I guess I'm the 1% that actually cares about the 120hz cuz I seriously can't go back...
hell yes brother
You got spoiled haha, 60hz is still fine for peasants like me…

New? Bro where have you been the last 2 years, its been like that since the 13 series
Nice

The fact that the regular iPhone 15's don't have 120Hz displays for $1,000 is just effin criminal 😅
Majority of people don’t care
Buy Samsung if you care
120 Hz display is not something i would ask from an iPhone. If it has it, great, if it doesnt, i dont care.
LOL
The $1k iphone 15 pro has 120hz. It's the cheaper $800 15 that doesn't. I still think it should but I wanted to clarify.
Why it feels way lighter: Although it's
erm actually
@@Pikmin3388shut
I like turtles
Interesting to know that’s how it works. Piss off, Pikmin.
They did all that but didn't innovate the phone
Dave being able to deliver A-roll while filming quality top-down simultaneously is crazy. makes the whole video more engaging.
One of the reasons I like watching Dave is that he has very good editing skills. He is able to deliver his narrative when on screen very well, and he doesn't do it by cutting a lot of takes together like many other KZheadrs. That, plus the quality of his no-nonsense, pretty unbiased, content makes him a really stand-out tech reviewer.
Dave will give this phone at least that after years of lightning port.
Also makes it more authentic
@@droiddevx03 😂
Thanks for the review David. Always top notch! Been a fan of your style for years. Don't ever change mate!
I’ve had the auto portrait mode work on objects, too. Case in point: I was driving behind my wife in her car and took a picture. Well, the phone decided it had enough depth information - turned out to be a great portrait shot after I went in to adjust! Pretty cool.
Given the fact that colour options are the one of the only noticeable novelty in iPhone launches, apple will eventually run out of colours. Which means that Dave can finally get a Teal coloured iPhone.
The launchers are private property of Gina Marie Gordon's
Unlike so many other reviewers in this space, you make it obvious that the phones are all great choices, your life won’t be ruined if you chose one version over the other and we should all be thankful we have the choice.
It will ruin your life if you buy a 1500$ phone you don't need / like
@@xIJudaSif one can afford a 1500 phone with no credit cards than their life wouldn’t even be affected lol. Like why buy a phone at that price if your struggling
I think this is the perfect time to pick up a pro, take good care of it and keep it for 5-7 years. USB-C makes it nice and future proof.
lmao sounds like you're talking about your own psychological thing here
What I like about this is that Dave brought up the 60Hz refresh rate issue on the base model, plenty of tech reviewers gloss over it like it's nothing. That's one of the most important factors which influence buying decisions.
The only people buying the base model is parents for there kids or old couples , not really anyone tech savvy,
While I do agree 120Hz ProMotion is nice (and even saves battery life on average), most people don’t care, as reflected by the buying statistics. Many people don’t see the difference unless pointed to it, while the very generous brightness or the dynamic island (and its functionality) are much more noticeable to most people.
The average consumer doesn’t care dude
I do think it should be there however I have it on my s21 and have it disabled, rn its just a gimmick not a necessity, the vast majority of users won't care
A lot of people may not care. But not the ones who have used a 120Hz device. They are not going back. I know Apple has to create a difference between their usual and pro models, I only wish they didn't pick this feature as one of the differences. It's just petty.
i've seen a lot of videos about the new iphone as i am in fact browsing to change my iphone X half broken and beat up. i have to say i love the fact you are objectiv and i love that you really showed the pro and cons. with a regular pace it was cool to watch thank you
What I like about your reviews is that they are so straight to the point - no fat. I'm probably going to stick with my iPhone 13 Pro Max. However, the direct to SSD capabilities on the 15 and the look of that Olivia Rodrigo video that was demo'd at the Apple Event are compelling. The video out of iPhones is truly impressive.
Im a one cable kind of guy, thanks to eu i can finally stop carrying both lightning and usbc, id upgrade just for that from 14 pro
@@azizulsulaiman9910just get a cable with a lightning and USB-C connector. problem solved and no need to fork out the extra cash.
Dave's videos used to be straight to point. This video has about 7-8 minutes of just pure fat.
