iPhone 15/15 Pro Impressions: Not Just USB-C! 

I was working at a senate hearing today and heard Microsoft execs saying they watch this channel.

They know the power of marketing

Bro got a shoutout from one of, if not, the biggest company in the world

except it means marques is bought so you can't really rely on him for apple reviews any more

@@ergwehgrTbh he criticizes them as well if he doesn’t like something about their products

Wouldn't expect anything less from the humble guy

That’s awesome to hear!

Marques is the goat of RU-vid And the goat of tech

I'm not surprised

tbh he has to other wise you can easily see from mile away some low ego youtuber making a drama out of it

lmao

There hasn't been any innovation by Apple in iPhones for almost 10 years now....they bring some minor improvements year after year (most of which do not even offer any perceivable benefit anymore)..... and they keep charging a bomb for these ......time to move on folks...

​@@vaibhav1100who asked?

Would love them to introduce that shit

I would love if they used that quote. lol

Good

Great 👍

Nice 👍

Thumbs up

Great

While Samsung will be 3 steps ahead with another innovation technology that will take Apple another 3-5 years to call it something else to manipulate Apple users thinking this is all new Apple technology.

Yeah cause if they don’t, they won’t have anything to sell you! I might actually switch to Android at this point. Apple are thieves

They the best technology ON THE IPHONE, not in any other smartphone. It’s Apple users that probably think that is something new cuz they never heard of it and are highly disinformed about this stuff

Still no 10x optical zoom that samsung had in 2013 on the galaxy S4 zoom.

It's called courage.

Yes but don't you think apple is the kind of brand that actually promotes people getting new iPhones each year? Low repairability just proves that point. If iPhones were repairable and cheaply repairable I doubt that any iPhone can last less than 3 years.

You have a point

tbh only rich people change their iPhones every year at this point

No ip 16 still the same, no significant upgrades 🤣

I’m just moving to Samsung Apple is so disappointing now

Exactly. And they were forced by politicians in Europe. 🤣

With no fast charging 😂😂😂

Yep, and if it weren't for the EU, we'd have to deal with lightning for another decade. This event was lame.

@@WestCoastAce27 when the EU can make better iPhones than Apple. 😂😂

@@JesusIsELOHIMthe fast charging is MagSafe lol that’s always the catch

Early to see the same iphone from 3 years ago with a different name

True

Lol that explains 😂

Lol

First time seeing that

😅😅😅who will buy iPhone 16 then😅😅😅well..apples sheeps will buy anything 😅😅😅

its not bad idea leaving out for future phones….in my opinion technology is getting way too fast. How can you improve a phone that has everything? That’s what people want from apple but in the end how can they improve….Apple can be a pain sometimes but i understand their view about innovations

But the 40 series isn't better at all... the 4060 is slower, for example.

What kind of features they could have add rigt now?

​@@RavnHoodit depends on the card. 4070ti is almost as fast as a 3090 or in some use cases outperforms a 3090, but the 4060 is worse than it's predecessor except for energy usage, it would be better suited as a 4050 but Nvidia set the 40 series names kinda weird.

Yeah man 😊

I jumped when I heard Tim say his name fr

I didn't watch the keynote... What time in the keynote was his review used?

I mean if he ever said anything bad about the phone then he wouldve been banned from the event.

@@brentomagicliterally at the beginning

🤣

💀☠️💀💀

who is we?

The chips are really what’s worth the most.

@@jPlanerv2literally hundreds of millions of people

probably in the next iPhone as a big new feature or if they are good with an update.

Nahhh, that's android level customisation, apple won't do that

With a shortcut you could do that

That's a feature for iPhone 16 my friend.

@@templeogbo5878sim sure iPhone will get it in 5 years or so

Did you have the 14 before?

Because he's literally the biggest tech RU-vidr here. He has a lot of followers and has a reputation of being transparent, no matter which company it is, and he doesn't take bribes or sponsorships just to make him say nice things about a product. Even Apple knows how much influence marques has.

And the usb thing. Is like.. come on.. 😂😂😂

​​@@acutelilmint8035yea I'm amazed how the usb-c thing is a wow factor 😂. Its old to every one else.

