How is your comment older than the video lmao
S24u its better. But in social media, iphone have superior quality. Samsung needs to fix this problem 😢
I've been eyeing this phone case for a while now, but I've been hesitant. But now that you've recommended it, I feel like I don't need to hesitate anymore.
Got the 15 PM as my first PM. I think this is good for at least 5 years, especially with the USBC.
Same
Bro it’s almost 7 months…. Crazy how the 16 is about 4-5 months away😢
Me too, when i watched the thumbnails Time Flies So Fast 😩
This was the longest iPhone run… I’m ready for the next phone
16 plus i really look up to that the battery life would be huggeee
Crazy how this comment was just TWO DAYS ago
@@Cobalt167Apple are shrinking the 16 Plus battery size, which along with again the 60hz display is pretty low.
Based on leaks that happened a few months ago, the next iPhone worth upgrading to will likely be when they can put Face ID fully under the display, so not at least until 2027-2028
Hey, what do you mean by under the display ? Just curious 😊
@@freyalibby i tyink its when theres no cutout
I have the 15 PM, I’ll update when the 20 comes out 😂 Apple is a money grab for no real upgrades
Yep same here 😂
3 year cycle is the sweet spot these days imo. Although 5 years is totally reasonable too.
You’ll be good till the 21
@@emilsecker7881nah I’m waiting for the 69 💀
@@sebzstaagreed, I went from the 12PM to the 15PM!
Yeah the stabilization of the 5x camera really is legendary, holy cow it’s good.
For the iPhone 16 Pro Max, I hope for an even larger camera sensors across the board, at least for all three rear cameras. The main is already huge but you can never have too much light intake; especially for video where the noise reduction processing is much harder to accomplish. But especially the ultra wide and telephoto need larger sensors. I feel like, if there are any limitations to the 15 Pro Max camera system, it would be that 1) the telephoto could almost always have done well with more light intake for indoor shots, and 2) the ultra wide could use more pixels (48 MP anyone?)
I have the same Ostand case. It jolds my Iphone 15 perfectly and stands up securely.
The quality of torras phone cases has made me a loyal customer!
The best thing I like about like about the 15 pro over anything in the past is the speaker sound quality…
Mostly (non-enthusiast) people care about camera and speakers.
For me, the camera quality, storage, and battery life is the priority. They need a substantial upgrade to the ultra wide lens. I end up deleting too many of them due to poor quality. I am a frequent traveler and those memories are important!
@@peterotremba8980 as an iphone fan, i still agree. By the way, 16 pro series are getting 48mp upgraded ultra wide 👁️
It's crazy, it sounds better than the 2023 mpb 13"
@@cristibaluta no no, it can’t. iphone has a powerful speaker on the bottom right and another one on the earpiece. But 13” macbook pro has 4 speakers which are loud and are better than ipad pro speakers, which are far better than iphones.
And if you go for 14”/16” once, the 6 speaker system is a banger…!
just upgraded to a 15 pro max from a 12 pro max last week. no complaints so far but the upgrades that really felt different for me are the cameras and promotion (and smoother gameplays especially in games like honkai star rail) other than that they're pretty similar.
Any issues with charging?
@@quintonturpin925 why would there be? i use the 20w apple charger with 80% charge limit turned on
how long does your battery last?
I love that phone case, it seems the design is sleek and it has a phone stand without the bulky feeling.
I've had many other cases where the kickstand failed due to design flaws, but Torras seems to be doing great in that aspect.
Great video. What is the link to your ssd?
I'm so happy to see that you received sponsorship from Torras. It's my favorite phone case brand.
I haven't used a case like this before. The spinning design looks very practical.
I wish they add Stage Manager to the iphone when connecting through usbc to a monitor
Keep bringing high quality review and good products!
Glad I decided to wait my 14 pro max still a beast I’m hoping they actually have a ultra iPhone if it’s nothing major I’ll just get the 15 pro max and save a few dollars and since iPhones age so well that phone should do me some good
Switch to USB-C has been a pain for us as one would need to have all family iPhones upgraded … and we tend to get one new iphone and then hand down iPhones through the family, so it will take us few years to transition, and sharing charging cables or using cables in the car means we need two different ones and swap around
Or… OR… you just have your own chargers…
Buy cables that have both lightning and USBc split at the end
I got a Torras iPhone case, and it has a magnet to charge it using MagSafe, which is really convenient.
