quick correction - ProRes is on some earlier iPhones but the 15 Pro is the first to introduce AppleLOG
Ok 👍🏻
from iphone 11 to 15 pro its downgrade =/
Worse usability, worse camera, worse stability.
@@jaygreen1181 Not a single one of those things is true, as someone who made basically the same upgrade. Camera is lightyears ahead, usability has been slightly improved and "stability" depends on the OS that both phones share, so
@@jaygreen118160 -> 120hz could never be considered a downgrade

Super refreshing to see a phone review done by somebody who doesn’t upgrade every year!
This
and someone who uses the pro model the way it was intended
can i have your old phone?
how its supposed to be
I just use my phone until it gets annoying and unusable. Still have an xr no problems whatsoever. Can just replace the battery every 5 years for $100.
You have no idea how I appreciate the cleanness of scenarios in your videos. No “thank you for watching, subscribe, turn on notifi-“ trash. Quality of your work speaks for itself. The channel is a gem in my subscriptions.
yeah his vids are great. no filler and no nonsense
Totally agree
No ads so heres one, buy his wallpapers bro and support
wait no ads? does he make money solely from wallpapers?@@Sleepyless
Agreed. I watch a Call of Duty content creator Handler often and it's for the same reason you stated. Clean well thought-out content without any unnecessary BS added.
Went from the XR to the 15 Pro just recently. I agree that it was just the accumulation of upgrades and not just one single thing.
I went from XR to 15 non-pro because I heard the 15 Pro had less battery life. How are you finding the battery life?
@@veetour changed from iPhone XR to 15 Pro just like OP. In my experience, battery life is great, lasts over a day (I don't stress it too much with games however)
@@kooliek The issue with the battery are only apparent to people who upgraded from 14 or 13 I think. Compared to the XR it should be fantastic.
@@Dionyzoseven the regular iPhone 13 had pretty good battery life. Here with my 13 pro max after 2 years and it usually survives a day as a heavy user.
@@veetour Literally only charge it every other day almost. Maybe once a day if i play some games or watch youtube but so much better than XR. I was having to charge that about twice a day or more.
Optimum cinematic universe is getting crazy. Can't wait for the day when this channel becomes my one and only tech channel
haha im already at that point with linus having a scandal recently and him just delegating all of his vids to his staff.
It's always a bad idea to rely on a single channel. You want multiple reliable sources to have the most objective opinion possible.
@@cleenred8520 True, i was just trying to compliment optimum for doing such a good job at making content in various fields. no matter what the video is about i always seem to enjoy his content
@@cleenred8520optimum and gamers nexus. Covered.
GN, HWU and Optimum are the best. Sad to see other channels struggle (linus, bitwit, jayz...)
Me too. I just upgraded from the 11 pro to the 15 pro. I appreciate the larger brighter screen, the always on display, and the better camera, particularly the 3x zoom
Which storage did you go for?
I’m in the same boat as you, got myself an iPhone 13 Pro Max and I’m happy to keep it another 2 or so years. Especially with how slowly features are being added compared to the early models, there really isn’t a reason to upgrade any sooner than that.
I upgraded to that model for the refresh rate, and really nothing else will give me a reason to upgrade anytime soon
Literally,
Same here
12 pro max probably upgrade in 1 or 2 years.
I always thought 60hz was "fine" for a phone but then I got the 13 pro max. How wrong I was its such a nice QoL feature
Same here, but with the regular 13 Pro :) I wanted a high refresh OLED screen. I think the dynamic island is worse than what's on my 13 as it cuts further into the screen vertically, so I'll be waiting till they remove or shrink the notch before upgrading again.
Exact same
I went from a 7 to a 15 pro, definitely finally time to upgrade. Besides the camera, screen, refresh rate, etc, the USBC was just too much to ignore or delay any longer.
not even face id or no home button or bigger phone
that is fucking insane, that mustve been the greatest upgrade of all time haha
I’m looking to do that
My 7 has a dodgy wire or something that makes it crash if you plug it in wrong lmao
And the battery is truly sad
I just ordered the 15 pro. Still using my iphone 7 and love it, sad I can't update ios. 7 still seems to run very fast and pictures and video are crystal clear.