This guy has almost 17.5 million subs because he is the BEST out there

@@dice1331*LOTS of the chap’s comments are silly, though:* The Pro features are literally “never seen before”, and yet he says it is not that. Starting from a 3-nm SoC with 35 trillion operations per second machine learning engine to the brightest screen to the titanium alloy enclosure to 4K60FPS raw video to satellite services. Also, the point of USB speed the chap is making is silly, because most professionals will never use it anyway as Wi-Fi is already super fast for file transfer. It is also weird that he is suggesting that Apple should lie that fast-charging can be only possible with USB-C, while it was perfectly possible with Lightning, and the reason why Apple does not do it is to not kill the battery even faster than it is degrading. Also, the chap does not understand the fact that the strength of titanium is needed to make the case thinner and even lighter, it is not about the strength per se. Finally, the idea that USB is the main feature is the stupidest yet. The most strategic change is Apple’s entrance to the hardware ray tracing acceleration game. It is already made several AAA gaming coming to iOS, but this will surely shortly be followed by iPadOS, visionOS and MacOS as the technology will be a part of M3 chips.

i mean, he's the best tech youtuber and people need to understand that ASAP.

@@dwoz7777 MKBHD < Joe Biden

​@@unoalxwhat?

​@icestorm9579 He's obviously stating Joe Biden is a better tech youtuber. It's 2023 he ain't president for no reason.

Totally has nothing to do with the topic of the video

I’m keeping my 14promax getting rid of lightning chargers is crazy

When did he mention MKBHD? I can't seem to find it.

It doesn't show how legit he is. Just shows that his opinion aligns with what Apple wants to hear and that he's big enough to be heard.

at the intro when tim cook talks about macbook@@Autunite

This review wasn't shot just after the apple event. It might have been shot weeks before and released today, since there are embargos on releasing videos before actual product launch.

@@daniellima4391 well they don't just quote random people now do they?

I literally agree with you on this

he is literally better than that cringe Mrwhosetheboss

Flossy carter

From iPhone X to 14 is a whole new level. Way more worth it than switching from 14 to 15

Meanwhile I’m still out here with my 8Plus and doing fine imo.

It would might be better to order a 14 pro max

I think It could Last you 10 years actually

Am I allowed to enter this chat with a Redmi??

The Environment will be grateful.

Same thoughts from an iphone 13 pro max user here!

You can wait forever to upgrade because each year will just be incremental updates.

@@privacyowl but they add up

I’m also an 11 Pro Max user and I’m in the same boat. I’m not a Luddite, I want to upgrade. And it’s not a money thing, I’ve had a new phone budget set aside for a couple years now. It just seems wrong to get a new phone when the one I have still works perfectly fine (even the battery) and it does everything I need it to.

The 'TOP' phone has AI integrated into the OS and that definitely isn't the iPhone. 😂

Just out of curiosity when was the last time you have used your lighting port for data?

​@@nbdyknws4446nobody does that because it's an awful experience.

Having just switched from the 12 to the 15 pro, definitely worth it (but the base 15 is still a good upgrade if you don't care about usb 3, promotion, or the telephoto camera)

@@nbdyknws4446 probably the same time anyone used a type C for data.

Agreed. That magic feeling doesn’t happen with Apple anymore.

Which is a good thing. People upgrading their phones every year is not good for the environment. Also this means that iPhones have insane resell value even after 2-3 years.

As an android user I can stop laughing when I see "an now with usbC" when I have such since 5year already! But from a price tag apple start to become a premium affordable compare to Samsung

Dynamic Island is worth it plus USB C

@@AlexRodriguez-px2hz I guess it’s a win for everyone now that Apple was forced to retire the lightning port. Considering the sheer number of iPhones Apple sells every year, it’s good for the environment now that people will in general have to buy and carry less cables. But yea claiming USB C as a selling point is so ridiculous lol…what is this 2013?

That would be crazy expensive. It makes more financial sense to have one phone that they can sell everywhere.

Yeah, as if they would give all the features in one go. Need to save something for next year. Pretty sure they will make a big deal of faster transfer speeds and fast charging next year.

