impression : So , there we have it – another Apple Event in the story books and another round of iPhone updates to either entice people to raise or incense them on social media .
While I would often say technical school events , particularly those from Samsung and Google , drag and overstay their welcome , I think Apple speed through the departure of theiPhone 15 , iPhone 15 Pro and its new duo of watches . Almost to the point where I would have choose a minuscule more item in certain area .
I ’ve seen lot of on-line chatter about these being small updates , but I would dissent . The iPhone 15 looks to be a big rise over theiPhone 14 , with a fresh camera , Dynamic Island , USB - Cand far nicer colour . The Watch 9 and Ultra 2 picked up a new splintering which is finally more capable and should unlock some canny lineament down the line . And then there ’s the iPhone 15 Pro .
Reading back through my critical review of theiPhone 14 ProandPro Max , it seem like Apple has specify the absolute majority of the biggest issues I had . USB - hundred substitute Lightning to allow us to finally charge an iPad , iPhone and MacBook with a exclusive cable . The fingerprint - have it away lustrous aluminium side have been ditched , as has the gaudy gold colour . Even the sides have been contour slightly to make it more comfortable to hold .
My scruple about the hapless soar execution in the camera smell to have been fixed too , at least on the iPhone 15 Pro Max which gets a new5x telephoto camera I ca n’t wait to use .
Where are the battery enhancements?
One area where Apple looks to have stood still is with the battery life history . Endurance was barely mentioned during the event and all signs repoint to the newfangled phones having the same battery life as the older models .
Apple might say this is great ; you get the same battery life but thanks to the switch to a Ti organic structure , the phones are both lighter and slightly smaller than before . My response to that would be that instead of making them lighter , use the salvage weight to offset the cellular inclusion of a bigger assault and battery .
Having a swooning phone is great when you first pick it up , but I do n’t think it ’s something that makes a dispute when you ’re used to it . It just becomes natural . Whereas throw a longer - live on battery is far more good , at least for me .
The accession of dissipated charging could have offset limited battery ascent , but even though Apple switched to USB - C it look like flush time and speed will be the same as before . It ’ll still max out around 20w and take around 90 minutes for a full commission – that ’s a scrap of a shame , specially when many rumours ahead of the launching had evoke much faster charging was a contribute .
I appreciate have a lighter phone is great for marketing – but maybe next time let ’s focus on the battery life .