I love how you go straight to the point while also not forgetting important details, it's really refreshing
I'm also thinking of going from an iPhone 11 to an iPhone 15 pro like you (or pro max) and seeing what someone in the same boat as me thinks about upgrading to this phone is a big plus considering how every other tech channel updates every year to the newest iPhone which is not relatable at all and barely helpful to most people
sameeee
So true. Every single video I watch is comparing one generation to the next and everyone in the comment section always says too little change to warrant getting the upgrade, but for us that have phones from a few generations ago it's a big difference.
why are his shots more cleaner than the official Apple comercial??
Because he’s a G.
always enjoy the perspective of someone who doesn’t upgrade year over year. i hope to get 4 years on my 14 Pro if i can
You can, I did 3 years on 12 mini and just gave up because of battery life (had already replaced it once) but 14 pro battery is good
Yes, that's nice. My 6 years old SE (2016 model) is still in use - I replaced battery once after first 4 years, and next battery's health (2 years in use) is still 98% (although capacity is worth than original). I use it caseless, and despite multiple drops, it's got only few scars on aluminium frame, the screen is still has no scratches even minor. The main problem is that despite 7 years of support, it gets only security updates now, and the latest available OS is IOS15... Hence some important modern applications can't be installed. Screen size is not either not relevant sometimes for modern apps, and it pushes to upgrade the phone.
But is just great to use a phone many years without necessity to upgrade it.
Car guy, Great PC Builder, Works out and a honest reviewer that doesn't get bribed by sponsors, what a guy Optimum Tech is.
You could say he's...
Optimal.
Car guy?
@@ArdaSReal He had car videos in his feed around 2:17.
and good music taste
@@ArdaSRealThe RS3 you see in this video is his, and he’s modified it.
Only found your channel a couple of months ago, but the super high-quality visuals and really interesting topics have kept me coming back for every upload. Great content and great job - keep it up! 👌
This video was so inspiring. I will be going away from updating my tech devices so frequently. They are just tools that help us communicate, entertain, and get things done. What he didn't mention is the amount of money he saved up along the way. Great job partner!
Went from 12 mini to 15 Pro on launch day, I thought I'd miss the compact feeling of 12 mini but 15 Pro Titanium Frame and lighter feeling while actually a lot bigger in display size is amazing. Glad I upgraded this year. No more charging twice a day anymore.
I’m still rocking an 11 pro max. I had battery life issues too but after a replacement at apple it’s good to go again.
Optimum is so real for having the absolute latest pc but a relatively old phone
Hands down the greatest production quality in the entire TH-cam tech fraternity.
Best video of the iPhone 15 Pro I've seen, by far! The video quality is insane, there is a LOT of plan on the product or of the product, and not the youtuber... :/ and everything is so smooth and so pleasing to watch and listen! THANK YOU mate! ^^
I really love how he said getting the newest iPhone is just a flex at this point, because we have hit the ceiling of the performance you can get out of a phone. We could get 360hz 8k displays on phones, but it wont make a noticeable difference from what we have right now. I think there will never be a phone with a big enough performance gap from the iPhone 15. We will only keep on upgrading our phones because its cool and not because its actually a better phone.
This was a treat , we get a very high quality video from a different pov. Watched the entire thing. Will be purchasing one now. Thx
coolest tech channel on youtube period
The best
his videos and Marques Brownlee's are the only ones I still watch every video.
Its hilarious how dark pits like linustechtips employ dozens of people to make videos and they all look like crap
While this guy just does some post processing and pays attention to colors and he blows everyone away on his own
forgot the period, before period.
