iPhone 15 Buyers: Apple Thinks You're Stupid!

- Apple is ripping you off on the new iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Pro by charging you over $800 for a phone with a 60hz refresh rate on the display, last years processor, and decade old charging technology with USB 2.0 - the same technology as lightning chargers, but with a USB-C connector.

Yeah my sister has the 13 in pink, she told me she is buying the 15 because its pink. My sister doesnt care about 60hz vs 120hz or slower charging speeds or anything, she cares about the color.
I have a friend that is upgrading to the 15 Pro from a 12 because of the design and not the phone itself.
Thats 80% of Apple users and Apple knows it.
Yep, I mentioned the iPhone 12 came in purple, to my partner. She upgraded her 6 to a 12. She hates my Android phones!
Lol. Good point. Many buy them for the aesthetics. Not for what they're capable of. Most girls who buy them don't even know how to use them, especially when they're coming from android.
@@sequoia689I mean, yeah....apple has become a fashion brand....why do you think people with broken iphone6 shit on S23U users for? Lol
I take everything into consideration as an apple fan from design to performance and other important changes.
@@sequoia689 Wow, careful there with the 'most girls...' comment.
Most standard iPhone users just don’t care about specs. It has an Apple logo, FaceTime and iMessage all they care about
Don’t forget the colors
I hate when people make the argument of “well most people don’t notice or care about the refresh rate, so why should they stop making phones with 60Hz?” To me, it’s Apple taking advantage of their customers and cheaping out on the base model iPhones, not giving them basic features that every other flagship phone has, and still charging at least $800 for them
My girl cousin still have her IPhone 11 she is not upgrade to a new iPhone anytime soon and I ask my teen girl cousin what is 60 HZ she will not know what it is and people who paying for iPhone in Canada and other countries iPhone will cost more
@@SchweinerSchinkler ik how businesses work, funny you assume I don’t. Yes, they wanna incentivize you to buy the pros, that doesn’t mean Apple should cheap out completely on the base model iPhones when they already cost $800 or more. But whatever, keep defending corporate greed all you want

Ye choosing between 13 and 13 pro I will choose 13 pro because I already have xs so it’s just 13 have better battery, brighter screen, 6,1 inch display but I want more so 13 pro way to go in future because of 90-120hz
Yeah ppl say the same for gaming and the reality is 120 is way better
Every IPhone since the iphone 12 pro max has been dissapointing.
ALMOST agree, I love my 13PM, incredible battery life, wonderful screen and has been amazing. Paired with my fold4 I'm happy for a couple of years. 14PM and now 15PM does nothing for me...
You mean you haven't been happy with the 13S, and the 14S and the 15S?

Galaxy Samsung, I will remain as a customer 👏
It is very refreshing to see a tech content creator like yourself state the facts and not just gloss over the issues regardless of the loyalty to a product. Thanks @TechOdyssey for what you do. Peace!
Thank you. I appreciate it.
Refreshing, good one

The Cheapest Android Phones in my Country Come with a 90 Hz Refresh Rate Screen. I mean the Phone that Costs 1/8th of the Price of Base iPhone 15. 😅
I asked more then half of my friends ( about roughly 40 ) plus my family if they care about refresh rate. Two said yes, rest said no. For the average consumer that doesn’t need a Pro model, the 60 hz is good
Ikr. They will release it to base models like an "upgrade" next year (or decade).
They will invent it in 2028 lol
@@destroyer100onblitzhow many of them have ever used a phone with higher refresh rate for atleast a week?
have you asked them with same money should they like stuck in ancient tech or flagship level screen when they are paying for flagship price
@@premmahto4855 plenty of them. Almost all have iPhones. They used Samsung before. Some stayed at Samsung, plenty got to iPhone. The Samsungs they used were A series, no user of a S series wanted to upgrade to an iPhone

I did like the Apple event highlighted the 6 people that are alive due to the safety features. I was surprised they didn't mention how many people are dead because they were distracted by their phones.
Bruh…
@jpmcnown1 - You nailed it. Additionally, think about all the Apple-own-ian customers who pay so much money and a premium price for their devices, and then have to spend even more money for Apple's overpriced rip-off adapters.
The sad thing is that over the last several years it seems that the quality of Apple's products, especially their Macbooks, has really gone downhill. Over the last several years, there's a sort of acceptance by apple customers which they realize their devices will not be as reliable and won't have the better longevity which they used to have.
I am sure that Apple has no problems with this shorter lifespan of their products and consider it to be planned obsolescence so their customers can come back and buy their devices on a more frequent and regular basis. Some Apple-own-ians have become so entrenched and trapped into that eco system that they won't consider anything else except for apple products and devices.
