I hate my iphone 15 pro and I miss my iphone 13 pro. Am I the only one? - eviltoast

I had my iPhone 13 pro since the launch and had its battery replaced once under apple care+ not because the battery was failing but because I smashed the phone completely and had to have the rear side replaced entirely.

So luckily when I switched to iPhone 15 pro from iPhone 13 pro, I still had a 100% battery health on my 13 pro.

I had big expectations when I upgraded… but I am noticing so much overheating and battery drainage on my new iPhone 15 pro. I can confirm that iPhone 15 pro battery goes down faster than my iPhone 13 pro given that both have 100% battery health!! I am doing the exact same things and I don’t know why this newest phone is being so problematic. It burns like crazy randomly, too. I haven’t found out a trigger, but this phone randomly decides to become a hand warmer and it just makes me get worried about the further battery health decline.

Another minor annoying thing is, and I am actually unsure if this only applies to me, but the rounded edges are very uneven on my iPhone 15 pro. The small gap between the side panel and the rear panel don’t flush completely and this part keeps on getting caught in my hand / scratching my palm and it’s driving me crazy. Maybe this is because I’m too used to the edged sides of my old phone??

What are your experiences? For those who jumped from 13 pro to 15 pro, I want to hear your thoughts.

    I miss my old iPhone too. I mean, I still have it and use it, but apple took it away.

    My “new” iPhone still has good battery life, but just turning the screen off and back on will force an app reset. The keyboard is janky and borderline useless. The camera app occasionally crashes. Safari doesn’t render all pages correctly or gets hung in a refresh loop. Every app takes up over 400mb now. I get the SOS cell bug. FaceID forces using a pin at least once a day. Weather app is bugged. Volume bugs out sometimes. My AirPod pros hiss like mad (store declined warranty repair). Apps restart multiple times a day.

    Yeah, I miss my old iPhone. The new one (my old one with new iOS) is a dumpster fire. I’m not willing to risk $1200 to find out how much is software sabotage and how much is hardware. My samsung backup phones just get better and better with every release. Thanks for listening.
