At the launch of the new iPhone, I upgraded my phone (iPhone xs max) to the iPhone 15 pro.

I assumed that it would be a bigger upgrade for me, since a few years has passed, but oh man this is a huge let down. Sadly don’t have a return policy where I live in Europe.

The camera somehow seems worse. I’m not saying the camera is bad, but it does not seem better photos than my previous phone. I don’t feel like I can just take out my phone and take a picture of something quickly anymore. Now I gotta focus and take more time with it.

The battery is not good. I’m a very light user, yet the battery drains just as fast as my xs max and that phone has 85% battery health.

The only real upgrade for is the 120hz screen. Charing with a usb-c cable or lightning really does not effect me at all.

​

Anyone else experiencing the same?

    Battery life being worse on the smaller phone is no surprise, at all.

    If the camera is also bad, then maybe yours is defective. I’ve got an X that I was playing around this morning because I’m about to sell it, and the camera is worse on the X, and I’d assume it’s the same on the Xs lineups.
