🐬 after using apple phones for about 14 years, last year I switched and got miself a Samsung galaxy s23 ultra, and I didn't had any problems with it. Really good phone.

My 15 pro max is perfectly fine and runs really well. Battery life has been perfectly fine. I end the day with anywhere between 50-55 percent. This is with mixed use (no gaming) maps, text, music, calling, social media. I only run games at night before bed.

One thing they drive me crazy about my iPhone 15 Pro Max is it indirect sunlight it’s basically unusable I just went to Cabo San Lucas with my family and I couldn’t even use my phone in direct sunlight. It’s terrible.

Unless Apple really brings it with iOS 18, I can’t stay on the ecosystem. It’s too limiting. @apple

Really curious what we'll get with iOS 18 at WWDC.

3:34 - My screen is in pristine condition
8:04 - This is my 3rd iPhone 15 Pro Max
That's why it's in pristine condition, right? 😃

am coming from a 13 pro max and had some difficulty in the size of the phone, I’ve got small hands, and am torn whether I should get the pro or the pro max.
Am really willing to get a more compact & comfortable size, but am scared that it won’t be an upgrade anymore. Which one do you guys suggest? Please I really need to know

I’m using the ultra bounce case and I love it. Expensive but nice.

I tried iphone and OMG, theyre so restrictive and awkward to use . Android is much more straightforward and intuitive to use . Obviously apple have a few things working in their favor, good build quality ( generally) and pretty good batteries, good ecosystem too - if you like their devices

I'm considering to sell my S23 Ultra to get the iPhone 15 Pro Max.

Had before the 14 Pro Max and had no issue, even the battery was amazing.

Now the S23 U is great but has many cons like battery life, it's very very poor. Have SoT of 5h and that's with Eco on 🥺. My 14PM had 10/11h doing the same. S Pen is great and maybe the only feature I would miss.

Camera wise, I can't say Samsung is better. Moving objects get blurry even with all the tweaks and shutter speed...

Watching this great video on my s24 ultra

[chrisanderson]

This is a solid iPhone, battery life is better than the 14 pro max, you will experience battery drain using navigation apps, other than that, it’s a solid iPhone

This video popped up on my feed and I clicked on it I considered getting the iPhone 15 pro max but didn't I don't have big hands at all I got the iPhone 15 it's my personal phone I have a s22 ultra I use for work due to the fact I'm from NYC and I work for the state of NY it's required to give a number android it is.
Also a few months ago my third son had bad infection tooth took him to NY Presbyterian hospital in flushing NY and everyone in that hospital uses a iPhone I asked why they said it's more secure I asked what about Android I was told no due to the fact it's easily compromised.

Aside from camera, I dont find any excemptional about the pro max. I just use it to flex and make people believe that I have a lot of money.

Still rocking an iPhone 13 mini. Apple needs to bring it back! 🐬

I hate rocking a case on the natural titanium because it looks so good. Only screen protectors I used and take off occasionally is the privacy one. Cameras are good, not like my 23u in which I more prefer. My iPhone gets slightly warm too. The battery sucks. I heard it from other people too. On some days nearly 8 hours until it hits 25% feels like I’m on a regular 15. Also seems to drain overnight. Looking forward to Mondays iOS 18 announcement and the 16 pro in September. May switch to the regular pro instead of the max. I really love the s23Ultra and don’t think it’s worth upgrading to the 24u. If it wasn’t for my Apple Watch, AirPods and the now me being a huge fan of MagSafe….. Damn Apple lol

been happy with mine, unless they do a major refresh I will stick with this phone for awhile..

[anuragraikwar]

Mine battery health is 99% in it’s 8 month is it normal?