@@azizulsulaiman9910 you'd carry only 1 cable? I want a 2nd cable for a spare or when needing to charge 2 devices at the same time or shortly will need to charge a 2nd device. Cables are not that heavy and still need 2 cables.
@@DBE008he’s sayying other devices only need usb type c and can connect to other devices easily. iPhones are alot harder to work without outside of apple.
Thank you for going in-depth on the details regarding the hand feel, weight, fingerprints etc. I think these kind of details matter a little more to the everyday person rather than benchmark scores. 🙏🏾❤️
That int'l price comparison point at the end is one of the best finishing notes I've ever seen on tech YT. Bravo. I didn't realise that I wasn't subbed, but I am now.
Dave’s reviews reaching unprecedented levels of greatness
I LOVE your reviews. Extremely honest and unbiased. Most reviewers sound like they've been paid to only talk about the pros but say nothing about the cons.
9:11 "not be a sweaty tech nerd about it" I like how Dave doesnt take himself too seriously and can joke about himself, the reviews are on point
Waltah
goddamn i came to ur channel after lot days may b year ....u lot total different (bit bad) 😶
never forget...
I would take 2000 nits over 120hz in a heartbeat. Smooth scrolling doesn't really provide anything, being able to see your screen in the sun on the other hand 😅
@@dinolarssonI don't spend too much time in the sun due to radiation rays so I'll take 120hz
I’m very tempted to get the 15PM from my 13PM bc I’ve dreamt for a usb-c iPhone for so long and the 15PM could finally be one that I see myself holding onto for years (usb-c was the last thing I wanted to make an ideal phone). But I’m gonna wait a little bit more to see if the overheating issues get ironed out. I just know that in the day to day I won’t actually notice any difference
I never comment but you did a fantastic review. I was torn between the white and natural 15 pro max. I'm glad I saw your review. This is a small thing but thanks for showing your natural 15 pro max in your ghost case. It looks a little too dark for me so that helped me decide to get the white one!
I think for the first time in a long time, the base models are much compelling than the Pro models. (last year, nobody even considered the base 14)
yup. those base models are SO awesome this year
because the iPhone 14 was literally just a rebadged iPhone 13. I picked up a new iphone 13 last year because it was such an underwhelming upgrade for $250 more.
How are any of these compelling to people? I don't get it
@@NneonNTJIf you mean upgrading from a 13 or 14, then no, they are not compelling. However, there are people coming from 5 year old phones. The base models should be a nice upgrade.
Usb 2.0, 60ghz, very compelling for $900
Regarding the A16 not supporting USB 3. The iPad Air gen 4 has the A14 SoC and it supports 5Gbps transfer speed through the USB-C port, I don’t really think it’s the limitations of the SoC itself but rather a choice they made so they can differentiate the regular models and pro models.
Same for the iPad mini.
They just lazy and reused last years pro model chips, which are different from iPad chips
I think the iPad was made with USB-C in mind so the chip was made compatible, whereas the new iPhone are force to have USB-C juts last year, and they reused the old chips too so there's nothing they can change, unless they did change it and call it the A16x or smt.

Really appreciated the little info at the end talking about how expensive tech is now.
Dave delivered like a champ. I have seen so many reviews of latest iPhones each year but dave always surprises me the most The ending few minutes were heart tuching.
Dave's review of any device gets my attention. I feel like if I need a bit more honesty, I know where to get it.
So refreshing to see a review that doesn't feel like its paid for.Thank you!

Best review we will ever have for the iPhone 15. You never disappoint Dave
I honestly think Dave is the only person who can pull of a no-script video.
True 👍
How do you know it’s without script 😂
@@DjangoGroenyeah kinda curious.. how can they tell rlly? Cus of the continous take i guess.. i do think he still written the script tho just to keep it natural when hes taking the vid
I just like your videos man, straight to the point and fun to watch
15 Pro 256GB is the sweet spot, to me. The action button is an awesome hardware addition, the titanium chassis is great, USB 3 transfer speeds will be nice to dump RAW footage and 4K videos to my laptop
This is the most brief and concise iPhone 15 review I've seen so far. Even the tiny details that may not ever be shared by other KZheadrs have been shared. Kudos!
