iPhone 15, iPhone 15 Plus. And then you have iPhone 15 Pro, Pro Max

The base variant & the upper variant We’re going to talk about all the other things. It’s going to be a very interesting & fun post.Friends, there’s a quiz. I’m going to tell you the total cost of all the things. I took out of the white bag. Go back & see what all I took out of the bag. And these are all the top variants. For non-Pro 512GB & for Pros, it’s 1TB

iPhone 15 Series Unboxing

Look at that colour this is the blue one. It doesn’t feel like an iPhone when you hold it. Because when you hold an iPhone, you expect it to be heavier. But this is light as a feather, especially iPhone 15. I don’t know we’re going to weigh it. Finally, USB Type-C to Type-C cable in an iPhone box.

Fantastic! Alright, and then you have a small documentation & sticker. That’s about it.In fact, you know the weight of the Pro Max Look at that colour.What a job!

What a job Apple has done. Because of the titanium frame, the weight has reduced a lot. Before waiting let me show you the iPhone 15 Plus. This is the pink colour. I don’t think we’ve opened it. Let’s open this too. I know you’ll comment that I’m overacting. But I’m not overreacting.Literally, go into an Apple shop & feel it. And this is natural titanium.

This is blue titanium. The most interesting thing is its weight. What’s going to be the weight of this? If you have an iPhone, you can’t say it’s less than 200g. But this must be about 185g. I can’t believe it Let’s see.

Mind blown. 170g Pure 170g Not more than 0.1g 170g for an iPhone. I can’t believe this Bigger battery. I was going to say it’s less than 200g. But I’ll say it’s about 185g. I don’t know, 190g. I’m going totally wrong. What’s this? 170g & this is 201g. What I was thinking earlier.

That’s right, this is 201g 201.7g. That’s the iPhone 15 Plus. We don’t have Pro, but we have Pro Max. Remember, the iPhone 14 Pro Max was about 235-239g. It was close to 240g. According to me, this is going to be about 215g. So around 20-25g less 221g. So it’s less than 239-240g. But I was thinking about the weight.

 IPhone 15 Series Design

Whenever I’m holding this iPhone. Those contoured edges. It makes you feel completely different. Until now, they were sharp edges. And it was obvious when you held the iPhone. But these are absolutely beautiful. I mean absolutely phenomenal work. On the exterior by Apple for sure.

Alright, let’s start with iPhone 15.First of all, these colors. This is a color infused back. Especially, we asked Apple executives. They said that they have partnered with Corning. To make this color infused glass. That’s why when light falls.

It looks completely different. It has a satin finish. But it looks very very different from anything else. And if I talk about the frame.

It has an aluminum build. And in Pro variants, you get a titanium finish. That is what you get. And remember, titanium is very light. And even more stronger than steel. Which was there in the previous 14 series. Another big change, Type C.

Now, there’s a Type C port. There’s a difference. All 4 have a Type C port. But this has a USB 3.0 port. And this has a USB 2.0 port. So you get a USB 2.0 cable.

Alright, let’s look at the exterior. iPhone 15 Series Ports & Buttons. If I talk about ports & buttons. There’s a USB Type C port, speaker grill, microphone. On the left side, there’s a volume rocker. And you have this slider. If I talk about the Pro variants. It has an action button. I’m going to show you how it works. And then you tell me. If you prefer this or the action button. On the right side, there’s a power on and off. So you can use 2 sims. And an e-sim. So it’s a dual sim, but 1 e-sim & 1 physical sim.

iPhone 15 Series Display

Let’s talk about the iPhone 15. There’s a dynamic island So from now on, you won’t know. If you’re using the iPhone 14 Pro or the iPhone 15 Pro or the iPhone 15. And if I talk about the display. Let me tell you about the sizes.

6.1” & 6.7” in Pro & Non-Pro models. But there’s a big difference. They come with 120Hz fast refresh rate. But these ones, Non-Pro are still 60Hz. That’s a mistake for sure. If there was 120Hz in Non-Pro. It would’ve been amazing. There are rumours of an iPhone 16. All the models will have 120Hz. In both the models, the peak brightness. Goes up to 2000 nits.

So that is there on all the models. Let’s do the drop test. There’s no tension at all. And now the iPhones have become lighter.This is the iPhone 15.Even if it breaks, there’s no tension. The cost has reduced by 1 fourth. For the back replacement. Let’s talk about the specs & chipset. This is on A16 Bionic. Which were the Pro models last time. But the big change in Pro models. This has got Bionic A17 Pro. For the first time in the Pro series. There’s a Pro chipset. 

iPhone 15 Series Performance

Is absolutely Pro Plus. It’s 3mm, so it’s very power efficient as well. And now for gaming. There are next level things. You can play Ray Tracing games on it. And we tested it out. I’ll tell you about gaming. But we did some benchmark tests. Which blew my mind. Especially about the A17 Pro. I don’t want to talk much about the A16 Bionic.

But the A17 Pro M1 & M2 MacBook Air And MacBook Pro laptops. We ran some benchmark tests. And it blew my mind. But the single core score. Of A17 Pro Bionic chip. And Bionic A17 Pro chip. That is over 2900. If I talk about the M2 chipset. Which was on the iPad Pro. It is closer to 2500. Lesser than 2500. So think about the single core score. But if I talk about the multi core. The iPad Pro on the M2 chipset. Is a little higher. This one is above 7300. And this one is above 9300.

