Upgraded to 15pro from 13. No issues. Its not mind blowing or anything. Really don’t notice a difference between it and the 13 aside from maybe slightly snappier and slightly better pictures and video. Just slightly

It’s fine. Your informal polls will tell you very little that’s statistically significant.
I upgraded from 14PM to 15PM. I actually love the phone. People will hate me, but I’m a case free user. Ever since then I love how the phone feels. It’s pretty quick too. Especially, with Siri. Moreover the cameras look the same yet there’s some speed boost here and there. Portraits are much faster now. Raw doesn’t take much more time to process than before. I haven’t tried log yet I love the action button.
Face ID is way better the graphics insane with Xbox streaming
15 Pro Max. I was having weird WiFi issues where my connection would suddenly cut out, but that went away after I disabled 6e. Maybe it’s been fixed broadly, but I haven’t tried re-enabling the setting.
Battery life is fine but not as great as I’d hoped. It’s probably the apps I use and keep running in the background.
It does get questionably warm while charging. Not too hot to handle or anything, but warm to the point where I wonder if that’s normal. My 13 Pro Max would get similarly warm when wirelessly charging, but this one happens even when using a USB cable.
Love the camera. I never use digital zoom, but 25x really surprised me.
XS tho 15 pro. Everything just feels smoother and just better 🤷♂️
11 Pro to 15 Pro, fantastic piece of technology. Screen is sharp, is fast and smooth, lightweight, good speakers and battery lasts the whole day. Plus is literally a game console, you can connect the IPhone 15 to a TV o monitor via USB and a game controller via bluetooth and you can play AAA games like Resident Evil Village.
Coming from the 12 Mini to the 15 Pro, great, no issues to report. I am hard pressed to ever return to Android.
Not a fan of scroll jitter in X and Reddit app.
Perfect. I’m day 1 and battery is great, camera perfect and the and still noticed hot Jin the bezels.
I’m pretty happy with iOS too
I came from a 14 Pro Max, I like it the difference is minimal besides the USB type c. The overheating is kind of ridiculous. And I don’t use Facebook. But.B otherwise, I love the phone love the color cause I went with blue titanium.b
Great! USB-C has finally come and finally able to export photos and videos at normal speeds. I actually do need to on a weekly basis. Sometimes I even record directly to a USB-C SSD. 🤯
Amazing - one my favorite iPhones I’ve owned
Prom max here. I like how pleasant it’s to hold. Hey smooth and reminds me of my 6 plus. It gets a bit hot while charging but that’s about it. I’m thinking of going naked with this one since I really love the curved edges and the titanium but I noticed my screen got scratches so I might just get a screen protector even though I never used one on any iPhone I had besides 5.
I don't see enough comments about the scratches. I have been using an iPhone since the 4S and I never use a case or a screen protector. I rocked my 13 Pro Max and used it/abused it without a case and without any major screen scratches. There was definitely wear and tear but nothing you could see with the screen on let alone feel. Within the first week of the iPhone 15 Pro Max I had two scratches on the screen I could feel with my fingernails. It only ever went in and out of my back pocket and was placed on my desk. Exact same as my 13. Kind of disappointing but I'll swap it out soon for the $30
Blaming the issues of heat on the phone is probably the most uneducated moron takes I’ve ever seen. The overheating was 100% caused by iOS 17 and has long since been patched. Stop following the garbage YouTube clickbait that you drown yourself in. The 15 pro max is easily one of the best phones ever made.
Weirdly aggressive. Regardless of the reasons the phone was getting quite hot and not everyone understands tech and the causes to overheating. And ops question seemed very reasonable.
Against my better judgement, I got a 15 Pro Max rather than the 15 Pro - swayed by the enhanced optical zoom. Truth is I really liked my 13 Pro (but I wife had destroyed her Iphone X so I gave her the 13 Pro) so I should have just gotten another 15 Pro. However, other than the size, I've no complaints - had the phone since launch, it spends most of it's time on third party (Anker) wireless charging pads (one next to bed, one on my desk) or wired carplay in my car on longer trips - still showing 100% battery health (which I would expect after such a small period of time).
Everyone I’ve a question as I’m about to get the 15 Pro (coming from iPhone X) and what concerns me is the battery: is it worth it to spend 150€ more and get the Pro Max over the Pro just for the battery? and more, is the bigger Pro Max battery going to age better than the regular Pro? or since it’s a bigger screen it’s going to draw more power and in a few years it’s going to age worse?
It’s been amazing! Love the refresh rate, battery life and camera quality!
Has been great. Live streamed a wedding ceremony to YouTube on 5G for 45 minutes under direct sun (ambient temp 25°C/77°F). The iPhone 15 Pro Max was very hot, the screen went really dim but it survived and didn't overheat or shutdown.