Apple customers are mostly oblivious to this situation with the refresh rate, among other comparisons. Remember it wasn't to long ago that that the regular entry level iPhones, the non- Pro and non Pro Max models, didn't even have 1080 displays? Or going back even further, expandable storage on an iPhone wasn't available, whereas Samsung and other Android phone manufacturers used to offer phones with this feature.
Welcome to the world of Apple, think different.
Lmao
A typical iphone user buys the brand, it could be a turd with the logo, and it will still sell millions of units
Sir,
It’s called a Dynamic Island,
Not a Turd. 😅
🤣😂
Some people buy a new iPhone go for the colors
1:56 I mean.
They could make the 120hz standard for the "Base" iPhone and 244hz for the Pro models.
That WOULD actually make it be "Pro" but of course, Apple doesn't want to treat their customers as smart people.
Literally finally someone who is honest and isn’t sucking apples sack because of the “hype”
🫡
Man you're right, once you use a 120hrz screen for a little bit, 60 looks so laggy and jittery. It almost impossible to go back
Yeah bro I used 144hz on my Xiaomi which doesn't cost more than 350usd and I don't wanna use any device that is less than 120hz anymore. I mean I can't with 60hz... It's impossible for me. Apple is ripping off these guys man. 800usd is a lot and should be able to buy a FLAGSHIP device.
@@MistermuskI'm using a S23 and I'm waiting for the Xiaomi 14 global edition.
I tried going back to iPhone with the xr, then the 12, and ultimately decided that I'll never go back to that mediocre software experience. It's a shame they're doing the thing where a company withholds basic features to make updates seem amazing. Just watch everyone go crazy when they finally add multi-tasking. Props for not being biased.
Couldn’t agree more. What r they really updating on a featureless phone, lol? I actually don’t think they will ever incorporate multitasking. For one reason; the greed of losing any iPad sales. Same reason u well never see an Apple Pencil on an iPhone.
Hell well I love iPhone always have and always will
@@2k_adriandagoat453sheep
Dude.. I’ve had both many times and apples iOS is way better.. come on now. That’s the one thing they got over android imo.
You are SO on point!! 🎯
Nice thumbnail!
I agree that the regular 15 should have 120Hz. I know the opposing argument is that consumers who buy that range don’t notice the difference but at this point it’s just the principle. Everyone else has it, so why hold back on consumers?
I enjoy the colors on the regular 15, but of course… what am I going to buy because I’m so used to it…
I get it’s a company, and they need to be profitable but damn. I’m tired of their tactics for cash grabs.
Thank you! Yup. It gets old. And I think that normal people would care if they knew better, but they don't. I don't think a higher refresh rate or other Android features is enough for people to leave apple services or iMessage, but... apple should quit ripping them off and give them better hardware for the price.
Most people don’t care about 120HZ most people still have their old iPhone longer or most people still buying older iPhones not a pro models and my girl cousin still have her iPhone 11 she not upgrade her iPhone to a new iPhone anytime soon
60 hz and USB 2.0 speeds for $800. How are people still buying these products?
Lack of education
$830 unlocked if you don't want to be stuck 24 to 36 months with from ATT, Verizon or T-Mobile
But these buyers mostly from first world developed countries and r they that uneducated?😢
@@hillsongbest3818 It saddens me to say, they are,
*_iBrainwash_*
Apple is the master of charging a premium for non premium products. They've been that way forever. I just hope people wisen up and demand better for their money. USB 2.0 is insane
Yup. It's crazy
I have never transferred files using a cable. Probably, 95% of iPhone users don't care about USB 3 connection. We buy Apple Phones because of iOS and it's wireless ecosystem. And the hype around 120Hz is stupid. It's nice, for sure. But it's not necessary and doesn't really impact any daily usage. I have disabled ProMotion on my MacBook Pro, so what. It's not something necessary for an average user. iOS has been smooth since day one and everyone knows it, we don't actually need 120hz. This is focusing on the important aspects that a device should offer, ignoring the nerdy things that a couple of geeks think are "necessary". If you need to transfer hundreds of gigabytes every day and seeing high FPS all the time, its OK, just buy an Android. But don't bother us, we know what we are buying.
@@MatiMape you must have drank gallons of apple Kool aid today
@@MatiMape finally someone sensible in the hate comment galore. Seriously, how niche someone's usage have to be to continuously scroll to even feel the 120Hz refresh rate on a small screen. For gaming, I get it as it makes huge difference. But day to day usage? Makes absolutely no difference. Before anyone jump in and say 'oh that's because you're a fanboy and never used 120hz screen', shut up. I game daily on a 240hz monitor and I use MacBook pro for my productivity and I care the least about 120hz on a phone.
And 90% of people who are mocking USB 2.0 never even connected their precious android phones to computer ONCE to transfer a file.
