Looking for gift ideas this festive season?

Apple iPhone 15 Plus, Super Retina XDR Display, A16 Bionic chip, and a similar charging speed. Most notably, there's a new main 48-megapixel camera that does a neat trick to provide a usable 2x telephoto zoom to cover all of the range that content creators look for.

00:00 Hey guys, it's Jon B. here with Tom's Guide.
00:07 I'm here at the Apple event for the iPhone 15.
00:09 I'm going to check out the iPhone 15 and 15 Plus, talk about what's new, what's different,
00:14 what's big about it, and of course, give you all my thoughts.
00:18 All right, so here we are.
00:22 The iPhone 15, 15 Plus, 6.1 inches versus 6.7 inches.
00:26 That's honestly the difference.
00:27 If you like a bigger phone, go with the 15 Plus here.
00:30 They have the aluminum frame, nice polish, feels good in hand.
00:34 Surprisingly, they're both lightweight.
00:36 I'm kind of jealous about the iPhone 15 versus the Pro because they have the better looking
00:40 colors, more colorful, unlike the other, you know, 15 Pro, you get black, metallic, gray,
00:46 whatever, but beautiful, gorgeous displays.
00:49 Like I said, 6.7 inches on the iPhone 15 Plus, really bright and vibrant.
00:55 Now what's new, the first thing here that you're going to see that's different is the
00:58 dynamic island.
00:59 Now this comes from the iPhone 14 Pro last year, so now you have detailed information,
01:03 quick glances, notifications, useful, handy.
01:06 So that's the first big difference here.
01:09 Second big difference here is the bottom.
01:10 You have the new USB-C port, gone is lightning.
01:13 Hey, more compatibility with different accessories.
01:16 10 gigabits per second transfer speeds from what they say here.
01:20 Third big thing I'm going to tell you here is the camera on the back.
01:24 iPhones have a new camera sensor, which is great.
01:27 Basically inherits the iPhone 14 Pro camera, so you have a 48 megapixel camera.
01:33 Now at first you'll see it's a dual camera setup here, so you have your main camera paired
01:38 with your ultra wide, but they do something really special and they kind of give you a
01:42 third camera, a two times zoom lens.
01:45 So technically telephoto covers the ranges, which is really nice.
01:49 Lots of versatility if you're a content creator.
01:51 You go really wide, very close, or very far away.
01:55 Checking out the new post focusing effect here on the iPhone 15 main camera.
02:00 So basically take a photo and then later in the app, you can choose of course the focus.
02:05 So of course changing the aperture right there at 1.4 really blow out the background.
02:09 But if I want the other person in the background in focus and the person in the foreground
02:14 out of focus, you could do that, which is what I like about this.
02:17 You can shoot now, worry later.
02:19 Now these phones are going to be available very shortly and the starting price is going
02:24 to be $799 for the iPhone 15 and of course $100 more, $900, $899 for the iPhone 15 Plus.
02:31 Three things that stand out to me, again with the iPhone 15, you have the dynamic island,
02:35 you have the A16 bionic chip, and also that 48 megapixel camera.
02:39 So essentially you're getting the iPhone 14 Pro, but at the cheaper iPhone 15 price.
