I went from an Xs Max to standard 15 and couldn't be happier. Much better screen (albeit slightly smaller), feels much better in hand, super camera.

@@maddestruction1 some boat as you. Really like the 15 line-up, especially the 15 pro max, how it actually feels much lighter and easier to hold than the previous bulky phones, but I've decided that I'm gonna stick with my xs max one more year before upgrading.
From 11 to 15 was just magical. Im a gamer and used to 250hz gaming. It is noticeable difference on the display but you dont need 120hz on a phone for gaming. Plus the camera is just too good for it not being a pro model. 😮

The saturation, colours and composition of every frame of the entire video are so pleasant. It's spot on. Just preserve the settings, and don't change it.
The biggest hit price-wise is in getting extra storage capacity. I ordered a 15 with 512GB of storage rather than the default 128GB.

@@reggie7871 nothing I just was thinking about going to a smaller device this year as I always get the pro max .. but the battery life. Is not good on the smaller devices
I went from a 14 pro to the 15 plus, I found myself not needing "pro" features for regular use. The USB-C upgrade is a plus for me for sure; the biggest upgrade I found myself loving is the MASSIVE upgrade in battery life. My 14 pro could barely last me half the day.
@@SwissDylan I saved money trading up, now I have no phone payment. But the battery life was terrible, at least in mine. I did not want to get rid of the purple sadly…but it was worth it.
I went from the 14 Pro to the 15 Plus as well and I agree! The battery life is just a huge improvement. I would go from 89% to 60% battery on my 14 Pro without even using it that much throughout the day. My 15 Plus barely gets below 82% after a regular work day.
I'm pleased I made the right decision. This is my first time watching your video, and I think it's the best one! I've had the iPhone 15 for two weeks, and it's a significant upgrade from my XR. The battery life is outstanding, the bezels are much smaller, and the 60Hz display doesn't bother me at all. Plus, I really like the USB-C port!
This is what I have and after a few weeks I am happy with my decision. I have no need and therefore no desire for a "Pro" phone. I just need a basic device and this 15 is perfect for me. I'm happy with the battery life and screen size for what I use it for. It's easy to pocket/carry, iOS 17.1 is good, the apps are good, the cameras are great.
I’m a welder and I believe the IPhone 14 pro is a solid build. Titanium is a difficult metal to work with vs heat. The iPhone 15 pro have amazing specs but the iPhone 14 pro has a better build and is a very solid computer phone. My opinion don’t upgrade the iPhone 14 pro will prove it’s very capable and one of Apple’s most durable phones.
The video aesthetics are amazing. The hdr shots of the phone screen with backlighting is so beautiful the way it looks. Also straight to the point. Still rocking my 14 pro, great video.
Iphone 15 looks good on my 15pro screen... Joke aside, I dont regret buying the pro because of the screen, 120hz rate etc. But I sugest to test them in the store before you buy it, maybe some ppl will not notice so then the 15 will be the best buy. Cheers!
Thanks for this. Great video as usual. I’ve never had a pro-iPhone. The base model is well enough for me. Now I'm sure that the pro models are great( hence the price) but I'm just an average dude and I'm using my for for average things. I'm not a photographer for example who needs that extra camera, raw images etc. But one thing is killing me. And that's the 60Hz refresh rate. I need that 120Hz pro-motion. It's time for Apple to include that feature in the base models too. Even the cheapest Android phones have had it for years now.
My 2 reasons for upgrading, USB-3 speeds with USB-C and a bigger Pro Motion screen as I got the Pro Max this time. Some of us don't stream music so being able to sync fast is a must. I've got about 300GB of music. If it wasn't for these 2 things, I'd have kept my 13 Pro.

