It’s my second time watching this type of video content from you. Always helpful! Switched from 12 to 15 and it feels like a big jump! A couple of tips I didn’t do on my phone since I availed of apple care so I feel braver to use the phone’s capabilities. Thanks for showing 15’s camera upgrade as I find people are focusing more on the pro
Thank you! I just bought my very first iphone and its a 15 so I have a lot of learning to do hahaha! so far I am loving the speakers they are freaking good and the charging is surprisingly fast I am loving it!
These tips are so helpful especially the one about checking the battery cycle count. I had no idea about that feature. Also the info on the USB-C port and data transfer speeds is great to know. Thanks Brandon!
My new 15 pro does not have the battery cycle count, Mfg date or First Use - I just received it from Verizon. Upgraded my iOS about 2 hours ago. Does this vary by carrier or country? - Update, it's under the Battery Health screen!
I ended up with the 15 Plus, for two main reasons. First, I didn’t care for the titanium and second I use the mute switch a LOT and wanted to keep it. Also, I REALLY wanted pink 😂
Setting the Action Button to magnifier is a gamerchanger! Now I can read the microscopic text on a label when I'm in a store. The ability to check how many times the phone has been charged is also incredibly useful. Mine is new!
I’ve only had my 15 pro two days & I have already discovered not all USB-C cables are created equal. Trying to find one that will allow me to use Apple CarPlay is a challenge.
Interesting and useful video. Coming from Android I have a lot of questions as there are differences especially where things are located and what options are available. Will have to view your other videos about it.
Thank you for the very, very useful information. I'm no a non-techie person but I had to listen and look and repeat the video several times to find the area you were talking about. If you could just make that a little easier to follow, that would be nice. I slowed down the YT video because you were talking very fast, which worked well. Thanks again.
Love your work mate - I just switched from my old 12 Pro Max to the 15 Pro Max today. You know why? Because I accidentally shattered one of the camera lenses on my old phone. 😬 Anyway, this new one is pretty awesome, but if you're rocking the 11 Pro Max and your battery's still hanging in there, I'd say don't bother upgrading. I see it like this - your phone is just a tool. If it's still doing everything you need it to, why mess with a good thing? Once it starts acting up and causing problems, that's when you should consider an upgrade. And seriously, if you're constantly getting a new phone every year, you're basically just making those tech companies even richer. 😉
Standby mode is cool if you don’t have sleep focus mode. I want to use as a bedside clock, but have a sleep focus so it will timeout standby mode (blank locked screen) if it’s enabled
Great pointers! As for the camera, RAW is best, especially if you use photoshop programs and apps, that aren't Apple, because some might not recognize HEIF format
Useful info. Upgrading from XR, and while it's still an amazing phone, I have some catching up to do when it comes to all these new features lol. Thanks!
This has been a great video for me as I’m getting an iPhone 15 and this time I want to make it right instead like I did with my other phone where I broke the battery because I was charging it 24/7 so thank you so much!
Hello i am new to the Iphone and i appreciate the video, but i have something to say about the battery limit, that is not on IPhone exclusive since Samsung have that for so long and i love because really help to the battery a lot.
Helpful video. There are differences between different usb C cables, with some allowing faster charging than others and some providing data transfer rates. Not all USB C cables are the same! There used to be 6 different standards for USB C cables but not all sellers showed the standard thy supported and the number has increased. If you’re using a fast charger and the wrong cable things can get pretty hot and/or slow. Some of the official specifications for cables that use a USB-C: USB 2 - max transfer speed of 480 Mbps, capable of either 3A or 5A at 20V, cable length up to 4m USB 3.2 Gen 1 - max transfer speed of 5 Gbps, capable of either 3A or 5A at 20V, cable length up to 2m USB 3.2 Gen 2 - max transfer speed of 10 Gbps, capable of either 3A or 5A at 20V, cable length up to 1m USB 3.2 Gen 2×2 - max transfer speed of 20 Gbps, capable of either 3A or 5A at 20V, cable length up to 1m USB 4 - max transfer speed of 40 Gbps, capable of either 3A or 5A at 20V, cable length up to 2m with 40 Gbps available up to 1m USB Type-C 2.1 - capable of Power Delivery 3.1 standard with 5A current at 48V, meaning 240 W charging Thunderbolt 3 - max transfer speed of 40 Gbps, 5A at 20V charging, cable length up to 0,5m when passive or 2m with active cables, support for Thunderbolt spec Thunderbolt 4 - max transfer speed of 40 Gbps, 5A at 20V charging, indefinite cable length with supported Intel cables, support for Thunderbolt spec
This is such a good guide! Im a comp sci student and have a networks module, what you list (including cable length) is what we have to do, and really tells you what you need and do not, but also the transfer times in a digestable way for people who do not know much about cabling, or USB C, I was going to look it up myself because I've never used it as I always use Apple for my phones, but you have saved me the hassle, thank you for the useful guide!
I am planning to buy iphone 15 from iphone 11 this month. I wanted to upgrade to pro because i love photography so much. But the difference of the price is about 400singapore dollar. Do you think it’s worth it? I always take care of my phones and my 11 is already 4 years with me.
I just got my first Iphone (15) since forever using Android. It's getting used to it i guess. This video helped me a bit to get things organized on my phone. Thanks!
Problems with the first item listed: there's no section under SETTING > GENERAL > ABOUT entitled BATTERY; therefore, not CYCLE COUNT. Why go further? UPDATE: unlike the description in the video, CYCLE COUNT in found only after going into the BATTERY HEALTH section.
Another thing I’m 63 and haven’t got a clue about the devises you’re talking about I’ve been learning about security and getting the best out of my system and iPhone so I’m new to all the jargon about stuff that goes in the port . Give us a break please 😅
You didn’t show us how to get to the locator thing. I’m old-ish and I need play by play exact button to push, etc. like the ‘dynamic island’ wouldn’t open for me no matter how many times I tapped on it or swiped it. I’ll ask one of my kids or techy friends to help me with that.
I just switched from android to a 15 pro but the usb c wires i used for my android don't work for the iphone, any suggestions or reasons why they dont work?
Not on mine my iPhone 15 in about just has songs iMEI WiFi address videos capacity Ect wtf 🤬 how come you’re iPhone 15 is different to mine that doesn’t make sense unless you’re on the pro and maybe it’s different now I’m confused 😵💫 please explain reply please.
THERE IS NO ACTION BUTTON SETTING ON MY SETTING SCREEN! your video shows it right below "Control Center" but right below my "control center" tab is "display & Brightness". I did a search and there is no action control setting that comes up. why is that??
Could someone explain why my auto portrait mode won’t work on my 15pro max? Mines just normal pics. What are the factory settings because I think when I changed some settings it made it not work
@BrandonButch is there a reason Siri can no longer play “my favourite song” when asked to? After the update Siri started telling me that he can’t read my mind whereas before he would play a station made specifically made for me which was quite accurate and amazing. Also, the Apple Music queue and lack of prompt when playing something that’s not queued and erasing the queue. Can you please shed more light on that?
Great information on new iPhone 15. I just got iPhone 15 pro max. Love it but hope u can help with one thing that changed. My 12 pro used to give a sound notification when I received a new message. The new 15 doesn’t give me any sound notifications. How do I get it to make sound again for my contacts who message me.

