I have waited for years to get the bigger Pro Max version, but I definitely think it's worth it this time...

I think the biggest reason is battery life.

Exactly the video I was looking for, thanks!

I can’t believe how different the 15 PM Max feels in hand to my 13 PM. The slightly narrower width and weight really do make a big difference. I can even use it one handed!

Best Review! To the point

I have a question! For my birthday this year, I upgraded from an iPhone 12 to an iPhone 15 Pro. It’s a good thing I have 30 days to test it out before making a commitment. Anyway, the phone is HEAVY. The seller claimed it’s “lighter” due to the titanium, but it feels like a brick! Is the phone above mine (iPhone 15 Max) heavier, similar or lighter? I am contemplating returning to an iPhone 14 or earlier due to the weight. I’m also a woman with petite hands. Advice? Thx in advance.

Finally somebody said the truth. I always say who will drop their iPhones in purpose? Who wants to brake their iPhone in purpose? I love my iPhone 15 pro max. Coming from 14 pro max.

I love the feeling of iphone pro 15 on the hand, much more than the 14, might be the curved edges but it just feels better

You bring up a lot of good points it’s entertainment for sure

Is it slippery to hold Will you drop it easily 🤷✌️🇨🇦🙏

Hey, could you give me some insight to your battery life on 14 pro? Can you go from 7am to 7pm with 2h social, some navigation, 2h spotify, and some casual gmail, docs, websearch? Can pro max do this with 20% left?

I'm glad you said everything you said! Your a REAL reviewer and everything you said made sense !!!!!

Great video, Steve. I got the 15 Pro Max on Saturday, and this is my third Max. I never hold a phone one-handed, so the larger size is not a problem for me. What has been a problem is how hot the phone gets after 15 minutes of talking. Holy crap, we're talking HOT. Has happened at least 4 times. I wrote Apple to advise them. Also, my battery went from 94% to 59% in 3 hours. Not good. I can only hope it settles down soon or I'm sending it back and keeping my 14 Pro Max. Interestingly, I was on IOS 17 beta and did not have one battery problems (many were) and now I do.....................go figure! As far as durability, I always put a case and screen protector on so for me, I doubt I will have an issue. 🙂

I really wanted the Pro Max for the battery life but just can't commit to a phone I can't easily use with one hand

My Wife's 13 Pro is such a beast in Sept 2023. It's never seen below 65% in a days heavy use. All she does is watch movies & that phone is still a 2 day phone easily. I'm a Samsung Guy. I left Apple when the Note 10+ came out & now have the S22 Ultra. Best phones I've ever owned. Besides my Wife's 13 Pro, they did that phone good!

Absolutely worth it. I change it from 14pro to 15pro max. Super happy with!!! My first year with max phone also !!!

With a case on, not being able to confidently hold the phone in my hand and thumb swipe left complexly to the right is a deal breaker for me for the pro max. That being said, the lightness factor did almost bring me to buy it. But that single hand one thumb swipe is too critical for me. Regarding the heat "Issue". Unbox Therapy did a full stress test on all iphones and there was none... Must be a corner case of some folks heating the phone by stressing it through games etc and then fast charging it. Titanium doesn't thermally conduct nearly as well as Aluminum. Again, not a widespread problem if any problem at all based on the HW unboxed very thorough test.

I have a 15 pro and pro max and keep waffling between the two before return date. The distribution of the max is great but with the larger size, it's still hard for me to reach all corners even with bigger hands. But I do want the bigger battery size especially when I travel overseas. I've never owned a Max or Plus sized iPhone ever and the change is still taking a lot of growing pains. Pocketability is also important for me but using a test esim with the pro, I definitely sense it getting warm under tasks I wouldn't expect it to.

I think those durability test are a good gauge on how likely we gonna break your iPhones. The amount of pressure and drops we do on our iPhones for many years will be accumulative damage to our iPhone but titanium is just too weak

Of course

My iPhone 8 Plus is still working great. Just replaced the original battery 6 months ago and still at 100% battery health. It looks like “Bendgate” is making a come back with the new Titanium iPhone 15’s. They are super easy to bend and the back glass seems easily breakable according to several KZfaq videos I have seen. My honest opinion 98% of people that buy a new iPhone every year waste their money. Only 1-2% of people actually utilize the most advanced features of the newest phone.

dont sleep on the Plus models. The battery is diesel.

Has the black color degraded in 6 months like we have seen in some videos? 😊

my 15pro had terrible battery the first day but that was probably because all the updates and transfers but the next day after a whole day it at 70 percent

Glad I pick up iPhone 15 plus no worrying on battery life

Have had one in hand for a little over two days now. The 15 Pro Max feels 2-3x lighter than my iPhone 13 Pro. I don't think the actual weight difference when put on a scale is probably that dramatic, but it is absolutely noticeable. The 15 Pro Max is far more manageable as a daily driver than the older Max series. This likely comes at the cost of durability to the back glass, but if you plan on using a case that probably won't matter. No overheating issues either. No problems with screen alignment, factory defects, or other hysterics that tech KZfaqrs are pointing out (though I don't doubt some people, somewhere in the world likely got faulty units). If you need to upgrade or were thinking about it, now isn't a bad time. If you have a 14 Pro Max, I'd probably wait another generation or two as apart from USBC and weight savings you aren't getting much.

My hands are too small for the max. Wish I could get it- the bigger screen would be nice. I got the 15 pro.

Aghh a common sense video, lovely. I’m loving my pro max with fine weave case. Upgraded from a 8 plus and wow, just wow. I think there’s another point to the battery and heat issue. Tsmc is absolutely smashing out millions of a17 chips, some of those are going to be perfect in the centre of the wafer chips and some on the very edge so there’s going to be a bit of a silicone lottery going on. And apple will release new software that tackles poorer chip quality down the line I believe

I love android and i have been an android fan my whole life! Deep inside i really want s23 ultra but i owe myself a good upgrade, i ordered 15 pro max ❤

I have bigger hands than probably anyone in this comment section, like bear paws big. I have the 12 mini and 13 pro. The 12 mini is a dream to hold... and the 13 pro is even too heavy for extended use. So I don't know what you people with regular sized hands are doing.

I liked the idiot that flew to Australia just to drop his iPhone 15. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

I must be an outlier but I want something even bigger than the Max, and the rumored 0.2" increase for next year isn't enough 😂 All that's left is a folding iPhone but it looks like Apple is not in any rush to release one, 2025 at soonest is my prediction

Size matter... not the weight.. i prefere iphon 15 pro.

This guy is definitely coming acter Jerry

I got my 15 pro max today.. it feels smaller and more portable than my 14 pro max. It’s lighter and narrower

Dolphins dropped 70 on broncos, not 60..my browns will see you in AFC championship

For me the question is, it it worth getting the smaller phone with the lower battery capacity

I miss the days when iPhones lasted sometimes a whole week without charging.

You need to see the JerryRigEverything! This will be known as the Failtanium phone!!

That hidious notch - when they finally give us a cleaner screen, I might consider an iphone 🎉

First of all it's easy for you to say put a case on it but 90% of iPhone users do not use cases they never use cases never 90% of normal iPhone users never use cases that's why your screens are always cracked and second of all the phone is not titanium if you look it up do the research it's 0.05% titanium