I have an iPhone 11 and learned you don't have to pick up your phone the check the time. Just double tap the screen and the screen will light up. I ordered a new iPhone 15 plus in blue or white or white/blue. I liked this color most because had there been a white option for the iPhone 15 or plus I would have gotten that, but the blue looks more white than blue......LOL
The big thing is that the Pro is actually not that much more expensive. So if you have the money for a 15 then you might as well just spend some extra bucks on the 15 pro. And then you will have a premium phone for the next at least 5 years. So the pro is actually more worth it in the long run.
if it wasn't for the fact that the 15 Pro has a terrible battery life, it has overheating problems, quality assembly issues and discoloring of the titanium paint.. lol
@marilson84 well then in that case I say the smaller 6.1 pro Is better for smaller hands. Though more expensive the 100 dollar difference for the increased power and features is worth it. But I have big hands and a pro Maxs' price is just no.
After watching a bunch of videos from battery tests to durability tests, 15 vs 15 pro, the non pro has much better battery, much better durability, it is smaller/lighter meaning it should also last longer. The 15 pro has the zoom camera (77mm f/24 FF equivalent, that's very bad, in my opinion useless), it has pro motion, and 20% faster graphics to play the AAA games if you're a gamer. I ordered the 15 pro, but I cancelled my order and purchased the non pro when I learned about these advantages over the pro, I’m very happy with that decision :)
@@brunero2007that isn’t that big of a deal. Coming from a 13 max ( wanting a smaller phone again) i got the standard 15. Honestly after a couple days the 60 hz looks and feels just as smooth. Apple animations are just too smooth
The pro is both smaller (height but thicker) and lighter, but other than that, I agree with your comparison. (I was wrong the 15 pro is heavier than the 15, but lighter than the 14 pro)
Returned my Pro for the 15 Plus and I'm completely satisfied. Yes 60hz is a downgrade but after a day I don't even notice it anymore. And amazing battery life
@@AndrewStories battery is excellent. Look up some battery test videos on here the 15 plus has the best battery out the whole new lineup even better than the Pro Max
120Hz promotion display is well worth it on a bigger display like iPad Pro. Other than frequent mobile gaming, idk why else people would need 120 Hz on a 6 inch device. Most content on social media is 60 Hz anyway.
Well I went from the XR to the 13 pro and while you do notice the smoothness I usually tend to forget about it and don’t even notice it switching between my 120hz iPhone to 60hz MacBook Air, probably due to the screen size 😅
Just switched from an Android phone to an iPhone 15 pro, the experience has been great as of now, I don't really use the "pro" features or cameras as often but the only thing that made me get it instead of a normal iPhone 15 was the 120hz display. I really hope apple considers increasing the refresh rate of their standard iPhones in the future
Went for the 15 plus this year over the pro for the first time in a while and might be my favorite phone yet. Was close to rocking without a case but already have a few scratches.
WEIGHT has become a key need for me. Going from the heavy 13 Pro Max to the 15 Plus was 40 grams lighter, and feels really significant; like a boost in quality of life.
Great video buddy. I love watching review videos on Apple products. I just upgraded to the iPhone 15 back in early February and loving every aspect of the device. Like you mentioned at the end of the video, I am not a pro user, so 60 Hz refresh speed on the display is fine for me. I am a photography guy with my iPhone so yes I take a lot of photos and videos. Thank you again, great video and review!
yeah feel like the vanilla 15 especially with the newer than 15pro 48mp sensor is really good, for cameras easily better than the pros unless you need further reach. 60hz is okay, 120hz would be awesome. usb3 would be great too if you transfer lots of camera pictures or videos into the phone. Otherwise people who don't really require those features plus proraw prores the regular 15 are a great basic phone, much better than the regular 14s.
It’s not that bad. I had the 14 pro too and made a decision to get the iPhone 15 plus to try it out. You’ll get used to it after a while. It’s a very good upgrade. U should probably get one before it’s gone
I'm planning on upgrading from an iPhone 11, which should i get? The base 15 or the 14 Pro? (I don't like the Plus and Pro Max, I want my phone to feel comfy in my pocket. Also still skeptical of the titanium 15 pros)
I kept debating on getting 14 pro or 15 base, tbh the 15 base really caught my attention. Tbh yes I did talk sh*t abt at first, but after seeing a lot of reviews and impression, it slowly grew of me. So I'm planning to get one if the condition allow it
@@Jasonpantazis update, I did get the 15. Its on sale for like $60 in my place so I just take it. After a long debate since making the comment. I would say the 15 base is still a better option as it will be my daily driver. Of course if you planning to do more than daily use, I'd say 14 pro is still viable, but that type C indeed simplified a lot of cable problems (For me at least)
Great points Kyle! Really loved how you explained everything.. and the b roll shots are too good! Personally, I love the promotion display and definitely couldn’t go back to a phone without it!
thanks for the info. my iphone 15 pro was stolen two weeks ago and i can confirm its way to powerful for everyday use. after this video (thanks kyle) i will be getting iphone 15. keep well
I'd pull the plug on the regular 15 model if it wasn't for the 120hz screen honestly...there's literally nothing else holding me from buying it aside from having that higher refresh rate user experience with the animations and scrolling. There's just not going back to 60hz sadly after trying 120hz on any other phone.
Yeah I got to agree I know it seems like a small thing but go from a Samsung phone that’s got 120 Hz and then pick up the iPhone you see it right away I do but besides that the iPhone 15 gray phone I wish they at least up to 90 and then it would be. It’d be fine maybe next year
For the Action Button and the always on display got me to the Pro 15. I would think about switching to the regular 15, but I have had zero heat issues and so I think I got a particularly good unit so I don't wanna sway from it at this point. Plus I wanna try the micro photography camera.
I’m looking to upgrade to the iPhone 15 Plus or the IPhone 15 Pro. I don’t really care about pro res or raw videos. What I do want is to be able to take some decent photos with zoom.
@@DryIceyboi I’m still on the fence. I like the larger screen and better battery life of the 15 Plus. I don’t need a complex camera. I do want to be able to take some decent photos of things in the distance though.
@@sarahkahl316 the plus is great but the pro is the best option if you want that. The display will be great don’t worry about the size it is only a slight difference
iPhone 15 all the way. For a while now I have been buying old pro versions years after their release, and this has served me well. For the first time I am going to buy a brand new iPhone 15 because of the USB C port, its shelf life and resale value. I currently have a Samsung S10+ but I also use a MacBook Air M1 which has a capped refresh rate of 60hz. For most people, these so called pro features don't really matter and go unnoticed.
I personally appreciate 120 Hz refresh rate, as it fatigue my eyes less than 60 Hz when scrolling. So for me there’s no choice other than going to the pro. I tried the 15 in the shop and I found it as good as the 15 pro, except from the refresh rate
Is it really such a big difference? I’ve got a 13 pro and tbh I sometimes set the battery saving mode and it sets the refresh rate to something like 30hz. You can of course see the difference but it still feels okay. Maybe matter of personal preference. But 60hz is what MacBooks have anyway (I’ve got the one from 2019, maybe the new pro is 120hz)
I went from an Xs Max to standard 15 and couldn't be happier. Much better screen (albeit slightly smaller), feels much better in hand, super camera.

