      Here in Brazil It costs 1390 us dollars. 1390 usd for a 60hz screen phone. Believe It or not, lots of "smart" people still buy It.

              Gsmarena used to test at 60 and 120.
              Now they do not.

              Difference was easily more than 4h.

                      Extra power used is nothing worth.

                      Dont understand why ppl sacrifice 2-3h SoT to scroll faster.

                        Anonymous, 30 Sep 2023Same happened to xperia 1 mark 1. Original score was 0.... moreI dont know about the xperis stuff but the reduction in the iPhones score is definitely deserved . The specs of this phone are mediocre at best . We've seen better phones than this score less . The only reason why this phone would be given a 4.5 is because of it's brand name .

                          "The vanilla iPhone finally gets the Dynamic Island from its Pro siblings. In fact, the display is all new this year with significantly improved max brightness."

                          Yeah..."magical" that they improve the screen in every way except that thing most users would like to see: refresh rate

                          "In fact, looking at some historical pricing, in the UK and Germany, the base iPhone 15 and 15 Plus are now £50/€50 cheaper than the 14 and 14 Plus."

                          Yeah...because they upped the price €200 from 13 to 14 in Europe lmao

                            LoneOwl, 30 Sep 2023I dont think its because of that. I mean if we ignore al... moreSame happened to xperia 1 mark 1.

                            Original score was 0.1 above s10+ .
                            Samsung fanboys said it was wrong.
                            Score was reduced, they claimed a " reader" saw an "error" with their score system. The score system that no reader has access to. So, impossible to see.



                              " While on the subject of Samsung flagships, it is worth noting that the Galaxy S23 Ultra can be had for about as much as a vanilla iPhone 15. "

                                4.1?? Can't say I'm surprised . Compared to other phones this phone isn't worth it's price

                                  I usually accept that Apple charge more than rivals using similar technology because Apple includes it's own in-house operating system, but Google does the same, and the Pixel range is offering a nice alternative at a cheaper price and will only get better. I'd accept $700 for the 15, but $800 is a too much imo.

                                    I mean if we ignore all these, just take a look at the performance.

                                    Its last years A16 which is still good, but it throttles worse than base S23 to just 50%.

                                    The only thing that Apple really deserves praise is the max brightness, which is mighty impressive, even on base Iphone 15.

                                      The iphine 15 and iphone pro 14 has the same SoC and ram
                                      So they will have the same ios support
