@@JonAdamsTechok so here's everything I've heard from others: the iPhone 15 pro overheats easily, even after the update the performance was decreased and it's body is really easy to break, is that all true? And should I buy it new or refurbished from third party websites? I just want to "confirm" all these "major issues" are fixed/true or not.
@@GamereY0T I haven't had any of those issues and no one I know personally has said anything about that to me, so I can only say what I've heard. You would be fine to buy refurbished, try the phone for a few days and if you don't like it return it. Apples return policy rules
@@marvinnovotny9126 i'll see, if the third party website seller has a return policy and the phone doesn't overheat i'll go 15 pro, otherwise i'll just take the 16.
You don’t understand how helpful this video has been for me. I’ve been considering between these two phones and they are the two closer options than many others would actually think. You’re so much more comprehensive and down to the point than other tech reviewers and I’m really glad to get the reassurance you gave for the 15 Pro. Keep it up man and I really hope to see you up there with the other big tech reviewers.
Bro I have a 15 pro since launch , just buy it I promise you’ll love it it’s incredibly fast and smoother with 120hz refresh rate , you will get Apple intelligence on it and you’ll have triple cameras, plus it has much thinner bezels than the 16 , for software support it will last just like the 16 or maybe more.
I'm not so sure, unless your a gamer you don't need 120. And from what I've seen the pro motion displays on the 16 pro run at 80 or less in normal usage to save battery.
I had an iPhone 11 (regular model) and I just bought the iPhone 15 Pro mainly because of the 120 hrtz screen and better camera also because I knew that I would never use that new camera button thing on the 16. But man the difference compared to my previous 11 is huge, I feel like I’m rediscovering what’s a smartphone 😂
hi in india the new 16 costs about 75000 which is 890 dollars and the iphone 15 pro is on sale for 95000 which is 1130 dollars which one should i buy or s23 ultra at 890
@@JonAdamsTechI choose the Blue Titanium color, that’s also why I preferred the 15 pro version because I’m not a big fan of the 16 pro new color but that’s more a personal taste

No mention of the battery life? The big thing about the 16 is the improved battery life over the 15 pro which has a dodgy battery life. And a good battery life is a make-or-break for a lot of shoppers out there.

I am following you from Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦 I am very happy to have people like you, the beautiful and short explanation, the high quality of the video I decided, I will buy an iPhone 15 Pro ❤❤❤❤
I’m an uber and Lyft driver. Will the precision dual-frequency gps feature of the Pro work for me especially if I’m around buildings? Is the feature app/software independent ?
I currently have a crappy android. I'm thinking of upgrading to an iphone 16. Should I shed out a lil extra and go for the 15 pro or stick with the base 16?
Probably the biggest difference maker with the camera module (If I’m correct) is that the 16 has a new lossless file format to where it eliminates the artificial image sharpening that makes every photo and video look grainy/noisy. Huge selling point for a lazy photographer/videographer like me.
Thank you for your honesty. I have a iPhone 12, and I am not happy with the camera. So Black Friday is Nov 25th, already checked out iPhone 15pro which I am interested in, but he says the 16 is the same price as the 15 right now. I hate it when they try and push you to a “better product”. So I will be bringing a male friend with me, to make sure all goes well! Again, thanks for this video, I really appreciate it!
Great video. Last month I was in for a new iPhone. The iPhone 16 was announced but I was also looking at the iPhone 15 Pro. I did some research into the differences between these two iPhone models. I was astonished by the colors of the new 16. But I thought buying an iPhone only for its color wouldn’t be a great decision. After a week I had made my mind up and decided to buy the iPhone 15 Pro. Better cameras (the 16 actually doesn’t utilize optical zoom, it just cropping the image), faster usb c port (15 Pro has usb c 3.1 gen 2, iPhone 16 uses usb c 2.0 with slow data transfer), titanium body instead of aluminum, better display (120Hz Pro Motion), always on display, iPhone 15 Pro also supports Apple Intelligence (iPhone 15 and older do not support Apple Intelligence. Only iPhone 15 Pro/Pro Max and iPhone 16/16 Plus, iPhone 16 Pro/Pro Max), capable of shooting ProRes video with ACES and also log video, the price: I’ve payed less than a new iPhone 16 entry level would cost me, and a lot more. It’s really worth its price this iPhone 15 Pro. Sure, it doesn’t have the new camera button, but you can use the action button on iPhone 15 Pro to use it as a camera button, so.. I’ve subscribed to your channel mate. Keep up the good work and have a nice day.