@@justinl8455 thats what I did. i returned the 15 pro for the 15 plus and I love it
I purchased the 256 model. Do you have iCloud storage? It is inexpensive and then you really don’t need to worry how much space you have on your phone.
you can take it back within 14 days. they'll swap it.
@@reggie7871 nothing I just was thinking about going to a smaller device this year as I always get the pro max .. but the battery life. Is not good on the smaller devices
I went from a 14 pro to the 15 plus, I found myself not needing "pro" features for regular use. The USB-C upgrade is a plus for me for sure; the biggest upgrade I found myself loving is the MASSIVE upgrade in battery life. My 14 pro could barely last me half the day.
Upgrading from a 14 pro is basically just wasting money because the 14 is already very good
@@SwissDylan I saved money trading up, now I have no phone payment. But the battery life was terrible, at least in mine. I did not want to get rid of the purple sadly…but it was worth it.
@@liam9069but i would say the standard iphone 15 is better than the plus the 15 is alot more comfortable in hand
@@ShahadatDhussain i can agree that its nice for one handed use for sure. I just prefer the better battery span with the plus
I went from the 14 Pro to the 15 Plus as well and I agree! The battery life is just a huge improvement. I would go from 89% to 60% battery on my 14 Pro without even using it that much throughout the day. My 15 Plus barely gets below 82% after a regular work day.
I'm pleased I made the right decision. This is my first time watching your video, and I think it's the best one! I've had the iPhone 15 for two weeks, and it's a significant upgrade from my XR. The battery life is outstanding, the bezels are much smaller, and the 60Hz display doesn't bother me at all. Plus, I really like the USB-C port!
I saw like 20 review for the iPhone 15 and I don't know why but your video is the best
Im upgrading from my iphone 12 mini to the normal 15, and am very excited to see all the improvements. Thanks for the amazing explanation and review ❤
Me too. The 12 mini was too small for me. The normal 15 is very big after two years with the mini. 😂
Same here. I will be shifting to 15 from a 12 mini. I am excited it will be a huge upgrade in terms of battery life.
@@rabbi4293 it is trust me
Same bro
You all should better get the 13-14 pro...
This is what I have and after a few weeks I am happy with my decision. I have no need and therefore no desire for a "Pro" phone. I just need a basic device and this 15 is perfect for me. I'm happy with the battery life and screen size for what I use it for. It's easy to pocket/carry, iOS 17.1 is good, the apps are good, the cameras are great.
subscribing because the video quality is impressive, even the presentation skills ❤
Great job on the colour grading bruv. Real professional.
Awesome job. First time seeing one of your videos and was blown away by the quality.
I’m a welder and I believe the IPhone 14 pro is a solid build. Titanium is a difficult metal to work with vs heat. The iPhone 15 pro have amazing specs but the iPhone 14 pro has a better build and is a very solid computer phone. My opinion don’t upgrade the iPhone 14 pro will prove it’s very capable and one of Apple’s most durable phones.
Also what I think. Will go for the Iphone 14 Pro this year.
I hated my 14 Pro. The batterylife was horrible. Got the 15 and really pleased so far!😊

