looks very good for an upgrader from a much earlier phone
Poll: *** The Official iPhone 15 thread (it has USB-C and everything!) ***
Yeah you can add it up to roughly two months after purchase IIRC.

Thinking natural is the one for me.
The price increase doesn’t exist so fair play.

yes, 12 pro max to 15 pro max for me! the new phone dimensions are a welcome addition as well as its easier to hold
Just ordered the Taupe light brown case for the 15 pro plus an Ultra 2 for good measure.
Roll on friday and I will get the 15 pro white 256 gb on order, nice to see that the 15 pro 256 version is cheaper than the 14 pro 256 I bought this time last year too.
Cheers all

Bit of a weird phone
In the spec sheet it says the 15 pro has 10x optical zoom but on the main page it says it only has 5x zoom
on the main page they have all this stuff saying it's their biggest upgrade ever for the GPU and then in the spec sheet they say it's only 20% faster than the 14 pro. Same with the CPU, they've moved down to 3nm which should offer massive improvements but then they say the CPU is only 10% faster
Overall it's not enough to make me switch from my 13 pro max. We'll see what the 16 brings next year, hopefully 10x zoom lens, better low light capture and bigger performance upgrades.

Does anyone know if you trade in with apple on a preorder do you have to send in straight away or do you have to send back when you get your new phone?

Might be doing an Intel tic tok cycle.
One year architecture improvements, next year die shrink and so on.

Never trust the marketing of any lens or camera when they use 10x or 100x zoom. It is pretty meaningless.
A 1x zoom can have more reach than a 10x zoom. How? You may ask.
The 1x zoom is a 600mm prime lens and 10x zoom is a 24-240mm zoom lens.
The 10x multiplier comes from the big number divide by the smaller number. So a 600mm lens is simply 600/600=1.
What apple has done is one page they used 120/24mm, 24mm is their main camera so that’s 5x. But they also have a 0.5x ultra wide which isn’t the main camera. So if you take that camera as the base, you get 10x zoom.
Either way, it doesn’t make the reach of the telephoto to be longer. 10x zoom marketing is meaningless in reference to how much reach it has.

One thing… I bet that official dock/stand that lets you charge in the horizontal position isn’t going to be cheap.

Natural titanium, pro for me. Will pre order and sell my 13 pro on eBay I think. They’re only offering £465 for it.
Similar.Shame they don't do the mini any more, I like my 13 mini and don't want a tab phone (and the price)
Anyone know what charge input the 15 pro can take? 20W or higher like other non Apple phones

Pretty sure this is the one they have been using in all of their images.
