Iphone 15 Plus Case (2023)

FAQs

Does an iPhone 15 Pro need a case? ›

Your hands may affect the iPhone 15 Pro color

According to the company, those who use the new iPhones without a case may notice color changes after a while. That's because “the oil from your skin might temporarily alter the color of the outside band.”

There are differences, however. All four iPhone 15 models have new "contour" edges. Put simply, the corners and edges of the iPhone 15 (and Pro) are curvier than the iPhone 14 (and co.), and though the changes may be minor, they do affect how securely the cases snap on.

A protective case continues to be a must for the iPhone. The iPhone 15 Pro/Max hands-on experiences have shown that titanium is stronger, just as expected. But it's prone to scratches, and fingerprints alter the phone's color, making it look dirty.

If you know that you want a new iPhone with the biggest screen possible, you have two options. The iPhone 15 Plus and iPhone 15 Pro Max have the same size screens — both are 6.7 inches across the diagonal — and actually have a lot of other things in common, too.

Ever since the iPhone 7, all iPhones have been rated for splash, water, and dust resistance as tested under controlled laboratory conditions. The higher-end iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max, meanwhile, have water resistance for a depth of 6 meters for up to 30 minutes.

The decision ultimately boils down to your personal preferences and usage habits. If you're meticulous about keeping your iPhone 15 in immaculate condition and want to safeguard it against potential scratches and minor accidents, investing in a quality screen protector is a wise choice.

So your 14 Pro Max case would conflict with the 15 Pro Max's camera bump. So the old iPhone 14 Pro Max case will not fit the iPhone 15 Pro Max. It would be much better to buy a new case. Because this is a new model, no old phone case will fit the new model perfectly.

The only difference is that the iPhone 15 Pro Max has a ProMotion display with support for up to 120Hz refresh rate, whereas the iPhone 15 Plus tops out at 60Hz.

Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, NFC, GPS, and Ultra Wideband

The new Ultra Wideband chip provides improved spatial awareness, allowing iPhone 15 models to more precisely locate other Apple devices with an Ultra Wideband chip. The chip allows two iPhones to connect to each other at three times the range as before.

The ‌iPhone 15 Pro‌ offers a large number of upgrades over the standard ‌iPhone 15‌. With just $200 difference to obtain a display with ProMotion and always-on functionality, the Action Button, and longer battery life, many customers will be able to justify getting the ‌iPhone 15 Pro‌ over the ‌iPhone 15‌.

Do I need a case for my iPhone pro? ›

iPhones are known for their tendency to suffer cracked screens. Newer iPhone models are a bit more crack-resistant than older models, but any drop or bump can still lead to a cracked screen. Using a well-built phone case, such as the Pela iPhone 14 Pro Max Case, is the best way to protect against this kind of damage.

Most of the added bulk come from cases so if you're worried it's better to just add a screen protector. I have had an iPhone X since it's release with no screen protector. No scratches at all. Not even micro scratches.

It should survive most everyday impacts, but it will still break if you drop it from a reasonable height onto a hard surface. If you rarely dropped your previous phones, and they never get a lot of scratches, you might be better off enjoying your iPhone without a case or screen protector.

Even though it may seem weird to buy an accessory for an accessory, it may not be a good idea to use your AirPods Pro without a case because their surface is prone to scratches. If you are spending almost $200 on earbuds, you want to make sure you keep them protected.
