Battery Life & Multimedia

Battery life on the iPhone 15 Pro is amazing and lasts around 16 to 25 hours on a single charge depending on what you are doing on the phone. The battery can last even longer if you aren’t using the phone much. Charging speeds and times vary depending on the type of charger used but you can expect around 1 to 2 hours for a full charge.

As for multimedia the iPhone 15 Pro Max is amazing starting with the amazing camera. It has a triple rear camera that includes a 48 megapixel main camera, 12.7 megapixel telephoto camera and a 13.7 megapixel ultra wide camera. The phone also has a 12 megapixel front facing camera.

The camera quality is amazing and the colors are spectacular even in low conditions. The cameras are simply breathtaking, and the images are beautiful to look at. I have never seen cameras this great on many other smartphones.

The cameras on the iPhone 15 Pro Max are some of the best cameras ever on a smartphone and are on par with competitors like the Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra and the Google Pixel 8 Pro.

Aside from the amazing cameras the iPhone 15 Pro Max is great for multimedia tasks and it can pretty much anything multimedia related.

From playing music or watching videos to drawing and photo and video editing the iPhone 15 Pro Max can do it all and much more with ease. Not only that but multimedia tasks run smoothly and look amazing on the breathtaking display of the phone.

The iPhone 15 Pro Max has 8GB RAM and 256GB, 512GB or 1TB internal storage depending on the storage option you choose. But the internal storage is not expandable because there is no Micro SD card slot on the phone.

Internet & Connectivity

The iPhone 15 Pro Max can connect to the internet via WiFi or mobile data and it also has the ability to create a WiFi hotspot to share mobile data with other smartphones. The web browser runs perfectly fine and is fast, responsive and very quick with loading pages and websites.

Any apps that use an internet connect as well as other online features on the phone run perfectly fine as well with no issues. As for connectivity the iPhone 15 Pro Max has a wide range of connectivity features starting with WiFi, Bluetooth and NFC. It also has a GPS, gyro, accelerometer, compass, barometer and emergency SOS via satellite. The phone also has Face ID and support for wired and wireless charging.

The only connectivity feature the iPhone 15 Pro Max lacks is a headphone jack which is a bit of a let down because many people need or want to use earphones with their iPhone. But aside from that it has all the connectivity features you could possibly need to get things done your phone.

Apps & Gaming

When it comes to apps the iPhone 15 Pro Max does not let you down as it can run just about any app with ease. Apps open instantly and perform exceptionally well without any lag or crashes. I have not seen any problems with opening or running apps on the phone and the run very smoothly.

As for gaming the iPhone 15 Pro Max is a very powerful phone for playing games. It can run almost any mobile game that works on an iPhone and the graphics look incredible. The phone runs popular mobile games with Fortnite and Call Of Duty mobile with ease and is even capable of running console games like Resident Evil Village and Assassin’s Creed Mirage.

I highly recommend the iPhone 15 Pro Max for gaming as it will excel your expectations. You won’t have any problems running your favourite mobile games on the iPhone 15 Pro Max and they always look incredible.

iPhone 15 Pro Max Action Button

On older model iPhone there was always a button next to the volume button on the left side of the phone which allowed you to turn silent mode on and off. On the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max this button has been replaced with a brand new button called the action button.

While the action button can still be used to turn silent mode on and off it can also be customized from the settings to do many other different things.

Here are a few examples of what you can do with the action button

  • Turn silent mode on or off
  • Turn the flashlight on or off
  • Open the camera app
  • Start a voice memo
  • View your reminders
  • Run the magnifier app
  • Set a timer
  • Use voice control
  • Scan a document
  • Open any app you choose

There are many other things you set the action button to do but those are just a few examples. I think new action button is amazing don’t you? It’s a very cool, unique and interesting feature that I hope sticks around on future iPhone models.

It is quite fun to test out the action button and see all the cool things it can do and I highly recommend you try it out to if you decide to buy the iPhone 15 Pro Max.

iPhone 15 Models

iPhone 15 Models

There are four different models in the iPhone 15 range and they were all released at the same time. There are some key differences between them that you need to be aware to make sure you get the right model for yourself.

So far we have talked about the iPhone 15 Pro Max in this review but I’m going to go over the differences between the iPhone 15 models so you understand what you are getting.

iPhone 15

The iPhone 15 is the standard model in the iPhone 15 range and it mainly differs from the other models due to it’s smaller screen size and smaller battery. It also runs on a A16 Bionic chipset instead of the upgrade Apple A17 Pro. The other notable differences are that has Dual rear cameras instead of triple and has storage options of 128GB, 256GB and 512GB but no 1TB option.

iPhone 15 Plus

The iPhone 15 Plus is almost identical to the iPhone 15 but it has a larger screen and battery meaning it also has a better battery life. But other than that it is pretty much the same as the standard iPhone 15.

iPhone 15 Pro

iPhone 15 Pro has the smaller screen that the standard iPhone 15 has and 3x optical zoom on the camera. But everything else is upgraded and almost identical to the iPhone 15 Pro Max including the new Apple A17 Pro chipset and the availability of the 1TB storage option.

iPhone 15 Pro Max

The iPhone 15 Pro Max is almost identical to the iPhone 15 Pro with the only notable differences been the larger screen size like the iPhone 15 Plus and a bigger battery. There is also 5x optical zoom on the camera but other than that all other features are pretty much the same as the iPhone 15 Pro.

Due to the fact it has those couple of differences the iPhone 15 Pro Max is the best out of the iPhone 15 range. It is definitely an amazing smartphone and I truly believe it is worth the high price.

Which iPhone 15 Model Should I Choose?

Each of the four iPhone 15 models are great and powerful smartphones but you should choose the one that best suits what you’re looking for. If you don’t need the extra power or larger screen size then the iPhone 15 or iPhone 15 Plus is likely the best option for you.

But if you need or want the extra power and upgraded chipset with a larger screen size the iPhone 15 Pro or iPhone 15 Pro Max would be the best option for you. If you want the absolute best iPhone out of the iPhone 15 range then the iPhone 15 Pro Max is the one to go for.

No matter which iPhone 15 model you choose you will still be getting a great and powerful smartphone. But make sure you take the time consider your needs and choose carefully so you get the model that is right for you. Once you have gotten your new iPhone 15 you are bound to be satisfied and very impressed with it.
