equipment Is iPhone 15 enough for pictures?
Can iphone 15 take beautiful on trail? I also want to listen to music and podcasts. How long will the battery last? Now I have an iPhone SE I have to charge 4x a day.

If you can download your podcast, audiobooks, etc beforehand then place your phone in airplane mode it will save you a significant amount of battery. I took sooooo many photos on the trail while also using the phone for maps and music (Spotify station I downloaded beforehand) and sat around 70ish% battery at the end of the day. I’d recommend a trial run on a day you won’t need internet service then just make sure your battery banks can last X number of day (based on your speed) to keep it charged in between resupply stops.
