When I first got this from Apple, Apple delivered me a broken iPhone 15 Pro Max and when I asked for a refund they said womp womp so please don't waste your money on this, the apps worked bad, they gave me a fake one so please do not buy this Show details
Great – Easy to use. Alot of memory great camera and the photo quality is really good. Light in weight.
I phone 15 pro max 256gb review – So happy with my purchase,fantastic value for money and though buying the 256gb would have me regretting not spending more money but in fact has enough space for the everyday user and would recommend getting on without any hesitation if your in the market for a new phone.

Ali baba has dropped the ball in a big way – Ali Baba. You are being called out as being not legitimate! I purchased two iPhones from a manufacturer, not only did I not receive the goods, so far I haven’t received a refund from you! I have asked on several occasions if the manufacturer - who, by the way NEVER responded to any questions after paying the invoice!! I DID ask several previous… Read more
to the payment! I needed the phones by a certain time so paid over $120 US dollars for the privilege and then ages after I didn’t receive the phones I was looking through the webpage of the manufacturer again and discovered that expedited shipping was maximum $70 US dollars- so I’m not sure what happened with my particular order - a rogue employee perhaps!? But no matter what ALI BABA you are ultimately responsible for your site and you have failed on a grand scale in this case - I can only hope that this review really digs into your business and gives you everything you deserve in the way of no sales - you just aren’t trustworthy
In line with expectations – As someone who's been using the iPhone 15 since its release in September 2023, I've had ample time to form a solid opinion about it. Here's my take: Price Point: First off, the pricing is surprisingly reasonable. I got the 128GB model for $799, which felt like a good deal considering the tech packed inside. The options for 256GB and 512GB at $899… Read more
and $1099 respectively also seem fair.
Performance: In terms of performance, this phone doesn't disappoint. Whether I'm gaming, scrolling through social media, or taking photos, everything runs smoothly. It's speedy and efficient, making it a great choice for everyday us.
Camera Quality: While I'm no professional photographer, the camera capabilities are impressive. I've taken some stunning shots that look great on social media. It's definitely a step up from previous models.
Overall Experience: My overall experience with the iPhone 15 has been overwhelmingly positive. It balances affordability with performance in a way that makes it a suitable choice for most users. It's not just another iPhone; it feels like a genuinely thoughtful upgrade.
To sum it up, the iPhone 15 is a robust and user-friendly device that offers great value for its price. It's definitely a mainstream iPhone worth buying.
A worthy upgrade for those of you on iPhone 11 or below – The latest iteration of the iPhone is an evolutionary step forward as opposed to a revolutionary one. This years model consists of a titanium outer body which definitely feels lighter than previous models. The slightly rounded outer design also makes holding surprising a lot more comfortable. Camera quality is also improved. If your familiar with… Read more
the iOS, then the UI and general usability of this phone is the same. Apple certainly make their phones easy to use for all people, perhaps including the luddites. Also, like always with each new release of a iPhone, there is an accompanying firmware (iOS) update that is supplied out of the box, which generally speaking adds more usability features. This model is no different, and I must say I'm enjoying Apple's clever response to making the 'notch' part of the UI. Dynamic island is actually quite useful, and is a intelligent way of getting around the problem of the need to have a cut out for all the sensors and front facing camera. Screen brightness is another stand out feature (Apple quotes 1000 nits) and to be honest this is very useful for using your phone outdoors.
What Comes in the box with the phone? 1 x USB C cable for charging As usual no power brick - the phone is fast charge capable, so you want to invest in one if you dont already posses it.
What are the specs? About 220 grammes 6.7 inch screen 1000 nits of brightness - really useful for seeing in bright outdoors! Titanium outer shell - more rounded design - easier to hold. Pro motion display very smooth user experience with scrolling etc
Any complaints/issues/cons? Obviously price of the phone is the elephant in the room. Over $2000 ($2199) can be a very limiting factor for people to acquiring this phone. A work around for some maybe getting the phone via a network carrier where the carrier will break up the cost of the phone on monthly (interest free) basis over a period you specify, for example 24 or 36 months. The typical Apple build quality will certainly see this phone being used for a minimum of that time and therefore it's 'value' could be viewed in this context?
The UI is arguable a little dated - but widgets any other changes make it a little more 'fresh' as it currently stands.
Pro's Battery life excellent - typically can get 2 days of usage with lite to medium usage of the phone. A full day of use is easily achievable with high usage.
Camera images are of typical high standard associated with the pro models - remember you get one extra camera in the pro models. You will not be disappointed with the image quality - many examples exist online and editing the images if required is very easy.
UI is familiar an easy to navigate as per usual, and works superbly smooth with the pro motion display which gives buttery smooth scrolling with its 120hz display.
Conclusion. As mentioned above, it is definitely worthy upgrade, but in my opinion from only iPhone 11 or below. People on later model iPhones, shouldn't rush to upgrade, unless the 'want' outweighs the 'need'. To this end, my 'wants' always outweigh my 'need', so therefore I do not judge.