OnePlus got absolutely roasted in 2016 for putting USB-C in their 1+2 phone, but keeping the internal USB2 speeds

I think it would've been a bad decision both financially for Apple themselves, and also for the consumers. Therefore, I think they preferred just going all out and incorporating USB-C into the iPhone.

USB-C is also vastly superior to lightning, which I don't think they've really updated since its inception. So. Win-win for everyone except Apple who made bank selling licenses to 3rd party charger resellers.

dawg what are you sayin 250k yen is not even $1,700 ☠

@@ryry7677 bro just forgot how shit the economy is in Japan right now

i checked the website and the 15 pro 256gb is for 174,800 yen (£872) which is way less than the £1099 in the UK.

For some odd reason the blue titanium 1T pro max won’t ship out till oct 6th but also upgrading from a 12 pro max

@@PenarDokkaebi that’s strange, I have a tracking number from FedEx and it’s scheduled for between 9:00 and 1:00 tomorrow.

Apple could easily win over the customer base of competitors if they stopped. I'm really disliking Android more with every new version released (yes, I'm already on Android 14 beta). Apple should stop locking features such as loading apps from outside their app store, or actually using new tech right when it comes out (USB-C shouldn't have taken anywhere this long, it's actually absurd).

So we are cucks?

That's really the perfect way to explain Apple

Well they wouldn't have ever done USB-C if they weren't forced, so you're lucky it's even happening @@grafando

so disappointed they didn't release a periscope lense, and jus added a new lens existing camera...so lame of them

with a "more powerful cpu and gpu that might take up more power", and a battery size that didn't change, why talk about it if it demotivate people to buy the phone?

Agreed. And hardly any info released regarding charging speeds for any of the phones. Surely they should have taken advantage of the USB C port and upgraded the charging speed!

3mm chip should take less battery than 5mm chip, so better battery has to be expected. However I believe they even shrinked battery because of smaller size of chassis@@HolyEMP

yet you still cant focus on the outside through a dirty window

why are you taking a photo through a dirty window...@@dXXPacmanXXb

​@@nonamepoo2892that's how he keeps tabs on people from his abandoned warehouse home

The 14 pro has 24mm equivalent too though

No

Interesting. wonder if that was the Lytro?

@@hellogreg1973yup I think so!

only took 10yrs lol

Which company?

Guess we won’t get Dark Sky implementation for another 7 years then

Shooting “log” is a major update too

The chip is always gonna become better, these upgrades are literally designed for people 4 generation behind to upgrade , the people who upgrade are bunch of bozos, I know some broke people who did

Oh yeah that happend alot on my work where ppl asked for a cable and i said i own iphonce … 😂

i feel they was obliged to do it because they run of innovation ideas

If apple get there way, ur friends still won't be able to help as apple are still making their usb c cables proprietary. They will only work with iphones. My sister bought an ipad mini a few months ago, and it has usb c, the usb c cable that came with it won't charge my samsung.

I heard the Apple chargers would only work good with an iPhone but that might be a rumor

not really worth buying a new version of the phone over the 13,14 tho

I don’t have that issue because everyone I know has an iPhone

Why not just switch to android then?

That’s also my biggest annoyance and it’s happened maybe once in the last 2 years

i know like 2 people with android. usually works out w iphone

Yeah, I can agree to this.

What quated**

being quoted by apple is more of an achievement for apple than by markus, u corporate fangirl.

Congratulations 😍

@@AMabud-lv7hyexactly, it’s all marketing.

@@AMabud-lv7hytf does that even mean?

They can update that in tho

Yes!

I mean... This is still Apple we're talking about here. God forbid they let you use your device in the way that makes sense for you.

@@exjts true

My thoughts. Itll be s “feature” in the next iphone. I love Apple, but stopped “upgrading” because they create a problem or purposely miss a feature so they can fix it in the next iphone. Theyre so running out of ideas

Right lol

apple simply focuses on stuff the average consumer actually uses. most people buying a base model iphone have never transferred anything over usb, they don't care about 120hz, or lots of zoom, or anything like that really. they just want a reliable phone that will work for years with a camera that's easy to use and takes good pictures.

