Series X for that and I don’t care about camera specs all I do is watch videos, movies and listen to music mainly using my phone so the battery and screen size of the plus model is ideal for me
I am so very confused about all the iPhone 15s. Which one should I buy? I’m upgrading from my wonderful iPhoneX. I like the pink 15 plus. I like the size of the 15 pro max. I like the action button. I like dynamic island. I’d like to be able to take macro photographs. HELP PLEASE what should I buy? Comments? Thanks! I don’t really care about refresh or battery life. I do care about cameras!
Hi 👋 I’m about to upgrade my phone to a 15 pro ,haven’t decided on the colour yet. Thankyou for teaching me about these new phones ,greetings from Sydney .
Nice video, I have recently purchased an I phone 15, I already have an OnePlus 11 as well. Most of the videos I see for phone reviews people tend to talk a lot about phone hardware , chipset , camera. One honest opinion it's my individual perception . I need a phone as a phone. For camera I would prefer a Nikon z series like Z 7 II or a Z9 since I am into wildlife photography. Phones no matter carry a good camera but Go Pro are better when it comes to portable and tough systems. The question here is why should one choose a phone as a cinema camera or action camera ? Considering people who are searching for them will end in in purchasing a camera and not a phone as a substitute of camera.
I'm using version 15 basic. iOS motion effects are so smooth, that I can't believe the screen is only 60hz. I used to use Samsung's 120hz , it was laggy and not very stable.
Glad to see the review. Wondering which iphone to get. Have an 11pro. My kid is running a free soup kitchen in the mid-east and her phone just died. I may be buying more than 1 of the right phone.
Why didn’t you compare the 15 Pro Max 6.7 to a 15 Plus 6.7. The size difference between the Pro and non-Pro 6.1 made it seem more of a major difference.
So the aluminium model is lighter than the 'premium metal' titanium version? I was originally thinking about getting a 15 Pro, but because I'm not a big camera user (for photos), and I actually prefer the matte finish of the cheaper model, I was wondering whether a standard 15 might be a better choice for me. The only problem is that I don't think any phone at this level should have less than a 90Hz screen these days. Then again, I like the idea of having a notably lighter phone. Hmm... decisions, decisions. Actually, before I make any decision I'm going to need to research the overheating issues that I've seen mentioned on the 'net, as I'm not sure if that affects both the 15 and the Pro model.
i like small phones and im confused between iPhone 15 and 15 Pro, the regular 15 looks so premium this year with cool colours and mat finish, refresh rate doesn't matter to me coz im good with 60hz, my main concern is ram difference, im attracted to the 8gb ram and 3x zoom in 15 Pro, but heard that their is heating issue in the Pro models and to control the heating issue they have reduced the performance of the Pro models..
I don't see price as an issue. If I'm using a phone for at least 5 years, spending an extra $200 for the pro model is nothing. In 5 years I could make like $300,000 income and $200 is basically nothing. So what I compare is this. What's the ONLY drawback of having a iPhone 15 pro? A slightly worse battery life then the regular iPhone 15. But what will I miss out on? A 120Hz refresh rate, better camera, and better chip. And missing out on those features for 5 years is a very long time. I would be constantly regretting not having the iPhone 15 pro for years. You only live once, so don't miss out on those features. So after using an iPhone 12 mini for 3 years, I have decided to upgrade to the iPhone 15 pro.

Total downgrade,
good for u, 14 pro is a real brick and heavy....15 is way better
I upgraded from the 14 pro to the Pink 15 & I’m happy with my purchase. I have no regrets. I will definitely be keeping my phone for a few years to come. I don’t see an issue with losing my 3 cameras.
lol, you lost 3 cameras
what people don't do or say to validate their bad puchase =D
stupid decision...
@@lok6314 lost a camera, and 120hz
wait the 15 and 14 pro are quite literally the same phone except the 15 doesnt have pro motion and the telephoto lens, was there a reason u switched phones
is 120hz a delabreaker
From iPhone 13 Pro Max to iPhone 15, after a couple weeks I’m happy with it. The 60hz and 120hz difference isn’t as noticeable for me, and I actually enjoy having a smaller phone. The only negative(which isn’t big enough for me to complain) is the battery difference. As an average person, the pro didn’t have a big enough difference to ever get one again.
