It is a great phone! Currently using an iPhone 13 mini as I sold my 14 pro max ready for the 15 launch and it is very quick and a great size overall. Only problem I have hit is that I am a heavy user and I have to charge it during the day as my battery is usually in the red around 2pm
I think the 15 line up will be pretty good this year but I have no plans to buy one myself I just got the regular iPhone 14 last year and it does what I need it too but I’m excited to see what small things they have done with the 15’s and what will make it’s way down to the iPhone 16 line next year!
No. We will need to see of course, but almost assuredly no, the rest of the specs will not be the exact same.
Sorry but UTubers are the last source I want for tech info. Their goal is clicks, my goal is accurate info.
Personally I will buy a 15 Pro, 14 Pro going to a Max/Ultra because of vision deterioration in the last year. Color TBD, gray or blue.

Honestly I thought it would be the 15 Pro Max, because I’d really like the optical zoom, but now I’m more and more in doubt. I only had an X and an 11 Pro and I love the 1-hand usability. I think the Max is just too large and I don’t really need a large phone, I have an iPad and a variety of laptops and computers for other things. I might actually wait for the 16, perhaps they can put the periscope in the smaller phone?
I'm not all surprised to see that the 15 Plus has the fewest votes 
But that's still the one I want! I have the regular 13 right now and I'm looking forward to owning a larger phone again. And the Pros are too expensive and don't come with any extra features that I really care about.

Going from the 14+ to the 15 Pro. I remember last year I was going from the S21+ (Samsung) to an Iphone and the verizon people were asking why am I downgrading from a quality phone in the Samsung to a 14+. I've enjoyed the 14+ but I would like USB-C and Dynamic Island and this year hopefully they won't be out of the Pros. I also hope to keep it for 4 years at least.
I am going from a 14 Pro to a 15 Plus. I think I want to go Plus this year. My 14 Pro was great, but the battery... eh. I am sure the 15 models will have better battery life and not the extra upcharge. I can live with the slight upgrades coming to the 15 Plus.
Planning to get the 15 Pro. Currently have the 12 Mini (since launch in 2020), which I really like, but I have missed the screen size of my former phone (iPhone X). I thought the X was slightly too big when I had it, but then when I got the 12 Mini, I thought it was slightly too small. There is clearly no pleasing me 😂
The rumours about next years phones getting bigger are actually an incentive for me to get the 15 Pro (I would not really want to go any bigger)

As someone who can't put his phone(s) down because it's my hobby (more Android than iPhone), it's amazing how true this is.
I developed "De Quervain's tenosynovitis" after six years of non-stop phone use last winter. After I finally went to the doctor to figure out what exactly my wrist pain was, I am almost cured! It just took 5 months (so far) of wearing a thumb splint every single night + regular Aleve daily.
I have had big phones before but 2022 finally killed my hand! It sucks.
Plus I prefer to use my phone one handed, I type everything with Swipe\Flow\whatever keyboards call it - I can't stand using a phone without it!
The littlest weight and dimension width can wreck havoc on a phone enthusiast.
ultra would be next year i think. thats what apple rumours are speculating on. so for the 15 models its the standard, the 15 Plus, the 15 15 Pro, and the 15 Pro Max, imo phones should be released every two-three years whats the point of someone having a 13/14 models and is still doing fine without the upgrade but for some who have 11 pro pro max etc then they should be upgrading like myself.