@@aidan8583 apple users wouldn't use fast charging?

iPhone 16 pro the same phone at the 15 but now the action button supports multiple actions. 🤦‍♂️ they are getting ridiculous and lack innovation at apple these days.

Samsung already does that for some years now. No need to wait for the future for that.

@@DonTreply-dq5et The are getting their edges. So, they must save advanced features for the next gen XD

Or just don't buy an iPhone and customize everything that can be customized with software. That's the beauty of Android. You can play it safe and keep it stock or modify the shit out of it.

@@DonTreply-dq5etwhat else is there to innovate? These devices can only do so much and they already do so much haha. And I wouldn’t be so pessimistic about the action button mapping, I have a feeling it will be a feature in an OS update.

When updates cease, that means it’s time for an upgrade

​@@fulaan1ehh depends

same , i am using Iphone 6s, thinking now its Finally the time. Last year was gonna do it, but waited for USB-C.

You could also buy something that doesn’t get programmed to become obsolete

Of course

I decided to wait even longer than that, Still using my X and it still works as new. 1 of the main reasons I've wanted to upgrade was when it got that Night Mode feature, still wasn't overall enough to upgrade. Then I said, I'll just do it about every 5 generations starting from this X. This way, even if the updates aren't so big, they will always be a big update for me.

Switch to android and jump forward 4 generations

@@hotbeefymcd8162 Nah chill. I can't stand android phones on so many levels.

It's expensive to get rid of a cable! Lol

Same here. I have a 12 Pro, but the USB-C is what has sold me on a 15 Pro.

then get a 14 pro max and stay with it for years since is a machine that last 5/6 years and not 1 year only

Very true that you can feel it inside your pocket with the Switch

To simulate the original feel, it is supposedly better with haptics to make it “feel” like the old switch did. Perhaps even more pronounced.

the iphone 15 still has mute switch

OnePlus ftw

I mean he really is the biggest tech youtuber/influencer in the world. He is HIM

Agreed, I’m just wondering how it’s even gonna Work lol

This ! It makes processor upgrades way more meaningful.

I think its purely because they introduced native AI upscaling into Metal. So the game will probs run on like 70% resolution, upscaled. Might be barely hitting 30 fps as well lol

Same with Death Stranding, kinda insane

I mean it already has an android port in the form of a quest 2 game

Love the look of the titanium tho I’m ngl but that’s not worth me dropping a bag on a phone LOL

@@amaanthelengI feel the same way I have the 11 pro max but AT&T offering me $950 for my phone and told me I will only have to pay $9.50 a month for three years

You not 5G yet that is a reason to upgrade

@@nykedria252 in reality 5G isn’t that great yet for that to be a reason to upgrade

there is 5g all around me but the bandwidth for 5g is so bad all around that its slower than lte @@amaantheleng

Next year’s base model will likely get the A17 chip and hence also fast USB-C.

finally they got to usb-c 3.0 :))) iphone 16 will get 3.1 and iphone 17 will get 3.2 then they will be finally only 4 years behind of Samsung :))

Do people really think such companies plan their products only a year ahead?

The fact that they have a limit on speed like that is atrocious...shame on apple

Got to ask, have you ever used the port for data on a modern iPhone?

@jordanriochiuputra5911 excuse me?

i think hes asking@@vmatt

@@ggoent_ Oh I see. I would guess 28mm is x1.2 and 35mm is x1.5 or thereabouts.

Yeah, I think there is an ad on this too. Personally I missed the 28mm and am dismayed almost all phones' main camera have gotten wider to 24-ish mm.

Yeah. Cos if you're a photographer, you wouldn't have a proper camera on you. 🤡

Im going for the 13mini, perfect phone size!

Mini pro would be class

Yea, I need the 13 mini coming down in price a little more 😅

The only way for mini to make a comeback is in the SE 4th gen form. I think, either XR or mini will return as the next iPhone SE

Waiting for a 13 mini to arrive in mail. I'm very excited no longer having to carry a brick in my pockets.

