iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max: 1-Month Check-In

22 Comments

1. Why no mention of the sync content bug. There is a page on the apple support site describing it. I won’t go into it here. I see no mention of it on all these so called review sites.

2. Well my last phone was the 12 pro max and now I have the 15 pro max so regardless it’s a major upgrade for me and so far it’s been amazing

3. kisluxbag notwithstanding, it is my firm belief that unless you are a practitioner, the variances in appearance or the metal parts of the sack will remain invisible to you.

4. In the assistive touch, i do not have the option to put mute as an option. Anyone who knows how to solve this problem?

5. GAMECHANGERS! The new 15's blow the 11, 12, 13, and 14 out of the water. the 15 is like night and day. the 15 takes the iPhone into the 21 century!

6. No mention of signal strength or reception? Why not?

7. I have upgraded from a regular 11 to a 15 Pro Max, so the differences for me have been massive! No issued with overheating so far, exceptional battery life as well.

8. Two weeks ago, I had to replace my iPhone 12 Pro Max with the iPhone 15 Pro. Despite having large hands, the Max felt a bit too bulky, and I’m really enjoying the more compact size of the Pro. There are a few distinctions between them, but they wouldn’t make a significant difference for the typical user. I’m particularly fond of the Dynamic Island, the new side button referred to as the Action button, and the inclusion of a new USB-C charger.

9. battery drain test starting from 100% is not professional. Everyone knows each individual battery doesn't have the same capacity. so the system treat it like 100%, in fact it could be 105%, 108% or 109%. the system always display it at 100%. thats why you all realised from 100%-99% drain takes a longer than 99%-98%.

   its better to test battery drain from 90%.

10. Boy! Where do I start. I've been looking everywhere to send this story across to CNET but I couldn't get an address to do this. Here I am on YouTube hoping to rant less!
    I pre-ordered my 15 pro max on Sep 15th, got it on Oct 9th, I had already ordered a case for it which arrived just in time for the phone to be put in. My mistake here was that I did not carefully inspect the phone but 'trusting' Apple's QC, I just put my phone in the case. Until 2 weeks ago when I was taking my best friend's engagement with my glorious phone because he failed to get a proper DSLR/SLR camera for it. The phone got quite hot and I then decided to take my phone out of the case. It was quite tough to get out and silly me decided to stick my right index finger between the phone and case as a wedge and the mid to lower right edge of the phone gently cut my finger. I reported this to Apple a week after this (the next Saturday) due to my hectic weekly schedule hoping that I would get the device replaced. After 4 hours of back-and-forth call transfers, speaking to different "Senior Advisors" in Technical, Apple Care, Customer care, After Sales and Engineering, this matter has still not been solved. Engineering even came back on the matter that they want to "capture" the device and analyse it, therefore, I must send the device to them without a direct replacement at any point. Which will render me phone-less and expect me to sort that out (of course, I'm an idiot for using my finger as a wedge to get the phone to cool), Later, I was then transferred to Apple Care to start an Apple Care+ plan IF I would like to have an "Advance replacement" which simply means they will ship me a service replacement unit and I will send this in, I PRE-ORDERED A NEW PHONE and not a "Service Replacement Phone" at a cost of £8.99/month. All I want is a simple replacement without making any public rant but Apple does not want to come forward and provide me a reasonable replacement. Since Apple isn't ready to own up to this issue, I have now decided to spread the wonderful news about the phone's safety issues. Someone f*cked up and no one at Apple wants own up to this.

11. makes no sense when the pro max have 20% more battery then the iphone 15 pro of course it have more Gain. But on the Real paper it have less then all the iphones 😉 just to clearify for CNET! I love my iphon 15 pro max and im suprised about the graphics from RE Village. Using my Baby Phone Picture in Picture mod while playing using not so mutch battery, my old iphone 12 just hold both application for maybe 2 hours before i need to recharge. I use my Phone a lot and need to recharge the battery every second day, for my use its insane how long my battery hold on the Pro Max.

12. You must be a very careful person to only use that small wallet as a case.

13. its cloth…at the end of the day, it feels cheap and wont be as good as leather

14. Why wild you bend your phone back that’s just stupid

15. Coming from 12PM, I’m in love with this phone. The cameras are excellent. I can finally take decent night shots now lol I never experienced any issues so all in all it’s been a great upgrade for myself. Plus- usb c life, finally.

16. None of these tests are accurate. Check from how far they drop when it’s at 70%.

17. I'm running the newest software and my iPhone 15 pro max still gets hot after two week. I don't have instagram. If I take like 10 pictures the phone gets pretty hot.

18. Glad you dig the wallet; thanks for the love!

    There Are None Righteous / How To Be Saved

    Romans 3:10 & 23
    
    10 As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:
    
    23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;

    Luke 5:31-32 (Jesus speaking)
    
    31 And Jesus answering said unto them, They that are whole need not a physician; but they that are sick.
    
    32 I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.

    1 Peter 3:18 (The word “quicken” means “to make alive”)
    
    For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened by the Spirit:

    Romans 10:9
    
    That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.

    Acts 4:12
    
    Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.

    Ephesians 2:8-9
    
    8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
    
    9 Not of works, lest any man should boast.

    Repent of your sins or suffer the consequences. Lord Jesus died in our places personally to take the death punishment that sin deserves and then resurrected by the power of God. Believe this and sincerely repent of your sins each time you sin and you will have eternal life and nothing to fear. Fail to repent and you will end up in the Lake of Fire.

20. The woven case seems to be like a magnet for bacteria, like a pair of socks that one never changes!

21. I have the 15 Pro with a black fine woven case. The hype on those cases is way over blown. They aren't as nice as the leather but they will do what they are supposed to do. Protect your phone

22. That charging test was useless as, AFAIK, iPhones slow down charging below 20% and above 80% even if you’re using a big powerful adapter, simply to try and protect the battery, which is more easily damaged by fast charging below 20% and above 80%. You needed to have tried each phone at exactly 20%, or from fully flat. It’s the only way to compare fairly.