Awesome video! I picked up my iPhone 15 Pro on lunch day, but I actually pre-ordered it so it would be delivered to the house. I had no trouble setting it up! Apple has done such a good job at streamlining the set up process. The camera system is incredible! If you want better, trade-in value, go directly through your carrier whether it’s AT&T Verizon or T-Mobile. We have AT&T out here in the country.
I agree the set up was so easy that’s why I never wanted to get a new phone I never remember my passwords this was so easy it put all my apps and everything made it stress free I still like my old xr it’s bullet proof but the speakers went and battery is at 65 percent and has been dropped 10 story’s and underwater a few times
How was lunch day?
since lunch was delivered to his house, i'm sure it was great. gotta love auto-correct
* Android - upto 240w charger.
* iphone - What is Watt ?
We earn more than Chinese. We sell 20w charger seperately for Rs 2,000. 😀😀
* iphone :
Same old notch ( now modified as "Dynamic island" ) , no charger in box, no 3.5 mm audio jack, no FM radio, no expandable memory card slot, one sim + one e-sim, usb type 'C' charging port only in latest 15 series from September 2023, only 60hz display in non pro iPhone 15 models.
🤔🤔
But, iphone is the best. 😀😀
Thanks for sharing your thoughts: very helpful. I’m still in the process of deciding. Blessings on your day!
With T-Mobile, the Iphone 15 is priced at $829 and the Iphone 15 Pro is at $999. Do you guys think paying the the extra $170 is worth the 120hz refresh rate and better processor? I plan to keep it for the next 4+ years like I kept my Iphone 11.
What happened
Greg, years and years ago, you convinced me to buy the iPhone XR, and you weren’t wrong. Here I am, after all these years, still rocking an XR!!! She’s been a workhorse with zero issues. I’d love to win a new phone 😊🤞🏼
Thanks, Greg. I have a 11. Not sure which one to get, or even to get a 14. Any move up is a great leap from the 11. Walking through all the details helped me see the differences. This helps a lot. I have an iPad, an iMac, and and MacBook Pro, so I can use the smaller phone, and watch videos on the other devices. Still not sure. This was great. I know to get the 15 now.
My brother has the 11 pro max. Still rocks. I upgraded from the SE3 to the 13. Same chip as the 14 with a little less RAM. The 11 and 13's are the legends. Plus the color options of the 15 are awful.
iPhone 13 base model, it's a really good upgrade from 11
I just upgraded to the 15 from the 11 and it’s so much better
I do agree that the colors are horrible though, product red was my favorite and they sadly didn’t bring it back this year 😢
@@SuperHeatWizard Actually my favourite colour too, which is why I got that one in the 13 they may bring out a red edition later In the 15.
i upgraded from the iphone 14 pro max to the iphone 15 pro in white titanium and i've been loving it so far despite the fact that the battery lasts less... the screen is so much smoother and the phone is very lighter compared to the 14 pro max, but i wish apple made a pro phone in pink though, the iphone 15 pink is soooo pretty
This is the same thing my wife is so confused about. She likes the pro esp because of its 3 cameras but pink is her favorite color. Can u help give insight so she can decide better, pls? Thanks a lot!
@@wilsonjaysison2662 just get a pink case
@@wilsonjaysison2662I ended up buying the pink one coz it's soooo prettyyyy even if I also want 3 cameras. Well I think she should measure what she really wants since there's really not that great difference
Almost everyone these days likes using their iphones with cases.
15P/15PM White titanium with a pink silicone magsafe case looks beautiful.
Cheers.
@@wilsonjaysison2662get sliver it goes well with pink cases.
Glad I chose the base iPhone 15. Such good value.
You won’t be let down
How’s the battery life?
@@alejandro8511 I'm probably not the best person to give an opinion as it's my second phone. I'm mainly an android user with an S23 Ultra as my daily driver. So far, the battery has been good. Although I haven't used it for extensive periods. I'll try and update this comment when I've properly used if for a while.
Does the battery last a day?
@@aprilandaflower3644mine had so far but I’ve only had it 2 days. I’m satisfied so far.
