Son, I am disappoint. - iPhone 15 Pro

This new iPhone has Linus' attention... with USB-C, a refined design, and "console-like" gaming, will he be impressed, or does LABS' reporting show that this is just another iPhone?

“I am disappoint” goes on to praise nearly every aspect of the phone and giggle like a giddy child.

Title: "Son, I am disappoint"
Linus: "This thing is awesome I love it"

Just a little correction.
"Apple is only assembling the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus in India. Not the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max. Both the iPhone 15 Pro models are still assembled in China."

The reason they dropped the Bionic naming was because originally it was created to distinguish a chip with Neural Engine, right now, after dropping the A11, every single chip in a phone sold/supported now has A12 and up and all of them have a Neural Engine.

6:50 In India all the models below pro and pro max are the only one being assembled (thus reducing price of import duty for those models in India) and pro and pro max are china exclusive only (which has a higher price due to import)

phone repair guru actually looked into it, the weak point on the back glass is due to the metal plate that all other parts are anchored to isnt directly attached to the glass this year. even on the 14 and 15 where they open from the back the metal backplate is attached to the glass and for those they have another backplate just behind the display for all the components to attach to

[aaronrdaniels]

I hope DJI makes something that utilizes the USB-C port to have external storage and a microphone all in some sort of a camera handle on the side of the phone.

[DynamicRockers]

An iPhone 15 mini would have been so nice! The new 15s are awesome but I'm disapointed they removed the mini size of the line.

When dbrand just lets you do a product shoutout it jut feels so much better than an ad read or break I actually watch or listen to the whole thing.

[OfficialDeathScythe]

Different actions for the action button in different focus modes is my suggestion for features. I mean, if you go to the movies all the time, set a geolocation focus for movies and set it to ring/silent, during work you can have it set to open a specific app or maybe flashlight depending on what you do for work, then have a vacation focus that makes the action button a camera quickdraw. That would just make it perfect along with Linus's idea for the double press or hold. Certainly miles better than the backtap feature

[NovaU]

Actually, it seems the reason for the immediate glass break in Zack's (JerryRigEverything) test was due to the fact that Apple moved a support metal bracket from the back glass to the actual frame of the phone itself, which severely weakens that glass's rigidity.

I really want to see more USB-C testing, loving the flexibility of the port compared to lightning. Also backed up my phone to my PC and it was so much quicker thanks to USB 3 speeds. Finally out of 2010 with USB 2.

[Lord-Of-Light]

4:25 they actually have a refresh rate between 1 and 120 Hz, not 10 and 120. That’s why the always on display doesn’t show second.

[CrizzyCrazy]

I think when testing any phone, iPhone, Samsung, Pixel, etc. maybe having the Software version listed as well could also be helpful. I know when new phones rollout there are always hot fixes in terms of updates so testing on an older version versus a new version could lead to slight discrepancies. It could also be negligible but I do feel like it could help those who look at the charts have a better overall understanding.

Goes on to read apple's marketing material

I think you should do a deep dive into shortcuts. They're incredibly powerful. You can even use them to change how apps look on the home screen, or to make siri do x thing when you say x phrase.

[iguigy]

4:26 iPhone 14 Pro and 15 Pro are 1hz to 120hz. 13 Pro was 10hz to 120hz

[tutacat]

You can use the action button as an extra shutter button in the camera,
so you could use the volume buttons to zoom or focus separately

[TheOystei]

the action button is nice, but i'm conflicted as i really like the physical toggle switch. being able to set (or check that it is in) to silent mode with the phone still in the pocket is so nice.

i like how LTT reapplied the out of the box screen stickers for authenticity 😂
