    I think this is a bigger upgrade for someone coming from a XS, 11, 12 series. I think if you have a 13 or 14 series this will be very boring as there isnt a huge difference especially from the 14 pro series. Most phones are so good nowadays that upgrading every year isnt absolutely neccessary unless you have to have the latest thing. Good vid bro.

    @VinylGourmetTV 11 місяців тому +99

    One of the major questions with the 15 Pro Max and how it differs from previous generation iPhones e the way the new 5x zoom lens affects Portrait Mode, not just the image quality itself, but the usability and practicality aspects of dealing with such a large zoom increase (from previous 3x zoom). I use 3x Portrait Mode a lot, this is in fact the main factor to make me decide on an upgrade to the latest iPhone or not... I'm really concerned that the 120mm 5x zoom will make it very difficult to use Portrait Mode in several scenarios. So, if you can make a review very much focused in comparing Portrait Mode on the new 15 Pro Max and previous generations, specifically at 3x and 5x zoom and how different approaches and strategies are necessary to shoot the same subjects with these different zoom ranges, it would be really useful.

    I honestly would much rather have a 3x zoom than a 5x one; I use the former a lot for portraits and a 5x is not a practical zoom length for portraits in many scenarios. Apple should've done what Samsung did and provided both the 3x and 5x (10x in Samsung's case), but since they make you choose, I can see some photography enthusiasts going with the 15 pro even if they initially wanted the 15 pro max just to get the 3x zoom.

      But Samsung wasn't able to pair that zoom with OIS, so good luck to shoot a night time photo with longer exposure or a video, where every little handsake transformed to a giant leap on the screen. They are good for fast daytime shoots, but the slower/longer shoots like night time or video is pretty unacceptable there.

    So, far this is definitely the highest quality review of these I've watched, love it. Not too cringe, not too overdone, not to effortless. As for the devices, they're definitely better but still don't meet my minimum requirements in some respects, Ram, Display (Base Model), and zoom. As a 3-year iPhone 11 user who's not in any financial situation to be spending anything on phones of all things, if or when I do upgrade, I want it to be as futureproof as I need it to be within my usual ownership range, 3-5 years. What I'm mainly concerned about is how the software effects the experience of the device, both currently and in the future because my iPhone 11 hasn't held up well with these horrendously poorly developed IOS updates, iOS 16/17 being the worst of them I've used. Apple has kind of been losing me here as I feel like there's definitely more compelling competition now that they've been screwing things up from being at the top for so long.

    i use 13 pro which i bought back in 2021, used the hell out of it. its at 86% after 2 years. So it means heat is major issue because more powerful processors are producing more heat and causing more heat damage with fast charging. Apple never say anything about heat management even though we all know how hot they get while using outdoors. You can almost never use full brightness features cuz it shows heat warning after 5 minutes. But anyway just replace the battery who cares.

    The biggest issue with the 15 Pro Max is the huge distance in focal length between the 13mm, 24mm and 120mm focal length equivalents lenses. That’s a pretty terrible range between the 24mm and 120mm lenses, as everything in between is just digital cropping. Not great for photo or video. Would have been better to have a 50mm lens at 48MP and use digital zooming for the rest.

      The problem is that unguys charge ur phone till 100% and let it go under 20%
      I always charged my phones in the same way
      Basicly random charges through the day never under 20% or over 80%
      And all my phone had 100% after a year or a year and a half
      Except with the 14 pro
      This phone doesnt worth a penny . . .
      Its on 90% now and i have around 3 hours battery life fro. 100% to 0%
      With this phone i cant do the same thing like i did with the others cause i would get like 1,5~2 hours
      So if the 15 pro or pro max has the same or worse battery life then apple should bin them now

      Neither phone honestly seems to completely fall apart when directly comparing their 3x/5x modes, which surprises me. I fully expected the Pro Max to be hot garbage at 3-4.9x, and similarly the Pro to be awful at 5x. Really seems like a matter of preference on which focal range you prioritize, and if you will ever use the extra digital zoom the Pro Max gets, rather than strictly needing to get one or the other if you ever want to get a usable photo out of it's zoom gap.

    It seems to make more sense to purchase the Pro Max if you have the money for it. Not only do you get more battery, but you also have 2x "optical" zoom. So, moving from 2x to 5x optical zoom is IMO more useful than going from 2x to 3x optical zoom.

    I'm moderately tempted to upgrade my 13 pro for the 28, 35 and 50mm "lenses" and automatic portrait mode. I'm torn on the 5x. The extra zoom will come in handy at times, but now anything shorter telephoto is going to look like garbage because it will be a 3-4x digital crop. I bet 120mm from the 77mm lens looks better than 77mm from the 24mm lens.
    Would be cool if they did the larger 48MP main sensor for the 3x telephoto. Then they could have 77mm but it does the same "extra lens" tricks to give 90, 120 and 150mm equivalent.

      @@Joske0000 yeah, qualcomm is damn slow in cpu upgrades.
      But thier gpu upgrades are monsterous, i mean sd 8gen 2 is 2x more powerful than sd 888 in gpu meaning they give 35-50% gpu perfomance upgrades per year.
      Only if qualcomm keep upgrading thier cpus like thier gpus then they can catch apple in 2 years as u said