I bought 2 iPhone 15 Pro Max, A grade and was very happy with the purchase. Both phones were just like new, we saved heaps. I have purchased phones from Phonebot before and have always been happy with the service and quality of products, I recommend them to anyone. Show details
Good phone does everything you need a smartphone to do. Pro max is a great size for people like me who constantly put down their phone and then can’t remember where as it is visible. I have tried other smartphone but always gone back to Apple. Show details
Very good – Michael had very good shipping times and was very trustworthy as I bank transferred him as he said it would be faster. The iPhone came in less than 5 days and is very legit. Do recommend Show details
Negative reviews
The phone is great but the camera settings aren't great. I have always have an Iphone and never had this issue. Its fussy and the colour grading is off. The phone itself is fine, just the camera.

Apple used to be great but now they're greedy – Phone constantly takes screenshots on its own overheats when charging have had to replace three different times breaks easily and then Apple with their greediness paying for express replacement still charge you an out of warranty fee Show details
Worst Apple phone ever – Bought this phone on a plan, through optus, in 12 months have had the screen replaced 3 times, at a cost of over 500 everytime, and now it has lines through it again. Worst iphone ever. Do not purchase unless you take out Apple warranty, I did not.very very disappointed with my phone. Would not recommend at all. Show details

Bought an high standard ‘ex demo’ level iPhone 15 Pro Max hoping for a great battery life. I received 84% and 997 cycle count. I was hoping for high 80s/90% as I believed an ‘ex demo’ is not used 24/7, but the phone is still ‘excellent’. Maybe, my expectations were a bit high. Friends recommended this company. The phone has no visible scratches… Read more
and at least a year warranty. Let’s hope it keeps working and that Oz mobile keeps to its promises. Delivery time was 5 days.
This is an awesome phone, I love the larger screen compared to my old iPhone 12, and it’s clarity and brightness plus it’s lightning fast. I can highly recommend this product that I purchased through Dick Smith and Green Gadgets, in an as new condition. Show details
Follow-up · This is the best phone I’ve ever owned. It filters spam and annoying phone calls, basically anyone you don’t know they go straight to voicemail, so no message means it wasn’t important. Also the phone announces people who you know by name, a nice feature. The cameras are awesome, super zoom and close ups plus slow motion videos. The clearest… Read more

The screen is one of the most enjoyable parts of the experience. Everything looks incredibly sharp and smooth, whether scrolling through apps, watching videos, or reading.

Video recording feels smooth and professional, making it great for both casual and serious content creation.
Battery life has been consistently strong. It comfortably lasts through a full day of heavy use, including browsing, streaming, and taking photos.

Imaging is very perferfrcy Telescope. I love star gazing and this iPhone gives me images beyond expectations – I phone 15 Pro Mx 256GB 2023. Just the best.
Decent, but about time to have new features – Not a bad overall phone. It still does the job and I love the size. Can’t really see an improvement in battery usage or the camera though. It would be nice to have useful new features. Show details
Insulting customer service – The charging cable did’nt charge anymore after only 6 months. So went to Apple for replacement, this took almost an hour, coz I was treated with contempt, staff did’nt want to replace, saying I must present receipt. One rep in particular was very insulting with her adamant insistence on receipt. Anyway the manager eventually agreed with me… Read more
that no receipt is needed coz Apple knows when Iphone was purchased. I told the manager that the public has different and many of seeing things, however I’m not dealing with public, I’m dealing with Apple. Also I told manager that violence comes in 3 forms, mental, physical and verbal but a customer should not experience any type, coz these reps were violent
A Bad Apple – After spending almost $2000 on this phone, I find that it doesn't come with a charger. Come on Apple. How much would it cost to throw a charger in with the pack. Ridiculous - $2000 and no charger! So I thought I'd use my power bank to charge the phone. Nada. The phone recognises it as an accessory and says it's too powerful. Give me a… Read more
break. So now I have a brand new phone but no ability to charge it until I can make my way to very distant shops. Not all of us have the ability to just pop out to the shops. I suppose only an Apple product at an exorbitant cost (OF COURSE) is the only way to charge the phone. Last Apple product I'll be buying.
