Apart from a larger screen, the Apple iPhone 15 Plus and iPhone 15 share many of the same specs, including the same A16 Bionic processor. We tested the iPhone 15 Plus display, and as expected, the results were mostly the same as those for iPhone 15. Overall, these two products had a very similar performance despite a different screen-to-body ratio and some slight differences in color rendering.
For a more detailed look at the iPhone 15 Plus’s display performance, please see the test results of the Apple iPhone 15.
