Likes and Dislikes
Likes
- The revamped camera with a 48-megapixel setup and quad-pixel sensor offers increased clarity and better shots in dim lighting.
- The switch to USB-C provides a more universal connection consistent with iPad and Mac.
- The Super Retina XDR display offers rich colors and plenty of crisp detail.
Dislikes
- The color selection for the back of the phone is quite pastel and lacks the pop of previous iPhone generations.
- The 60Hz refresh rate on the iPhone 15s is disappointing as other companies have given their base model phones a higher rate.
- The USB-C data transfers are limited to USB 2.0 speeds of 480 Mbps, which can hamper things like transferring data to a new phone.
Comparison with Other Products
Compared to other products in its category, the iPhone 15 offers a higher quality camera and display. However, it falls short in terms of refresh rate as other companies such as Google and Samsung offer a 120Hz display on their base model phones. In terms of price, the iPhone 15 is on the higher end compared to its competitors.
Recommendation
The iPhone 15 is recommended for Apple users who are looking for a phone with a high-quality camera and display. It is also suitable for those who prefer a more universal connection with the switch to USB-C.
