Hoping the 15 Pro will be great for battery. Seems like 12 and 14 took steps back in battery, 13 was great and hopefully 15 will be as well.

    I see that the source is unproven but if true, I’m happy for these changes. That said, I really want this phone to be much lighter. It is noticeably heavy. Let’s get rid of the stainless steel on the Pro.

      I like the weight. I’m not a fan of the ultra lightweight design. It feels to fragile.

      I still have my 6s that I sometimes use to play music from (headphone jack; what a concept!), and it’s crazy to me how much lighter it is than my 12Pro. The 6s feels like it’s floating on air.

      I think that would be a regression. When I first held an iPhone 14 Pro, I was like “Wow, this is hefty, but I really like it!” and right now I daily drive a Galaxy S20FE, which is glass back and metal sides. My phone feels like cheap garbage compared to a 14 Pro.

      And the S20FE was basically a mid-cycle refresh of the S20 before the S21 came out.
