I did the same, but due to the phone giving me a headache I returned and got a full refund from Box.co.uk. Only difference from new is the seals were broken, I made sure everything else was spotless.

I've said this to them, it is essentially brand new but they won't accept it sadly. I'm hoping someone will buy it as the stock levels are still hit and miss - the NT is still saying November.
 
Ordered a Natural Ti 512GB 15 Pro this weekend, 2 weeks delivery time. Should be a nice upgrade from my venerable XS.

I'm sure you'll have no issues selling it.

Tell them you’re returning due to overheating issues and you’re not happy with it.

Looking between getting the 15 pro and the pixel 8 pro.

My other half believes social media posts are better on iOS than on Android. Has anyone else experienced this? She believes it's why influencers all have iPhones.

I'll be using Instagram and TikTok for my business page so if there is a difference I'd like to know when spending 1k+ on a mobile.

In my experience, Instagram posts do look better when I post from my iPhone. Apps that take photos use the built image processing from Apple, not sure on Android, for a long time it used to use some janky capture method that looked bad.

Video on iPhones look really good and are hard to beat.

How’s your regular 15 treating you so far?

Excellent stuff. Glad you've found a decent compromise this time round.

Yea the regular 14 just wasn’t appealing last year as an option. 15 this year doesn’t feel like I’m missing much compared to the Pro. The main camera is really good.
 
Is anybody else underwhelmed with the move to iPhone 15?

I went from a 12 none pro to 15 pro and if anything Safari/browsing performance seems worse, pages slow to load and randomly refreshing, seems a bit buggy in general

Admittedly I don’t use the phone anywhere near to its full potential and was on the fence about whether to upgrade or not so I guess I know why now

Yes, although it seems the current iteration only obscures a tiny amount of screen from reading reviews. Other brands that have been talked about like Flolab are also saying they have a more ‘3D‘ version on the way as well, so I suppose I may as well wait and see and keep the phone in a sleeve for the time being rather than buying something that will just end up binned. Wasteful.

Also the ESR Halodock wallet I got is pretty neat! I didn’t get the Geo version with Find My and a stand as it’s fatter but the regular version, whilst fake rubbish leather has a great magnet, the finger loop is usable, disappears when not i use in terms of added thickness (sorry Popsocket) and it only fitting 2 cards is fine since I have all my credit/debit ones on Apple Pay anyway so just need something for my licence.

I ended up biting the bullet and getting the Torras, I can't say I personally notice it obscuring the screen at all.
Install was a breeze and you can't even tell it's on.

I use my phone as a phone and a camera, which is why i was looking at the pro, but, given the stories we've heard about the 15's in general, which I've not seen anything like this for as long as I can remember, its kinda put me off tbh
 
Liking the build of this phone.
Without sounding clichè does feel premium in hand.

And more comfortable to hold compared to the iPhone 13, without a case.

Dynamic island coming from the notch, I like/don’t mind it? Maybe a gimmick and will probably wear off but I like seeing the album art from Spotify in it.
Unsure what other apps use it and if it has any proper functionality use cases, outside of housing the camera and sensors…Until Apple figure out a better solution

Jury’s still out on battery and heat.

Was getting hot yesterday but put that down simply to because it was downloading all my apps etc, so expected.

Not had opportunity to test camera either.

I don't buy that tbh. If I set up my iPhone 11 from scratch it doesn't get hot, neither did my wife iPhone 14. My M1 iPad did though and it ate battery. The only time I would accept it getting hot it playing intensive games, or it's poorly designed.
