I was gifted an iPhone 15 Pro, delivered yesterday morning, by yesterday evening it was being sent back (Network couldn’t sort out my contract).

But during this time I got to play with it, I was upgrading for an iPhone 11 (normal, not pro) and was so excited for the huge difference, but I just didn’t feel it?!

Do you feel you’ve had a big difference from your previous upgrade? I took the same photo on my 11 and 15th and unless you zoomed in, you couldn’t really see the difference. The sound quality on the 15pro I could hear every breath when recording and I also felt like white colours were ‘too strong’ on the screen making videos/photos feel fake on the 15 pro compared to read on the 11. Are you noticing any of these? Did I just not get to play long enough?

Upgrading from 7 to 11 felt HUGE and I was expecting that again, especially with this being a Pro model.

    I mean there is a reason why it’s called Pro. Part of it is that the specs are beefed up, and part of it is that the features are more relevant to specific professional workflows.

    Camera captures wider dynamic range. Irrelevant to 8 bit JPG, relevant to 12 bit RAW. irrelevant to h265 long GOP, relevant to ProRes.

    I think normal users are getting an excellent deal from regular iPhone. I would only consider Pro if I wanted to take advantage of Pro workflow.