So obviously. If you play heavy games like COD Mobile. You’ll be able to play at 120 FPS. And we ran Ray Tracing benchmarks on it. Obviously the upcoming games. Are going to support Ray Tracing. We got a frame rate of upto 30-31 FPS. That was crazy. We talked a lot about gaming in the keynote. There are a lot of console games coming on it. So you’ll be able to do PC level gaming. On the A17 Pro. That I haven’t tested it much. I said that there are incremental updates. There are incremental updates. But in the Pro Max. The incremental updates increase a lot. I want to ask you something. It has USB 3.0.

So you can connect to a big screen and play. But do you like to play console games? On this small screen? Do tell me, I really want to know that. If I talk about the RAM. 

iPhone 15 Series Specifications 

The non-Pro models have 6GB RAM. And the Pro models have 8GB RAM. If I talk about storage. The non-Pro models start at 128GB & the top models are 512GB. Whereas the Pro models start at 256GB & go all the way up to 1TB..The iPhone 15 Pro Max top variant costs you Rs 2 Lakh.

And the base variant of the iPhone 15 is around Rs 79,900-80,000.If I talk about the battery capacity, the base variant is 3349mAh in the iPhone 15 Plus. If I talk about the iPhone 15 Plus, it’s 4383mAh.

And if I talk about the Pro & Pro Max, the Pro has 3274mAh & the Pro Max has 4422mAh. These are weird numbers, but that’s what it is. Friends, can I tell you something? We’ve charged it with other cables & I’ll tell you what it charges. I mean, we took any other adapter, USB Type C cable & charged it. And it was charging! OMG! It felt so different. Another big increment! I won’t call it an increment. I’ll call it a big update. 

Camera

In the non-Pro models, you get a dual camera setup. iPhone 15 Series Camera. You get a 48MP plus 12MP selfie camera. But the big change. has come in the Pro models. Yes, it’s a 48MP plus 12MP plus 12MP telephoto camera on the Pro which gives you 3X telephoto zoom. This one gives you 5X lossless zoom. It’s a 48MP plus 12MP plus 12MP selfie camera. But keep the resolution aside. If you talk about the camera performance, 1 thing stood out. Obviously, we’re going to do a camera comparison, so wait for that. If you haven’t subscribed then do it. We do a lot of things.

for you at 11-12 PM. Coming on the camera, specifically on the iPhone. But 1 thing stood out, the HDR performance. We always complained about the HDR performance on iPhone photos. HDR performance has seriously improved quite a lot. We’ve taken a lot of photos in the original quality & in low light. Do check out the iPhone 15 series camera performance.

If I talk about the zoom, we’ve seen it on Android phones up to 100-120X. In this, it’s up to 25X. But remember, when Apple does something, it’s to the point. Even 25X will be usable. A lot of times, when you do 100X, you can’t see anything. It’s just for the name sake. Not with these ones. If I talk about the video graphics, it’s 4K 60FPS across the board. You can take ProRes videos. In fact, if you want to take ProRes videos & save them directly to the SSD, you can do that too. You can take RAW photos. And in photos, there’s a HEIF Max mode where you can take 24MP photos. 

We’re going to do a detailed camera comparison. Let’s talk about the new thing in the Pro models. The Action Button. I have mixed feelings about it. Because of this slider, you can clearly see the red. So even if you keep the phone in front, you’ll know it’s on silent mode. But now you can do a lot of things with the Action Button. But there’s a problem as well. You have to press & hold the Action Button for a long time. And then you see, it’s silent now. But if you hold the phone like this, you won’t know if it’s silent or not. But friends, this isn’t the only thing.

You can now call the Action Button as a camera opening button. And then you can use this as a shutter button as well. So if you want to take a photo immediately,

just long press for 3 seconds & the camera will open up. And use it as a shutter button & you can click the photo. You can also turn on the voice memo. If you go to a lot of meetings & you want to record.

connectivity

immediately. If you want to use a torch, you can do that. If you want to keep shortcuts, you can do that. There are a lot of features in the Action Button. But like I said, I have a mixed reaction. I still like that slider, really. Friends, if I talk about connectivity. you get WiFi 6 in non-Pro models. Whereas on Pro models, you get WiFi 6E. You get Bluetooth 5.3 across the board. And yes, there’s a 2nd generation Ultra Wideband chip as well. So if you want to find someone very accurately, you can do that.

iPhone 15 Series Multimedia

Let’s talk about multimedia. I forgot to tell you about the display. The bezels have already reduced. If you compare it with the iPhone 14 Pro Max. look at the bezels, they’re really thin. And there’s no issue with the chin. All the bezels are of the same size. Up, down, on the sides, everything. So it’s a very immersive display. Obviously, it’s an iPhone display.

And then you have Dolby Vision support, HDR 10+. And stereo speakers as well. Top notch. If you want to consume multimedia in the iPhone 15 Pro If I talk about the iPhone. I shouldn’t talk about the price. You know who all people take this.

If I talk about the value for money. Then you can probably go for iPhone 14 or iPhone 13 which are of the previous generation. But this one is cutting edge. Whatever you get in this, you’re not going to get it anywhere else. out of the top 10 highest selling phones globally 6-8 phones were only iPhones. And the iPhone 14 Pro Max was the highest selling.I attended the keynote. I thought there was an incremental update in everything. It’s slightly more than that. I also know that last time you used to get 128GB in the Pro Max. Now it’s 256GB. The price remained the same, but 128GB was less.

It was less than Rs 20-30K. It used to start at Rs 120-130K. Last time, the iPhone 14 Pro Max was a little cheaper because it was a 128GB variant. The pricing of the 256GB variant remains the same. Talking about this year’s AirPods Pro there’s a Type C, there’s not much of a difference.

There’s a Type C instead of a lightning port.There’s IP68 certification, there’s wireless charging, there’s reverse wired charging too. Yes friends, this is the iPhone 15 series, the big iPhones of 2023.
