Like the iPhone 14 Pro series, the 15 Pro also supports always-on display.
Those are Apple’s numbers, but they’re also fairly typical of real-world usage.
Another thing worth noting is that the $999 iPhone 15 Pro ships with 128GB of storage.

Here Are Your Choices
Apple’s iPhones didn’t always offer the long-lasting battery life they offer today.
This is why iPhones can compete with Android phones with physically larger batteries and still come out on top.
For the last two years, the Plus and the Pro Max variants have providedthe best battery life.

Simply put, a larger iPhone means more space for a bigger battery.
Obviously, the options belong to two different categories of iPhones.
In such a scenario, go with the phone that fits your budget.

Either way, you could’t go wrong with either of the models when it comes to battery life.
Currently, only one model does that:the vanilla iPhone 15.
Released in September 2023, the iPhone 15 offers many features previously available on the Pro variants.

For instance, you get the Dynamic Island.
Firstintroduced with the iPhone 14 Pro series, the Dynamic Island lets you interact with notifications intuitively.
The 12MP (f/2.4) ultrawide also does a decent job of capturing landscapes.

Another major improvement on the smartphone is the inclusion of the USB-C port.
It is the same processor that powers the iPhone 14 Pro series.
Besides, the iPhone 13 also carries a modern aesthetic.
It has the same notch asthe newer iPhone 14and the diagonal rear camera alignment as the iPhone 15.
For now, Apple retails the iPhone 13 (128GB) variant for $599.
For those who really like their iPhone 8, theiPhone SE (2022) is an even cheaper option.
It is a simple, no-fancy-features-included smartphone that gets the job done.
