Hello brotherly, please on your permission, I am just an upcoming RUclipsr right, and I do not have big iPhones yet, and this is my 3rd account I’m using to follow you, I do not have any great smartphones, I’m still making use of the iPhone 6s, but I really want to start making videos and grow. So please on your permission, I don’t know if this is the right way of doing it, but I want to be using some of your videos to create mind, are mine free to do so?
I support u😀😆😁
Maybe now u can give me your iphone15 pro max to me thenhu😅
I have a IPhone XR do you think it’s finally time to upgrade?
You switch so you can make content.
The battery life on this phone is incredible. And photos in low light are leaps and bounds better than my 13.
This should be the expectation not the surprise..
Gary, I noticed from some analyzes that the photos on the iPhone 15 plus appear to have high color saturation, have you used your iPhone 15 plus camera a lot? Does he have incredible photo quality?
@theofcds 15 series have kinda saturated look especially on skin tones they look orange or pink
that's what I'm looking for that's why I'm switching to iphone 15 plus this is the only reason why

Super cool to see a RUclipsr without an elitist agenda against ”regular” iPhones. Great video, Nick!
This is easily one of the best iPhones ever and I’ve tried almost every single one.
I love my 15 pro max but I’m a huge advocate to getting what you really need not just what you can afford, I honestly think that the pro is a niche product that people shouldn’t just get because it is the top of the line but only if you really use the creative power it holds, most people can do absolutely fine with just a regular iPhone
honestly i feel like this is the current best phone from Apple.
What’s better than the 15 pro max? The battery life ✅

I got the 15 plus instead of the 15 pro and its been really good. I enjoy the bigger screen size for youtube videos. Even though it's big it's almost the same weight as my 11 pro. I don't mind the 60hz and the camera is really amazing. Battery is out of this world I just love it.
Upgraded from 7plus matte black to 15plus black and I knew, as soon as I got my hands in this baby, I made the right choice. It was definitely worth waiting, I’m so happy and can only hope it’ll last me as much as my old 7.
Is the weight same as 7 plus or is this lighter?
I love my 15 Plus! I really appreciate this video. Everyone usually only covers the 14 pm. Took me a while to get used to the 60 hz refresh rate but I don’t even notice now. And, yes, I agree the price was a little high for the 128 gb. But I have no regrets getting it ❤
@@youtuber-cc8sx128 is plenty for me. I figured since I’m not taking pro res photos that getting the 256 gb wasn’t necessary. I only have about 4,550 photos and 370 videos. I say only because I really don’t know how that compares to others. I don’t have music on my phone because I use RUclips music (which is awesome!). I have about 90 gb of space left. 😊

Hey i have a question regarding this cause I'm gonna buy this phone very soon... Soo the question is does 15 plus feels slow cause of 60hz and big screen size??? And also tell about the screen size is it comfortable in hands??
@@naitikverma4871 No, i don’t feel it is slow, nd for us 60hz doesn’t even matter.
Umm yeah in the initial days when you use this phone, as screen size is big, it might be uncomfortable for several days, then it gets fine. Everything is great about this phone but still as iPhone 16 release is not so far, i would suggest wait for some more months to buy that, meanwhile use the you are using😊
@@naitikverma4871 Most people can't tell the difference between 60hz and 120. Unless your a tech guy you could probably tell the difference.
I think the 16 plus might be an even bigger upgrade in speed and battery life if it goes from a16 to a18
it will be 3nm A17 not pro
@@PSy84 all iPhone 16s are getting the a18 chip. Just the 16 pros are getting a slightly better a18 pro. Base 16 gets a18 bionic
If won’t be noticeable at all. Even a 13 pro A15 and iPhone 15 pro A17 will feel identical in day to day use. A18 may be 10% higher geekbench scores but that’s about it. Just like the m3 wasn’t much of an improvement over the m2.
I switched from 15 pro max to 15 plus for 2 particular reason: weight and battery life, 120 hz to 60 hz, I do noticed the difference for about a week and never look back after.