At the end of the day, everyone have their priorities. It's not like buying android is intelligence and buying iPhones is dumb. If you're living in that delusion, may the Lord bless you.
And people who complain about locked features and no innovation, who cares if you're first to do something? Samsung did the foldables, did it sell in millions? If you care about that, please go buy the most innovative phones in millions so that IT WILL FORCE APPLE TO DO MORE. until then, peace out. Stop complaining and respect others choices.
@@ManneBharathYou’re right. While I can very clearly see the difference between 60 hz and 120, my parents for example can’t see the difference at all, same with alot of people. And yeah, there’s ALOT of android users who like to think they’re some super enlightened individual with genius level IQ and love to act all high and mighty all because of a fucking phone operating system and it’s so pathetic lmao. Classic telltale sign of narcissism in its purest form. All the while most android users are using some sub standard $200 chinese junk android and can barely even afford the flagships…
If you've had a 60Hz display and never experienced a 120Hz display you don't know what your missing so its not an issue. A lot of people keep there iPhones for up to 5 years. A lot of people who are thinking of upgrading are coming from XR and XS series. The faster chip, usb c (finally), dynamic island, Better Cameras, wide angle lenses, better aperture, IOS17 features only coming to iPhone 12 and above, better speakers, smaller bezels etc etc. Not to mention iMessage and the Apple Eco System. There's a clear reason why people want the new iPhone 15. Now if your argument is against people with the iPhone 14 (fair enough) but I'd argue android phones aren't innovating year on and year out either.
100% agreed.
Android has been innovating the smart phones industry a lot more than Apple. Folding screens, rolling out screens, flip screens, sliding screens, 2 screens, refresh rates, 100x zooms, macro lens, double speakers, USB c, behind screen camera, pop up cameras, stylus/pen, curve screens
120 hz , USB c , fast charging , four generations of the galaxy fold several years ahead of iphones and youre saying they aren't innovating?
Mate , iphones release the feature in 2023 and it's seen as some sort of revolutionary feature when they've been working quite well on Androids all along and to be honest Samsung is miles ahead in a lot of things.
@@warzoneidiot881Folding screens are too expensive, no one is buying them as they have poorer cameras and performance, in display cameras are worse than iPhones cameras, pop up cameras are already dead, USB C isn't Android innovation, Apple helped design USB C. Only thing going for Android now is fast charging
@giggitygigs you a lie. I just upgraded from my iPhone 13 to the fold 5. I would never go back to ios. Major upgrade imo!
Apple's marketing is genius and they clear and away IMO have the best marketing of any company. They obviously know their users, their repeat buyers especially, and take advantage of their lack of caring and education in regards to what they are buying especially in comparison to what is the accepted norm in the tech community. They have created this bubble they operate in and they have fully gotten their users to believe the same which is why Apple rarely if ever makes any direct comparisons to what another OEM is doing and continues to coin certain terms differently to what the industry norm is and further creates this idea that they are excluded from the rest of the industry and this belief is very much apparent to diehard iPhone users who will never think twice about an Android phone. What does this kind of thinking and behavior remind you of? If you said a cult, you'd be right.
OMG! I have been calling them a cult for years!!! 😂😂😂
The number one thing for me is data protection, maybe I will get GrapheneOS someday. For now I'll stick to the closed source iOS operating system.
Apple products are just reliable and the most comfortable to use. It's like a moped versus a motorcycle sure the moped is slower and does less but grandma isn't gonna be scared using it. Maybe she will but she'll get the hang of it much faster than a motorcycle
@@shquankinket8068 well then the smooth brained people will keep paying 1k for a phone with ancient stuff, props to apple for creating this, it's so good that people defend this atrocity
@@LOONAbd first 3nm chip is ancient indeed. And death stranding albeit at shit quality is also ancient fs. Gotta love it. Also Samsung phones start at a higher price
I totally agree with you man! I have a 13 Pro Max which I barely use, because I do like the Ultra Watch, but that's it. I'm totally happy with my Samsung S23 Ultra and waiting on the S24 Ultra. By the way, if rumors are true that China will ban iPhones in their country prohibiting their use to government folks, which will eventually trickle down to the rest of the population, then Apple is in big trouble. On the other hand, their computer systems are excellent. Maybe they should focus on that market more.
Same situation. 13 pro max, ultra watch and s23 Ultra. I’m not upgrading
Switched from 14 Pro Max to S23 Ultra. Never going back.
