Pros
- +Dynamic Island trickles down from the Pro models, New 48MP main camera with 24MP default resolution, USB-C replaces Lightning for the first time, Significantly brighter display than the iPhone 14, Ultra Wideband 2 chip for improved precision finding
Cons
- −Still capped at 60Hz refresh rate, unlike the Pro's ProMotion, Uses last year's Apple A16 Bionic rather than the newest chip, No telephoto zoom camera, Charging speed capped at USB-PD fast charging without a bundled adapter
Expert Review
GSMArena's review called the iPhone 15 an incremental but welcome refinement, bringing the Dynamic Island and a new 48MP camera to the standard model while noting it carries over last year's A16 Bionic chip rather than the newest silicon.
VERDICT
A solid step forward for the standard iPhone thanks to Dynamic Island and USB-C, though buyers wanting the newest chip or a 120Hz display will still need to look to the Pro models.