What case is that?
I’m just excited to see how iOS 18 will be
Love the iPhone 15 Pro Max; great phone. Love the action button, tetraprism lens and light, titanium casing. Back to Pro Max because of the lighter weight and much lighter feel.
Best phone ever I phone 15 pro max
@@faresnimer69u purchased late? Even the 16 is coming? Im planning to get 15pm
@@noxtanagnes Did you got it? im also planning to get the 15pm but also considering waiting for the 16
@@niek_9564 i got it
It would have been better if we can transfer data between Mac and iPhone at these speeds.
With MacBook we only get USB 2.0 speeds
I expect the new thermal design on the 16 line will be the legendary feature!
what case are you suing? It does not look like one of toarras cases?
Yes, Torras 360 Stand Cases
I have the same iPhone case, and it's lightweight. The magnetic design is also very convenient to use. Most importantly, it has saved my phone from several drops.
Watching on my iPhone 12 Pro Max, and I wasn't planning on getting a new iPhone, but this phone case has me considering getting a new one.
Feels like yesterday that iPhone 15series was out!
Needed to hear this 😮. Thank you 🙏!!
I'm waiting for 16, but should get a torras case for my 13pm now.
If the capture button hadn’t existed on smart phones a decade ago and dumb phones even before that, it would definitely be a game changer. Nice of them to bring it back tho. Still on the fence between upgrading now or just waiting

Great review & Nice phone case! Always go with Torras!
Can I use an android USB c cable to charge the 15 series or does the cable have to be apple mfi certified?
Experiment and see what happens.
Yes you can use the Android usbc. No more worrying about mfi 😊
@@lormor460 thank you
Should I trade in to 15 Pro Max or wait for 16 Pro Max? And which pro model should I choose next time? Currently unhappy with my 14 Pro with 89% battery health after a year with buggy experience with stuttering.
Omg, I have to deal with problems with camera almost every time I use it. I’ve had many android phones over the years and the iPhone 15 pro max is by a clear mile the buggiest phone I have ever experienced and worst of all, the only bug that was ever fixed is the update for the over heating problem!
Wait for the 16 pro max, besides, it’s now that far away
Wait for the 16 Pro Max. I love my 15 Pro Max because the battery life is better than the 13 Pro Max that I got on release, but it’s given me the most issues mainly with the camera. The selfie camera doesn’t produce the best photos sometimes and the telephoto camera will sometimes have weird artifacting in my experience.
@@sorrai I legit am using a 13pro max right now and after reading this, I just wait for the 16- IF there's any real significant changes. So far my 13pm is still working just fine. I guess the 15 has some issues, going by what I've read. Hopefully the issues are worked out by the 16.
Don’t have any problem on my 14 pro.
@@peterotremba8980 Thank you!
I hope you’re right about the 16 and Apple is gonna fix most issues because this year the main focus is iOS 18, so maybe Apple will work on that good enough to give us a bug-free iOS like iOS 15. Also, batteries are gonna get bigger and the 16 Pros are gonna have more power efficient n3e A18 Pro chip compared to the n3b A17 Pro chip on the 15 Pros, and a more power efficient MLA OLED screen.
Now I'm eyeing on that phone case.
i got the 14plus when it was new, thinking ill upgrade after 10 years. Opinions?
I went from a 6S+ which they no longer support. So it was a big upgrade. Worth the outrageous cost (price of a laptop)? Not when I'm being blown out of the water two years later. Nothing but churn and AAPL greed. However compared to camera equipment prices and depreciation it's not a lot of money.
@@unclefart5527 Great! so how long did you make the 6s+ last? and what about battery replacement, is it worth it when its degraded enough?
Give it another 15
I will get that ostand ip case for my 15 pro max.
15 pro max battery doesn’t last as my 13 pro max 🤧. Its crazy to upgrade and get lesser battery 😑😑
You’re definitely running too many things on your phone
My iPhone 15 Pro Max paired with the Torras Ostand phone case can easily support me for at least 3 years.
I need that phone case.