Great to have a comparison of the pro and non pro models, I definitely value the higher refresh rate
For me, that alone is worth the negligible price difference
@@crk140 fr after spending 850 on a phone whats 150 more xd
Thank you for your honesty. Really helps, I am an android user, but am looking to switch because of the find my friends feature, my wife was being followed the other day and it was frustrating not being able to find her and drive to her easily.
They have different camera hardware. iPhone 15 pro have 1/1.28 sensor size and 1.8 focal length while regular iPhone 15 have 1/1.56 sensors size and 1.6 focal length.
I have had the new iPhone in various forms each launch, the 15 pro max is by far the better offering as of yet, don't underestimate the weight change (only small on paper but you really feel it). and it just feels snappy at everything it does. so much better than my 14 PM which was a suprise even for me.
Great video Greg - Great explanation between the differences - Thank you - at least i know now i made a good decision by buying the regular 15
Hey I'm keeping my iPhone 13 mini but watched your video anyway really well done and a lot of info on the differences between the 15 and the 15 pro but I'm going to wait another year hopefully the 15 will get a better wide-angle camera next year I mean the 16 will get a better wide angle camera anyway nice job
Thanks for all the info. Would like more about the plus vs the standard iPhone 15.
The only 15 I considered was the ProMax. I wanted the 5X telephoto lens. I have used the 5X lens numerous times and it provides fantastic results. I could care zero about the 3X digital zoom versus the 3X on the non ProMax. I mainly use the ultra wide and the telephoto. Works perfect for my usage.
I bought the iPhone 15 Plus 512GB and have been very happy with the best longer lasting battery life out of all the 15 models.
I've always had an android. Peer pressure is pushing me into getting an iPhone lol. It's overwhelming trying to decipher which one to get. Thank your for the informative video, it helps out tremendously.
Android girl here forever…..🙋♀️i just bought my first iPhone 15 plus two days ago it’s not a long time to tell anything but the switch for me is hard.im still struggling and looking for all the easy things that Android’s have but unfortunately are not here 😅think it well
Im a tech enthusiast, but couldnt justify the pro. I got the 15, It has a decent camera, great battery life, and a huge screen. I have sausage fingers, but couldnt justify the plus. If I cant use the thing with one hand, then I dont want it. Since when did phones become glorified tablets? I gotta say, if you are on the 13 or sooner, its worth the upgrade. I had the se 2022 model, and just gave it on to my dad.
I was surprised with how many people I know can’t tell the difference between 60 and 120 hz.
I was even more surprised by how many of those people couldn’t care less about 120 hz.
After using the 15 Pro, I was even super surprised how I didn’t care about 120 hz.
I definitely noticed the difference in-store, but after adjusting back to 60 Hz it really doesn't matter that much. My MacBook Pro is 120 Hz and I appreciate it, but it is not a deal-breaker, more like a luxury.
I love how you've got an iPod Mini in the background.
I currently have an iPhone 7! I really appreciate your help in deciding what to get. Great information.
I have an 8plus and thinking it’s time to jump ahead and get a new one
@@BradfordHomestead Same here! I have a 8 plus but thinking of upgrading to 15 pro max
I switched from the pixel 7 to the 15 pro, and have no complaints. For me, the extra 180 bucks is well worth it over the regular 15
I think your conclusion is really well done, I have decided to upgrade to the 15 plus this year. Last time I had took your advice and pick up the XR and have no regret on it. Many thanks and keep up the good work.
Everyone keeps saying weight of pro max is lighter but truth is w the case it is still heavy and reason why im returning it. My pinkys and wrists hurt 😅. After much contemplation now i wondering and leaning towards 15 Plus. Anyone else feel this?
Did you get the 15 plus?
60hz is a dealbreaker. Hopefully in 2-3 yrs when I upgrade again from the 15P I’ll get the base with promotion. Side by side the difference was drastic
The differences aren’t worth £200. Glad I traded in my iPhone 13 Pro for the regular iPhone 15.
The wife and I will be upgrading to a 15 model as we currently have the XS Max. It looks like the regular iPhone 15 plus would be a huge upgrade compared to our XS. . Thanks for your informative reviews.