@@TuriGamer Linus uses 100k USD cameras :)
You're really going to appreciate the USB-C port when you're offloading your video footage off the phone. Massive difference from lightning and actually encourages you to use the iPhone camera because it's not painful to get the data off. ProRes is just gravy. Now that you have MagSafe, you can pick up a bedside MagSafe charger too. Not required but a nice addition. I did the same 11 to 15 Pro upgrade myself and was a bunch of little things that made it worthwhile.
This was the main thing I was thinking after he brushed through the port change portion of the video
@@josiahferrill6189 He mentioned using Airdrop to transfer files to the Macbook, making a wired connection rather moot.
magsafe is kinda gimmicky to me ngl but the USB C port sounds like a godsend. I have a 13 pro rn so i likely wont upgrade for at least 2 years but not having to deal with a fucking lightning cable anymore sounds incredible. It actually turns your phone into something much more usable for actual real tech shit lol. Like for me im not a youtube but being able to plug in my usb c thumb drive will be so gd helpful.
I bet the USB-C is also a lot less demanding /prone to damage from abrasion or uneven forces when a tensioned cable is pulling on the connector sideways. That way i made my port unusable over a year or so and ordered a spare part. Somehow i damaged the speakers on my 11 in the process. Also the rounded edges stick in more smoothly and are easier to get on the first try. Not gonna look back to stupid lightning.
@@ricochet4674 Lightning is a more robust connector than USB-C. The only problem with it was the slow transfer and charge speeds. As far as Magsafe goes...you should try it. It's super convenient to just drop your phone on a charge pad and the magnets lock the alignment for maximum efficiency automatically. I had a Qi charger before that I never used because it was so finicky to align my iPhone 11 and get it to charge. With Magsafe it sucks itself into position and you get the best possible charge rate automatically. Pretty awesome.
Been using my 8 plus since 2018 and I’m utterly in love with it ever since
After 5 years with my Xs I also decided to go all in on the 15 pro, especially for the cameras. It will arrive today and after watching your video I am SURE I am gonna enjoy the upgrade! Thanks for sharing!
Interesting to see a review from someone jumping multiple generations. Awesome ! Thanks
I went from 11 to 15 pro! Dang that's an awesome upgrade but at the same my respect to iPhone 11! The phone is a beast in itself.. it has very less going against it honestly! I'm glad I switched because it has started to give up on battery speaker and etc etc! 11 is going to be my favourite for a very long time.
Never expected a phone review from you
Again, the quality and production is so good, overtime is getting better and better.
Keep it going man!
The best phone review I have seen to date. Actual use is what matters.What the specs mean in real life is what reviews should be about.
i upgraded from iphoneX to 15 pro max, which apart from battery life drain was still running adequately for mostly everything. Would have waited myself for 16 pro but thought to upgrade now as there have been a fair amount of upgrades throughout the iterations since the x and also for snapping some better quality pics.
You're good at reviewing phones, you should do it more often.
Agreed 🎉
bro his next phone upgrade could possibly be in 2030 😂😂
I don't think he will, and I hope he won't. He always pulls out great content, including this video, but I really wouldn't like this channel to become a generic tech thing. And again, I don't think Ali wants this either.

@@milo9803 Optimum's real name
Same here. I’ve upgraded from the 11 to 15 Pro last week. This has not been a dramatic change in my user experience but it will be software support guaranteed for the next 5 years.
I don't understand people upgrading their phone so often. I'm still using a phone from 2012 and still working excellent
Because phones have become a fashion statement in the eyes of the brain-dead consumer-addicted public.
Some people just have a lot of disposable income, it is what it is
Which phone?