@@JonAdamsTech Thank you for your kind words! Happy to be a member now. I agree about the camera button on iPhone 16 Pro. It doesn’t add any value to the 16 Pro compared to the iPhone 15 Pro. Keep up the great work!
Does the iPhone 15 Pro heat faster than the base 16 model? And when it comes to the front camera, I’ve heard that the iPhone 15 Pro has a Grayish and Grainy output. comparing it to the base 16 iPhone which is better?
Ik heb dit week de iPhone 16 gehaald. Ik heb er geen spijt van omdat de reguliere model al erg in de buurt van de ‘pro’ komt met z’n dynamic island, actieknop en cameraknop. Ja, er is geen 3e camera of 120hz scherm… maar is dat erg? 120hz merk ik niet hoor. PS: Ik kom van de iPhone 13. En ik twijfelde enorm tussen de 15 pro en 16. Uiteindelijk de 15 pro geannuleerd en 16 gehaald. ‘Tis idd wat goedkoper en intern issie best goed
Quick question with the 15 pro discounted on amazon for the certified renewed an is almost 99 dollars lesser than the brand new 16 , what's your take for a person that just needs a go to go ,smooth and basic phone that has a good logivity and resell value here between the iphone 16 and the iphone 15 pro?
@JonAdamsTech nah I'm not really picky on the battery side like I'm coming from a Samsung s23 and the battery was relatively average ,from my research I might get 60-70percent of what I got if I go with the 15 pro but one con is the refub I tend to stand in between since the battery tends to vary and reduce on performance and all since it was refurb I don't know if I'm right or wrong cause that's what holding back on either getting the 15pro or the 16 ATM,pls do give me your thought 😉
i have an iphone 13 but battery bulle up But the battery swollen and it's almost exploded but that not happened yet so i have to change but i'm confused with these too, n which one i chose ? i care bout (smooth+camera+battry+lnoge life haha :)) i think about 15pro, but what u think?!
Completely agreed re:refresh rate. I'm frankly confused by the sheer amount of complaining about 60Hz. Completely agreed re:telephoto lens. I'd even go as far as to say the wideangle lens is about as useless, so I'm weirdly excited for next year's iPhone Air ditching both and only keeping the main one. Also, this lefty thanks you for the camera button tip!
The Camera Control button is, in my opinion, the worst feature this year. It is terribly fiddly and awkward to use. It seems totally superfluous and unnecessary. And the biggest downside? It actually *slows* down your picture-taking task! It's much faster just to use the on-screen controls. This button was ill-conceived. Instead of *removing* buttons from the iPhone, Apple decided to *add* new buttons such as the Action button and the Camera Control button. Steve Jobs must be spinning in his grave like a lathe. I sincerely hope they remove this feature in the next iteration of the iPhone (17 or 18) after users express their displeasure.
Weight and fingerprints are top considerations for me. I got the 16. The camera control button comes with a ZOOM of up to 10x which makes up for the absence of a telephoto lens, doesn’t it? And yes, an extra year of security updates too. That said, I dislike the camera control button because most cases come with cutouts and it doesn’t feel nice to wrap my fingers around a cutout. The dynamic island stinks on both phones. Wouldn’t the phone look a whole lot better without that very large pill?
Hello Jon … need your advice very badly … should I upgrade to IPhone 16 Pro from IPhone 15 considering the Camera and AI features in the long run ??? Or, should I just wait until iPhone 17 comes out ???