I have the 15 Pro Max, I'll probably wait at least 3-4 years to upgrade. It's been a great phone, other than the overheating issues it has sometimes. It doesn't disable my phone, but it prevents it from charging until it cools down. It's a normal thing, because my friends 15 Pro (non Max) does the same thing.
Does it still overheat? That’s the only thing stopping me from getting it
Nah. Mine was overheating when it first dropped. Not anymore. But if you still don’t want it, I would wait for 16 pro max cause that’s only a few months away
iPhone 16 Pro i'm ver optimistic about, but I have big expectations. If there is a way that I can reach 10,000 with the geekbench 6 multicore score , as android is threatening to reach abysmally quickly, on top of having that graphene chamber, there will be significant reaons for me to trade in. The iPhone 15 Pro i only bought because "it has the USB C port", and partially MetalFX.
Who cares if the Geekbench score is higher, there’s no difference in real world use. Many are still fine with their iPhone XR
I don't like camera for video mode 15 pro max... pan it left to right ✅️ its very fps dropped so badly
Happy with my ip15pm ❤❤loves its 5x telephoto good for protraits 🔥🔥🔥
i still dont love the lens flare in my shots at night
It's a legendary feature 😂
I like this video. 15 promax good but 15 pro is different, battery life much worse, and too many bugs hit me on 15 pro because in my case the bug laden iOS 17,5 was already pre installed.
I would not say AI could improve the action button as AI are not smart. The action button should be programable by recording some user actions and then repeating them.
I have switched from iPhone 11 to iPhone 15 Pro Max, but what remains the same is that I'm still using a Torras phone case.
extremely well optimized battery and phone alwyse efficient doesnt really get hot like s24 series so i ended up keeping 15 pro max
Bro what you talking about. It's always the iPhones that dim their screens quicker than Samsung due to lack of proper vape chamber cooling.
@@asianstud7 idk what you talking about but i had 2 s24 plus snapdragon version here in usa and both alwyse runs hot when i open 2 apps where iphone 15 pro max never gave me any heating issue and battery is insanely good too
USB- C and all the things Apple openly allowed users to do was very impressive. As someone who wishes to shoot in the wider field of view, I am excited that they are finally improving this portion of the camera. It is sadly the only reason I did not upgrade. But now I will.
Giving Apple credit for doing what everyone else has been doing for years is crazy 😂
Upgrade and finally have what android users have had for many many years....Maybe Iphone16 will let users customize their apps that will be a huge hit since Android has let you do that for damn near 10 years.
Neat review & iPhone case.
Realistically just keeping a long period of time save for USB-C and lock switch
I need help guys.
Right now I have iPhone 11 Pro 512GB.
I have a trade option for a promotional store. 797$ for my phone.
Should I get the iPhone 15 Pro Max 512 and add an amount of money or wait ?
I can wait my phone is amazing and bought it back when it came out but I’m afraid the promotional store trade will downgrade 😢
Please ❤️
Best regards
That’s a good price for your old phone. I’d say do what’s affordable . I just traded my iPhone 13 in and got 1k. Then bought the 15 max for 1200
Do you think wait until iphone 16 pro max or buy iphone 15 pro max?
Same, i can’t decide if i want 15 pro max right now or wait for 16
Once I accidentally dropped my phone from the balcony, but thanks to the Torras case, it survived without a scratch!
I just need a better screen without PWM flickering that won't kill my eyes.
Since I got the 14 Pro Max, I am not really into upgrading every year. What’s the point and besides I have so much storage on my phone that I’m not willing to pay more and get a new phone with that same amount of storage because it’s so expensive so I’m good.
What colour
@@lime-animates-2763 space black
Which century will you start adding chapters ?
I've never owned an iPhone and I've been considering purchasing one...I think I should have the best iphone and that is the Pro Max
I own an Ostand case. Excellent case, amazing quality, I have been a customer of this brand for as long as I own a smartphone.
I’m hearing that the 15 pro max has charging issues because of the USB c port. Is this true and is it still ongoing?
I had to upgrade my phone since it was getting really old and I got this one
Nice video
Having a physical shutter button is certainly not a mimic 😂
lol you’ve always figured something out 😂
we're paying for a $1200 yearly subscription for a little update 💀if we do decide to upgrade...