Good call …

i trade my phones in once they’re paid off and have equity. I got 830 for my iphone 12 pro max for the iphone 15 pro max so i’m really only paying 3-400 and yea there’s no big differences but your phone won’t hold equity.

⁠@@reyg3626how did you get 830 for the 12 pro max? I have the same one and apple trade-in only offers 450

Word I got a 13 pro max and I’m not upgrading untill the 18 comes out fuck that lol

I’m not upgrading because I have a thing for even numbers so I have the 14 promax and I will do the 16 promax when it comes out

😂

Let me answer that: No (it's literally the same phone just with USB c, if that's interesting for you)

Finally, an apple user who uses logic, you have my respect

be careful Steve, these are trigger words for fragile ones :)

i still have my 12 pro watching these reviews makes more sense again not much change got a choice change the failing battery (79%) or upgrade to a new iphone or just wait again 🤔 not sure yet still not convinced

They have no reason to speed up wired transfer speeds for files, they want people to buy the upgraded icloud storages

I agree with you guys. Can upgrade my 12 pro to non pro 15 for free as it’s a work phone. They won’t let us get the pro anymore for some reason. Was able to upgrade to the 14 last year too and didn’t. Idk if it’s worth it for adding usb3 and losing the 3rd camera. These new phones add very little reason to upgrade over the last few years imo

You still can on the iphone 15, but not on the pro version!

USB 2 TRANSFER SPEEDS LMAO. What is this 2013?

​@@EuroNationThey're clueless how behind this iphone is 😅😅😅

​@@EuroNationon something that costs close to a thousand dollars nonetheless lmao

​@@EuroNation800$ with usb 2 is crazy 😂

I dont mind incremental upgrades at all, means you dont gotta upgrade every year

@@Htiy which is a good thing. With the ever increasing cost of phones, a yearly upgrade is unsustainable (or unwise) for so many. I’m comfortable at 2 years and even that is a very first world kinda compromise

​@@Htiyeven if the upgrades are significantly, you don't need to upgrade every year, why upgrade a perfectly working phone?

Processor improvements may improve battery life, all things being equal. Especially if there is a process node shrink, such as going to 3nm.

Samsung is the only company left making HUGE upgrades every year.

I need to look into that.

the video showed it working with a samsung external ssd

That’s probably one of the only good things. I’m not too impressed by the others.

@@NMEofdaST8 Very cool!

I TOTALLY MISSED THAT! Thanks. I gotta look that up. I’m looking to downsize but also would like to only use Mac for video (iPad/iPhone)

I was excited about the new switch as it makes a lot of sense, but I can also say I do the same thing regarding checking while the phone is in my pocket.

@@jacejohnson7113 I was disappointed about the removal of the switch as well, but I hope the haptic feedback will make that not a huge problem.

@@tomcorwine3091 @jacejohnson7113 i suppose, the issue would be, you wouldnt know if it went from silent to loud or loud to silent. because either way youd get the same haptic

Only coming in iphone 16 Pro Max Pro

I want to say you can make so it works that way besides the silent switch using shortcuts. But I’m not 100% sure.

​@@MAXlMUSyou can make counters in shortcuts to achive it but I mean not that fast.

I bet they'll add that with a future software update.

he just saved u from stupid purchase be happy very happy

Ow yeah that sounds perfect for the few movies that actually get recorded on iPhone. I don’t think we are there yet for high budget movies but at least for some shots it’s gotten to a point you can record with a phone even on those. Imagine you might have a movie scene in a very cramped space, might be to small to have the actors and a huge camera setup in there. But obviously you’re gonna be shooting maxed out for a movie so that’s a lot of data. This way no need for a dedicated phone for this with maxed storage. Just any random one and connect a storage drive. Also it’s gonna take more time as well but they are clearly showing interest in making movies with the Apple vision thing in mind. As far as I know the iPhone is now the only camera that can record those depth videos they showed off. In a few years we might see those.

@@xanderwusky3001The misconception is blockbusters. There are dedicated cameras for high budget filmmaking. You are overlooking other productions, like short films, documentaries, indies, and music videos. Even budget films like ‘Tangerine’ were shot on iPhones.