@@naitikverma4871 Yes, as for me I do noticed the from 120hz down to 60hz especially when scrolling but I get used to it after a week or so. As for the back. It’s very comfortable I prefer 15plus and battery life is impressive.
I honestly don’t understand the obsession with 120 hz. I mean I have that on my monitor for gaming and my tv but for everything else 60 hz is fine.
People like you are the reason companies get away with cheating out on features. There’s a drastic difference between 60 hertz and 120 hertz. 120 hertz should be standard on all iPhones. Especially considering they start at like $800.
@@lefthanded5473 lmao, you must be under 30
Must of been a bad device as my 15 pro max has never got hot once, not even after hours of use
As someone else here said - nobody needs 120Hz to scroll through social media on a tiny phone screen. I wonder would the average person rather have a better battery life.
@@dazauto107 I got a 15 pro last month and I will admit.. once you get used to it older 60hz screens look dated and way less smooth

my battery on my 15 plus takes 2 days before it goes to 30% and sad to say the 16 plus variant will be last plus of its kind.
Solid phone. Battery life is phenomenal, cameras are out of this world. Honestly would trade it for anything
I enjoy my 15plus everyday... really a good piece of hardware

Coming from the iPhone 11 base model, l think this will be a great upgrade for me. I like big screen phones but not bulky ones.
Watching this from the 15 Plus. I have no regrets!
Lack of 90/120Hz display is a deal breaker. Can't go back to 60 after getting used to 120 IMO.
I noticed it a lot the first week, but after a week it felt normal.
Brother I literally use a 240 Hz monitor and have ZERO issues using a 60 Hz screen. Tf you mean “can’t go back to 60 after getting used to 120?”
@@HyperionZerofr lol
@@HyperionZero Hilarious part is most people apart from a very VERY small group couldn't tell you what they're actually looking at without a label. Is it 120Hz? 240? 60? There comes a point of diminishing returns.

I have iPhone 15 and love this phone. Higher refresh rate I don’t care because iOS runs perfect and smooth and I get great battery life
Do you hace 15 regular or plus?
Weight!! Finally someone mentions it, moved to 14 pro after holding my wife’s 14pm. Very tempted to move to this….
Bought this phone as soon as it came out. Very happy with it. Got it in the black. Perfect for my needs. Reminds me of the iPhone 7 plus.
512gb?
Is the weight lighter than 7 plus or is it the same?
Very close, but it is a thicker phone so that is a factor.
@@douglasvalerioti8764 Thank you. I guess then it is not really for me as I find the 7 plus very heavy to use.
It is still very light iPhone. You should go into the store to hold it. By all standards it’s a light weight phone.
Thanks for this video, I was thinking about switching to the iPhone 15 Plus - I appreciate this video helping me decide.
Great iPhone to get for average users that love big displays 👍🏻
I Downsized from a Pro Max to a Pro. Why be cause it’s feels and fits better in my hands and pockets! I have a 256GB pro
I’m convinced switching from an SE to a 15 Plus next week
Ayo man can you tell me your experience?
@@Pipps. I’m loving it! Best decision i made, the battery life was incredibly annoying to deal with on the SE. The battery life was definitely one of the main selling points for me, but things like better camera, and new features has been an added bonus. I’d recommend especially if you have an SE
@@mileskobina345 thanks bro. Probably getting the 15 plus by next month jumping over from se 2020.

This is my first iphone and it’s perfect. I see no reason to get the pros (but i do want great battery) so the 15 plus is enough :)
I did the same. Upgraded from my 12 Pro Max to a 15 Pro - just to change the form factor. Didn’t like the smaller form factor and decided to shift to a 15 Plus.
Haven’t looked back since. Love the 15 Plus in black and feel for all the daily video and photo needs it’s more than sufficient.

