What UK owners report

"The battery is unreal" — I end most days with 40% left even with heavy use. The big screen makes everything better.

"Worth the upgrade" — Coming from a 14 Pro Max the difference is huge. Cameras, speed and the display are all noticeably better.

"Best phone I have owned" — The Deep Blue colour looks premium and the 512GB storage means I never worry about space for videos.
