Apple’s new iPhone 15 Pro gets new chips, better cameras, and a titanium frame

Overall this event was pretty mid imo 🥱

Beginning to feel like this industry is stagnating. Just doing enough to appease the stockholders and pump the stock.

Colour: grey-variant

Wish this had the fun non-pro colours. Looks a like solid polish model year

The new A17 Pro 3nm chip comes with hardware Ray Tracing, so we will expect the next gen Apple M3 series GPU performance boost. Hopefully, the gap with discrete GPU get closer.

I did not plan to upgrade this year, but also didn’t expect Spatial Video capture until next year. I’d like to start capturing video for the Apple Vision Pro as soon as possible.

Pricing though… translating my local price back to US it will be $2245 for the Max with 1TB 🤢

According to my 3 year cycle I’d be due for this one. But I’m not really convinced tbh.

I can't believe I'm saying this but if I have to replace my 12 Mini right now, I'm not sure if I would go with a 13 Mini or that Samsung Flip.

Losing SMS on my iPad, personal MBA and work MBP would suck but I did get into Beeper so maybe I could get by until they offer something I'd actually want.

Interesting how negative the takes are here. USB-C, AOD, a better telephoto lens, action button and future proof SOC (which is fairly standard for iPhones) has convinced me to upgrade from my iPhone 12PM.

The trade in price offered for my old phone was a big part of the reason I’m sticking with Apple over my next option, Pixel Pro. Saves me from having to deal with marketplace. The Australian pricing seems (from memory) to be pretty comparable to what I paid for my 12PM, which considering inflation and the weak Australian dollar is pretty good.

Will we ever solve cameras? How much more can they really do for cameras? Will there ever be a new iPhone if the perfect camera is invented?

Why did they put the 5x only in the Max version... im on 13pro and can switch next year to 15pro. But im missing some new features or what "next gen" portraits do mean.

I will wait what Pixel 8 Pro will do, maybe this year they have more to offer.

Don’t really see a reason to upgrade from my 12 Pro Max

I hate that Apple never talk about RAM size... I mean, I know most Apple users don't even get to worry about this anymore due to how iOS works... but still, it is hardware after all...

Pro models actually got a price decrease in the UK, unless I’m missing something.

Now I just need to decide whether to match my phone to my watch and get the natural titanium, or whether to go for the blue.

Oh, and, Pro (like usual) or Pro Max (seems a bit big!).

Waiting for 16 or 17 with replaceable/swappable batteries.

I’m gonna upgrade from my 13 pro max and work is gonna pay for it. Yay.

I thought about ditching my 14 pro for a 15 pro just for the titanium.

Then I remembered that I put it in a case anyways.

What is bottom side button for?

I'm just waiting for the new iPhone LongBeachGriffy vid

It's not a titanium frame. It's still same old aluminium, just PVD, that is to say thin layer over same material as before. It's not going to make it any stronger.

But will it have 0 day 0 click vulns
