I've upgraded every year since the original iPhone and the iPhone 14 Pro Max to iPhone 15 Pro Max is one of the worst upgrades ever. It's still a great iPhone though. However, the battery life has been very disappointing.

It just seems really inconsistent. I don't have much to base this on, but it feels like Apple made the 15 Pro faster at the expense of heat and battery efficiency, which is a shame because the speed difference is lost on me.

It really seems to make a difference when using the camera. My battery drained swiftly and I got heat warnings when shooting recently around some Mayan ruins. Yeah, it was hot, but my iPhone 14 Pro Max didn't suffer the same under such conditions.

I hope next year Apple focuses on battery efficiency.

There’s likely something else happening there because my same upgrade path has shown very strong battery on the 15PM. I feel comfortable only charging to 80% each day and end the day with 40-50% battery remaining.
