Undecided between iPhone 15 & iPhone 15 Pro... pls help...

[Caesar]

Hi all,

Am currently using my iPhone 11 and will be changing to iPhone 15 (or Pro) this Friday...

Definitely not getting the big screen size ones.

But really undecided between the regular & the pro.

My usage:
- Mainly WhatsApp
- General surfing
- Youtube
- No gaming
- I take tons of photos / videos BUT... have no videography / photography skills so never ever use advanced cam features

Can help give some input?

Thank you...

[leon0079]

got budget just go for pro.

more future proof

check out the price first to see whether is there any big price gap.

Pro camera (Sony IMX sensor) better since u mentioned taking photos & videos.

Non-Pro the camera is Apple in-house sensor iirc.

Nope, Apple don‘t do inhouse sensor.

Budget allows get Pro for future proofing since it seems you do not upgrade your device that frequently.
Otherwise, non pro. Pretty simple unless colours come into consideration too.

Sorry my mistake, using Sony sensor but never mentioned which IMX series.

 

[ragnarok95]

Sony sensor with stack design.

I'm using ip14pro before, and just downgraded to ip15 few month ago, no regret

somehow, I felt the pro camera no as good as I expected, so for me non pro good enough...

just go  store and play with the phones see which one you like best

Nope. Colors don’t come into consideration for me

Always take classic colors like black.

Also, I'll probably change phone (after THIS round) in maybe 3-5 years' time.

 

[Caesar]

Any more inputs from anyone?

 

[anthonygreenisreal]

Spend a bit more to get the pro.
If you are going to keep it for like 4 to 5 years. Just go for the best now

3 - 5 years then go for the best, since that's the usual support timeline before IOS drops support and EOL iP15 series, referencing previous history.

Will be getting the new phone shortly this evening…

Can people survive without getting a casing for the phone?

 

[Caesar]

Ok… just to wrap this up, just got the iPhone 15 Pro less than an hour ago after a long tussle

 

[Caesar]

On my 1st charge, do I charge to 100% or cap it at 80%?

And what are some of the first things i need to do for my new phone?

tks!

only if you are prepared for the consequences which includes scratch and cracking it...

whether it will happen is beyond anyone knowledge

On my 1st charge, do I charge to 100% or cap it at 80%?

And what are some of the first things i need to do for my new phone?

tks!

i will turn on the 80% limit and just charge as u like.
