Same here and it’s pissing me off. It was bad enough with the 14 pro that always on wouldn’t stay on as a night stand clock while charging. Now they add standby which also turns off but also make regular always on turn off constantly.
If I put my 14 and 14 pro max phones next to each other the 14 pro stays on the 15 pro turns off in 30 seconds or less.
WTF?!!!
This the first I’ve heard of this issue. I think if you get an exchange the odds are overwhelmingly in your favor. This is just a case of bad luck.
After doing my transfer from my 14PM over to my 15PM. I noticed a darker area on the side. I went into my bathroom because it has better lighting than my bedroom. I saw the weird random box and then two minutes later it was gone. Shown in photo timestamps too. First picture at 9:23pm, second at 9:25pm
Could it have been because the phone was warmer after transferring? Causing the area to appear? Anyone know much about the build of the phone and what that part is? Hope this isn’t anything significant.

Then why is it different from last years 14 pro? If burn in were that much of a concern, why even claim to have an always on display at all? I’m sitting here watching tv. Both 15 pro max and 14 pro max nearby and only the 15 turns off. It’s ridiculous
Besides burn in can be mitigated by pixel shifting.
besides the natural not doing it for me nothing I can really complain about. I am exchanging for a blue tomorrow though. I go case-less always and the rounded edges are a welcomed addition and the biggest selling point for me vs. my 14PM which is going to be my Dad's soon
How big of a difference are you seeing? I’m noticing the same thing from 14 pro max
Hey! I might be having the same issue, do you have any pictures of it? For me it looks like the right side is perhaps more reddish than the left when I'm on white pages.
Seems like a lot less issues here going on compared to 14PM last year at same time.
It’s exactly the same as the 11, 12, 13 and 14 iPhones, all had screen uniformity issues and it’s just luck of the draw which one you get.
Search around the forums and you’ll see all the same complaints.
For me it will turn of standby with those on or off. Same with the 14 pro. It’s a software design and it sucks.
What’s worse is the choice to change the existing always on functionality from the 14 pro to the 15 pro as now it turns off quickly under more circumstances than before.
I hope apple fixes this. It makes always on completely useless.
Having the worst time with the on screen keyboard compared to my previous Pro. I keep accidentally hitting numbers and symbols as i’m typing regular letters and i have no idea how they keep popping up
There is another durability test video out on YouTube as well ( I think the guy is in India and not U.S based) but the pro max back glass doesn't break in his bend test. So I think it varies.
I don't know anyone who has had this issue with any iPhone from the X all the way through to the 15. This must be an issues older people must have ( no offense intended to anyone older 50+).
Oled is prone to uniformity issues. That doesn’t look bad at all. My 65” lg oled is way worse. If you can see it in normal content I would swap it out. Dead pixels are way worse.
I am hoping this can be addressed with a software update but my 14Pros pictures were much sharper and clearer. My 15Pro is definitely blurry and way more noisy than my 14Pro ever was.
