iPhone 15 Pro Max VS iPhone 14 Pro Max // Worth Upgrading? I'm torn

One of the best reviews I've seen, simple yet very detailed and precise.

You've always got the best reviews. No sensationalism and just facts, with your professional opinion sprinkled in where appropriate.

Thank you. I will not be upgrading. Yours is the first review that clarified the upgrade choice with BS laid it out clearly. I have been obsessing about this as it will be the first year I do not upgrade and I am tempted every day. Your review was a blessing for me. Thanks again.

One of the most comprehensive reviews of the iPhone camera. Appreciate it 🙏

I have the 14 pro max and have used it for cutaways and b cam shots for a year now. I've used it for everything, from bank commercials to hospitals and anything in-between. I absolutely love it and it has saved my butt on more than one occasion. But, ...this is what I've learned. You can only use the .5 or 1x lens and absolutely never use the sports mode or cinematic mood for anything. Sure, looking at it on the iPhone screen looks like a million bucks, but take my word for it, blow it up on a 27" i-mac screen while editing and you will see incredible amounts of garbage, gain and soft focus occur. The cinematic mode is almost comical how bad the faux depth of field looks. But as mentioned earlier stick with the .5 or 1x just using the auto stabilizer built into video mode and everything looks incredible, day and night difference. I look forward to getting the new 15 pro max for pro-res, which I'll ever never end up using.lol

Thanks for the excellent review! Is it possible cu record a non-PreRes video (normal 4K60p) directly on an external SSD?

not just the rounded edges actually makes it more vulnerable its also because the titanium is very hard and the glass is sensitive for the pressure, as well that they built the back of the phone differently the back glass has no metal against it as previous model did have for example.

Good point on the focal distance on the cameras. Got bothered by it after upgrading from the 12 Pro to the 14 Pro and was an added hassle when scanning barcodes like in MyFitnessPal. Was hoping they’d fix it or made it better on the 15 Pros but sadly they didn’t as what you showed here. Also appreciate how you showed the footage in ProRes log here. There is indeed a difference compared to shooting with the standard recording. Will still upgrade to the 15 Pro Max coming from the 14 Pro and will probably stay on it for a while till we receive better upgrades especially with the cameras. Thanks for your review on it in a filmmaker standpoint! :)

Superb review. Some very specific use cases that I didn't find elsewhere.

You're doing better dude, this what i want for the review, thanks man 🤝

My 14pm 100% battery health after 8 months, battery last all day and more with normal use. Usually upgrade every year but will wait until the 16.

I was literally waiting for this iphone review. It's about time man 🤝

Thanks again! You answered all my questions!