THANK YOU!! I've been saying the exactly same thing about tech reviewers for years now. They all seem to want to dump on Google Pixels while finding any excuse in the world for iPhones lacking features. Once of the BIGGEST lacking features of the iPhone is the ability to communicate with other non-Apple devices. I own both the iPhone 14 Plus and the Pixel 7 Pro. About 95% of the time I'm reaching for my Pixel 7 Pro because I can get it to connect to my Surface Pro 7, Samsung Galaxy Tab tablet and Asus Chromebook and it works flawlessly. My iPhone doesn't connect to any of these things and I'll be damned if I'm going to spend a fortune to buy an Apple Mac or iPad just to be able to use Apple's locked-down ecosystem to connect. Also, now that Google Messages uses RCS, I'm getting almost all of the exact same features that Apple iMessage does between iPhones, but I can do it with Samsung, Xiaomi, Pixel, OnePlus, etc. And, I can do it on my Pixel phone, my Asus Chromebook, my Samsung Galaxy Tab tablet and even my Microsoft Surface Pro 7. So, in my opinion, iMessage is the lacking messaging app, not Google Messages.
True on the refresh rate, even the lower S23 has 120hz, hell the a54 has high refresh rate lol. I'm definitely thinking of trying the iPhone 15 now that it's USB type C and dynamic island for the first time. I've used an iPhone once and didn't like it, so might give another shot.
Good luck. Hopefully you'll enjoy it if you buy one
There's no real developer love for the dynamic island just yet... only a few apple apps support it.😊
Respect your honesty. Over the years, I am observing that youtubers singing praises for Apple products are finding it more difficult every year to sing the same praises. It is funny some times. The only thing that I am happy about the launch of iPhone 15 is their commitment of going Green. Tim Cook is not a good actor, but he tried. :-)
I was using iPhone 12 and have skipped the next few generations of iPhone as I see no point of upgrading. Now I am using S23U and zFlip5. Pretty pleased with the Samsung, and finding good value for money in these phones.
Really appreciate your honesty. Keep up the good work. Cheers.
Thank you very much.
Most tech TH-camrs go for the pro models more at end of the day most people keep their old iPhone longer and most people still buying older non pro models
I agree with you in respect to TH-camrs pushing brands because they get paid for them. Too many people say that the current year phone is the latest and greatest despite flagships coming out every year on IOS and Android. However, iphone values never drop because they are consistent and they control the manufacturing and software unlike android that run like today's oil companies. Shot out to LG for making 2K screens when nobody else was doing that and the awesome Quad DAC but TH-camrs hated them back then.
Promotion is adaptive. It’s not a static number. It’s 1Hz to 120Hz depending on what you are doing with your phone.
I noticed Apple took the iPhone 14 pro off their website, probably because of how it could cut into iPhone 15 sales.
Apple always does that when they announced a newer pro model iPhone.
They always do that with every pro model, because no one in their right mind would buy an iPhone 15 for $800 if a 14 Pro is $900, and a 14 Pro Max is $1000
get it from a carrier they still have them
@@lacosta0892 Exactly 😁
@@lacosta0892it is not $800 in Canada and other countries they buy iPhones it will cost more stop act like everyone live in USA
When they finally provide more then 60hz, they will probably call it Pro Motion Magic +....or some dumb shit like that. Lol
Lol. Probably. I don't doubt it at all
I was sickened when I learned Apple was parking all their cash in Ireland to avoid paying Taxes in America a few years ago .It's always good to scrutinize them . Good Video, Thanks
Excellent point! I’m just happy i only paid $430.00 for the iphone se 3 that has the same refresh rate as the standard iphone 15.
i actually dont mind that if the 15 still has lightning connecter but a 60hz in 2023. thats really unacceptable. haha
Yeah... its crazy
The Bold n3 has a 120hz refresh rate and it only cost $249 lol.
Love honest and straight to the point tech reviewers like yourself ❤👍
🙏 thank you
I totally understand where you're coming from about the non-Pro phones STILL having 60hz displays...
But I think it comes down to Apple isn't feeling any pressure to put a higher refresh display on the non-Pro models
No pressure from the BIG reviewers and certainly none from the consumers who buy them because they keep buying them
Spot on! I posted something similar on another channel. Apple's business strategy is working fine and so why change that? Apple knows that they will be fine and will get away with anything really. I have never owned an iPhone and probably never will but I admire them.
@@muhammad-bin-americanat end of the day most people like to keep their iPhone long like my girl cousin
@@saharajohnson6481 And that makes perfect sense as long as you figure out a way to beat Apple's deliberate battery degradation issue. But again all that doesn't matter really because iPhones are still going to outsell the competition by billions and that's all that matters to Tim Cook. In other words Apple is doing everything right to make money but not enough to improve tech for the people. In fact no other company has done more to harm advancement of tech like Apple in the past decade but hey the people are perfectly fine with that so no worries at all.
Console and TV makers do the same thing. They push 4k and 8k despite most people who care saying that framerate is more important than resolution when it comes to perceived quality.