The video aesthetics are amazing. The hdr shots of the phone screen with backlighting is so beautiful the way it looks. Also straight to the point. Still rocking my 14 pro, great video.
Iphone 15 looks good on my 15pro screen... Joke aside, I dont regret buying the pro because of the screen, 120hz rate etc. But I sugest to test them in the store before you buy it, maybe some ppl will not notice so then the 15 will be the best buy. Cheers!
I went from iPhone 13 mini to iPhone 15 love it no more SIM card love the new features & the battery last longer thanks for sharing!!
What about the bigger size? Is it a lot different and do you use it one hand? I'm using my 13mini and not sure
how is iPhone 15 after 13 mini? is it too big or normal size?
Thanks for this. Great video as usual. I’ve never had a pro-iPhone. The base model is well enough for me. Now I'm sure that the pro models are great( hence the price) but I'm just an average dude and I'm using my for for average things. I'm not a photographer for example who needs that extra camera, raw images etc. But one thing is killing me. And that's the 60Hz refresh rate. I need that 120Hz pro-motion. It's time for Apple to include that feature in the base models too. Even the cheapest Android phones have had it for years now.
More expensive doesn't necessarily equal better (or great).
My 2 reasons for upgrading, USB-3 speeds with USB-C and a bigger Pro Motion screen as I got the Pro Max this time. Some of us don't stream music so being able to sync fast is a must. I've got about 300GB of music. If it wasn't for these 2 things, I'd have kept my 13 Pro.
Hey, where do you get your music from?
@@gururajchadaga Amazon, CDs, Bandcamp and even a bit from iTunes. I ripped all my CDs a number of years ago which is where the bulk of the songs I have originated.
What app do you use to listen the music?
@@erandenix With my iPhone, mostly Apple Music. I use to use a app made by Korg but they discontinued it and I've not rabbit holed on another yet. Suggestions? :D
Totally agree about the colours. Pastel and faint. Ill go for the black without hesitation.
I have an iPhone 11 and learned you don't have to pick up your phone the check the time. Just double tap the screen and the screen will light up. I ordered a new iPhone 15 plus in blue or white or white/blue. I liked this color most because had there been a white option for the iPhone 15 or plus I would have gotten that, but the blue looks more white than blue......LOL
This is the kind of review I would want to watch.
The big thing is that the Pro is actually not that much more expensive. So if you have the money for a 15 then you might as well just spend some extra bucks on the 15 pro. And then you will have a premium phone for the next at least 5 years. So the pro is actually more worth it in the long run.
if it wasn't for the fact that the 15 Pro has a terrible battery life, it has overheating problems, quality assembly issues and discoloring of the titanium paint.. lol
@@marilson84 the IPhone 15 Plus is the best IPhone this year. It has the big screen of the Pro Max without the price.
@@FoxtrotStudi0s I know but it's too big for me
@marilson84 well then in that case I say the smaller 6.1 pro Is better for smaller hands.
Though more expensive the 100 dollar difference for the increased power and features is worth it.
But I have big hands and a pro Maxs' price is just no.
@Yuuki-sg4mu enjoy your phone if you like it, don't base your happiness on other's opinion ;)
After watching a bunch of videos from battery tests to durability tests, 15 vs 15 pro, the non pro has much better battery, much better durability, it is smaller/lighter meaning it should also last longer.
The 15 pro has the zoom camera (77mm f/24 FF equivalent, that's very bad, in my opinion useless), it has pro motion, and 20% faster graphics to play the AAA games if you're a gamer.
I ordered the 15 pro, but I cancelled my order and purchased the non pro when I learned about these advantages over the pro, I’m very happy with that decision :)
dont forget that the 15 pro has 120hz display while the 15 has 60
@@brunero2007that isn’t that big of a deal. Coming from a 13 max ( wanting a smaller phone again) i got the standard 15. Honestly after a couple days the 60 hz looks and feels just as smooth. Apple animations are just too smooth