Two reasons: Updates and Battery. If you use a phone from 2012 you have not been getting updates on that phone for years which doesn't matter too much when it comes to new features but I wouldn't like to have a phone without up to date security updates. Obviously also depends on what you have on your phone like is there important data on it or not if not that makes updates a lot less of an issue. And now the big reason called battery. I own a galaxy S21 and have owned that phone for a little over 3 years at this point. It still works fine but I definitely can tell the battery has degraded over time and when I know the battery will just keep getting worse and there is also a limited amount of time left the phone will get updates I rather upgrade to a new device and sell my old one rather than replace the battery (which also gets rid of the water resistance the phone has) and then own a phone that doesn't get updates in the future. Probably going to switch to a new phone in the next few months. I am looking at the Nothing phone 2a since I don't really need a flagship.
they probably don’t understand why people don’t update often as well. it is what it is and let people live their life without being a “pick me” person.
I like reviews from someone who hasn't upgraded in a while because thats just what probably most people upgrading to that phone are, i went from the iphone 7 plus to the 15 pro and the diferences felt massive and it felt so worth it, im keeping this phone for a long while
I think you will love type-c later. I have like 99% of my devices on type-c now, I've even converted some old battery powered tools to a type-c. Having one single cable type fit them all is so nice!
Went from the XS Max to 15 Pro Max and its a huge upgrade, excellent so far.
I did the same recently, but just went with the 15 Plus since I don’t do camera stuff all that often. Even with that though, this plus still has a wide shot camera. The Pro is a total camera flex and overspec for most people I think
Jumped from the 11 as well to the 15 (non pro). It was worth it in my opinion. its all the minor things combined together that made it worth the upgrade. Plus the fact that there is more longevity with updates and what not
Can I have your 11?
@@gtaverse6333 no :)
You likely won't miss it since the 11 also didn't have it but it is still crazy to me that the non pro Iphones that still cost close to a grand don't have 120hz screens. I don't think you can find an Android phone over $400 that doesn't have 120hz (and many even at $300 have 120hz) and it really makes a difference once you experience it like he said in the video.
It is nice to see that you are also following the lowdown. Their automotive videography is just on another level.
Gonna keep my 13 mini for another year or 2. I love the size of this phone and there’s nothing I feel that I’m really missing out on. The photos and videos from my 13 mini still look really good to my eye and battery life usually is enough to get me through the day. I’m sure the 15’s are really cool and all but it’s so hard to give up the mini size .
I just switched from my 13 mini to the 15 pro and it honestly feels like a massive upgrade. I loved the 13 mini in my pocket but the usability for me was not good. I totally get that you like the size of the mini but honestly you only really notice that the 15 is bigger when you are using it.
@@camwoo On the same fence. I only got to try the regular 15(don't have Apple Store in my country). I was light and nice. What about the Pro. Does it feel as ergonomic?
@@camwoo I had a 15 pro for a week or so and ended up sending it back . I didn’t use it long enough to form any real conclusions but from the time I had it , it was certainly nice but I just didn’t see any “major” differences that would warrant me spending lots of money to upgrade.
@@camwoo "but honestly you only really notice that the 15 is bigger when you are using it."... erm... isn't that the whole point? The smaller screen is supposed to be easier to hold and use.
@@camwoohow is the performance compared to the 13 mini? And the battery? I am on the same situation
so happy to see you made this video
Just got a 15 and upgrading from 11
really nice to see your opinion on it
I also upgraded to the 15 pro 256gb this year, but I upgraded from the S20. Great video and more videos about different tech such as phones would be great!
it's really exciting to watch Optimum experiment with different type of videos and start moving away from ONLY PC hardware, to general Technology Reviews. kind of like "the next MKBHD" sort of feel.
I mean just like with the Mac Pro review, getting to that level where he can just casually reach out to Apple and big companies like that.
Keep leading the pack Ali!
Yeah definitely, the production value is there and now just a bit more content variation and he'll be at that point.
Man I am incredibly excited to see your content next year, I feel like you're about to ball out. Thanks for the great reviews and entertainment!
Did the same. Been rocking an iPhone 12 for years but had to go with the 15 Pro to get those RAW photos and LOG video. Plus the natural titanium is so nice.