I’m Apple products across the board because I prefer the software experience and seamless integration of products. Yes, it’s totally annoying what Apple does at times (I couldn’t care less about refresh rates though), but I still greatly prefer the Apple experience to Android (and yes, I tried it for a year and couldn’t wait to ditch my Samsung phone). Thanks for the review!
Android users say the same 😂
Apple should ask the costumer to choose physical or electronic SIM Card, why they have to choose for us with our money
Apple is not a democracy
In terms of esim, carriers in the US are adopting the tech. Apple is being the first to make everyone else jump on it too. Remember them killing the headphone jack? Same concept. Esim allows for carrier advancement in 5G, something you can't get out of a physical Sim card.
Some normal costumer will keep their old iPhone longer
For many people who have other Apple products, the iPhone integrates with all their other devices very smoothly.
Most people don't notice it.. Also I thought it dynamically changes between 60-120hert refresh rate to save battery and speed things up.. In the end, if you notice the different you must be game all the time. Most people don't game a lot on their phone, just get an Xbox if thats what you do!
As someone who plays video game it becomes clearer. Also watching a video and playing is also different as well. Some screens or TVs don't support high refresh rates. But if you look for specifics in your devices it would be very clear. Once you get used to higher rates it becomes very noticeable when you go down some.
my 240 dollar realme android phone has 144hz refresh rate. so, there's that. I regularly use it and it's great. I only use my iPhone 12 to take some photos and some other demanding tasks. no iPhone upgrade for me for the next 3 years at least. I'm happy with my 12 and my android
I'm not defending the 60Hz display because I agree that 90 would be appropriate for the price while still leaving a gap to the Pro phones, but I think the reason why people sing the iPhones praises regardless of the 60Hz screen is because you get such a polished and excellent user experience with iPhone/iOS. You are buying a phone that will easily last 6+ years and even once it no longer supports the latest iOS, you will STILL get security patches. The camera is very decent for the price/category, they have a powerful CPU, GPU, AI etc. They are good value REGARDLESS ofthe 60Hz screen. Personally I am a tech enthusiast so I would only ever get the Pro models anyway but I think for most people who probably dont even know what 60Hz means, it is fine and they will be super happy with it regardless.
I don't think there is a single $200 android phone that has a "Better display" than the iPhone 15 pro lol. It might only be 60Hz but it still has ALL of the colour, brightness etc that you would expect from a flagship.
Oh boo hoo you ONLY get the A16 Bionic, a SIP that is more powerful than even the latest Snapdragon 8 Gen 2. Booooo hoooooo.
Sd 8gen 2 has better gpu than a16 and same cpu performance compared to a15, a16 is not better
@@ihaswisdom64 A16 is 26% faster single core and 9% faster multi core. Snapdragon might have a faster GPU on paper but in practice I find they often stutter, plus most flagship Android phones have a 1440p display so they are pushing more pixels and therefore need more power just to perform equally as good. My point is that the A16 is still a very good and powerful chip and if you don’t want to pay full price for a Pro iPhone with the latest A17 Pro then at least you still get a very powerful A16 chip.
@@The.JZA. I think you are giving reference to geekbench which sometimes is being called 'apple bench", yep a16 is pretty powerful but not so stable, there are tons of problems on the i14 pro like heating and battery issues, I know what's up when my mom's new iphone is even hotter than my dad's 3 years old android phone when photographing outdoors.

Also Apple introduced USB-C only after it was forced by EU. Apple by itself never gave USB-C inspite of so many customer requests over the years.
Apple talks about saving environmental waste, but itself created so much environmental waste of lightning cables all over the world now.

How would apple using the same cable for over a decade create more cable waste? That literally doesn’t make sense.
For me Apple lost me with the dynamic island I don’t want or need that so im sticking with my 13 pro till they get a well overdue refresh. Only so far they can stretch this out. If pixel move to snapdragon i will be going there next.
The dynamic island is an excellent addition to the iphone, and would be the best option to the S23 Ultra....... HOWEVER, there needs to be an option to shut it off while watching video content. I use the S23U all the time, and iPhone a little for testing purposes. I do like the island when playing music, maps, and other apps. It would be a great idea for Android too, but not for viewing movies
I don't mind the dynamic island, I strongly dislike having only e-sim support on the newest Iphones however. Seems like it would be a big hassle changing providers with only e-sim support. That's the main reason I don't see myself upgrading from my Se 2022 anytime soon.

Dave2D said it best, “Does a high refresh screen have an actual benefit? Does it bring an experience that is truly useful for the average person?” It’s nice to have, but is it really that important? If you don’t like that it’s not included for the price, don’t buy it....easy. At a certain point, you realize they are just phones.
Sounds like an apple bot.