After the stream, the phone was super hot and uncomfortable to touch. I could tell it was throttling hard, the UI was really choppy but the stream completed without a hitch.
Upgraded from the 12 to the 15 Pro Max. So far everything is great. Loving the new battery life and camera. No problem with overheating or other issues as well.
Overheating is gone, yes. Wifi/reception is garbage though. It often is stuck and does nothing until airplane mode off/on cycle. Annoying. Also dont buy the 15 pro max because of the 5x lense. Apple is too dumb. In many cases it doesnt switch to the 5x lense and zooms in digitally with the main lense.
So far not satisfied and not the moneys worth. Already thinking about ditching it for a vivo x100 pro. Event the 90 pro plus still wipes the floor in all those cases.
Moved from 12 to 15 pro max. One thing apart from size has made my life easier is how it’s much easier to hold in hand.
Using it without any case now ✨
IOS is definetely not bug-free, in some apps theres a keyboard lag
Went from a iPhone 13 Pro to a 15 Pro Max. Love the battery life and larger screen. Have to adjust to hand cramping up from single hand use and have to use two hands more often due to the larger size.
Got a 15PM on launch day, had zero issues so far, love the phone.
Glad to know that almost everyone here is having fun with the phone without any problems! Thank you for all your feedback! I had a thought of upgrading from 12 pro max to 15 pro max maybe in the next 3-4 or maybe 5 months, so should I go for it or wait for the 16?
Pro max here. It's fine. Not much different to the 12 pro max before it
Wish I stuck with 14PM. CarPlay still don’t work like it should, don’t connect right away. Siri feels off. Have to repeat myself. Phone gets way hotter when charging too
15 Pro, have had it just over a month now. Never had any overheating issues. In fact, it stays cooler than my 13 Pro did. No other issues of note either. Face ID is very quick, screen is bright, speakers are loud, camera is great and it's lighter than previous models.
Coming from an s23, the battery is amazing I’ve gone almost 2 days without needed a charge and that is being a heavy user (phone calls, texting, social media, etc) so I’m not disappointed as where as my s23 would only give me at best 5 hours (I know the s23 isn’t comparable to the pro max due to the specs given etc but just giving a comparison)
iPhone 15Pro here (not a fan of pro max size TBH). Everything great.
I love it completely. The camera is amazing, the screen is incredible, the device itself is just beautiful, I spend time just looking at it whenever I take the case off to clean it, it has been the perfect phone so far.
Exactly the same as my 12 pro. I don’t know why I fall for this shit all the time. I do like the USB-C though.
A decent phone. Main camera is great but the others ones are lacking compared to other devices like the Google pixel 8 pro. Haptics are quite weak compared to my pixel 7 pro. OS is very smooth and stable though. Battery life is good. Not had any issues apart from prior to 17.1 where the cameras picked up a few times.
Lol nobody here talks about 8gb ram.
I upgrade due to the 8gb ram.
Apps refresh lesser now.
this thread helped me finalize my purchase!
15pro natural titanium…
Came from a OnePlus 8 pro, first iPhone since the 4S
I love it /fin
Loving the 15 pro. Had 14 pro but form factor is more comfortable. Caseless. Camera is amazing if you know what you’re doing.
So far so good with everything. I came from Android so I'm still getting used to the massive lack of customization but overall this is a better device.
The camera is great, the weight is fine, the screen is nice and the dynamic island doesn't bother me THAT much although I'd rather have a punchhole by far..
I never had any of the overheating issues people talked about. Even with Wireless Charging.
15 PM, camera is a dream and I never have battery issues throughout a day. Be welcome to look into r/iphone15pro for more info
13 Pro Max to 15 Pro Max. Battery seems decent, phone feels a little better in the hand - noticeably lighter weight too!
Love being able to plug in my long USB C I got for my iPad, cameras are noticeably a lot better in low light.
Mostly just love that I went from 256Gb to 512Gb this time round - started to run out of storage on my old phone so it’s nice not having that same worry these days - plus the video recording to an external drive is chefs kiss for some of my workflows.
I had seriously bad battery drain on my 15 Pro until the last set of updates on the iPhone and my AWU. Now, battery life is back to normal. I like its lightness, but am sad that the metal frame doesn't fully cover the edge of the top glass, making the phone more prone to break than the last model. It also makes screen protectors less aesthetically appealing as they have to be even smaller than the screen itself due to the beveled edge of the phone's screen.
It’s awesome. Only thing I noticed certain app developers are way to slow to optimize the app to read and run all cores so it is heating up. Like Meta apps , certain VR apps.
Again most days I get through the day. But if on constant video calls or voice call for longer period the battery definitely drains faster.
