Everyone's Nikon Zoom is better, the problem is carrying the aforementoned Nikon kit on you at all times like you do with that phone camera
I am not planning to OPTICALLY zoom all the time. Digital zoom is sufficient for most zoom operations.
It might be possible considering iPhone 14 Pro Max supplies/shipments were (supposedly) heavily constrained during the first few months after release

so it might not be that hard to surpass those constrained iPhone 14 Pro Max shipment numbers
Plus, the iPhone 14 Pro Max has been the most-shipped smartphone in the first half of this year, so there is demand for the higher end models
iPhone 14 Pro Max tops global smartphone shipments as people shun budget phones for top-end devices
Last year, iPhone 13 was the bestselling smartphone, indicating a preference toward entry-level flagships. This year, it's Apple's most expensive phone that's taken the crown.
Apt analogy… if you're referring to a toy boat.
The rumored size of the 15 Pro Max is a bit smaller than an 8 Plus, and only 0.5 inches taller and 0.2 inches wider than a 12 Pro. And a report on Macworld says it may be lighter than the 11, 12, 13, and 14 Pro Max. For anyone concerned about the size, I suggest cutting a piece of cardboard to match the specs. I did that and was pleasantly surprised.
I get that it's not for everyone and that some people prefer a smaller iPhone. But it's hardly the massive device you're making it out to be.
I don't think there will be a price increase. The way apple has release of laptops, i.e., 15" air and then it goes on sale within a month or so is interesting. Increase could not be more than $100 worst case.
No, more like they want ONE device for LITERALLY EVERYTHING, no matter how impractical it actually is. (Can phone be used to do serious programming? Drawing? Remote to a server and you can see everything clearly?)
Then you certainly won’t understand why I prefer carrying an iPad Pro around instead of a phone nowadays. Yes I know I am the minority.
As if they ever will lower the prices…
Uh, if somehow in one year their sale drops by 98%, maybe?
So Apple is just going to eat the higher costs and take a hit to their margins?

as well as the periscope lens
will be more expensive than the parts on the iPhone 14 Pro Max.
Don't tell me you also think Apple will cut iPhone 15 prices 😂
I expect a price hike for all phones. They will have a braided cable now too. Does a type c port cost more than a lightning? Are they using thunderbolt on the pro's? Is titanium more costly than stainless steal?
I notice Levi's jeans have bigger pockets than they used to.
Guess that means I'm switching my allegiance from mini to PRO MAX ULTRA EDITION.

I think you underestimate how excited some of us are for USB-C. So tired of carrying around multiple cords or having the wrong one near me when wanting to charge. Now all my devices will use the same charging port:
- iPad Pro
- MacBook Pro
- Beats Fit Pro (Christ Apple loves the pro name)
- Apple TV Remote
- Work Laptop
- Finally adding my iPhone 15... Pro
There’s a rumor that the 16 Pro Max/Ultra will feature an upgraded periscope lens and the 16 Pro will get the 15 Pro Max’s periscope lens so no exact match with the cameras again.
Suffice to say, we fully disagree. Folks who do not like the latest tech should just stick with the older tech and not complain about the new.

I live in NYC and the amount of times I've used my S23U just to zoom in on far away signs or parking codes across city blocks is too numerous to quantify. The optical zoom is more than just for picture taking, I've used it as a pair of binoculars, it's a really nice feature to have a 10x optical zoom on you at all times.
I actually miss the round edges. The squared off design causes an iPhone like shape to wear into my jeans over time, seems to strip off the denim dye faster or something.
Granted this could also be solved by Apple making what has become a very thick and heavy phone, thinner.
With Pro Max getting periscope lens, it might be the preferred model
yeah agree, the whole thicker thing is just not a thing.. they need to be done with it IMO!
Wishful thinking. I think Apple feels this is the year to send the base Pro deep into 1K territory. Of course it’s possible Apple will only increase the Pro Max prices and keep the 256GB 15 Pro at $1,099 this year, raising the price to $1,199 with the release of next year’s 16 Pro. Then again, why stop with the Pro Max when you can also get more dough out of those who want a phone that fits in their pockets.
thank you. folks at like a Pro Max is akin to carrying a cement block in your pocket/hand. 😂
I mean maybe if you put a LifeProof or OtterBox case on it yeah, but no case or a thin/regular case and the phone is nottt huge whether you’re a a smaller person or not.
