Yep. Reason I don’t do Samsung. It looks just weird (to me!) having these long phones
Nope no more leakage and I kept it cuz if something may eventually happen, I have AppleCare+
I would get a 15 plus if 120 refresh rate wasn’t something I didn’t notice
I got my 15 plus today, I’m happy with it, pretty much what I was expecting.
Two things regarding it. First, I’m glad I got it instead of the Pro Max. With a regular case and screen protector on the Plus it’s as heavy as I would like to go with a phone, the Pro Max would have been too heavy. Secondly, I had them install the Belkin tempered glass screen protector on it at the Apple Store. Never had Belkin before and it is the best I have ever used. My finger glides on it crazy smoothly.

why does apple says that the 15PM has the best battery, when all the tests says that is 15Plus?
i’m with 14PM but i think i will go for a 15 Plus this time… but i’m scared that the next updates will reduce the battery to make it worse than 15PM…
anyone knows if they did that with 14PM and 14 Plus?

The 14 Plus always had the better battery life, as the 15 Plus will continue to over the Pro Max. I do however feel that Apple will gimp the 16 Plus in this regard to make the 16 Pro Max the true king overall.
I'd get the plain Jane 15 if it wasn't nerfed at 60Hz. It's impossible to go back to it once you've used a 120Hz screen.
I disagree. I used my 14 Pro Max in low power mode often due to the rather poor battery life (in my personal experience anyway), so having the 15 Plus hasn't been a jarring experience at all for me.
So……
Been wondering what happened with this, and I was just looking at the lenses on my 15 pro max, and to my disbelief, I’m seeing some black gunk oozing out of all 3 lenses!!!!
Returning it tomorrow, will try to get some pics when I get home. WTA!!
It has been a month since you upgraded from a 2015 iPhone 6s to a 2023 iPhone 15.
Could you give us your impression of jumping onto a new phone 8 years more advanced?
Was at the Apple store and felt green was the best. But I don't really like any of them...which leaves black.
INSTFUDIAITS. Meaning: I’m not seeing that FUD is applicable in this situation

I still use my old 12 Mini. Preferring the smaller size and weight. However, I ordered the 15 Plus because of two main reasons: Not having to charge my phone 2-3 times a day, and I honestly miss having a bigger screen to work with. I'm getting older so the Mini isn't really cutting it for me anymore in that way. Looking forward to the arrival of the 15 Plus due to the vastly improved battery life, the bigger screen and the relatively small size and weight (I feel like I've seen most of the videos and it honestly doesn't seem like that much of a difference from my Mini. The camera is also a nice improvement. I always end up going case-less, so I think it'll be perfect for me. Oh, and I ordered the green(ish) one. Looks pretty great from what I've seen. 👍
I’m loving my green Plus more every day. I initially had some eye strain, thought it was related to screen protectors but now not so sure… either way it seems to have faded so.. 
It's awesome.
Taking pictures with the 6s had gotten depressing. I often didn't even bother. Now I'm delighted by what I see most of the time. Overused term, but the colors just "POP" now. The larger screen is just right, and the size difference is there but doesn't impact one-handed usage. The 6s was beginning to get laggy when typing and scrolling.
It's every bit a huge upgrade in every way of course, and I'm happy I waited so long. Really feels like zero regret upgrading because there isn't a single downside to it. The only thing I thought I'd miss is the home button, but it literally took me half a day before I just learn to swipe up from the bottom.
Interesting because I really felt zero desire to upgrade before the 15. I wasn't even paying attention to new releases that closely until this year. It's just the 6s hit the point of no return, so I tuned into the event. It's a happy accident I guess that the 15 happens to be a good year for getting some notable improvements over last year's.
I got the black iPhone 15 plus. Like BrightCanon, I came from a 13 PM. I did notice the difference losing the promotion display. However, it does not bother me. The screen is still very fluid to me and it doesn’t feel outdated. I know it seems like side move going from the 13 PM to 15 Plus but I just never utilized the Pro Max features other than promotion, which should be on every display.
The feel of the 15 Plus is awesome. It is much lighter in the hands. The curves on the sides are comfortable to hold. The black color and aluminum material is a marvel to look at. It is giving off a matte black and doesn’t shine much. I put mine right into a case but I didn’t see much fingerprinting. It would go away if there were any. I’m all for this iPhone 15 Plus.

After 12 days with my 15 plus I’m really enjoying it. Camera is better than my 13, phone is super smooth, and after adjusting to the bigger size and weight it’s been great.
I’m honestly glad I didn’t get the PM, I think the weight would have been annoying.

I came from the XR to the black 15 Plus and love having a larger screensize again. (I preciously had the 6 Plus). The extra battery life is amazing. I'm using the 2x zoom quite a lot more than expected. I can feel the may be the last phone upgrade in a long time..just changing the battery when it degrades too much may be good enough for me. To be honest, the XR speed is still pretty snappy to me too.
Black is the perfect colour for 15plus. Looks even better than black titanium of 15pm
Plus the matte texture of the black makes it even more aesthetically pleasing on the back and the sides/top. Can’t go wrong with black this year for regular 15 models.
