The Apple iPhone 15 Plus and Apple iPhone 15 share the same rear camera specs, as well as the same chipset, so as expected, the camera results of the Apple iPhone 15 Plus are exactly the same as those of the Apple iPhone 15.

We’ve included an example from our testing to show the similarities between these two models. But for a more in-depth look at the photography and video performance of the Apple iPhone 15 Plus’ rear camera, we direct you to the full Apple iPhone 15 test results.

SBMARK CHART (DMC) Detail Retention Score vs. Lux Levels for Tripod and Handheld Conditions

This graph shows the evolution of the DMC detail retention score with lux level, for two retention conditions. The DMC Detail Retention Score is derived from an AI-based metric trained to evaluate the performance of texture and detail on a selection of crops from our SBMARK chart.