The decision to upgrade every year isn’t a very clever one nowadays, though. These phones only see real improvements if compared to 2 or 3 generations behind.
You just figured it out? I buy a new iPhone every 4 years
I’m not knocking this phone. I have the iPhone 14+ but I don’t think I’m gonna like that new charging port mainly because I have his little plugs that I put in to the charging port that keeps lint and dirt out of it. Those won’t fit in that one besides don’t they have wireless charging anyway I don’t understand why the 15 has a charging port, I would just use the wireless charging
I have an IPhone 13 Pro. I love the cameras, but the keyboard makes me crazy. I still have a Samsung Note 20 and I still like it better overall. So, I take photos and video with the Iphone (sharing is great on Iphone) and the Samsung for pretty much everything else.i do. So, best of both worlds and will continue doing this for as long as I need a second phone specifically for business.
It’s no point of upgrading every year a phone come out too fast for me. I used to get a phone every year, but not no more.
I have a 13 mini and don’t care about getting a newer iPhone. This one already does everything I need it to do and these things are almost always the same every year anyways with only small changes. Only the tech nerds say you need to upgrade immediately.
Lol just say you're broke 13 mini too small 🤣
Try 13 pro you will thank me later
Yeah, new iPhones are for the wealthy and wasteful. And big iPhones are for people with poor eyesight. 😂
To be honest I have the IPhone 15 I always get the base model. I am always disappointed Apply only give this model some castaways from the Pro and Max a couple of years later. Last year it was the Dynamic Island. I find that totally boring don’t even use it. It would great to get some really good updates like Titanium.
Wishful thinking!
I like that phone case. Do they have it for Samsung?
Yes, it supports certain Samsung models.
Legen... wait for it... dary
Every year right lol. It’s so tiring 😂
I've never enjoyed a case more than Torras Ostand Ip case.
i used to not to like iphone, but this time they're doing it right. if iphone is now capable of running RE: village and RE: 4 remake (even if it's not full quality) but still that's a powerful one, none of android can run that. the optimization of OS also amazed me, as a user of android for 12yrs what i noticed is in iphone you don't need to tweak too much, in android you need to tweak much which is hassle.
iphone retain battery super efficient over s24 ultra i have both so i know what im talking about
and now the new Mac I got uses MagSafe so the usb c isn't all that. I use a 14 pro btw
USB C is the de facto universal standard for all modern gadgets and devices. Don't lie to yourself. Apple is just greedy recycling lighting, so they can continue selling subpar and outdated lightning accessories to people like you. My MBP also comes with MagSafe but I never use it, I just use a ugreen 300W charger and a 150w USB C cables to charge everything from my MBP16, iPhone, airpods, iPad, switch and whatever else life throws at me. Don't kid yourself, lightning is terrible, I'm just glad apple finally switched over (even if they were forced to) it's so comforting knowing I can use a single universal cable to charge all my devices
@@MonsieurGuy i dont really care that much man
@@princessjenibell4614 haha I getchu
In my opinion 14 pro max is more premium and if you have one there's almost no point to upgrade to 15 pro max. Enjoy your phone sister.
That’s the thing… most people really don’t care. Especially when everything is functionally the same.
I carry 3 iPhones all times, a 5 year old XS Max, a 13 Pro Max and a 15 Pro Max and oh boy, that XS Max Oled display is the best … I wish my 15 Pro Max was as nice
You sir Lying
@@nivm101 I put all three phones side by side on a dark room with max brightness and XS max screen wins
This whole discussion was about the "legendary features" of the iPhone 15 pro max, with nary a negative comment in sight? Why the heck did you give this video the title, "Really, Apple?!" and poster image saying "Apple, c'mon."
Oh, right. Clickbait.
But this was much worse clickbait than usual for you. At least normally, the clickbait title actually has some context to what's in the video. This time it was totally not there. I guess saying, "It's still great!" or "the 3 still-killer features" wouldn't have gotten as many eyeballs.
Between stuff like this and the ongoing issues with graph accuracy, I think I'm done with you guys. Bye-bye.
Your number 3 is why I have migrated from Apple being my main.