Yes because that's all there is. tiny little miniscule updates. Apple has kicked back.
Which is interesting, because by Dave's usual standards this would be a long video. Yet this 20 minute video had more to show than some reviewers' half an hour videos.
Miniscule? I’m upgrading from the 8+ this is massive upgrade for me and many, about everyone updates onnce a year 🤡
Bruh it’s 20min long, avg length of these reviews I’m seeing hover around 10-12min, nothing brief about that
Dave always does the best reviews.
He's more relatable in terms of actual use for everyday people.

Much better take on these phones than other reviewers. Good work Dave
Love the review Dave, keep up the great work!
Only review so far I've seen that even _compared_ stuff like the camera quality, battery, and screen brightness to the older phones. It's crazy that actually _testing_ stuff like demanding games and usability details is nowhere to be found in other reviews. Dave's still the best out there.
I like the honest take on the fine woven texture vs just regurgitating that it feels like “premium suede” like everyone else. I haven’t felt it yet but I’m a fan of suede and that’s definitely not suede…. If it was $30 I’d be okay with it
I will be happy with the basic 15 model 🥰 Pre order is in place. Thank you for a great video 💯😎
Was really puzzled why Dave spent so much time on the built quality. But kudos for being one of the most partial reviewers giving credits to other phone's camera output quality. ❤
They have to justify you on dropping over a grand for a phone that pretty much looks like your current one. Even though most people use a case on their phone.
Seriously, spending an absurd amount of time on build quality. His reviews have gone downhill.
been noticing that a lot lately with last Iphone as well, It's not just him tho, every review video I have watched so far spends too much time on build quality.
@@hassaneljebyly2868 I haven't seen every review video but have watched maybe 5 or 6 and they didn't do as much as this guy did in this video. Who did you watch? I wanted to see the colours better and some have bad lighting to see the colours on the titanium iPhone's.
im confused, do you guys want a phone that falls apart..? Build quality matters haha
19:09 I really like how he actually talked about the prices in different countries instead of just talking abt the US pricing like everyone else
Checked out that fine woven case in the Apple Store and I was shocked how cheap it looks/feels. Already had scratches and scuffs from all the public testing it.
Thanks for sharing that info
It has gotten overwhelmingly negative feedback online. I don't know what Apple was thinking with this one. Back to the drawing board.
Once people start having it for a couple months it will make sense. Mine looked back for the first 4 days or so, but its lowkey coming together and looking like a high quality faded case
leather is more sustainable than plastic across the board. these cases were made for the landfill, quite ironic to call it "sustainability efforts".
About the new portrait mode on the iphone 15: I bought my first phone on December 27th 2017 (still using it). It's a Huawei, was around $300 when I bought it, and surprisingly my 6y/o phone has this so called iphone's "new portrait mode" where I can edit the photos afterwards. Like how much background blur I want or even I can change the focus point wherever I want , like if I want to blur the subject instead of the background I can do that . Again the phone is from 2017 . 🗿 Man I miss Huawei so much. 😢
Been a while since I last watched your vids. Excellent review as usual. Love the hair.
Nice video. Thanks for a nice review. But zoom does matter and matters a lot when you are shooting in a tighter space. Even 3x zoom is a lot to work with and you have to move farther from the subject. In case of 5x it is going to be a lot of problem in such situations. Ideally, I would have preferred that they kept 3x on Pro model by adding additional lens, but Apple being Apple will do in in coming years. One major update per year.
Fr cause now your getting worse results in that 3-4.9x range
the 48MP sensor on the non-Pro models is not for the 24MP shot imo but for the 2x zoom. So practically eliminating (a bit) the need for a third lens for portraits. That was a selling point for me.
@Dave2D you made it on trending! you deserve it
I am from Myanmar and been subscribed to the channel for 4 years. I would never guess that Dave is partially Myanmar/burmese.
Keep your videos honest, always. That is what we find in D2D!
Honest and to the point review, touching on key details all others (intentionally or not) ignore. Amazing work, as always, thank you.
Great viedo. You covered quite a lot. I purchased the 15 pro. All the best
Looking at your video's just heals my eyes, nice picture, animation and editing.
