@BostonQuad he also said he didn't find the acton button easier to use as a shutter than the volume buttons, i guess you didn't read the whole paragraph

iPhone 15 Pro Reviews: Improvements Go Well Beyond USB-C

A "review" suggests a critical appraisal.
I'll wager there is absolutely nothing in these videos except pandering and praise. Can't get the clicks if you have nothing in your hands to create that all important thumbnail image of.

“go well beyond USB-C”. LOL journalists. USB-C is one among many minor updates. Most people care much more about design or the camera. I know basically no one who decides what to purchase based on the connector.
Whoever did MKB's makeup needs to be fired. Holy hell
Going full “Get off my lawn” here. I hardly recognize or know who the hell these YouTuber’s are and don’t understand the fascination with them. Some of these people have the personalities of unfed water buffaloes.
Now let’s see if any reviews compare camera results from iPhone 14 pro even if it’s the same sensor…
That's a neat photo (the MR post) – it makes the iPhone Pro look dinky, brings to mind iPhone mini.
I disagree, iphones are still the most premium looking phones on the market.. Most others sport that cheap hard plastic look... And its only lighter compared to the earlier iphone series which are very hefty phones. ~19 grams lighter hardly makes it feel light and cheap. its a miniscule difference for a phone that's already very heavy and premium feeling.
I hate to break it to you but the titanium is going to be just as much of a fingerprint magnet.
Sounds like this is the most pro iPhone they’ve made yet.
It's certainly the "best iphone ever made" with the magical port Apple invented that allows for USB-C cables. 😂🤣
I'm not crying after watching Matthew Panzarino's last iPhone review. YOU are. 😭
But seriously ... what a great, useful review. I've been on the fence about upgrading. But given my first ever trip to Disney World coming up at the end of the year, I now can't imagine having any phone but the 15 Pro Max with me to capture all of my family's joy.

USB-C, the new video recording protocols, the A17 Pro. The iPhone 15 Pro is the first iPhone Pro worthy of the pro name. It's beautiful.
Wish I could get one but I got a 13 Pro so it's not a high priority to swap it out for this one.

Sounds like Apple was being conservative with its battery estimates.
It's that time again, the usual YouTubers simping for Apple again.
I don’t want to sound rude and I appreciate every review but honestly sometimes it sounds as it was written by complete Apple fanboys and/or people who are similar to the dumbest user possible.
Honestly if you read these comments about USB-C or especially such simple things as the action button… oh my.

Doesnt really matter / not a deal breaker since I would use a case most of the time, but does anyone else actually think the 14 pro series actually looks more premium with glossy stainless steel vs. matte-ish titanium in the flesh? Fingerprint magnet aspect, aside
The titanium looks even nicer than I expected, too, not comparing against 14 pro but on its own

I'm more annoyed that Macrumours keeps posting them, I'll keep highlighting this until they stop.
I really want to be head over heels to get it, but this year I honestly can't force myself. I have had every iteration outside of the first iPhone and the 7, no feat to brag about just fanboyism at it's finest. This iPhone feels too incremental for me, even more so than the S upgrades of yesteryear. I am one of the few opposed to USB C in the short term but might feel otherwise after some time passes. I honestly hate how most "major" upgrades always seem to be camera-related. I get it this generation of consumers is pretty narcissistic and wants to share their life with the internet constantly, but man do I miss the days of new smartphones having upgraded DACs, tweaks or changes to their display panels, etc. I may purchase one before my carrier $1000 off offer expires but I don't feel as excited to upgrade. I now understand why some keep their devices 2-3 years, there really isn't too much necessary or even fun change coming year to year anymore.