I honestly enjoyed this video way more than I thought I would, it’s cool to see you switch it up a little💪🏻
I love that you watch the same camera/photo&video TH-camrs that we all watch (like Schiffer in that quick reference) and as a car guy myself watching those car montages too is very relatable.
Love the direction that the channel is taking, as a person who who seemingly has many of the same hobbies as you, as I'm sure a very good portion of your audience shares too, based on the comments. IF you've thought about introducing more of your other hobbies (other tech, cars, gym etc.) Into the channel, I'm sure it'll be well received by most of us. In the end we're here for the way you make videos.
You've become by far the coolest tech channel on TH-cam, and I mean like while others have more friendly content for newcomers orhave scripted jokes etc., you have that COOL factor man.
Long time fan, keep up the great work.
Greetings from Mexico, cheers.
Bro I wish I would have found you channel earlier. Ive been watching your videos and I want to thank you so much for taking such good quality yt vids. love your channel man!
I've recently switched to the 15 after my 12 pro max's back glass cracked, the front screen already had some scratches so getting it fixed from apple would've been around 1/3 of the price of just getting a new one. The difference is definitely noticeable.
Went from 11 to S23, solid upgrade, saved more than a pretty penny by switching to base model that actually has a nice display, versatile cameras and on- par performance
i'm on the 11 and i feel like it is probably the most anyone will need nowadays (other than camera upgrades)
my next upgrade would be the 13 pro max/14 pro max for that high refresh screen
I upgraded from an iphone X to a 15 pro max. I don't actually hate the size increase. I think the 15 is absolutely awesome. Congrats on the upgrade
I went from the 6S+ to the 13 Pro at the end of 2021, to say it was a big upgrade was an understatement. I'm probably not upgrading again until at least 2026 or 2027
Love my iphone 11 pro max. I didn’t even want to upgrade nor can I afford it, but going on 4 years and the battery starts to drain too much. Not an issue last year… Being 37 I now only care about battery and camera as well as storage capacity lol.
Why not buy a powerbank
Just let a new battery be installed by someone trusted... The good old excuse to buy a new phone because of battery 😂 Manufacturers really know how to trick us. The 11 pro max should also be a good bit better than the 11 and if you don't need it for work I don't really see a reason to upgrade yet.
I went from Pixel 6a to 8 Pro and was blown away by the differences. Now that I have a flagship top of the line triple camera phone and Google has promised 7 years of support, I really want to make this one last.
Same, but I went with Graphene Os on my Pixel 8 pro for extra control over my security and privacy vs normal android.
Iphone is better too
@@iluvkath07 I prefer Android
@@iluvkath07 There is no such thing as something being better than something. These are all subjective opinions. The only thing that can be better is the spec sheet of latest phones compared to that of previous years (note I mentioned only spec sheet as all other aspects are also subjective)
The moment you put that phone up right and let it stand on the desk, my heart skipped a beat. Awesome video. Love the colors, love your review. Instant sub. Thanks and would love to see more. Until then let me explore your channel.
The biggest difference i felt was the 120hz refresh rate, it didn't feel that different but now i can see a big difference between it against other lowerend iphones.
Good you got to experience something android has had for half a decade now
@@goochipoochie I had a android before? 120 hz isn’t a big deal and when people are like in 60 hz 2024 is crazy that’s why they made the pro if u cared about specs and camera why would you get the base? Get the pro
@@serpentinegaming531 The thing is apple is just being greedy not putting 120hz on the base models that still cost close to a grand. Meanwhile on the Android side basically any phone over $300 has a 120hz AMOLED screen. It wouldn't cost them much to add 120hz screens to the base model iPhones but they want to create an incentive for people to spend more on the Pro phones. Big reason I stay away from Apple when they blatantly rip people off same with USB 2.0 on the base models. Most people won't care about those things especially if they always had iPhones in the past they don't know what they are missing when it comes to 120hz or the faster USB 3.0 transfer speeds but I can't support that stuff.