Does a 2000nits screen matter ? 😂😂😂Apple sheep
This is so true. Apple keynotes are borderline scammy with their marketing tactics. Advertising various focal lengths when it’s literally just cropping is so scammy.
Awesome video. The 5x zoom on the pro max is lauded by several review websites as “pushing boundaries” and “challenging mirrorless cameras”.. like, say what?
Not a single. Mention of s23 ultra in their articles. It’s pretty ridiculous how sold out mainstream tech reviewers are.
Thanks for telling it like it is, someone had to do it.
I have it,it’s almost unusable in the video…Jittery af
@@Nothing-kr5hn the S23 ? Been using it almost a year. No issues on videos.
Thanks for a more unbiased discussion. Apple have become like the insurance company you just keep staying loyal to and they keep increasing the prices without giving you anything extra. I left them and found that Samsung are light years ahead - i am using the fold 5z and it's incredible. I think the apple ecosystem is the issue and keeps people sticky but also gives folk a lazy reason to stay. Too many reviewers don't tell you the complete facts and are letting people spend more and more on potentially inferior products or products with limitations.
You are right, most people that uses an iPhone will say the eco system is a major thing, I agree a good eco system is a thing but the iPhone itself is so overrated.
You blame Apple for increasing prices and talk about your 2000 dollar phone with inferior cameras lol
This is what big companies do if people are Dumb ... It's not their fault, they are just here to do business and they are doing it.
Some people like myself can’t really notice the difference. I go between my 13pm and iPad 9 everyday and I never think “wow I can’t stand this iPad screen.” I’m actually getting the 15plus and trading in my 13pm. Lol! I love the blue and the pink but went for the blue. I would have gotten a plus when I got the 13 but it didn’t exist. That’s just me.
my iphone 13 just crapped out and it does not function properly unless bluetooth headphones are connected. It is only 2 years old and still looks brand new, speakers don't work and videos won't play without bluetooth headphones being connected. and it randomly shuts down now then power cycles taking 5-10 minutes to come back on. meanwhile my iphone 8 plus is now faster then my iphone 13... and does not have those issues and the speakers still work. I would not ever trust apple again. There is not a single scratch on my iphone 13 and my iphone 8 plus has a lot of scratches. apple is deeply going downhill.
And many people, especially in the US, don't realize that USB-C was a European Union regulation. Without it, Apple would not be able to sell iPhones throughout Europe. So this is not a feature, but an obligation.
I’m in your camp..not just the refresh rate I was even expecting AOD.
The whole trick is to make you buy pro max.
One plus 11 650 and change sometimes even cheaper on Amazon..120hz AOD Qhd+ LTPO panel fingerprint on display tears it apart value standpoint.
Yup. Apple is always trying to upsell you.
At this point, iPhones and most other phones are about as interesting as a wall socket. Innovation in that space has pretty much ended. The only amazing thing is how much money they charge for these.
It’s almost identical to the 14. It’s crazy!! The only way I get the phone this year is if I can get it at a HUGE promotion from my provider. If not, it’s a skip this is ridiculous.
Hey, they added dynamic island! Lol
They are giving up to 1000 if you trade in.... you'll have to see their list of what's eligible.
Just my 2¢, I think 120hz is overrated. When I "downgraded" to my Pixel 6a i didnt miss it.
😂 I fell asleep before they even announced the pro models. Android is already moving up to 144hz. Super fast charging, Apple like always way behind, no reverse charging, no pen support, it’s ridiculous. Hope you feel better soon!!!
It was super boring. I actually did fall asleep for most of it. Didn't make it past the Apple watch 😅. And thank you. I hope so too. Being sick sucks
In my view, most users need a working phone with a nice, user-friendly UI and as much safety as possible, and Apple is exactly delivering this. Not everyone needs all the settings and functions that can overload the user. Also, not everyone requires detailed specifications, as long as the phone works as intended during its use. The functional ecosystem is more important than having the best specifications for most users. It’s like having the best car, but if there’s no gasoline station, it becomes useless.
Android and apple think we are stupid. Current Pixel Fold user 😩
But Pixel is Not Android. There are
Other Brands under Android Umbrella. 😅
Pour one out for that inner screen
The worse is that the vast majority of iPhone users/fans is that they cannot even begin to understand or name the specs in their phone. They just want it because of something as stupid as a new color or the fact that it's new lol
Hey, the pink one is the fastest
It's hilarious that they are touting USB C as a new feature when they were forced to adopt it by the EU. Android phones have had USB c since like 2015.
Also with the refresh rate apple does that to try and force people who care about those features to buy the more expensive model. Its simply greed. Tech reviewers should be calling them out on it.
Apple has always done the bare minimum of upgrades to their phones.
