6 Hidden Features of iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Pro

Hello, iPhone 15 and 15 Pro users! In this post, we'll introduce 6 useful features you might not know about. Some of these features are only available on the newest iPhone models, so let's take a look together.

1. 80% Charge Limit

The iPhone 15 and 15 Pro offer a feature that limits charging to 80% to extend battery life. With this setting, your iPhone won't charge beyond 80%, helping to maintain battery performance over time. If you need to maximize your battery life, you can change this setting in 'Battery > Battery Health & Charging > Optimized Battery Charging'.

2. New Battery Statistics

The iPhone 15 provides useful statistics related to battery life. You can find the battery's manufacturing date, first use date, and charge cycles in 'Settings > General > About > Battery'. This information can be helpful for understanding your battery's health and useful when selling your phone used.

3. Automatic Portrait Mode

The iPhone 15 and 15 Pro automatically store depth data needed for Portrait mode when detecting people, dogs, cats, and more. This mode is useful when editing images in the Photos app, allowing you to adjust depth or select focus as needed. You don't need to manually activate Portrait mode.

4. Default Camera Focal Length Setting (Pro)

The iPhone 15 Pro's camera allows you to take photos at 24mm (1x zoom), 28mm (1.2x), and 35mm (1.5x) focal lengths. While this setting is enabled by default, you can disable 28mm and 35mm. You can change this setting in 'Settings > Camera > Default Camera'.

5. 48MP Shooting with ProRAW and HEIF (Pro)

The iPhone 15 Pro's 48MP camera gives you the option to choose between ProRAW or HEIF formats. ProRAW preserves more sensor information, while HEIF significantly reduces file size. You can change this setting in 'Settings > Camera > Formats' or adjust it within the Photos app.

6. Hide Mute Icon (Pro)

On the iPhone 15 Pro, it's hard to tell if the phone is muted just by looking at the mute switch's position. For this reason, a mute icon has been added. To hide the mute icon, you can change the setting in 'Settings > Sounds & Haptics'.