I'm left handed as well, that sounds pretty good! The fact that you have to use the camera button with your right hand in landscape mode doesn't really bother me, it's just like with an actual camera where the shutter button is on the right. We just have to adapt, I'm sure we get used to it lol
Awesome comparison! Though still can't choose between 15 pro and 16 base model but I need a phone urgently! Please, advice! (Not obsessed with camera features)
I am thinking of switching from my 15 Pro to the 16 classic.. because of the very bad battery quality.. I got this phone for 13 months now and only 330 charging cycles but it has dropped down to 88% maximum capacity.. that's a bummer to me. I always use 60 hz refresh rate to get more battery life but still it doesn't do it for me anymore.. I have to charge every day now. or I just spent some hundred bucks for a battery replacement repair. not sure yet :)
@ overall usage time 5-6h screen on time.. so no :) it does not last a day. i dont know what they have done to those 15 model batteries. thats why iam not sure about the repair service.
Even if u're left handed (I’m too), the camera button makes it feel like you have a shooter, and in every camera, the shutter button is on the right side. It shouldn’t be a problem.
I think the new chip is more frugal with respect to battery. But as much as to choose the non pro. I think it’s mostly the price that decides the pick.
Just upgraded my 14 pro to the 16 pro, mainly because, as a photographer, shooting in raw format is helpful (of course, I don't need to shoot in raw all the time, the regular camera on the 15/16 is just as good). I'm just hoping the regular models in future will go to 120Hz.
Thanks mate! My plan was buying the 15 (because of the good price now) but I'm still in doubt because of the better camera of the 15 pro, as well as the 120 hz, usb-c that can connect directly to a hard drive and the ability to get apple intelligence. What would you recommend?
Finally a review that really gets to the meat and potatoes of the devices. So I have the S23 Ultra at the moment, have been a Samsung user for quiet a while. I have had two iPhones in the past, the 8 Plus, and the 11 Pro, I left the iPhone because I wanted to be able to move my apps around to where I wanted them. Couldn't do it at the time, but now you can. I wish they would add an app tray like on Android, but I can deal without that. I am dumping Samsung because they have hard doubled down on the darn curved edge screen! I have spent over $200 on screen protectors, and you CANNOT get a screen protector that will stay on those stupid curved edges. In all honesty, this is why I'm going back to iPhone, so I came here to make my mind up about either the 15 Pro, or the 16. And I'm almost there, leaning towards the 15 Pro, just got to watch some more camera comparison videos. I take a lot of photos, and I take them all with my phone, so I want to get the best photos and bang for the money. Also, the other thing that Apple has figured out is the OS and the apps which run on it, because they just work well together. Samsung has come a long ways, but you still get those apps that just do not run well on Android, I am guessing because they are ports from IOS, so that is also a huge plus.
Thanks for the video. I am so confused. I am on a 12 mini and want to make an upgrade. iPhone 15 pro and iPhone 16 are in my budget. Now my pro owner friends want me to go for pro but my 15 plus or 15 owner friends recommend me the 16 for battery. Apparently 15 pro is not good battery wise?
I have the 15 pro max … should I not be upgrading this year? I love the colors of the 16 this year. I’m not liking the natural titanium I chose last year .
I need to upgrade from the regular 11. I have the chance to get the 15Pro 70€ cheaper than the regular 16. Most important things to me are the camera and the battery. Would you buy the 16 or the 15Pro?
im used to my 60hz screen on my iphone 11 so i dont think i will need 120hz, also i have small hands so maybe the camera button will be more handy for me when using it vertically?
@@BabeiIlie nice nitpicking however, it does make a difference not just taller its less wider as well when compared on top of each other. So the form factor while holding the phone is better.
As an iPhone 8 plus user, I wanna upgrade to 15 pro or 16/16pro, I am debating between those because of the camera (I know It's a big jump from 8 to newer models ) so is it worth considering the 16 pro or should I just buy the 15 pro ...?
