Perhaps I am just very lucky but I got my 15 Pro Max on Wednesday just gone and it's been nothing short of fantastic. I upgraded from a Xs Max which was 5 years old and it is a superb upgrade imho. Battery life has been excellent getting me a near two full days use even with me setting the charge limit to 80% with the new option in settings. And I've not had the hot device issues I've seen a few reports of. Going for a run on Saturday the device stayed cool while tracking my run. Taking a bunch of pictures, etc. All has been just fine as expected. So far I am very happy with it.

I find it hard to believe anyone is getting burn in on a device that hasn't even been in consumers hands for a month yet. I'm sure it is possible but even the cheapest OLED panels take time to get burn in.

You upgraded over 6 generations, any brand new phone you get would feel fantastic in my opinion. If I upgrade from 14 to 15, I wouldn't be amazed at all with the new one, and I believe most of the people feel the same way.

Exactly. How could people be so naive? A friend of mine bougth the cheapest Android smartphone for less than 50 bucks on Amazon and then after buying iPhone Pro for ~ 1500 he annoyed anyone saying how much better iPhone is than Android. However, he never ever used a proper flagship Android, only the cheapest of the cheapest models and then compares them to iPhone... Genius

Well yes of course. Upgrading year over year you're not going to really see any major changes. Going from a 14 Pro Max to a 15 Pro Max is pretty minor.

My comment was more that I've not had any of the issues I've seen reported over the past few days. No overheating. No screen issues. No battery life issues.

I'm not saying they don't exist of course. I was just adding my personal experience to add balance.

I will add that while the upgrade from my Xs Max is obviously pretty big it is still iOS at the end of the day and it isn't actually any different in general. It does a few new things like the Always On Display but overall it is the same as my Xs Max just faster/smoother. Naturally the camera upgrades are very impressive as is the Pro Motion screen. My Xs Max had a battery replacement 9 months ago so it still had good battery life but the 15 is clearly much better. Even with the always on display it loses around 1% battery every 4-5 hours which is what I would expect. My Xs Max would also lose around 1% every 4-5 hours even without that feature.

Naturally I am interested in hearing about these issue as it alerts me to keep an eye out for such issues developing for myself, but as with anything reported on places like Twitter I take it with a grain of salt as it could just be someone deliberately damaging their device to drive engagement and grow their presence sadly.