it was a great experience watching this video, every frame felt amazing and colors were incredibly nice.
Returned my Pro for the 15 Plus and I'm completely satisfied. Yes 60hz is a downgrade but after a day I don't even notice it anymore. And amazing battery life
How good is your battery life? I'm looking at that model and the number one thing I care about is the battery.
@@AndrewStories battery is excellent. Look up some battery test videos on here the 15 plus has the best battery out the whole new lineup even better than the Pro Max
I'm going to change my S22 for the base iPhone 15. The only thing concerning me is the 60 Hz, I hope I can give up easily and not regret my purchase.
@@Ernest0oit took me 2 days of usage to forget it. First time iphone user here
Using iphone 15 for almost two months .. never did i regret
120Hz promotion display is well worth it on a bigger display like iPad Pro. Other than frequent mobile gaming, idk why else people would need 120 Hz on a 6 inch device. Most content on social media is 60 Hz anyway.
Scrolling and moving through the phones UI is totally worth 120hz. And that’s not just speaking on iPhone.
After upgrading from the 12 pro to the 15 pro, the display speed is very noticeable with 120hz.
Well I went from the XR to the 13 pro and while you do notice the smoothness I usually tend to forget about it and don’t even notice it switching between my 120hz iPhone to 60hz MacBook Air, probably due to the screen size 😅
Great point. I have the ipad pro. I turn the 120 off to save some battery on my 13pro. High rr is more noticeable on bigger screens
is not about content, is about using your phone itself, once you’re used to 120hz you can’t go back
Just switched from an Android phone to an iPhone 15 pro, the experience has been great as of now, I don't really use the "pro" features or cameras as often but the only thing that made me get it instead of a normal iPhone 15 was the 120hz display. I really hope apple considers increasing the refresh rate of their standard iPhones in the future

Great video! Had to subscribe because you are the best video I have seen out of everyone on TH-cam, explaining the iPhone 15. Good job!
Amazing review! Came across this channel today and this is my first ever video. Just subscribed keep up the great content!
I love my iPhone 15. It’s lightweight and small. The black mat color is amazing!! Good battery life, and a perfect price
nope, black is for dust collecting .....blue is like white almost.
incredible video quality 🙌🏼
Great video to watch - I've just upgraded from the 6 plus and love it - no more lag!
I do miss the prores but apart from that I think especially the Plus is amazing this year. Upgrades in every way.
WEIGHT has become a key need for me. Going from the heavy 13 Pro Max to the 15 Plus was 40 grams lighter, and feels really significant; like a boost in quality of life.
Very happy with my iPhone 15 Plus. Battery life and cost for extra storage (500ishgb) was well worth it over the Pro models.

Great video buddy. I love watching review videos on Apple products. I just upgraded to the iPhone 15 back in early February and loving every aspect of the device. Like you mentioned at the end of the video, I am not a pro user, so 60 Hz refresh speed on the display is fine for me. I am a photography guy with my iPhone so yes I take a lot of photos and videos. Thank you again, great video and review!
I was amazed to see how gorgeous the video looked. Great job man, keep doing great work.
I was confused however Kyle you clarified all of the points in your video and now I have a bit of clarity as in which series to choose. Thanks mate.
yeah feel like the vanilla 15 especially with the newer than 15pro 48mp sensor is really good, for cameras easily better than the pros unless you need further reach. 60hz is okay, 120hz would be awesome. usb3 would be great too if you transfer lots of camera pictures or videos into the phone. Otherwise people who don't really require those features plus proraw prores the regular 15 are a great basic phone, much better than the regular 14s.
I decided to upgrade from my 12 pro after seeing this video, thanks so much!
Sticking with my 14 pro for now. I wanted to get the regular 15 but I got used to 120hz display I don’t think I can go back to 60hz.
Go to settings motion limit it to 60 and try it for a few days
It’s not that bad. I had the 14 pro too and made a decision to get the iPhone 15 plus to try it out. You’ll get used to it after a while. It’s a very good upgrade. U should probably get one before it’s gone
I just upgraded from my 13 Pro Max to a 15 Pro Max. Base phones are too small for me. Absolutely luvin' my 15 Pro Max!
Brilliant review, Kyle! Keep it up! Also, nice thoughts on the regular 15! Agreed! (written from my iPhone 15 Plus :)
From a 14 plus to an Iphone 15 pro max A17 is the biggest gink to me gotta love it.
USB-C is also a little/big plus🔥
I'm planning on upgrading from an iPhone 11, which should i get? The base 15 or the 14 Pro? (I don't like the Plus and Pro Max, I want my phone to feel comfy in my pocket. Also still skeptical of the titanium 15 pros)
Defently 15

