Score SummaryApex Premium Flagship ($850 and above)
Hardware Score:7.8 / 10

Titanium Precision, Action Button, and Desktop-Class A17 Pro Power

By shifting from dense stainless steel to Grade 5 titanium, Apple stripped 19 grams off the iPhone 15 Pro while narrowing the bezels around its brilliant 120Hz ProMotion Super Retina XDR OLED. Under the hood, the 3nm A17 Pro delivers blistering single-core throughput and console-quality gaming with hardware ray tracing. The move to a 10Gbps USB-C port satisfies creators needing direct-to-SSD ProRes Log recording, while the 48MP main shooter captures 24MP default snaps with astounding dynamic range.

Key Strengths

  • Noticeably lighter titanium chassis with soft contoured edges transforms hand feel
  • 3nm A17 Pro delivers extraordinary single-core speed and hardware ray tracing
  • Universal USB-C 3.2 port supports 10Gbps transfers and external SSD capture
  • Customisable Action button replaces the legacy mute toggle with custom shortcuts
  • ProRes 4K60 Log recording opens up professional colour-grading workflows

Points to Consider

  • Lacks the 5x tetraprism optical zoom found exclusively on the 15 Pro Max
  • 20W wired charging speed remains relatively conservative versus Android rivals
  • Base 128GB storage model is restrictive for high-bitrate 4K video capture