I've been confused between this two for a gift for my brother but,After watching this video i order a iphone 15 pro natural titanium. Thank you it was so helpful ❤
Hey, I'm an android user and lookin to get an IOS I'm confused between 15 pro and regular 16, which one should I get? Would be getting 256 gb variant though😄
@@JonAdamsTech thanks for your reply man❤️🇳🇵 But I'm also confused about going with pro max as the battery and other camera options are also better and is the extra price worth it? Would it be worth it to push my budget a little bit up or the pro's battery is enough for the day??
I am also in the same Situation, currently i use samsung s23 but i want to use an iphone now. Which one should I buy? 16 pro with better battery and newer device Or 15 pro with slighty worse camera and Battery, but about 160 Euros cheaper
Does anybody ever exp using 15 pro and 16 base model in real life? Can share the screen on time for both phones? Just want to check either the battery life of 16 base really worth to ditch all pro features on ip15 pro
@ noted on that. I wouldn’t mind to care for extra 1-2h screen on time on ip16 base. But if it more than that (3-4h), that will be a plus point for 16base.

@@JonAdamsTech any specific date ?
Hi Jon, look, you really hit the point and make things easy to decide. thanks for the video which was really helpful.
Greetings from Egypt.
Thanks for checking out the video!
Which one do you think is more successful just for family photos? 16 or 15 pro?
They’re both so solid for it. I’d go pro because I like having that ultra wide angle lens
@@JonAdamsTech thank you for replying
Hello! I have the iPhone XS and i need a model with better camera and battery life. Which one do you recommend? Thank you!
Did you check out the video?
I’m on 13 pro max what should I go for, I’m planning to buy a new one but which one tho
Do you the feel the need to?
Personally I love the 16
But if I had to chose still I’d prob go with the 15 pro for the screen

Ehy bro, nice video!
Did you get a overheating issues with 15 Pro?
I got chu bro I got chu!!! ruclips.net/video/QCNxD00i5Bo/видео.htmlsi=K2VMOODmvbuU9K2X
Probably the biggest difference maker with the camera module (If I’m correct) is that the 16 has a new lossless file format to where it eliminates the artificial image sharpening that makes every photo and video look grainy/noisy. Huge selling point for a lazy photographer/videographer like me.
Whats the use if 15 pro is out of stock everywhere?
Is it out of stock for you?!
Thank you for your honesty. I have a iPhone 12, and I am not happy with the camera. So Black Friday is Nov 25th, already checked out iPhone 15pro which I am interested in, but he says the 16 is the same price as the 15 right now. I hate it when they try and push you to a “better product”. So I will be bringing a male friend with me, to make sure all goes well! Again, thanks for this video, I really appreciate it!
I personally would go for the 15 pro but either phone is great so good luck!
Great video. Last month I was in for a new iPhone. The iPhone 16 was announced but I was also looking at the iPhone 15 Pro. I did some research into the differences between these two iPhone models. I was astonished by the colors of the new 16. But I thought buying an iPhone only for its color wouldn’t be a great decision. After a week I had made my mind up and decided to buy the iPhone 15 Pro. Better cameras (the 16 actually doesn’t utilize optical zoom, it just cropping the image), faster usb c port (15 Pro has usb c 3.1 gen 2, iPhone 16 uses usb c 2.0 with slow data transfer), titanium body instead of aluminum, better display (120Hz Pro Motion), always on display, iPhone 15 Pro also supports Apple Intelligence (iPhone 15 and older do not support Apple Intelligence. Only iPhone 15 Pro/Pro Max and iPhone 16/16 Plus, iPhone 16 Pro/Pro Max), capable of shooting ProRes video with ACES and also log video, the price: I’ve payed less than a new iPhone 16 entry level would cost me, and a lot more. It’s really worth its price this iPhone 15 Pro. Sure, it doesn’t have the new camera button, but you can use the action button on iPhone 15 Pro to use it as a camera button, so.. I’ve subscribed to your channel mate. Keep up the good work and have a nice day.