Reality it is not, there is no display difference that you able to see. I have my old XS max and 15 plus side by side, all the same to me or the old XS max has a slightly better brightness. Pay over $1,100 for a better camera and a spare battery 😢. That’s all,
The best video on 15 vs 15 Pro on YT. Thank you!
Grabbed a regular 15 after being fed up with connection issues with my pixel 7. The 60hz is the only downside but I don’t really care. Everything running smooth, happy to be back to ios.
Welcome back. My friend with a new Pixel 8 has tons of issues.
I try the iPhone 15 plus and I noticed the difference in refreshing rate finally I exchanged it for the 15 pro max in my opinion is a difference in refreshing rates
After watching every review on these new devices I got much more confident to switch to the (now discounted) 14 pro max.
crisp and clear comparison.. The camera really sounds good with the updates i am really up for this now.
Great Video Greg, really helps to understand the differences. I still have an 11 and either would be a huge upgrade at this point. Camera sounds great
same here. i still can’t decide if I would have the 15 or 15 pro
@@RaynierPgo for the pro phone
I was thinking of upgrading my gen 2 SE to an iPhone 14. The Verizon rep told me my bill would increase by about $24 per month. However, by switching to a newer unlimited plan and trading in the SE, I was able to get the 15 at the same monthly $ I’ve been paying. Hats off to my Verizon rep!
I'm dipping into the dark side and am switching from samsung to iphone and videos like this have helped me decide that i dont have to jump immediately on to the pro series
Thank you so much for this review! It helps a lot for us to choose and decide which iphone to buy.😇🙏
i think the normal 15 is plenty for most people, especially considering the price increase on the 15 pro max this year. #gregsgadgetsgiveaway
Switched from 13PM to 15 Plus (I LOVE the pink) and I haven’t noticed a difference… I hate the two camera set up though lol
Great video. Superlative production and presentation. For $200 more, I would choose the iPhone 15 Pro Max over the iPhone 15 Plus. I would use the Pro features, as well as appreciating the extra 128 gb of storage. It's well worth the upgrade.
Upgrading to the 15 Pro Max from the 13 Pro Max. I’m a photographer and need the amazing lenses.
iPhone 15 plus the best
Really confused. Why are you comparing the 15 to 15 Pro Max. Makes no sense at all.
The 120hz display on the iPhone15 Pro is such a big upgrade over the 60hz on the iPhone 15, especially after using high refresh rate monitors for a while now! #GregsGadgetsGiveaway
It’s not lol you can’t even notice it after a while that’s such a niche thing
Hello Greg, I have always had a Samsung phone but seeing the new iphone15 Pro and Pro Max features and great camera, I would like to switch over to the iphone.
I have been reading about the 15 Pro and Pro Max for awhile and began watching your videos.. I like it very much. Thank you for helping me make my decision to switch!
I was considering the 13 Mini when my XS stops getting the latest iOS (guessing this time next year) because of the weight of the 13/14 Pros but, with the new ones getting a lighter weight frame, that idea might now be redundant.
Thanks for the vid, as always!
#GREGSGADGETSGIVEAWAY
The minis are actually thenperfect sized phones. Its sad that apple discontinued it. Will be holding on to my 13 mini for now
Great video Greg! Regular iPhone 15 is the biggest upgrade since the 13 series, at least a 90 hz screen would've been nice but I don't think I will notice. #gregsgadgetsgiveaway
I’m still using my xs max and have had no issues for my needs. GF recently bought me the 15 regular for my birthday which is the only reason I upgraded. I have a gaming pc for gaming and higher end cameras for photos so I saw no point in upgrading over the last 6 years.
#GREGSGADGETSGIVEAWAY
Hey Greg, first I'd like to say awesome and high-quality videos you've been making (and I've been enjoying:), I really found a lot of your videos entertaining even if I don't personally splurge out on tech amenities and such. It would hence be great for me to develop my photography skills on the Iphone 15 Pro that you're giving away, as I've really enjoyed carrying out my hobby on easy-to-carry devices like the Iphones. Again, keep up the good work, and thanks for reading!
