My last “Plus” sized iPhone was the iPhone 8 Plus, and I loved that phone. I spent a lot of time commuting at the time, and the extra screen made watching Netflix and playing games much more enjoyable.

From the moment I switched open the 15 Plus, I was hit by a wave of nostalgia for my old 8 Plus, though it quickly became apparent that the 15 Plus is superior in every possible way. 

The iPhone 15 Pro is, in my opinion, the best iPhone you can buy right now. But the iPhone 15 Plus offers a whole heap to keep you interested.

The biggest decision factor when choosing any iPhone this year is going to come down to budget, and that’s where I think the 15 Plus will miss out.