Hey I appreciate the sub! And yeah man that camera button is no reason to upgrade at all
@@JonAdamsTech Thank you for your kind words! Happy to be a member now. I agree about the camera button on iPhone 16 Pro. It doesn’t add any value to the 16 Pro compared to the iPhone 15 Pro. Keep up the great work!
@@emiel333 thanks man, will do!
Does the iPhone 15 Pro heat faster than the base 16 model?
And when it comes to the front camera, I’ve heard that the iPhone 15 Pro has a Grayish and Grainy output. comparing it to the base 16 iPhone which is better?
I haven’t had either of those issues.
Here in canada the 16pro max for 256gb is 1,749$ and the 16 starts at 1,129$ for 128gb and the 16plus 128gb is 1,279$ .wich one to buy ?
which one do you want?
Great review, really helped.
Hey thanks!
So here in the NL, the iPhone 16 is around 50-100 euros cheaper than the iPhone 15 pro. Would you still go for the 15 pro?
I would
Ik heb dit week de iPhone 16 gehaald. Ik heb er geen spijt van omdat de reguliere model al erg in de buurt van de ‘pro’ komt met z’n dynamic island, actieknop en cameraknop. Ja, er is geen 3e camera of 120hz scherm… maar is dat erg? 120hz merk ik niet hoor.
PS: Ik kom van de iPhone 13. En ik twijfelde enorm tussen de 15 pro en 16. Uiteindelijk de 15 pro geannuleerd en 16 gehaald. ‘Tis idd wat goedkoper en intern issie best goed
@highinanothertime7154
What is the experience of today with iphone 16
Quick question with the 15 pro discounted on amazon for the certified renewed an is almost 99 dollars lesser than the brand new 16 , what's your take for a person that just needs a go to go ,smooth and basic phone that has a good logivity and resell value here between the iphone 16 and the iphone 15 pro?
I’d still go pro cause it’s the better phone but the 16 does have a better battery life if that’s a major concern of yours
@JonAdamsTech nah I'm not really picky on the battery side like I'm coming from a Samsung s23 and the battery was relatively average ,from my research I might get 60-70percent of what I got if I go with the 15 pro but one con is the refub I tend to stand in between since the battery tends to vary and reduce on performance and all since it was refurb I don't know if I'm right or wrong cause that's what holding back on either getting the 15pro or the 16 ATM,pls do give me your thought 😉
Nah bro if u have a s23 just get the Iphone 15 pro
@surajitdey4305 that would be me getting it renewed or certified refurbished?
15 pro vs 16 plus. Which one is better for non-gaming?
I like the pro model
i have an iphone 13 but battery bulle up But the battery swollen and it's almost exploded but that not happened yet so i have to change but i'm confused with these too, n which one i chose ? i care bout (smooth+camera+battry+lnoge life haha :)) i think about 15pro, but what u think?!
I think either would do well. 15 is awesome. You should 100% get rid of that phone though if the battery is swollen, crap is dangerous man!
Excellent! Thanks for sharing!
Yep!
Completely agreed re:refresh rate. I'm frankly confused by the sheer amount of complaining about 60Hz.
Completely agreed re:telephoto lens. I'd even go as far as to say the wideangle lens is about as useless, so I'm weirdly excited for next year's iPhone Air ditching both and only keeping the main one.
Also, this lefty thanks you for the camera button tip!
The Camera Control button is, in my opinion, the worst feature this year. It is terribly fiddly and awkward to use. It seems totally superfluous and unnecessary. And the biggest downside? It actually *slows* down your picture-taking task! It's much faster just to use the on-screen controls.
This button was ill-conceived. Instead of *removing* buttons from the iPhone, Apple decided to *add* new buttons such as the Action button and the Camera Control button. Steve Jobs must be spinning in his grave like a lathe.