9:45 “ For it to be missing on a 700 dollar phone, it hertz” touché Dave
I find the different focal lengths really interesting because I feel, especially with portraits, that the wide-angle cameras of smartphones distort people's faces too much if you want to have a proper image composition. I love the possibility of going from 24mm to 35mm.
It's not interesting, it's just a digital crop.
I wouldn't say 35mm is a natural fit for portraits either. The telephoto in the 15pro is like 77mm or something right? That's far more of a typical portrait focal length, especially if you're trying to minimise facial distortions.
It’s literally just a crop
@@abdsalamelkhamlichi6677but they do it much better
@Your_Paramour yeah 50-105 is the sweet spot
dave never fail to deliver stellar content
Thank you for helping me decide which phone to get! 😊
Thank you for sharing this graph at the end of the video 19:01. For people outside the US/west Europe sometimes its so hard to buy phones like this. Especially when dollar exchange to local currency aren't 1:1, so we have extra % on device the price (in Poland base iPhone 15 Pro cost 1,390$ with taxes).
Americans just pay much more for their monthly contracts though. So most of them see it as a $30-40 extra monthly for three years. Almost noone there pays upfront.
Agree, Im from the UK and only pay £16 per month for unlimited calls and data. Here, there are some super cheap phone contracts.
12:30 agreed; it is not about speed, it is about maintaining that speed for a long time, i.e. longevity.
great in depth review , thanks a lot dave !
Love that new simple packaging design to peel off the two tabs❤
11:37 Thank you for explicitly noting that the cable included with the pro models is only USB 2.0! Every other review I've seen danced around it. Even Apple danced around it in their announcement. They said that one can use the updated speeds with an optional cable.
Sounds like Apple!
@@deej628that’s the standard for the cable that comes with MOST phones.
Always waiting for Dave2D reviews, been watching you since 2016
Always offering a nuanced and differentiated take. Thanks
So with that colored glass back, will the glass replacement cost go up too in case they break?
11:10 WTF are you talking about??? A16 Bionic never meant to have usb 3 speeds? What about A12x from 2018 iPad Pro? Perfectly capable of USB 3.1 gen 2 with 10gbps? It’s just an artificial limitation.
The Action Button should be *click* to toggle ringer/notifications and long press to launch whatever you assigned to it so you can keep the basic functionality that we're all used to already.
Give them 2 years for this new feature 😅
Dave it has been so long since I’ve checked in on your contact, this review was awesome. The long hair looks great and why is your profile picture not reflecting that change?????
Another great, trusted review! Apple always has great products but you keep it honest about the pros and cons of each device. Thanks Dave.
Thank you for actually going into detail about the physical design changes and color. So many other KZheadrs are skipping over this.
It's not that important tbh because physically after a while, you wont even notice it
@@MrOrtmeier source? Having trouble finding any proof of that
@@MrOrtmeier Colour at the back of the glass and inside the glass material are two different concepts. There could be another phone with a coloured Gorilla glass, but since the past decade, no way at all
@@MrOrtmeier "In practice...", well technically there is a difference and that is exactly being pointed out by the reviewer. Coloured glass is not unique but coloured Gorilla Glass might be. He also mentioned the downside that colours do look pale and I agree with that Your argument would be relevant if Dave reviewed the 1V, but he hasn't. He has also been a critic of apple in the past so his credentials are strong. For example even here, he said the 5x telephoto lens is not better than the competition and showed with proofs And having a back glass that is coloured using metallic ions is not a selling point per se but merely a nice thing to have.

After owning an s22 ultra for a year and a half its really hard for me to get excited about new phones. My phone is nearly perfect, i can complain about battery and the curved screen but theres not much to improve anymore with brick phones. Id trade it in if i got a good deal but the phone end game is here. Im not convinced folding phones will be the next big thing so im stuck waiting for something to blow my mind
I'm waiting for the s24 Ultra in February and will determine if I take that or wait for the iPhone 16 pro max next year
@@sqquintzzmaybe wait for the S25 and see if you get the iPhone 17 Pro the following year, or the S26 if not iPhone 18 Pro
I feel the same way, there is only so much more you can add to a phone to make it better, I mean the average person just uses their device to browse the web, social media and take photos. Even a cheapo phone can perfectly handle all of those already.
