    Short version: it's an incremental upgrade, and just that. As someone who came from non-pro iPhone 11 to iPhone 15 Pro Max I obviously felt a huge upgrade. If you're coming from anything more recent than a 12 Pro you won't really feel it that much to justify the price.

I’m using a 12pm myself and after watching many reviews I’ve decided it’s worth the upgrade for me. End of the day, it depends on whether do YOU think it’s worth the upgrade or not cause it depends on how you use it in your daily life. In my nature of business / workplace I’m required to used my phone a lot so it’s DEFINITELY worth the upgrade for me. Hope my opinion helps you understand and if not than I’m sorry.

    I also upgraded from the 13 Pro Max (gr8 phone) to the 15 Pro Max in natural titanium (with a RhinoShield case). One new upgrade you forgot to mention is a rarely used safety feature. It has the Satellite SOS & Roadside Assistance connectivity when out of cellular range. It even ties in with the crash detection capability. It's a great new phone, a bit steep on price. But the 13 Pro Max is still a beast.

      I want to be the one to say the satellite sos isn’t that effective, like literally, me and a friend ended up breaking down in the middle of nowhere and although we both had that feature set up it literally wouldn’t let us call emergency services to get us a tow truck out, (literally you can only call emergency services with it that’s it but we literally couldn’t the call kept failing) my friend had to walk 2 miles to the closest gas station to actually get help while I stayed with the car, it’s a good feature when it actually chooses to work so it does have some upsides over other iPhone models, the cameras in my opinion are a good upgrade, and the battery on the pro max 15 I’m seeing lasts only 2 hrs longer than my old 14 pro max and 4 hours over my 13 pro max

    I purchased the base iPhone 15 for the exact reasons you spoke about. I am very value-oriented. I don't want to pay for unnecessary features that I seldom, if ever, use. I just want a point-and-shoot camera. I have no need for USB 3.2. I have no need for 120Hz refresh. I have no need for the Action button. The base iPhone 15 satisfies 99% of my needs. And the money I saved went to a nice case, a nice screen protector, and a nice set of Bluetooth earbuds, with plenty of money left over. Haven't looked back at all.

    I just ordered an iPhone 15 Pro Max because the iPhone I have now, the 10S Max is really starting to show some age. Bought my iPhone 10S Max shortly after it first came out. I figured if I want my phone to last a long time again better to get the highest end and most future proof model so I went with the 15 Pro max over the 15 plus. I know the battery life sure is going to be a big upgrade for me since my 10S Max is still using its original battery and I have been charging that phone 3 times a day on average now since I was too cheap to get another battery put in the phone. 😆

    The bit where you went over the camera system with complete honesty… THANK YOU! Like, I thought I was losing my mind when every big tech reviewer on UA-cam were saying how the 15 Pro’s cameras could stack up against a DSLR or mirrorless camera. Thank you for basically saying, “lol, no it can’t”, because it’s true! Are smartphone cameras getting better and better each year? Yes. Is it honestly pretty crazy that our iPhones can now shoot in LOG? Yes. But, that doesn’t in any way suddenly make them better than even a decent big camera and lens.
    Apple shot their last even on iPhone, cool. But they still needed professional equipment to help support the phone. LOG won’t suddenly make the tiny sensors be able to shoot big productions, and replace professional cameras. I have a 13 Pro Max, and while the cameras are good enough for social media sometimes, they can’t ever dream of replacing my main DSLR in more ways than just image quality. Thank you for being 100% honest man, it was refreshing lol.

    I own a 15 Pro Max as well, base. My issue is Apple has taken the 15 Pro Max and tried to make it into, a very complicated wanna be professional camera system...the "point and click" iPhone days are now gone. Comparing my 13 PM pics to my 15 PM? My old 13 PM photos were much better! Macro sucks now on 15 PM, the 13 PM allowed much closer focus and a lot of owners say the same based on videos I've seen on YT. I've also noticed when you want to take a "fast pic", it's not going to happen. For some reason it seems to take a while to pull it out, tap to focus and then a small delay. Again, those days are gone of snapping a fast photo. Macro is crap, losing a TON of detail and you just can't get close enough compared to the 13 PM. My 15 PM camera also has a strange issue with, focusing while taking a pic or video. About a 3rd of the time, it just don't want to focus! Very very annoying. Also, the A17 Pro is absolute overkill. In every single YT video review, throttling is a thing due to overheating with graphically intense games. PUBG oddly still works great for me even on high settings. Overall, I'm not happy, disappointed being an iPhone owner since the 3GS, having owned every single model....it just feels like the same old Springboard, half-baked iOS and, design, and now, super buggy, unfinished.