I sincerely hope they remove this feature in the next iteration of the iPhone (17 or 18) after users express their displeasure.
Yeah one week later ive hit that dang thing so many time's its annoying
Weight and fingerprints are top considerations for me. I got the 16. The camera control button comes with a ZOOM of up to 10x which makes up for the absence of a telephoto lens, doesn’t it? And yes, an extra year of security updates too. That said, I dislike the camera control button because most cases come with cutouts and it doesn’t feel nice to wrap my fingers around a cutout. The dynamic island stinks on both phones. Wouldn’t the phone look a whole lot better without that very large pill?
YEah I agree, having a cut out on phone cases for the camera button is mad annoying. I actually like the dynamic island though, I find it useful
Hello Jon … need your advice very badly … should I upgrade to IPhone 16 Pro from IPhone 15 considering the Camera and AI features in the long run ??? Or, should I just wait until iPhone 17 comes out ???
Personally i'd wait but it's your money so you do what you want to do. Is budget a big factor for you?
I'm left handed as well, that sounds pretty good! The fact that you have to use the camera button with your right hand in landscape mode doesn't really bother me, it's just like with an actual camera where the shutter button is on the right. We just have to adapt, I'm sure we get used to it lol
Left handers rise up!
How is the battery life for the 16?
Really stinkin darn tootin good
Awesome comparison! Though still can't choose between 15 pro and 16 base model but I need a phone urgently! Please, advice! (Not obsessed with camera features)
I’d still go pro!
Would you go for a £750 refurbished iPhone 15 pro excellent condition or £899 for brand new iPhone 15 pro.
As long as I got the best deal, I’m chilling.
I don’t mind refurbished devices as long as there’s a return period
A clear, detailed and entertaining video. Subscribed. I bought an iPhone 16, but I'm on the fence for switching it for a 15 pro.
Thanks! And I’d personally rock the 15 pro between those two
Great review!!!😮😊
Hey thanks!
Where can I buy the 15 pro? Looks like apple is no longer selling it.
Here’s a good one amzn.to/3NGy16V
Hey if i buy a refurbished iphone 15 pro from reebelo will it be good? Like the overheat issue can be a headache?
Check out my recent video on that!
I am thinking of switching from my 15 Pro to the 16 classic.. because of the very bad battery quality.. I got this phone for 13 months now and only 330 charging cycles but it has dropped down to 88% maximum capacity.. that's a bummer to me. I always use 60 hz refresh rate to get more battery life but still it doesn't do it for me anymore.. I have to charge every day now. or I just spent some hundred bucks for a battery replacement repair. not sure yet :)
So the battery doesn’t last a full day? I mean the 16 has insane battery life but a replacement battery is pretty cheap.
@ overall usage time 5-6h screen on time.. so no :) it does not last a day. i dont know what they have done to those 15 model batteries.
thats why iam not sure about the repair service.
Even if u're left handed (I’m too), the camera button makes it feel like you have a shooter, and in every camera, the shutter button is on the right side. It shouldn’t be a problem.
Truuuu
Just upgraded from iPhone 7 to the 15 Pro, I’m ready to step back into the modern era lol.
Haha that’s wild! Good on you though for not just filling up a landfill!
Bout to do the same lol...
I've been using an iPhone 12 since release. Finally getting an iPhone 16 as my 12 is pretty beat up!
That’s great! It’s a solid tool for the job!
Many people said that 15 pro has a very bad battery is that true?
No it’s fine
You guys i currently have an redmi note 9 im about to upgrade to iPhone should i go to the 15 pro or the 16 pls help me😅
15 pro!
@@JonAdamsTech thanks for the feedback my friend!!!
i’m torn between 15 pro max or 16 plus. What would you recommend, esp. battery wise?
I think the new chip is more frugal with respect to battery. But as much as to choose the non pro. I think it’s mostly the price that decides the pick.