@@dayko. dude I didn’t see a difference between 60 and 120 Until I had a 120hz one and most androids have terrible animations that make it mostly terrible and unused
upgraded from a used x to 15 pro a bit ago, its so damn nice to finally have a new phone again. the amount of features added from the 11 to 15 have been really noticeable
The quality of your videos is unmatched bro, keep up the good work.
Moved from iPhone 11 to iPhone 15 Pro last week and did a ton of research but didn't find this video earlier. However, this review is indeed perfect, exactly what i feel and would have said if i had made this video :D
everytmie this dude uploads ik im getting a quality video
This guy is my idol. When I die I want my family to play one of most viewed videos of his in my funeral. Thanks
I've been debating making the switch but all the reviews I've seen are so devoid of actual use case for "prosumer" type people. This review however was PERFECT. Another banger from Optimum, and another reason why I love this channel. Thank you so much for making not only cinematic grade review videos but ones that contain the ACTUAL MEAT and not just fluff for fluff's sake :)
EDIT: After watching this video I will go purchase a iPhone 15 Pro Max today!
The attention to detail in making the video 9:41 long is insane
Dudeee at 7:59 I felt scared that it would fall. You have the ultimate self-confidence that you wouldn't drop it in the middle of a shoot! Hats off to you 😅
always great to see a video from you. getting close to 1m subs! congrats man. i still remember being here sub 30k...... insane to see how youve become one of the highest quality channels on the platform.
Love how you pointed out that the higher refresh rate allows you to read better while doom scrolling. That is something other channels fail to state other than “it’s 2023 every phone has it why don’t this one does”
The quality and production of your videos is insanely well done. I don't even know how it's possible for a singular person be able to create videos that look better than an Apple official promo video.
The most professional iPhone 15 Pro review out there, incredible job!!!
Never expected an iPhone review from you haha
Oh gosh, an optimum video about the 15 Pro?? I’m in for a treat
I have the iPhone 11pro. I was planning on updating this year but it only seemed like apple just added a ubc port. Hopefully next year will be better
Just like the phone the quality of the content you have been producing has also been amazing and its great to see you grow!
I usually upgrade every 2 years bc of contracts with carriers and deals but I've decided to not upgrade from my 13 this year. There hasn't been enough of a reason to upgrade for me and my 13 is everything I could ask for in smartphone + more, 2 years later. I'll probably upgrade next year if there's a big enough jump (Apple please 90Hz for base iPhone 16) but still rocking my beautiful Product Red iPhone 13 for now
I went from an S22 Ultra to a 15 Pro Max. I have some issues with iOS but this phone feels and functions very nicely. Worth the money after selling my old phone but I do not plan to upgrade for quite a while.
Ali's PC : 💪🐶

The fact that your videos just finish the moment you stop delivering your summary is elite
One of the main reasons why USB-C is better besides being able to transmit more data and power is the way it connects to the port, the shape of it allows for a more sturdy connection and that the pins are on the inside, I have damaged multiple lightning cables due to it's wiggle room it leaves in the port.
Perfect timing… which is so odd bc I’m so used to your SFFPC vids haha. I’m rocking a XR and was planning on treating myself to the 15 pro max for Christmas this year. Thanks for the great review!
I switched to android this year after so many years of being on apple and its been fun. There is really no better experience because they are both so good but the apple ecosystem is very dependent on the phone that take a load of adjusting. Either way nothing is better than the other. They have gotten so good and still both platforms have their flaws and issues. Competition is real good. Gonna get the s24 next year and compare im waiting for the iPhone 18 there’s some cool shit coming !
This. I vastly prefer Android but that doesn't mean it's better. Both Android and iOS are excellent these days. It just depends on your preferences, really.
Long time iPhone user to Samsung here. Left apple at the 14 pro, which was a disaster or a $1,300 device. The galaxy s23 base model feels vastly superior in almost every aspect. And it's $500 less! I do prefer the apple UI but everything about Galaxy makes me wonder why the hell I put up with Apples crap for so long. The loyalist elitist hype really is strong with apple users.
