The main difference between the two phones is the larger display size. The iPhone 15 Plus has a 6.7-inch display compared to the iPhone 15’s 6.1-inch display. That larger display also means room for a larger battery, with Apple advertising 26-hours of battery life on the iPhone 15 Plus, compared to 20-hours for the iPhone 15.
Elsewhere, the designs are similar and the cameras are exactly the same. Both models have a dual-camera array on the rear of the phone with a 48-megapixel main camera and a 12-megapixel ultra-wide camera. Both phones run on Apple’s A16 Bionic chipset.
The iPhone 15 Plus received a four star review from Trusted Reviews in November 2023 and we slapped a ‘Recommended’ Badge on it for good measure. We’re fans of the large 6.7-inch display, exceptional camera performance and nice ergonomics that make it comfortable to hold.
Our final thoughts on Apple’s entry-level big-screen iPhone
Our own Lewis Painter said you should buy the iPhone 15 Plus if you want a big screen phone without splashing out on the most expensive phone in the range, the iPhone 15 Pro Max.
He wrote: “The size of the 6.7-inch display of the iPhone 15 Plus perfectly matches the iPhone 15 Pro Max, giving you the core big-screen experience without splashing out for the top-end model.
“It also still delivers the best battery life of any iPhone, with even hardcore use not fully draining the battery over a day.”