Going for this one next month. Thank You my man!
getting ready to get it soon

I don’t care about the promotion I love the big battery this baby has (the iPhone 15 plus) and it feels way better than an iPhone 14 pro Max
I’ve got an iPhone 15 and I went to it from an iPhone 13 Pro. At first it bothered me going back to 60hz, I found it sent my eyes funny but I’ve gotten used to it now. I also don’t find that the photos take very well. You take a photo and it either doesn’t focus on what you want it to or it just does it badly. I find you need to hold the phone far away and then take the photo and crop it. I didn’t have to do that on the 13 pro… I dunno, it’s kinda love hate for me as I prefer the lightness of the phone and I like the camera area being smaller on the back because I always used to end up touching one of the 3 on the 13 pro. 😂
As one of the main reasons mentioned was amazing black finish of the back, but the phone is in the case 🙂
Thinking about changing my 14Pro for daily battery and useful life, it has dropped exaggeratedly in less than 2 months. I think that 15plus would be the ideal…
My wife and I just got a pair of these phones (switched from Android) and we love them! 👍🏾👍🏾
same thought man, im using 15plus right now and its a perfect phone for me
Really, I would love to only get the Regular/Plus however the 60Hz display is a big trade off for me.
I said it before and I'll say it again, the iPhone 15 Plus is the one I'd choose if I was an iPhone person. This is along with the 8 Plus as well as the iPhone 13 Pro Max are the three best phones Apple has ever made, in my opinion.
I had the 13 pro max and returned it within a week then waited for 14 pro max which i was not disappointed
You can certainly switch to whatever you want cause you're literally surrounded by phones. But for an average user, paying that much money for a 60hz device like that is kind of a joke imo.Quite a few number of phones out there cheaper than that with a higher refresh rate and almost or even better performance, let's not kid ourselves.
Unless you’re a hardcore mobile gamer, a 120+ Hz display is unnecessary. For the average person, a 60hz display is perfectly fine. I do agree that the iPhone 15/15 Plus is overpriced, though.
Average user can’t tell the difference, let’s not kid ourselves.
Facts! I cannot go back to 60 hertz. I wish the Plus has 120 hertz with pro motion. I would have got the pink one.
@@killacardec8337yes, the average user will notice, specially at that price. Stop justifying bad moves. The 13 pro(almost 3 year IPhone) is a better buy than 15 plus.
say that a phone is valid or not only based on its refresh rate it's, at least, inaccurate
Just bought 15 plus 2 days ago . contemplating between that or 15 pro . Then i thought , i only need bigger battery . thats it
Is it true that the 15 plus have better battery performance than the 15 pro max?
Messed around with one in best buy recently. Looks great, but i just cant handle that 60hz screen. It's very noticable from my Z flip 5 which looks MUCH smoother.
Here to see what’s different about my old phone. I’ve had an 11 pro max forever, and just switched carriers and got an upgrade. Loving it so far, just don’t know what all is new with iPhone.
Nick brotherly, you have started again this year 😂
I’ve thought pro-motion has been overrated for a bit now. It kills your battery faster, and I barely see a difference when swiping around. I have the pro max and I ended up turning off pro-motion. It has helped my battery life. When I upgrade, I’m probably just going to go with the Plus model, and not the pro max.
Commenting from my iPhone 15 plus 😊
great vid. currently using base model 13. I would choose base 15 plus...
I went from 13 mini to regular iPhone 15 and couldn’t be happier
This is of course not the best iPhone that is out now. But it probably is the best deal of an iPhone today. The only bad thing is the refresh rate but if the 15 Plus would have that 120hz then the battery could be a bit worse. Otherwise it is a very solid iPhone and the regular 15 models are almost perfect as the base iPhones.
A 60hz display is just fine for the average person. Unless you’re a mobile gamer, a 120hz display is excessive.