Glad you found it useful!!
The battery cycle count feature is new. There was previously a way to obtain this data but it wasn’t as easy.
@brandon it’s just been a week that I bought my phone and my cycle count is already 7 is that ok ?
i got my iphone in December 17, and now my battery cycle count is 24, is that okay?
My new 15 pro does not have the battery cycle count, Mfg date or First Use - I just received it from Verizon. Upgraded my iOS about 2 hours ago. Does this vary by carrier or country? - Update, it's under the Battery Health screen!
The control panel lock feature is very important. Thanks for mentioning it
"So you just got an iPhone 15 or 15 Pro"
No, but still watching 😭

Gonna keep my mint condition (and mint green) iPhone 11.
I just got an iPhone 15 finally. This is the first time I’ve ever watched a video about a phone I actually own
I ended up with the 15 Plus, for two main reasons. First, I didn’t care for the titanium and second I use the mute switch a LOT and wanted to keep it. Also, I REALLY wanted pink 😂
Me too. I can't wait to see mine and I REALLY want pink 🥺

Super helpful Brandon im switching from XR to 15 finally!!! Thank you mate!
i'm doing this tomorrow, do u have any tips???
I still have my 8+
Setting the Action Button to magnifier is a gamerchanger! Now I can read the microscopic text on a label when I'm in a store.
The ability to check how many times the phone has been charged is also incredibly useful. Mine is new!
Yes! It can save me constantly putting glasses on in the kitchen so as to read labels. Great idea!😊
Thank you! From iphone 8 plus to 15 plus. This is helpful.
Same here huge upgrade from the 8
Me too!!! Was sooo stuck on 8 until the last of 1000 drops then it cracked. Taped it up and got a 15. I feel like I’ve been living in the Stone Age!🤣
My 8+ still works perfect and looks brand new. Been in a case since day one.
I needed to know about the dynamic island so bad. Thank you Brandon!
Shout out to the music you listen to. I am a fan of Kabza de Small!! I'm South African and he is indeed THE GUY !! 🇿🇦
Bro, I just saw the same thing and quickly looked for this comment!
I wish someone would do one of these videos for seniors. This is the second one I have watched where the narrator is talking so fast.
Totally agree. My solution is to play the video at a slower speed and I find that it does help.
Click the gear in the top right corner of the video to get to settings, then click “playback speed” and then lower it to a demonization under 1.00
I’ve only had my 15 pro two days & I have already discovered not all USB-C cables are created equal. Trying to find one that will allow me to use Apple CarPlay is a challenge.
You packed a lot of helpful tips into this video. Thanks! Subscribed and looking for more from you.
glad you found it useful!
Interesting and useful video. Coming from Android I have a lot of questions as there are differences especially where things are located and what options are available. Will have to view your other videos about it.
LOVE videos like this. Thanks! I always start a fresh phone for fun and not to change this up. Thanks for reminding me of some things as well.
Absolutely!
How did you do the calendar on the Lock Screen? 😮
Please tell how 😮
Is dynamic island already dloaded on my 15?

What if I don't see the cycle count option on my iphone?
check under Battery > Battery Health > Cycle count is there now. Mine was 1 since i charged it once only since yesterday that i bought it.

As for the camera, RAW is best, especially if you use photoshop programs and apps, that aren't Apple, because some might not recognize HEIF format