16 has better battery but 15 pro is better all around in my opinion
After watching this video finally ordered the 15pro!!Thank you for the review♥️
Yep, glad it was helpful! What color did you get?
If i have the iphone 11 and idk which one to chose
iphone 15 pro or 16 ? :(
I had the 11 too and now the 16 Pro Max. I recommend skipping the 15 and going right for the 16. You won’t be disappointed!
I’d go with the 15 pro, it rules
@@JonAdamsTechit’s off the apple market now sadly
Just upgraded my 14 pro to the 16 pro, mainly because, as a photographer, shooting in raw format is helpful (of course, I don't need to shoot in raw all the time, the regular camera on the 15/16 is just as good). I'm just hoping the regular models in future will go to 120Hz.
That's awesome! Yeah it's dope for that usage!
Thanks mate! My plan was buying the 15 (because of the good price now) but I'm still in doubt because of the better camera of the 15 pro, as well as the 120 hz, usb-c that can connect directly to a hard drive and the ability to get apple intelligence. What would you recommend?
Honestly for me it's the pro model, but they're both great phones!
In my c 16 is 1038 dollars and the 15 pro is 1168 dollars. Which one would you recommend? Thanks❤
Pro!
Finally a review that really gets to the meat and potatoes of the devices. So I have the S23 Ultra at the moment, have been a Samsung user for quiet a while. I have had two iPhones in the past, the 8 Plus, and the 11 Pro, I left the iPhone because I wanted to be able to move my apps around to where I wanted them. Couldn't do it at the time, but now you can. I wish they would add an app tray like on Android, but I can deal without that. I am dumping Samsung because they have hard doubled down on the darn curved edge screen! I have spent over $200 on screen protectors, and you CANNOT get a screen protector that will stay on those stupid curved edges. In all honesty, this is why I'm going back to iPhone, so I came here to make my mind up about either the 15 Pro, or the 16. And I'm almost there, leaning towards the 15 Pro, just got to watch some more camera comparison videos. I take a lot of photos, and I take them all with my phone, so I want to get the best photos and bang for the money. Also, the other thing that Apple has figured out is the OS and the apps which run on it, because they just work well together. Samsung has come a long ways, but you still get those apps that just do not run well on Android, I am guessing because they are ports from IOS, so that is also a huge plus.
Yeah man, I would way rather be in the Apple ecosystem, I know it’s a walled garden but it’s a pretty darn sweet garden haha
I have iPhone 7
Should l get iPhone 15 pro or iPhone 16 plus?
They’re both great but personally I like the pro. The 16 has insane battery life though
@@JonAdamsTech the 16 plus is better than 15 pro in battery only?
@@JonAdamsTechas I understand 15 pro battery isn’t less in performance compared to 16th battery
Thanks for the video. I am so confused. I am on a 12 mini and want to make an upgrade. iPhone 15 pro and iPhone 16 are in my budget. Now my pro owner friends want me to go for pro but my 15 plus or 15 owner friends recommend me the 16 for battery. Apparently 15 pro is not good battery wise?
Bro that battery lasts all day no problem. I’d go for the 15 pro personally
Coming from an iPhone 11 Pro, 16 pro max is a very big jump for me
Yeah that’s a massive jump!
Awesome presentation!
Hey thanks!
@@JonAdamsTech I have the iPhone 15 Pro Max for 11 months now.
Bro can I go for 15 pro Max instead of 15 pro ? Wat would be the significant difference 🤔
It would have a better battery!
@@JonAdamsTech Thank you !
My wife has a 12 model. She wants to keep a phone around the same screen size. So I am wondering which one of these two is better? As an upgrade??
15 pro
don't forget about the weight, pro is heavier
Wow! Just what i needed. Because im thinking which one i should get. 😊 and 15pro it is! 😘☺️
Nice, glad it was helpful!
I have the 15 pro max … should I not be upgrading this year? I love the colors of the 16 this year. I’m not liking the natural titanium I chose last year .