Im going from a 11 Pro Max to an iPhone 15. Just waiting for the mail to run tomorrow. So excited
Watching on iPhone 15 🖤
Love love love the video! Feels so cinematic!
I kept debating on getting 14 pro or 15 base, tbh the 15 base really caught my attention. Tbh yes I did talk sh*t abt at first, but after seeing a lot of reviews and impression, it slowly grew of me. So I'm planning to get one if the condition allow it
14 pro is definitely the better phone
same dilemma here. So did you eventually buy the 15 base?
Same here. This is the only thing that has been on my mind for the past week.
@@Jasonpantazis update, I did get the 15. Its on sale for like $60 in my place so I just take it. After a long debate since making the comment. I would say the 15 base is still a better option as it will be my daily driver. Of course if you planning to do more than daily use, I'd say 14 pro is still viable, but that type C indeed simplified a lot of cable problems (For me at least)
bought 15 plus yesterday and very very satisfied with it
have the 15 plus, really like it. light and fits in hand well
Where are you all over this years? Of course I’m subscribe! Awesome video.
Great points Kyle! Really loved how you explained everything.. and the b roll shots are too good!
Personally, I love the promotion display and definitely couldn’t go back to a phone without it!
thanks for the info. my iphone 15 pro was stolen two weeks ago and i can confirm its way to powerful for everyday use. after this video (thanks kyle) i will be getting iphone 15. keep well
I'd pull the plug on the regular 15 model if it wasn't for the 120hz screen honestly...there's literally nothing else holding me from buying it aside from having that higher refresh rate user experience with the animations and scrolling. There's just not going back to 60hz sadly after trying 120hz on any other phone.
Yeah I got to agree I know it seems like a small thing but go from a Samsung phone that’s got 120 Hz and then pick up the iPhone you see it right away I do but besides that the iPhone 15 gray phone I wish they at least up to 90 and then it would be. It’d be fine maybe next year
Same here that and the older cpu
The difference in speeds is not that noticeable.

Get the iPhone 15 plus. The 15 pro over heat
iPhone 15 all the way. For a while now I have been buying old pro versions years after their release, and this has served me well.
For the first time I am going to buy a brand new iPhone 15 because of the USB C port, its shelf life and resale value. I currently have a Samsung S10+ but I also use a MacBook Air M1 which has a capped refresh rate of 60hz.
For most people, these so called pro features don't really matter and go unnoticed.
I personally appreciate 120 Hz refresh rate, as it fatigue my eyes less than 60 Hz when scrolling.
So for me there’s no choice other than going to the pro.
I tried the 15 in the shop and I found it as good as the 15 pro, except from the refresh rate
so annoying apple keeps giving us 60hz on new phones. if the iphone 14 plus product red had 120hz i wouldve bought it in a heartbeat
Yet there will be users praising 15 over 15 pro because battery lasts longer. Obviously it does, you got 60hz display.
totally agree with your opinion, 120 hz adaptive promotion of screen is fascinated me, i'm not satisfy with 60Hz on standard iphone 15.
Is it really such a big difference? I’ve got a 13 pro and tbh I sometimes set the battery saving mode and it sets the refresh rate to something like 30hz. You can of course see the difference but it still feels okay. Maybe matter of personal preference. But 60hz is what MacBooks have anyway (I’ve got the one from 2019, maybe the new pro is 120hz)