Finally someone with senseful arguments. That is a smart analysis when all I see on TH-cam is iPhone 15 sponsored videos with people saying it's amazing and this and that just because of a photo camera upgrade ? ridiculous. I would have bought the iPhone 15 base model if there were 120 hz display, hell even 90 hz but come on now 60 hz in 2023 ?! They should be ashamed for commercializing that it's embarassing !
well apple is known for using words like: retina display, promotion, supercharge, etc. then add words like extra, super, ultra, plus, etc for the following generations to trick people that doesn't know much about tech.
For sure
Ahaha you kidding. Can't get tbh how people can really sit at android and think its better than iPhones. Its pain experience
i prefer longer battery than just some more fluidity in scrolling pages
Even the lower mid range Samsung A devices have 90 hertz.
Yep. And they feel smoother than my iPhone 14 pro max scrolling
Samsung A Series are Premium mid range.
F Series is the Lower mid range.
@@johnnydoe3603 exactly what I said. A series are mid range, even the lower devices on this range have 90 hz.
That's because iOS and the way they do Promotion, a lot of the time you aren't getting 120hz.
Apple is laughing
I don’t doubt it
Totally agree.
Good point 👍
It is way…You can use almost all things with iPhone SE3…
I skimmed through the apple keynote and was pretty disappointed by everything I saw. The only cool thing I saw was the new titanium look. I won’t be buying a new phone for a “new” charging convenience and a aesthetic change. Sadly I haven’t been thrilled with my 14 pro max, but it’s certainly good enough. Not to mention they are offering $650 trade in for it 💀. The apple watch ultra 2 is certainly not worth it, unless it’s your first ultra or first apple watch. At some point I would like to have all of my apple stuff usb c as I dual an android phone all the time, but I will do so at a slower pace considering these terrible offerings.
Yup. Spent more time interviewing mother nature and talking about recycled components than any new features.
Thanks for the video. I have a 13p and the 120hz is super smooth it’s criminal they keep releasing phones with 60hz. Also no reason to upgrade frol my 13p not much has changed.
Out of all the languages to speak and you chose to speak FACTS 💯
Lol. I try.
Samsung user since 2017 here. Never had an iPhone. Have the 23+ right now, but t Mobile is giving me a 15 Pro Max for $300, so I'm going to take it. I'm sure I'll be back to the 23+ in a week.
I totally agree with you. I hate the colors of the 15 series.
That too.
Not necessarily. I have the iPad Pro 2020 and 2021 12.9 m1. I also have a 13 pro max. All have 120 refresh rate. I’m on my iPad mini 6 more than all of those with 60hz refresh rate and I literally can’t even tell the difference. I also never noticed the infamous jelly scroll so I may be an outlier lol but I prefer the iPad mini. So I honestly think it’s a preference and the average user can’t tell the difference however you’re right it should be on the regular iPhones too
Apple HATERS are having a field day in the comments. Enjoy 🤪
More and more reviewers should bring this issue forward. Maybe if enough of them speak about this, then the iphone (base model) buyers would understand they deserve better for the price they pay.
My girl cousin still have her IPhone 11 she not upgrade to a new iPhone anytime soon and most people love to keep their old iPhone longer
we need more content creators like you bro telling the truth about apple you made great points i agree with you 100% keep up the work you do for us viewers
Feels almost like Dynamic Island would need 120hz to really make the animations look good.
I honestly can't stand most tech reviewers for not calling out apple on their bs ways...yet singing the praises of basic things that have already been on android for years or even worse acting like something that isn't created by apple is the most difficult thing in the world to figure out. Look at pixel watch reviews with the band mechanism. It's really not that difficult.
Still rocking a 12. All that has changed since then as far as I can tell, is the camera lenses have gone diagonal instead of vertical. No Apple, just the shiny Dynamic Island is not going to tempt me....
It is all a matter of company philosophy. Apple has since upgraded their products very slowly - for all their products. Look from another point, Since the begin of the beginning, Apple created the "expectation bar" People sit and wait for months for the next product improvements, speculations are like crazy, and then when the product is shown, the air goes out, and tech reviewers get disappointed, but the regular people buy like crazy the new products. What is happening is that tech reviewers helped Apple build the expectation bar, and later when the new product is below the expectation, your influence on the people is zero. This is the genius marketing strategy Apple succeeded in achieving 🙂. If you buy a phone based on specs and logic, you will buy the Samsung S23 which is by far more advanced than any Apple phone, but buying an iPhone is a totally different thing.
Their storage prices are insane. Geuinely pisses me off
The best way to stop this scummy behaviour is to vote with your wallet. Hold onto your “older” devices for longer. Poor sales will force them to rethink their value proposition. I’m still rocking my 4 year old iPhone 11 Pro Max. I may just have its battery replaced if the battery health drops down to the 80s - currently at 91%
People have been holding since iPhone X and 11. Now every year, more and more people will upgrade to latest iPhone
Most people don't even see the difference between phones with 60 Hz and 120 Hz if you don't put them next to each other. I tried that with multiple peoples...