I wouldn’t upgrade personally, not a big enough of a jump to upgrade.
Great video
Thanks!
If i want to buy my first iphone cause i need a better camera to do with my work..which one better 15pro or 16?
I’d go pro if it’s for work where you may need that telephoto lens
15 pro max
Thanks, great review 🇨🇦
Hey I appreciate it!
I need to upgrade from the regular 11. I have the chance to get the 15Pro 70€ cheaper than the regular 16. Most important things to me are the camera and the battery. Would you buy the 16 or the 15Pro?
15 pro
The battery on the 16 is better but the 15 is just so much better all around
im used to my 60hz screen on my iphone 11 so i dont think i will need 120hz, also i have small hands so maybe the camera button will be more handy for me when using it vertically?
Nice! What color 16 do you think you’ll go for then?
@@JonAdamsTechblack i think
for small hands iphone 15 pro could be better since it is bit smaller than 16.
@@mkhatri0071 mm tall 15 pro than regular 16,,,,is that a big difference?😂
@@BabeiIlie nice nitpicking however, it does make a difference not just taller its less wider as well when compared on top of each other. So the form factor while holding the phone is better.
I’m on an 11, should I get the 16 or 16 pro
16
What’s your budget?
@@JonAdamsTech my friend works at Apple so I get discount tbf so budget doesn’t matter, it’s just usage
As an iPhone 8 plus user, I wanna upgrade to 15 pro or 16/16pro, I am debating between those because of the camera (I know It's a big jump from 8 to newer models ) so is it worth considering the 16 pro or should I just buy the 15 pro ...?
16 pro has battery, if you care about battery then get 16 pro...if not 15 pro is very good, lighter and smaller than 16 pro
@ thank you!!🫱🏻🫲🏼
Yep totally agree! For me I’d rather save the money and get the 15 pro but both are great and you can’t go wrong with either!
@@JonAdamsTech price wise in Serbia the 15pro is $1300 and the 16 pro $1600, and I honestly I an going more towards 15pro🫱🏻🫲🏼 thank you!
I'd say always go with the 15 pro. It's the same price for better.
Yep!
I've been confused between this two for a gift for my brother but,After watching this video i order a iphone 15 pro natural titanium. Thank you it was so helpful ❤
Nice! Glad it was helpful!
I never had iphone i dont know between 15 pro,16 pluse or 16 pro please help meeeeee😢
But the screen on 15 pro is better so that’s what I would go with
@FanBoyTechnology refresh rate
Hey, I'm an android user and lookin to get an IOS
I'm confused between 15 pro and regular 16, which one should I get?
Would be getting 256 gb variant though😄
Personally i'd go with the 15 pro
@@JonAdamsTech thanks for your reply man❤️🇳🇵
But I'm also confused about going with pro max as the battery and other camera options are also better and is the extra price worth it?
Would it be worth it to push my budget a little bit up or the pro's battery is enough for the day??
I am also in the same Situation, currently i use samsung s23 but i want to use an iphone now. Which one should I buy?
16 pro with better battery and newer device
Or 15 pro with slighty worse camera and Battery, but about 160 Euros cheaper
Does anybody ever exp using 15 pro and 16 base model in real life? Can share the screen on time for both phones? Just want to check either the battery life of 16 base really worth to ditch all pro features on ip15 pro
I don’t think it’s worth it but the battery life is pretty darn good on the 16
@ noted on that. I wouldn’t mind to care for extra 1-2h screen on time on ip16 base. But if it more than that (3-4h), that will be a plus point for 16base.
Can someone please tell me how is fhe battery life of 15 pro?
It’s really great, lasts all day for me no problem
Best and clear opinion...
Thanks!
"The always-on display with customizable widgets of iphone16 makes staying updated much easier, but I wish it didn’t drain the battery so fast."
Yeah I had to turn it off for that reason
I like the way you explain, sounds so positive person
Thanks!