Using 15 pro max for 4 months now and decided to come back to android. Reasons for that are mainly related to user experience. I’m not in eco system though. I prefer system navigation and keyboard experience on android. Android device is more compatible with different 3rd party devices as headphones, tvs, windows pc, etc. So tried this with apple but at the end will not continue…
I went with the 15PM after 8 years on android but experienced the opposite. I found it so much better and more reliable. The keyboard took a while to get used to but now I come to appreciate it more and found that the suggestions are great, so is multilingual typing. The apps work better, never crash out of the blue and let me tell you, I was using the S22 ultra before switching so it’s not like I’m comparing the 15 Pro max with an A series phone.
The cameras are simply incredible too. This phone dragged me hard into their ecosystem 😂
Just don’t see that it’s enough to upgrade every year. We’ve reach a climax of hardware minus subtle changes in the camera. For Apple it’s going to be about its software. A.I. will be the key to their success but they are a bit behind already since the S24 already has several features. Rumor is Apple is relying on Google for help in their software to roll out to capable iPhones. If you have a 15 Pro Max, you’re good for 2 more years.
I switched to the z fold 5 after being a lifetime ios user and i couldn't be happier. Best phone ive ever owned by far
Hey I need help here! What makes u happier while using the z flip? Cuz I'm thinking of getting an Iphone but I'm kinda worried that I might hate it
@exoinvadedmymind1006 I have the z fold not z flip. It's kinda hard to right everything (cause samsung does a lot better imo) but samsung phones just have more functionality and are more useful while iphones are just simple. It will take sometime getting used to all the things you can do so do your research. If you're worried about not having imessage there is an app called blue bubbles which allows you to do. You can find many tutorials on the install and it's pretty straight forward, only thing required is a Mac computer. It has been my main messaging app since I switched and it works amazing. When I mentioned earlier about doing your research, it's always good to restart your phone every 3-7 days (just the nature of the os). If you're tech savy you will 100% stick with android if you did try it. My phone literally opens into a tablet, no phone competes with it. One last thing I wish I knew before I switched was that don't but a samsung phone right of the bat, they have great deals around the holidays
I still have the airpods max and pro 2 with lightning so im not gonna be lightning free until maybe 2025 with APP3 and Max 2. 😅
I don’t care I must get the 16!! I am a tech freak and I got 15 last September.
The S24 with the snapdragon gen 3 looks really nice
I like how the iPhone and s24 have a different look, it gives the consumer different options
Thinking what's left to make innovation in 16 series
Everything is just perfect
More pixels in the ultra wide and telephoto cameras! 12 MP is not enough imo.
@@Epicgamer_Mac true i guess
I feel the same way about my 12 Pro Max. The iPhone 15 PM is just version 4 of iPhone 12PM design. With some minor improvements. I just had the Apple Store replace the old battery and my phone is working perfectly.
@@dazauto107 exactly not everyone is a gamer, creator, or artist. and this android world is totally versatile which is not at all useful
I’ll wait for the 16 I haven’t had a new iPhone in 5 years lol
"legendary features" much wow
The regular 14 speaker sounds better than 15 and pro/pro max, I will only consider upgrading if the speaker sounds better.
Watching on my iphone 5S
I will be getting iphone 17 my last iohone was the 12 lol
I cant say goodbye to the Black 14 Pro Max :) I like that extra weight and it is a bit thicker. My wife has the 15 Pro Max and it is great but a bit too light and thin for me. I also still have my back up phone my S21 Ultra (which is still a bad ass phone) even in 2024!
I still rate my iPhone 15 Pro Max telephoto behind my old Galaxy s21 Ultra for distant photos: my daughter on stage at her school chorus concert; the fox or owl in the woods behind our house; the eclipse; the Moon. I know the argument about how the Galaxy processes Moon photos. But just pointing and clicking on my iPhone usually gets an out-of-focus blob rather than a sharp shot, never mind the details. I wish Apple would give the 5X a 48mp sensor. Then it would match the current Galaxies!
Agree, Apple need 48-50 mp sensor on zoom module.
They need to prioritize the ultra wide, the quality isn’t good enough
naaa
The iPhone also needs a better selfie camera. Unfortunately, neither upgrades are expected until the iPhone 17.
The biggest iPhone 16 news is a new shutter button😂 wow
So minor
Year, another boring upgrade from Apple. Though that 5x camera does look interesting if you are into photography.
