I read many love letters on the 15PM: How awesome the display is, what an amazing battery life the phone has, that the 5x zoom changes the way we make photos a.s.o.
Almost no-one seems to talk about the 15 Pro. What's wrong with it? Is it the inferior device?
I really like my 15Pro: The size is perfect, I enjoy the native 3x zoom, battery life is good, I can handle it with one hand and it fits in any of my pockets.
Question is: Am I the only one, who really likes his 15Pro?

I just think there is a smaller concentration of Pro versus Pro Max users as of late, even when looking at sales charts, the Pro Max is in a lot more hands and I think that is further blown up on a tech forum where many want the “biggest and best”
That being said I see many who are happy with their 15 Pro.

I am enjoying my 15 Pro.

I think you'll hear a lot less noise about the 15 Pro though because it isn't as much of a change from the 14 Pro. So the media is focused on the camera improvements on the 15 Pro Max. iPhone 16 Pro will get the camera improvements.

There’s absolutely nothing wrong with my iPhone 15 PM, nor with my partner’s 15 P.

Nothing wrong with 15 Pro. Some individuals like myself prefer to have larger size, better camera feature (5x zoom compared to 3x in regular Pro), larger battery and/or other features that 15 pro does not have. It is just a matter of preference. Enjoy your iPhone 15 pro 😊

You're on Macrumors. The people on here the most will almost always buy the most expensive version. I wouldn't be surprised if the 15 Pro sold more than the 15 Pro Max overall.

Even when 14 Pro/Max had the same sensor, people prefer Pro Max. This year, the lean towards 15 Pro Max should be even more obvious.

It's less popular because if people go Pro, they go Pro Max. Bigger display and 25% more battery life. Everyone is used to two-handing it since iPhone 6 Plus. The difference is only $100.

I went Pro and will never go Pro Max, that things is far too big. I have big hands and it still feels like I'm holding a Scientific calculator. The extra battery is not a winning feature for me, we live in homes with power, doesn't matter what phone and what battery, when's its low you charge it.

It is a bit strange how YouTubers almost skipped the regular Pro this year. But the thing is - people like bigger phones and this year 5x was the major difference when it comes to camera.

With that said, a lot of people never go Max. I returned to the regular Pro this year (from a 12 Pro Max) and I love it.

Yup, and there are so many options to top up on the go, battery becomes an issue only if you insist on not wearing any additional pockets 🙂
