I’m a bit torn.
I currently have a Samsung S23 Ultra but since I tend to switch phones every year-ish (I get bored of them easily), I’ve been looking at getting an iPhone.
Ever since the announcement of the iPhone 15 Pro (Max) and them finally going USB-C, I’ve been wanting one. A few days ago, a friend of mine offered to buy my S23 Ultra which is great but I just don’t know whether to do it or not.
I see so many issues with the iPhone 15 Pro (Max) from screen burn-in to titanium having dents to software not working properly. I’d love to know from other iPhone 15 Pro (Max) users if any of you are experiencing issues with your brand new devices. My phone works great for now so if the issues really are a dealbreaker for most, I’ll just hold onto my Samsung until the S24 Ultra releases but I want to give iPhone a shot again after being on team Android for a few years now.
Do note that I’m not interested in getting a iPhone 14 Pro or lower, I didn’t wait all this time for iPhone to get USB-C (like all my other devices) to having to go back to Lightning which would be the only device that I’d have that wouldn’t have USB-C.
I’d love to hear all your experiences!

There are some things I prefer on Samsung than Apple and I still think all around the ultra is the best phone you can get in the u.s. Unfortunately I traded my ultra in for my z flip 5 so to offset my disappointment and desire for something new and all around better than my flip, I bought the 15 pro max. I like the phone and it is definitely better than using my flip. I enjoy customization and making the phone feel like mines so it was an adjustment for iOS but I’m still working on it. I had multitouch issues when I first got my 15 pro max but after an update, no issues whatsoever. If you weren’t doing anything crazy with your Samsung devices and using it as normal then the 15 pro max will be a nice change.
Switched from Android to the iPhone 14 PM. I mainly still use my android phone for everything except phone calls and text messages. The iPhone is super heavy for no reason and it doesn’t run as smooth as my 4 year old android phone.
S10e to 15 Pro
Only thing I feel iOS could’ve done better so far after a month of use is notifications (notifications type, I used to be able to choose not to receive ads from shopping apps) and keyboard. Miss being able to type numbers from the alphabet keyboard by holding instead of changing to number keyboard like on my iPhone.
You are really really sad if you actually think the 15 pro’s are truly “defective” every major issue has been caused by iOS 17 being shitty. But that is being patched. The “burn in” you mentioned was confirmed as screen image retention, which was 100% caused by iOS again. 99.9% of iPhone 15 pro’s and pro maxes are getting insane universal praise. Do not be so gullible to believe the very vocal .1% of users who got unlucky. No product will be 100% perfect for all users but for most of us it is. Just get the 15 pro or pro max and enjoy the heck out of it