S23 Ultra all day long
Woot!
You are totally right!!!
Thanks!
The iPhone 15 ( standard version) has a 2000 nit peak brightness. I guess thats pretty good for outdoors use. Would be nicer if it had at least a 90htz display
At end of the day most people still buying older iPhones or most people keep their iPhone longer and my girl cousin still have her iPhone 11 she not upgrade to a newer iPhone anytime soon
This is probably one of your best videos. I just read someone's article talking about you and this video.
You have a good point. I can definitely agree that any device anywhere near that price range should have the best spec’s possible.
Speaking of refresh rate. I remember we had a little check comparison with my sister on her iphone display to mine. She tried using my device for an hour of 144hz experience and ask her if she notices something smooth or snappy feeling before and after the switch. She just said no, her iphone is much smoother she says. Idk what to say because I even noticed the difference when we exchange phones.
This series of yours on the iPhone 15 is going to be EPIC and I am here for it!!!
Lol. Thanks
Apple doesn't think its customers are stupid, it knows they're sheeps. Can you imagine an Android using 60Hz refresh rate with a previous year's chip? I would be okay if they did it with SE iPhones but certainly not with their flagship phones!
The iPhone 15 has made very good improvements, way bigger than normal and people complain like they just went from the 13 to the 14s or something. I don’t understand…
That person hate Apple stop buying their products leave Apple alone keep it moving
9:36 education, clarification, information. These 3 golden words..subscribed!
Thank you. Welcome aboard
No, not a lot has changed. That's partially why I've always been an Android user. However, for the changes they did make, they kept the prices the same. (Except for the 15 Pro Max, which doubles the storage, so it's not really an increase.) I will say, too, that the lack of 120hz is the biggest drawback of the regular iPhone models for me. However, 60hz on an iPhone is not nearly as noticeable as it is on an Android. iPhones are buttery smooth and fast no matter what the refresh rate is. iPhones never feel laggy or choppy whether 60hz or not. I have the Pixel 6 Pro. (Complete trash. Don't ever buy one.) It has 120hz, but it's so laggy and choppy that it feels like 60hz at best. Using an iPhone without promotion is nothing like using a cheap Android with 60hz.
I think that a majority of the people that buy the iPhone 15 doesn't care about specs that much.
I see more women buying and unboxing videos of IPhone 15 or IPhone 15 Plus more than man
Samsung ftw!
Samsung phones are the worst. Always end up being glitchy lag filled messes after a year or two. Pixels/Xperia models always outlived any Samsung model I've owned.
That's 5-6 years ago Samsung and Android on general. Not the case anymore.
Most Apple consumers will continue to ignore the technical aspects of the phone and justify their purchase because Apple is a status symbol. At the end of the day, it's still their money to spend however they want.
Ye same as and android users spend their money at phones which will freeze, have lags, slow down through several months or year and will have to buy other model if they not have pleasure from painful experience so ye. Let people spend their money how they want I guess
I couldn't be happier that you are holding Apple to task. I feel like there's a tipping point now. It's enough already. After 12 years I am officially done with iPhone. I will keep my 13 mini but my next phone will either be a pixel 8 or a fold 5. It also amazes me how some of the loyalists defend Apple. At this point, apple is a shameless marketing company primarily and a tech company secondarily. "Look over here at this shiny new thing while we distract you from the features you haven't been getting for many years." "Only this watch will save your life. We are saving the planet and if you buy any other product you are destroying the planet." I want to throw up. Last years chip, 60hz but we r virtuous. If Apple spent as much money and time on their software as they did on their marketing events, the iPhone might be good. Sorry for the rant but they are just so gross right now. Peace.
Yup. There is a lot of craziness going on
Thanks for calling out the hypocrisy of other TH-camrs. Drives me nuts. “I’ve used this phone for two weeks” literally show their home screens looking the same way it did when they unboxed it. So in two weeks you didn’t install your apps or change the wallpaper?
No normal person would even notice the refresh rate. Get the phone you want. I am getting the 15 because it's pink and I want a pink phone , going from 12 pro.
Enjoy your pink phone
Thank you for some freaking TRUTH it’s something that’s more and more fleeting in today’s world.
You’re welcome. Thanks for watching
I started to watch MKBHD iphone 15 review, dodnt even make it 2 minutes before i turned it off....copy and paste apple
Everybody should wake up and stop buying an iPhone phones it's just waste of money and it's a scam in your pocket. Don't get full. Just wake up and stop letting scammers grab your money