One of the best reviews Ive seen for the phone yet :)
I guess the rounded edges also help conceal the (again) thicker chassis. Good thing they made it lighter. The 14 Pro was too thick and too heavy for me. I went back to 12 Pro which is thinner and lighter. Same weight as the 15 Pro now.
For the colour of the glass they infused certain ions into the glass to give it that natural colour instead of spraying it I think it’s genius. It’s the same way in nature diamonds have different colour based off the type of ions trapped in it.
No nonsense just straight to the point review ❤
"No one else is doing it"? The flat sides with the more rounded edges are an exact replica of the Z Flip and Z Fold series from Samsung. Those aren't some obscure phones from far off markets. Really surprised you weren't aware of that.
I am using an iPhone I bought from a friend and am very underwhelmed with the photos compared to my Pixel that broke. Photos are my number one thing so I am definitely getting another pixel but there are things I like about the iPhone. The battery life is great and it is nice and the video is better but photos are my main thing. I tested it on two camping trips the past week and I even took some side by side shots with my girlfriend who uses a Pixel and it was obvious
Till now Dave is the only reviewer that I can trust him blindly ❤️🌸.
^^ sycophant
At 12:03 he says you can do 4k 60 out of the USBC port but that's not possible with 8bit color depth at 10Gbit. It must be a compressed 4k 60 in that case. Can you trust him blindly now 🫨
@@brandonchutt312yes but now it's on compressed 4k at 60
How stupid do you have to be to blindly trust anyone, let alone someone on KZhead you don't even know and is unaware of your existence?
@14:03 he claims photos have 50% more pickles which is a blatant lie, my recent photos barely have 5% more pickles compared to previous generations. We can't let him get away with it.
Hi Dave! So the phones stayed relatively the same price not because Apple is taking the hit but rather the materials are much cheaper than the build of previous iphones! Along with older iphones being the same price because of certain removed features (i.e. sim card slot, smaller haptic motor, lower sapphire amount in camera modules) So the phone is really nice and premium build though it cheaper because of the material :)
I bought the 14 Pro Max last year. Last year. I checked the specs and reviews on the 15 PM and find no reason, for me, to upgrade. Maybe in a few years when there is a real difference.
Dave is the man.. great video as usual.
Excellent and underrated review ngl you surprised me with how unbiased you are compared to other ' youtubers' and openly criticised apple for the features it's lacking
Regarding the more 'agile' feeling Pro models - there is definitely a reason they feel better than the absolute weight reduction. Most of the weight reduction was achieved around the very outer edges of the phone (i.e. the frame) and this brings the overall weight of the phone down but also concentrates the weight in the very centre of the phone, so it feels better balanced. Kind of like a mid-engined sports car vs a more conventional car with weight at the front and back, even if the overall weight of both are the same. The whole thing spins and moves around better because all the weight is right in the centre. Hope that makes sense. Looking forward to handling one to gauge the feel.
Mass determines the translational inertia, whereas mass distribution determines rotational inertia. That makes it easier to handle
The last time I used new iPhones they were extremely top-heavy. It felt like cameras were taking 2/3 of the whole weight and it was trying to flip over all the time. Even comparing to Pixel with its large block, Pixel feels much more balanced. I'm not sure if a different frame will help a lot with that. This was very unexpected as I had a muscle memory that iPhones were always almost perfectly balanced. But 14 is just really bad.
So good to see that chart at the end. Looking forward to more critical class tech stuff
What a great review! You have such an awesome personality!
The fact we can run RE Village, a cross gen game, a 1:1 console version on a sub 200g device without active cooling...it's mind blowing.

catching up in raw power, sure. That's not the whole picture though. iPhones are much more efficient
@@ReflektOnIt nope, the Snapdragon 888 and Gen 1 were behind the Apple silicon for 1.5 years. Probably with the old 855 and 865 they match up the latest Apple Silicon available. For instance: the SD 855 was equal to the A12 inside iPhone XS, the 865 was equal (or even faster) than the A13 inside Iphone 11. SD 888 was behind A14 from the iPhone 12 and SD Gen 1 was the same story being behind to A15 from iPhones 13's (and even sometimes were behind iPhone 12 performance). It was until Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 when they match up the A16 from iPhone 14 pro and actually surpassing in gaming performance. Probably 8 Gen 3 will equal the latest A17 Pro.

