Other Almost everything about the iphone 15 pro was worse than rumoured!

At least the 13 series still had a physical SIM in the US market. A big reason I've not upgraded from my 12 Pro yet. Of course, other than battery my 12 Pro is still in good shape.

Why does that matter? Can't you just use an eSim from another carrier if you want to use more than 1 carrier?

Does anybody know if titanium case is more scratch resistant? Stainless steel on my iPhone's been always scratched very easily.

Thinking about upgrade as I watch a lot of movies and sometimes play games on my phone. Does HBO Max, Netflix, Prime Video, Disney+ and Apple TV support AV1?

256GB is base storage on the pro max which was correct

Technically yes, but they charge the "new" base storage the same price of the old 14 Pro 256GB option. So in short, they just remove an option to get the phone cheaper, forcing people to put more money on a pro model. So in fact it's a big price increase for many people.

It’s a decent upgrade, nothing more and nothing less, but it certainly didn’t live up to the hype that iPhone X brought. That was on another level.

The hype for the iPhone X was the last BIG iPhone launch in my opinion. It was also the last time I saw large amounts of people camping out overnight in the mall parking lot to get their hands on an iPhone.

November 2017 was a glorious time ha.

That's why they're called "rumours"....

Cheaper in Germany?

Favorable exchange rate made my ProMax more than €100 less expensive this year compared to PM14.