@@TiredMikeenot at all, specially at that price. If you’re used to 60hz, it’ll be fine but if you’re used to the pros and max, then no, you won’t be fine. The only advantage the 15 plus has over the 14PM and 15PM is the battery life and maybe how light the device is in comparison.
@@Chris_x_ Yes, it's overpriced but I stand by my original comment. I have an S22 and after using it on adaptive refresh for a while, I changed it to 'standard' which is fixed at 60hz. I'm not a mobile gamer so 120hz is unnecessary; it just drains battery faster without any meaningful difference in daily use. Like I said, unless you play a lot of mobile games, a 60hz display is perfectly fine.
@@TiredMikee I don't play games on my phone and i do like and notice the smoothness. is it a deal breaker? for me no but if you're paying over 800 bucks for a phone, it needs to have what even a budget phone has. Refresh rate needs to be included.
@@TiredMikee 60hz is unusable on android. I don’t mind the 60hz on my 14PM…. But 120 on android feels better than 120 on iOS
I love your videos. I have the iPhone 15 but I’m thinking about also getting the iPhone 15 plus. ❤
At this point I'd say wait for the 16 Plus as it will have better support for the new direction Apple is going, but between the those 2, the 15 Plus takes the win for the much longer battery life!
Great video Nick 👏🏻
Glad you enjoyed it
Battery life and lightness are two great reasons. The key issue with the Pro Max is that it’s so incredibly heavy. It feels like a brick in the hand. With a case it also feels very thick. The Pro Max feels just weirdly heavy, not even like a phone, just an iron brick, compared to any other phone out there. The 15 Plus meanwhile is light and thin, and that battery is just amazing.
I can’t do without 120 hertz. If the iPhone plus had 120 hertz refresh rate I would have DEFINITELY got the pink one.
You won’t feel the difference, trust me…I had same idea, but I was wrong, it feels as smooth as pro
Picked this up last week….. still exploring
The matte black back is my favorite. Im using my 15 plus more than my 15 pro max. Not gonna lie…
Nice review!
Thank you! Cheers!
Could you comment more on what issues you had with the eSIM? I’m having issues as well
This is a low budget iPhone pro
Fits all my pro needs, especially the long duration battery charge (more important than macro or refresh rate)
I know it sounds kind of a bad take, but high refresh rate doesn't really matter unless you play games competitively which is on a PC, no normal human needs to scroll through UI at 120hz, 60hz is well enough and also saves battery.
Nah man, that is common sense! Unfortunately, common sense is not that common. 😂
Yeah people are acting like 60hz is equivalent of 480p.
You are wrong. I don't play games yet when I use a 60hz phone vs a 120hz the 60hz feels laggy. 120hz makes the phone smoother , why did Apple include it in the pro and pro max then ?
Your review videos have been pretty good. Been thinking of getting a 15 plus lately since can’t afford the pro max and idk if I can do the 6.1 inch since I’m used to the 6.5 inch on my 11 pro max. Seems my 11 pro max is getting very old that even a 15 plus is an upgrade or does everything my current phone can do lol
Man, you're making me want to be curious and ditch my 15 Pro and get the 15 Plus so bad!
That's a tough call, maybe we will make a comparison on that
I am seriously thinking something similar, ditching my 15 pro max for the 15 plus.
Just got a 15 plus I love it
I love this phone your video on it is the reason i got it
That’s what I wanted too if it didn’t have dinosaur age 60hz. Sadly, I had to go with the 15 Max instead
Love that his wife’s playlist is all Karol G she’s a real one
I learned some things great video
Glad to hear it!
The only thing that's stopping me buying this compared to the 15 pro is the refresh rate. Is the 15pro more "future proof " because of the refresh rate... I dont play games on the phone so from that perspective its not an issue
Best battery life I ever got as a ex Android user. 7h 41mins from 80 to 30 is insane
Have to disagree. I returned mine after a week, just too big and bulky with case. And weight is still a factor. I got the 15 and loving it. The 6.1 screen is the sweet spot for me.
thank you, I was on the fence
RUclips’s stupid algorithm unsubscribed me from your channel I think, because I had to RE-Subscribe.
