iPhone 15 Pro vs. iPhone 15 Pro Max: what’s different?

Digital Trends The release of the iPhone 15 last year brought the usual flurry of interest on the new models, with people wondering whether the iPhone 15 Pro was worth the higher cost over the base iPhone 15. But if you decided that it was and you wanted a Pro, there’s another issue to consider — do you want an iPhone 15 Pro or an iPhone 15 Pro Max? Both models run the latest iOS 17.4 software, released in March 2024, but there are differences in the hardware between the two. And the Pro versus Pro Max issue is more…

Is the iPhone 15 waterproof? Read this before getting it wet

Apple The iPhone 15 is one of the top phones out right now, and it has pretty solid built quality and resistance to typical use. Like many modern phones, it’s designed with a water resistance rating — but that doesn’t mean it can survive being full submerged in your pool. An Ingress Protection (IP) code will tell you about a phone’s  water and particle resistance, making it easier to compare different models. So, what does this all mean for the iPhone 15 series? Are the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus waterproof? Apple…

This has led to a common question of whether the cases designed for iPhone 14 would fit the iPhone 15 models. While the answer probably won’t surprise you, it will likely disappoint you.

I used to hate screen protectors, but this one changed my mind

Bryan M. Wolfe / Digital Trends Like millions of others, I visit the Apple website every year and order a new iPhone. Once it arrives, I always have the same reaction when I see it for the first time: it’s a shame that I have to cover this beautiful device with a case. And yet, that’s the wise thing to do to protect my investment. Although I always recognized the need for an iPhone case, I have never been a fan of screen protectors. That changed recently when I was introduced to the Zagg Glass XTR3 Protector for my…

According to the Chinese zodiac, those born in the year of the dragon are charismatic, intelligent,…

Don’t buy a Galaxy S24 Ultra or iPhone 15 Pro Max. Do this instead

Tushar Mehta / Digital Trends “Do I need all that?” That’s the question on the mind of shoppers before they splurge a now-standard $1,000 asking price for a top-tier phone in 2024. Ideally, that dilemma should be there. The likes of Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra and Apple’s iPhone 15 Pro Max have won laurels for a handful of standout features they offer. But you might not need those standout features at all. I’ve been on that road, and more frequently than I have the temerity to admit. For some reason, regret comes as…

I finally found a reason to love USB-C on the iPhone 15

Andy Boxall / Digital Trends A series of events and a carefree financial decision have led me to fall in love with a gadget I haven’t used for several years — and it all started the day Apple decided to leave the old Lightning connection behind and use USB-C on the iPhone 15 series instead. But to tell the story, I will have to go back even further in time first. Let me explain. A gadget I loved but had forgotten about Andy Boxall / Digital Trends That story begins not with the iPhone but with a digital-to-analog…
