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!
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
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.
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!
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 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 😂
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.
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??
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
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.
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
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.
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. 😉
@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?
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!
I got my 15 a week after launch and i can confirm that this is true, i personally use a case but without one the phone feels ridiculously soft and smooth
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.
I've enabled 24MP on my pro max but when i take a picture in a broad daylight it says it's 18MP. And when I turn on ProRAW JPEG 48MP it takes max 36 MP. Am I doing something wrong that it won't take 24 MP pics?
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
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?
Hey Brandon, just brought my i15 Pro Max to life yesterday. All your tips are Fantastic… but I Do Not have the dynamic island… where can I activate it?

@BrandonButch I just got a new iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max. They both came out of the box with 1 on the battery cycle count. BUT, when I had a base iPhone 15 last month, that phone came out of the box with 0 battery cycle count. Does this mean my Pro and Pro Max were used/returned/then sold as “new” OR the battery was used in some other device before?
Sir iMessage is not showing check-in option with old conversation, if I start a new conversation or delete the whole conversation with a person and start a fresh then only it’s showing check in option.

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.

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?

The control panel lock feature is very important. Thanks for mentioning it
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
