iPhone 17 Pro Review: 2 Months Later as My Daily Driver

It has been exactly two months since I made the iPhone 17 Pro my daily driver. I skipped the iPhone 16 Pro to upgrade from my 15 Pro, and after 60 days of real-world usage, the honeymoon phase is over. In this review, I break down whether the switch back to aluminum and the new thermal system makes this the ultimate daily driver. In this video: I discuss the controversial return to 7000-series aluminum and the reality of "Scratchgate," specifically why I chose the Silver model over Deep Blue or Cosmic Orange to avoid visible wear. We dive deep into the performance of the A19 Pro chip, which hits a Geekbench single-core score of 3,895 , and how the new Vapor Chamber cooling system has completely solved the overheating issues I faced with my previous phone.   I also cover the new "Triple 48" camera system, testing the 48MP 4x Telephoto lens (100mm) and the new 18MP Center Stage front camera that allows for landscape selfies without rotating your phone. Finally, I give my honest thoughts on battery life after 36 cycles and the current beta state of Apple Intelligence compared to competitors like Gemini.   If you are currently using an iPhone 15 Pro, 14 Pro, or older, this daily driver review will help you decide if you really need to upgrade. #iPhone17Pro #iPhone17ProReview
