I was gifted an iPhone 15 Pro, delivered yesterday morning, by yesterday evening it was being sent back (Network couldn’t sort out my contract).
But during this time I got to play with it, I was upgrading for an iPhone 11 (normal, not pro) and was so excited for the huge difference, but I just didn’t feel it?!
Do you feel you’ve had a big difference from your previous upgrade? I took the same photo on my 11 and 15th and unless you zoomed in, you couldn’t really see the difference. The sound quality on the 15pro I could hear every breath when recording and I also felt like white colours were ‘too strong’ on the screen making videos/photos feel fake on the 15 pro compared to read on the 11. Are you noticing any of these? Did I just not get to play long enough?
Upgrading from 7 to 11 felt HUGE and I was expecting that again, especially with this being a Pro model.
These things are very over powered for what most people do with them, and that’s been true for a while. Remember Deep Blue, the supercomputer IBM made to play chess against Gary Kasparov? iPhones have had more processing power than that for so many years I can’t remember how long it’s been true.
Unless you want to use a new feature (and there aren’t a lot) or do some really demanding gaming, or need to send an emergency signal by satellite if you’re out of cell range (that was new in the 14), you can use an iPhone for 5 years or more without missing out on anything.