I’m the opposite, coming from the Regular Model iPhones to the 15 Pro Max this year (my last phone was the 13) and I just wanted to try the Pro for a change and explore its extra features (mostly in the camera) anyway. The Regular 15, 15 Plus still are great phones in their own right and still offer a lot!
Yeah RUclips acts weird like that sometimes! Glad you re-subscribed
Do you think the Pro you went to justifies the extra cost?
I agree the base 15 and 15 Plus are awesome for regular users.
I agree my camera Is clear
I have a Z fold 5 and the weight is killing me. Well, I saw a deal on an iPhone 12. Super cheap and a bit old, but what a difference in weight in my hand. I was a little concerned with the 64gb storage, but I barely have half of it filled. For what Im actually doing with my phone anymore, this is ok. Its nice not carrying a heavy brick in my hand.
Im thinking the SAME thing. Gonna wait til the 16 drops and Best Buy sells the 15's unlocked AND a trade in.
I currently have iPhone 11 and thinking about upgrading to iPhone 15 Plus at the end of the year for my birthday-
Just went from my 13 PM to 15 PM but i also considered the normal 15 Plus. All are great phones and i think we are far beyond to complain about anything besides 60Hz for 1000$ pricetag.
But i also use and love my iPad Mini 6 (60Hz) and its totally fine.
why on earth would you get rid of the best battery life phone ever.
One thing I do not like about the base models of the 15 is the 60Hz display. Even some androids that cost less than half the price of the 15 have more than 60Hz
I said when the 15 lineup first came out they were the better value iPhones in the 15 series. To me, there isn't much incentives to pay more and get the pro models. If they ever put 90 hertz or Pro-motion in the base iPhones then you basically are much better off paying less and getting a regular or Plus model. The Plus especially is great for the big screen and best battery life too.
I have one and its
Perfect!!
Me too and I agree
The thing that I don’t like about the base iPhone 15 is that they don’t have 120 Hz.
Because if they had then I wouldn’t care about the pro models
I switch from a 14 pro max to a 15 plus and dont see any différence for now except in few case with the camera
Just ordered this. Traded in my 13 pro max
If you want the best iPhone 15 just get the 15+
I have the same phone and colour and i love it🔥
iPhone 15 pro For me ✊🏽
When you said you had a problem with eSIM on the 15 PM, did it have anything to do with switching between 2 devices for testing like you might do if you had a physical SIM card, and the carrier black listed it?
No not with the switching there was some random esim on there so I had to reset the phone and remove it and then I was able to setup again. I haven’t gone back yet because I been enjoying this 15 Plus though mostly for its lighter weight
I'm getting it this week
How is it, have u had any problems?
Totally agree, most reviewers don’t make a big enough deal about the WEIGHT and focus too much on pro motion which is barely noticeable. My 15 Pro is even too heavy and sort of wish I got the 15.
Yeah the weight makes a huge difference especially at this size thanks for sharing your feedback! The smaller 15 is a feather 🪶
my sister has 15 plus, and it's great.
60 hz on a small mobile device tbh is not a factor, companies make too much out of this it’s bearly noticeable, this refresh rate is more a factor on big oled and Qled tv panels where there is 4K content and gaming, this is where it’s more applicable, not a small device like a phone
the iphone 15 pro max/plus is pretty big but it looks like normal sized on your hands. how tall are you?
I would have gone for the 15 plus but coming from a Pixel 7 Pro with a 120Hz refresh rate, the difference is just too jarring. I'll go for the Pro Max.
Hey Nick, nice video, how did add that smiley face next to the clock?
Focus Mode
hey Nick! Would you get 15 plus or 14 plus ? Does dynamic island hinder when watching videos? Does 15 plus feel lighter than 14 plus? I don’t like dynamic island that much so it’s making me pick
Considering a 16 pro max. Hoping it'll be as good as this base 15 model.
I chose 14 pro over 15 plus over the reason being 5’10 and being short height guy with small hands I prefer small phones over big phones that need 2 hands to use.
