Lol anyway you can buy 15/15 pro if you want, I wouldn’t after seeing this graph.
Def moving to 15 pro max from my 14 pro. These results mean nothing to me! I don’t use many Chinese apps, and don’t game. Looks like the 15PM will be a huge battery life upgrade for me coming from the 14P.

I don’t think it is related to Chinese app

Honestly it should be Apple intentionally wants to burn the battery, just like what happen to 14 pro series, so people have to buy a new iPhone earlier.

The problem with a Chinese blog is you don't know if it's a state sponsored effort to discredit Apple and promote their own phones. Super unlikely that the 15 pro max and the pro are so bad compared to the 14.

A17 pro seems rushed imo

The camera improvements don’t seem substantial either on the pro’s year over year and probably even against iPhone 15

It more comes down to if you want a slightly different design / color and titanium, else hold onto your current seek out a 14 pro / max for much cheaper second hand or a 15 regular / plus

Apple is overconfident this time
