At the launch of the new iPhone, I upgraded my phone (iPhone xs max) to the iPhone 15 pro.
I assumed that it would be a bigger upgrade for me, since a few years has passed, but oh man this is a huge let down. Sadly don't have a return policy where I live in Europe.
The camera somehow seems worse. I'm not saying the camera is bad, but it does not seem better photos than my previous phone. I don't feel like I can just take out my phone and take a picture of something quickly anymore. Now I gotta focus and take more time with it.
The battery is not good. I'm a very light user, yet the battery drains just as fast as my xs max and that phone has 85% battery health.
The only real upgrade for is the 120hz screen. Charing with a usb-c cable or lightning really does not effect me at all.
Anyone else experiencing the same?
Not experiencing your issues. Also, if you live in a EU country, you have customer's protection law covering you to return the product. If you live in a 3rd world country, I'm sorry for you, you should have spent your money more wisely on something else.
Also please note that the technological innovation graph pretty much flattened over the years, don't expect any new changes even for the next 5 years too! Right now the biggest bottlenecks are batteries, but since they work via chemical reaction, material researchers need to find a new way to store power.
I live in Sweden, so not a 3rd world country. I just bought it in store and not online.
