Quick & simple video to give you an idea of the camera differences between the Pro / Pro Max. Not totally worth it IMO. But also like...if you want Super Zoom just get an S23 Ultra lol 😅

I chose the iPhone 15 Pro (not the max), but I was sad that I couldn't take 5x portraits with that beautiful effect. But I went crazy when I was taking pictures and zoomed from 3x to 5x in portrait mode. And I was shocked because it was almost identical to the result of the 5x lens of the pro max. I had the 13 Pro and there was no possibility of zooming in portrait mode, at most it reached up to 3x. You who have the iPhone 15 Pro, open the camera in portrait mode, select the 3x lens and try to zoom. Go straight to 5x and the portrait effect is perfect. I don't know if more people know this, but I still haven't seen any YouTuber explaining about this possibility or testing it. I'm super excited 🤩

I disagree. Between 3x and 4.9x the regular Pro is significantly sharper and less noisy which might actually give it the edge in everyday use when you wanna take pictures of your family members etc., but what is also a very significant difference between the two phones is the battery. The Pro Max lasts multiple hours longer which makes sense with 35% increase to battery size. Considering that and the fact that you get 256 GB instead of 128 in the base model which will be just what many people want for everyday use I think the price difference is somewhat reasonable.

What many people don't mention is how at 3 or 4X and even up to 4.9X, the Pro max will use its main lens to crop in the image, as opposed to the Pro, which will use the telephoto.
Now you briefly mentioned it, but didn't show enough practical examples to showcase this, in my opinion. Maybe text-based images would have presented things more accurately.
GSMArena made a great comparison in this aspect and showcased that the difference in short zoom distances is much greater than those at let's say 5 or 6 times zoom.
Of course, the further you zoom, the more noticeable it starts to become, but it really bois down to what type of zoomed shots you're taking.
If you're taking more 3, 4 5X shots at most, then the Pro would still be the better choice, IMHO.
If you want to snipe at long distances, maybe Androids are the better bet, honestly... As you said it yourself.
Great video, nonetheless!

The pro max crops the main sensor between 2x to 4.9x — which means the 3x on the pro would be way sharper than the 3x on the pro max — and you can try this out.
So no, every image isn’t sharper on the pro max. It’s a choice — whether you want a shaper 3x or a sharper 5x on the telephoto.

[PhotoJohn]

you missed one feature. you also get double the hard drive space on the base pro max

[mattpacker]

It’s weird how the max hasn’t got a set 3x zoom

[Lou.]

There is a difference at 3x and everything up to 4.9x - the pro is better because it is using its 3x zoom lens and the pro max is using the main lens. The difference is quite obvious and is worse than the difference of the pro at 5x and above. Not an accurate review!

[DjangoGroen]

I got the 15 pro max because I like the size better. The extra zoom is a nice bonus. Just choose the size you like. It isn’t even about the money. But it’s a big phone. If you don’t like it you’re never going to enjoy it.

[Bluemanta]

You forgot to say that for many topics, a x3 zoom may be more convenient than a tight x5. Besides if you need to be on a 3x on an iPhone Prox Max, you'll be using digital zoom from the X1 lens so the quality at that focal length will be worst on the pro Max than on the standard Pro. It's a matter of choice because both have pros & cons based on your own needs.

You didn't mention the other big difference. 15 pro max has 256GB standard capacity, where 15 pro has 128GB. Getting a pro model allows you to take better quality pics (also with proraw) which are much more larger (up to 100MB per 1 photo! in my 15 pro max). So why would you buy the lowest storage option if you want to take many photos? 128GB is good for standard non-pro model. So maybe you want to buy 15 pro with bigger 256GB storage? So now you have to pay 1100$ so there is only 100$ gap between pro and pro max with the same storage. So now you think hmmm okay so only 100$ can make me have bigger screen, longer lasting battery and better zooming ability. Here is the point where it''s worth to buy the MAX version of Iphone 15 PRO. :)

I will preffer 3X Over 5X becuz 5x is like adding more artifacts as compared to 3x

[JoshConnectMedia]

One equally important thing you left out which is worth noting is, the Pro Res Log. Which of the 15s got that.. where you could shot in the native log format and then color grade? Is it iPhone 15 pro or the 15pro max?

[BenEncounters]

You forgot to review the cinematic mode, it's like no one does it. I need to know how the zoom compare in cinematic mode

[MikeShawTV]

iPhones are mostly great, but they could be greater. Apple slow walks improvements and over charges for what you get. I haven't heard a good explanation for why the regular pro doesn't have a 5x zoom except to get people to spend more for the Max. Apple cares more about their bottom line than their customers. Tedious.

[amardhaliwal]

Lot of dust on cases, you holding pro max in left side but comparing photos shows pro max on right side confusing, you need to work on that, else everything great

[irtezarahman]

Wrong info. 15 pro max optical zoom capability not up to 5x. Before 5x I mean to 4.9x it will be digital zoom which is actually cropping. When 5x if there is enough light then telephoto lens will kick in otherwise iphone use the main lens. Because telephoto lens does not work good in low light environment specially in phone. It can be improved but if they work on it will become much more costly life a camera.
