iPhone 15 Pro Max iPhone 15 Pro Max is very laggy

[LouisPiper]

do you use airpods whilst using the phone? noticed on my 15PM when using airpod pro 2nd gen USB C i see some bad lag.

Me too, especially when sending music/podcasts to the Dynamic Island or typing on the keyboard.

I've noticed that the iPhone 15 Pro Max is still very laggy.
I bought it on release day and had exchanged it.
The first one had quality control issues and I swapped it.
The second one seemed very good and was able to transfer all my stuff.

I've had the phone for a while now and it's still very laggy when typing and swiping menus.
I keep closing all the apps. Has anyone noticed the same thing?

I did not know lagginess until I read your post. Thank you for letting us know. 😊

Trying it to update it now, but work wifi blocks Apple's servers :O

I was surprised to find out that on my new iPhone 15 you can now download iOS updates over cellular. I could never do that before! Might want to give it a try if you have a good data plan.

Not experiencing lag on my 15 Pro Max.

iOS just clunky these days

Mine has animation lag badly. When the icons fly in they shudder. What is worse is when recording video and panning there are moments where the video freezes. I hate it. I don't know why it is doing this.

I think 17.1 helped and the problem was low power mode. :|

When I first got my 15PM I noticed a little bit of lag, but that’s normal while it indexes. Other than that, zero lag issues

I found it took a few days for my phone to get to maximum performance all around, including battery life.

First few days of usage I was worried about battery life because it seemed to drain about twice as fast as my 11 Pro Max did with similar usage! But then suddenly it started sipping energy and I'm back to the happy place of a day of regular usage taking me down to 40-50%.

Me too, especially when sending music/podcasts to the Dynamic Island or typing on the keyboard.

I have this issue as well. When sending music to Dynamic Island and going back to the Home Screen, and swiping, there is a little stutter. Hope 17.4 solves this.

I’ve had my 15 Pro for a week now and it’s blazing fast! iOS 17.4. Maybe only a split second faster than my 14 Pro was, but a welcome boost all the same and a joy to use 😁

Iphone 15 Pro Max has lagged for weeks. Now on iOS 17.3.1.

Mine improved greatly from previous lags after 17.4.1

My 15 PM is as snappy in operation as the day I bought it.

I have a 15 Pro and it’s never been laggy. On iOS 17.4.1 it’s slick & fast, as it should be.

As the posters above mentioned; slick and fast - as it should be.