I went to the Apple Store yesterday and I played with all the new iPhones 15’s and man i was so tempted to upgrade from my 14 PRO MAX to the 15 PRO.. the natural titanium color and feel makes the iPhone 15 PRO feel so good in the hand.. I can’t wait to upgrade next year to 16 PRO I’m sure Apple will give us the same phone again with new specs.. 😁
Hahaha but if you have 14series now.. is iit ok to buy 15pro
I preordered the 15 Pro Max for the 5X zoom. It will be very useful in traveling. Otherwise, it sounds like I would have been very happy with the 15 or 15 Plus. Great video! I think Apple really created a great lineup of phones this year! #gregsgadgetsgiveaway
False. the photo quality is crap. and the specs on the iphone 15 line is all marketing hype. iphone 14 pro has better camera/photo processing
Can't justify spending that much for a phone without a high refresh rate screen, and I also can't justify spending that much more for just a little bit more, and so I do not buy
This is what Apple is making a lot of its potential buyers to think and it would help if they simply add 90hz to the regular models... Simply adding 90hz is the solution...
So far this is the only video I’ve seen that recommends the normal iphone 15 over the pro versions & I’m so happy you gave such detailed reviews about both phones! I’ve been using my iphone 11 for yrs & it’s about time for me to upgrade cause my battery health is pretty bad lol.
#GREGSGADGETSGIVEAWAY
How much screen on time u getting??
He is not the only one, quite a few on YT have said that the 15 is better value than the pro.
I do have an iPhone 15 Pro and I have had it since late September 2023 and I love it. I replaced my iPhone 12 Pro with this device and gave it to my mom.
Thanks for sharing the results of your tests. They’re very insightful and interesting, especially for people like us who can’t afford multiple phones to perform comparisons.😊 #GregsGadgetsGiveaway
Yes everything is much better this year than last year and there is much more to be happy about the line up
I would like to buy the 15 PM for the extra photo functions as I like macro photography.
Great review, I need to replace my old XR model and the Mrs's 11 Pro Max, seems like macro camera is biggest bridge between 15 and 15 Pro, as our current phones are well behind with camera the 15 Max will be enough to have the enhanced camera experience and with a £600 British pounds saving on two phones you have helped me dearly. Thank you.
iPhone 13 Mini 512GB user here. It's embarrassing, that a iPhone 15 offers up to 512GB but still transfers Data with the Speed of USB 2.0 from 2005 or so. (USB 2.0 Speed would take 2,36hours for 512GB, the SSD of my mac (7000MB/s) can do the same in 73seconds! Also embarrassing is, that the iPhone 15Pro makes Zoom Photos like the iPhone 15 in Terms of quality, only the 15Max does it better. The main reason, why i wanted to buy the 15 Pro was the better Camera😅 I don't care about always on Displays, Framerates higher then 60FPS and that stuff... Why do i have to wear the bigger weight and have these 3 huge Cameras in the Pro, when there's no difference between a pro and a normal 15? :D
I think I see even some TH-cam Content Creators using the regular non-pro iPhones for filming fairly high-resolution content anyway.
usb 2.0 on the 15 is because the A16 Bionic. That chip doesnt have a usb 3 controller. Its only usb 2.0 because it didnt need the faster controller because of the lightning connector
Apple only nerfed the USB-C and RAW features on the regular models to entice buyers to purchase the more expensive phone. That’s it. That’s the reason
I like my XR, but time to make the leap and upgrade! Thanks for the latest and greatest info!
Great review. I think I made the right choice to go with the regular 15.
Ive been having the 12 pro max for over 3 years now, and I have been thinking of going for the 12 pro max to the upcoming iphone 16 Pro. I've been noticing I tend to use only one hand to try to reach the screen and just use mostly for going through social media and watching videos and take pictures once in a while but not really take 4K video so Ill probably go with the 16 Pro when it comes out since its not far away for Fall 2024
I would really love the 15 because my current phone which is the Xs Max doesnt have face unlock. That feature stopped working on my phone. My camera, flashight and other features doesnt work any more. I had this phone for as long as i can imagine. Im not used to asking people for stuff but if you bless me, God will truly reward you in a big way. Lord knows the amount of problems im having with this phone
U can always use third party apps to shoot raw or pro resolution on the regular 15 so it’s no an issue
Great review! Seriously considering the iPhone 15 pro
Upgrading from 12 pro to 15 plus I don’t really game on my phone if I want to play AAA console games I have a Ps5 and Series X for that and I don’t care about camera specs all I do is watch videos, movies and listen to music mainly using my phone so the battery and screen size of the plus model is ideal for me
These trade ins are super underrated I got $830 for my S22 to get a 15 pro for $170 plus tax, I just wanted to try iPhone this time around
I am so very confused about all the iPhone 15s. Which one should I buy? I’m upgrading from my wonderful iPhoneX. I like the pink 15 plus. I like the size of the 15 pro max. I like the action button. I like dynamic island. I’d like to be able to take macro photographs. HELP PLEASE what should I buy? Comments? Thanks! I don’t really care about refresh or battery life. I do care about cameras!