Amazing in depth honest review!!
I always go with the pro max options when I upgrade every 3-4 years. I get it for the screen size but I also enjoy photography as a hobby and the Max cameras are the better option this year. So after 4 years with an 11 Pro Max, I’ve preordered the natural titanium version pro max.
I personally wait until my phone inevitably breaks, so my upgrade cycles are closer to 6 years. But i have the same philosophy, buy the best of the new releases and enjoy what feels like a quantum leap in performance
I do the same thing I always get the best phone. I preordered the 15 pro max. Im currently using the 8 plus
I need to learn from your frugality. I upgrade every year and sometimes feel like it’s not worth my money, as the changes every version are not substantial.
Nice you got another iPhone X, but this time iPhone X 2023 🎉
You'll love it. Coming from the 11 pro is such a perfect upgrade. The phone is still great but at this point there's a world of difference between the new one. Upgraded too from the 11 pro max but to the 13 pro max back then. That already was a great jump. Want that titanium so bad. Also perfect for caseless as a shattered back glass won't ruin you financially anymore.
The whole 24/28/35mm camera thing is very important for people who are into photography and used to shooting with dedicated cameras. The difference between those focal lengths is significant when it comes to composition and suitable subject matter. I (and many others) have always thought 24mm was FAR too wide for a standard everyday lens. Provided the quality doesn't dip, I am very excited about being able to choose from the 3 settings.
Yes, I totally agree. And allowing the phone to correctly meter for the composition of those cropped focal lengths is actually a big deal.
Yeah but if you're into photography the LEICA lens on the Xiaomi 13 or the Samsung lens are widely better than the new iPhone. It's not a 3 new options to choose from that are going to save a worse camera from actually looking worse. Still, photography is more about the talent and perception anyway. Give this phone in the hands of a kid and the photos will look like crap. In the hands of a professional, I'm sure even this "new" old lens is going to look great.
Agree it’s a very nice feature. They narrowed it down to these because they divide nicely because of the pixel binning on the 48mp sensor like they said.
@@DimitriMoreiraXiaomi is garbage tho
It’s the same thing when you zoom the camera. They just use the mm names this time. I swear you all get so easily fooled by marketing
I really love the gray color for the iphone pro - but the thing is everyone wants it. and I'm looking at the 15 pro white - kinda makes sense to me considering the sides is no longer chrome looking - which was never my thing with the pro phones light color
Possibly I am in the 1% that likes the 15 series colors. Me and my wife upgraded this year from the 12 and we are very happy with the colors and feeling of the new devices. I bought the 15 Pro Max on black Titanium. It has a very nice industrial character on it. I also find my wife’s iPhone 15 in pink color very retro! It kinda reminds me of the old iMac with its transparent colored back!
Great video! The purpose for the 24, 28 and 35mm lenses is because these are VERY common focal lengths for street photographers. Especially 28 and 35mm, so I think the option to set and forget one of these as a native focal length is amazing.
They’re just digital cropping though. The 24mm lens is a fixed focal length. And so is the 77mm on the Pro and the 120mm on the Max. Everything in between these is just digital cropping. This is the main issue with the Max, the huge jump between the 24mm and the 120mm lens. TBH it was better having a 77mm than a 120mm for that very reason.
bro talking about apple new ‘design language’ they literally upped the fillet on the edges by 1mm and that’s it. 10 second job in cad app lmao
Been awhile since I watched you Dave, I'm digging the new hair style!
All the info I was looking for without the marketing hype. Thank you.
Very simplistic minimalistic and on point review.
Thanks for your tip about zoom. I was wondering whether I should get the Max for 5x zoom, _even though I prefer the non-Max because of its smaller size._ So I'm sticking with the iPhone 15 Pro.
Love that you appreciate leather patina look. I always loved apple leather cases.
Loved the statistic at the end. Super important!