@@christianrobloxserver7282 You have to hand it to Apple. They understood the importance of building a brand and image and how that affects people's loyalty.
Some of the studies talking about how Apple and Android are viewed by middle and high schoolers are pretty crazy. Like to the point some kids are bullied because they have Android phones.
I upgraded from iPhone 8 to iPhone 12 yesterday loving Face ID
I'm still using the iPhone X, the first iPhone with an OLED display. Instead of upgrading to the iPhone 15 pro, I bought an RTX4090, which gets much more use than my phone.
The screen on my iPhone X has faded so much, that I noticed it when comparing my X to the 15 Pro side-by-side, it's a night and day difference.
Previous generations did have pro res, just not log. And it couldn’t do pro res at 4K 60, but now we can with an external drive.
I upgraded two days ago from an iPhone XR to an iPhone 15 Pro and the difference is massive. The 120Hz screen is amazing and it's the first time I have more than 1 rear camera.
Also, the action button is amazing too, as I set it to trigger a Shortcut that does different things depending on the orientation of my device. If I hold it like when I do to take pictures and press the action button it opens the camera App. If I hold it on the other direction it activates Do not disturb, which is nice when I'm trying to watch a video but start getting tons of notifications. If I press it with the phone held upright it turns the flashlight on. If I press it in any other direction it toggles Silent mode, just like the old physical switch
Quick correction. The 12 Pro didn't have 120Hz Pro Motion as you mentioned at 06:19. It was the 13 Pro that first introduced a 120Hz screen. And honestly if you'd compared the 15 Pro to the 13 Pro, you'd be hard pressed to notice the (minor) upgrades in everyday use.
But 15 will last 2 years more than the 13.
I upgraded to the 15 Pro from a SE 2 and the differences are probably the biggest you can get from 2 supported devices. It’s so much better of an experience
i swear i would watch your high quality content even if u are just eating a bowl of cereal in the video
That would be a funny April Fools video, haha
Same upgrade. Other than the obvious upgrades the best for me is the comfort holding it. The 11 is slightly wider and with a cover it was sometimes challenging for single hand use. 11 is a great phone. The 15 pro is better!
interesting to see apple content from you
I'm shocked much less by Apple but that he was using a 60Hz LCD on a phone this whole time lol while making me feel not so good for using a 360Hz LCD monitor...
I'm looking to upgrade from my iPhone 11 to the 15 Pro when the 16 comes out. Your video is very helpful since it's relatable. Subscribed!
3 to 4 years is definitely perfect time to upgrade where you see significant upgrade features
well... my 6s is still going strong 🤣
@@zawiszaczarny1749 I can’t believe you, i had 6s and it wasn’t strong in 2021
I went from an iPhone 8 to an iPhone 14 Pro Max. It was like getting hit by a truck with upgrades. Felt so good
I've always had the feeling you were an android guy
Too concerned with aesthetics I always figured the opposite. All about clean lines, minimalism and such.
This review is top notch. The quality of video, the info, the opinions your giving.. Etc
You really should think about doing more phone reviews
Why an Iphone? Genuinely curious
Watch the video?
@@Merrychristmas567the video said nothing about why he chose iphone over an Android device
If you're a content creator, investing on an iphone is a game changer. You can just shoot on the go whenever you need to and make it look good for upload. He is also using macbook pro so, when travelling, it's the best pair.
@@alrizo1115 I shoot on my s22 U in dng just the same, and can upload it to my laptop just the same. This isn't unique to an iphone or apple in the slightest
@@EmperorFeatherFlight bruh, iphone experience is different. If you want consistency in every shot and ease of connection in a mac ecosystem, why not go iphone? When it comes to video recording, i'll choose iphone over s22. S23 is a little closer vs iphone 15 pro max
Didn't know you were a fellow FX3 enjoyer 😎
of course 😎