Time to upgrade from the Xr! (sad to part ways, and I wanted to keep it another year but the screen decided to burn up)
Hi 👋 I’m about to upgrade my phone to a 15 pro ,haven’t decided on the colour yet.
Thankyou for teaching me about these new phones ,greetings from Sydney .
Nice video, I have recently purchased an I phone 15, I already have an OnePlus 11 as well. Most of the videos I see for phone reviews people tend to talk a lot about phone hardware , chipset , camera. One honest opinion it's my individual perception . I need a phone as a phone. For camera I would prefer a Nikon z series like Z 7 II or a Z9 since I am into wildlife photography. Phones no matter carry a good camera but Go Pro are better when it comes to portable and tough systems. The question here is why should one choose a phone as a cinema camera or action camera ? Considering people who are searching for them will end in in purchasing a camera and not a phone as a substitute of camera.
I'm using version 15 basic. iOS motion effects are so smooth, that I can't believe the screen is only 60hz. I used to use Samsung's 120hz , it was laggy and not very stable.
Glad to see the review. Wondering which iphone to get. Have an 11pro. My kid is running a free soup kitchen in the mid-east and her phone just died. I may be buying more than 1 of the right phone.
Great video and very informative which is helpful to decide.
who won the competition? didn't see any announcement.
only 800 dollars?? In Norway the regular model costs around 1143 dollars lmao, and that's the starting price. :(
Would be nice to finally upgrade my old iPhone to this. I might get last years used but it’d be nice to have that usb-c.
Why didn’t you compare the 15 Pro Max 6.7 to a 15 Plus 6.7. The size difference between the Pro and non-Pro 6.1 made it seem more of a major difference.
So the aluminium model is lighter than the 'premium metal' titanium version? I was originally thinking about getting a 15 Pro, but because I'm not a big camera user (for photos), and I actually prefer the matte finish of the cheaper model, I was wondering whether a standard 15 might be a better choice for me. The only problem is that I don't think any phone at this level should have less than a 90Hz screen these days. Then again, I like the idea of having a notably lighter phone. Hmm... decisions, decisions. Actually, before I make any decision I'm going to need to research the overheating issues that I've seen mentioned on the 'net, as I'm not sure if that affects both the 15 and the Pro model.
I upgraded from the 12 pro to the 15 plus and it’s a solid upgrade battery on the 15 plus is a beast I’m happy with the upgrade
Among the 4 models, the regular 15 is the best value for money.
i like small phones and im confused between iPhone 15 and 15 Pro, the regular 15 looks so premium this year with cool colours and mat finish, refresh rate doesn't matter to me coz im good with 60hz, my main concern is ram difference, im attracted to the 8gb ram and 3x zoom in 15 Pro, but heard that their is heating issue in the Pro models and to control the heating issue they have reduced the performance of the Pro models..
I don't see price as an issue. If I'm using a phone for at least 5 years, spending an extra $200 for the pro model is nothing. In 5 years I could make like $300,000 income and $200 is basically nothing.
So what I compare is this. What's the ONLY drawback of having a iPhone 15 pro? A slightly worse battery life then the regular iPhone 15. But what will I miss out on? A 120Hz refresh rate, better camera, and better chip. And missing out on those features for 5 years is a very long time. I would be constantly regretting not having the iPhone 15 pro for years. You only live once, so don't miss out on those features.
So after using an iPhone 12 mini for 3 years, I have decided to upgrade to the iPhone 15 pro.
Subscribed, great content. I have an iPhone 12, but would like the 15 pro for photography, don’t like packing my camera gear everywhere I go anymore.
