Just upgraded from the iPhone 11 to the 15 base model. I’m just an ordinary casual telephone user (phone calls, texts, YouTube, email) and feel that the basic iPhone 15 is more than enough for 99% of users like myself. Great phone, absolutely love it

POV: Website is not letting you preorder so you're mindlessly watching apple related videos lmfao

The 15 is close to perfect for me because I don’t care about the camera too much but man the 120Hz refresh rate might just force me to splash out the extra cash for the pro…

just bought a pink 15 plus with 128GB! I love larger phone screens because it’s easier to see and write on for me, and I don’t use that much storage so I’m happy with it! Everyone is different though!

A lot of people are asking here which one to get the 14 pro or standard 15.
The answer to that is it depends on your preference.
I am someone who prefers and prioritise a LIGHT WEIGHT phone (iphone 15 only weighs 171 grams) as they are more portable for my small hands and it must have good battery life. That is why I will be most probably buying the Iphone 15 256 GB in blue (as I like light pastel colours). I personally really don't care about the 120 hertz display and would find AOD distracting. But, if you WANT that 120 hertz and stainless steel build go for the 14 pro but know that it is heavy (206 grams) and has bad battery life for a pro according to reviews. Cameras will be more or less same on both the models now. So at the end it depends on your preference. Hope this helps !

I don’t think most people need the Pro. I have 14 Plus and love it. 15 Plus is great

Got all five family member's basic 15's. Upgrading from 11's. Free with trade, so it was a no brainer. 11 was the oldest model they'd take, so waiting another year wasn;t an option.

I went with the blue titanium 15 pro max. I’ve had the black/space gray iPhones for the past few years and I wanted something a little different

[ortizm]

I went with the 15 pro 256. The size is a killer for me. Had 3 different larger size iPhones in the past and regretted it

[sherwinclarencego]

The basic iPhone 15 seems to be the best deal of all here. The Pro Max is too expensive for most. The regular Pro just does not have the ommphh improvement over the 14 Pro.

Went with the blue titanium iPhone 15 Pro Max with 256GB of storage this year. First time with a Pro Max model since the 11 Pro Max. I’ve loved the size of the regular Pro models from the 12-14 but battery life has been getting so much worse so I finally moved back to the Max, can’t wait for it to arrive next week.

Just replaced our iPhone 11's with two iPhone 15's - one blue and one pink. Standard storage. Basically free with new Verizon plus plan. For what we do with our phones, this was a great deal.

Slid in and got the iPhone 15 in pink in 128 GB! I'm coming from an iPhone XR that is not doing so well these days. I only need 128GB for me personally 😁

[Lukeorice]

Don’t forget about the 120hz display, that was a deciding factor for me. It’s a much smoother experience

[michaelwoolford]

Going from an iPhone 8 Plus to base iPhone 15 = don’t think I need to even consider pro as the upgrade will be massive.

I'm upgrading to the iPhone 15 from a iPhone 12. Have the 12 in green and saw they made a green 15 so I went with that color. I have been waiting for USB-C to upgrade

[tomlineberger]

Thanks for the review!! I currently have and iPhone SE 2020. So, I'll be upgrading soon. I like the features of the new iPhone Pro Max, but I believe I will get an iPhone 15 with 256GB of memory. As a retired IT person, it's better to have more memory than not enough. I would probably get the black color.

[feversol]

We are in the annual Upgrade program and have been getting the Pro Max for the past few years. And, for the past several years, the 256Gb Pro Max has remained the same price so our monthly cost has remained steady. Of course, we keep paying monthly and never actually own the iPhone, but we find the monthly payment easier than $2, 400 out of pocket at once. We also get Apple Care + so any repairs are quick and at no charge. We are not power users (both in mid-70’s) but just like the annual change. If we paid for the iPhones, we would have kept our 11 Pro Max which was more than enough camera for us.

I chose the basic model 15 with 256k. No need for the extra bells and whistles the pro phones offer. Went from a 13 to 15.

Ordered mine! I got the 15 plus in pink. I couldn’t order online so I went to my local carrier store and ordered it there! So excited!