    Hey Aaron this is a great review of the iPhone. You clearly have a sharp eye for the finer details. May I ask for your input on something? I do a lot of traveling and like to vlog about interesting things I see. I currently own an iPhone Pro 12 and a Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra. I mainly vlog with my S23 Ultra because the stock Samsung camera app is very vlogger friendly and the video quality are visually pleasing. I've tried vlogging with my current iPhone and the previous iPhone I had but I often find the photo and video quality somewhat depressing. Half the time when I use my iPhone I look too warm, a tad yellow/orange, and washed out. This has frustrated me enough to stop using my iPhone to vlog because I don't like the idea of capturing fleeting moments on my travels only to find the footages disappointing. I have been wanting to upgrade to the iPhone 15 Pro Max and use it to vlog but the concerns of the yellow/orange/washed out qualities are holding me back. All that said, do you have any suggestions on how to remedy those issues on iPhone photos and videos? I know the iPhone takes great photos and videos but I don't vlog from a studio with consistent controlled lighting, and those qualities issues I listed do come up here and there. My friend has a iPhone 15 Pro Max and I've tried using her phone to take sample photos and videos and I do see that the warm/yellowing/washed out issue is still there although not as pronounced. I've been told I could do post processing to fix those but I like to vlog on a phone and use powerdirector or kinemaster app to edit then post. If you have done a video on this issue I'd love to watch it, and if not I hope you will consider doing a video to help some of us out who want to start vlogging with an iPhone but are still holding back. Thanks in advance for the feedback.

      thanks! I haven't really noticed the yellow/orange/washed out tones, but you could always shoot in Apple Log with the 15 Pro for a lot more color-grading potential and no risk of ruining your shots. The only problem would be storage - you'd probably need to hook it up to an external SSD but you could get very cinematic-level footage from the 15 Pro that way.

    The thing is after so long not using iphone, I finally tempted to buy the 15 series as the 2nd phone. But my deal breaker is the base model is still running in 60hz, like it would automatically feel slower than my Samsung. All the suggestion are just to take the pro series since USB C is kinda my requirement too. But damn that price is above the roof and I only get 256gb version when I wanted the next phone upgrade is to 512gb. Not to mention my love hate relationship with IOS is still here.

    The build quality is super good with the new iPhone models, but they need to fix the issues within the software. The keyboard experience is absolutely horrendous, if you have predictions, sounds, or haptics enabled. It feels like you can’t type more than a slow pace otherwise it’ll mess up. Replying notifications from the Lock Screen, the keyboard becomes almost unresponsive. Those sorts of things are unacceptable for a device which costs 1000$ or more.

Perhaps something you haven't noticed if you utilize slide to type often. That's the one workaround for it. If you do a Google search for iOS 17 keyboard lag. There's an entire thread of people that have been seeing issues since this update. Something they did with the new predictions algorithm messed the keyboard up.

I'm so glad to see someone else talk about how bad the "keyboard intuition" has become! For us long time iPhone owners, we know how great it use to be, now its crap! Its really bad. As bad as Siri.

    ProResHQ at 60fps is on my 14 pro max, and I think the 13 pro max as well. All three, the 13,14,15, requires at drive capable of 280mbs writing to shoot like the s9. But, anamorphic lenses are inexpensive on the formats available and perform exceptionally well for most venues. So, the ecosystem for the smaller sensor (13 & 14) is bigger. Moment lenses have a new t-series which covers the larger sensors on several different cameras including the 15. Why? A good rig for anamorphic lenses is thousands of bucks for a full frame. The Zeiss anamorphic lenses start at 6.5K I think. So cool to do super wide stories on my phone rig, which is gimbaled with the same gimbal as my mirrorless camera. The results rival my asp-c Sony rig.
