In the highly anticipated annual iPhone event, Apple will be unveiling its latest addition to the iPhone family: the iPhone 15. As the tech giant continues its tradition of innovation, here’s a sneak peek at what you can expect from this new release.
Design and Display
One of the most notable changes is the shift to USB-C from the Lightning port, a change influenced by European regulations. All models of the iPhone 15, including the standard and Pro versions, will feature this new port. Additionally, the infamous notch that has been a part of the iPhone’s design since the X model is set to be replaced with the Dynamic Island, offering a sleeker and more immersive display.
While all models will adopt these design changes, exclusive features such as thinner bezels and a titanium frame will be reserved for the Pro lineup, making them even more enticing.
Performance
Apple never fails to impress with its chipsets, and the iPhone 15 is no exception. The standard iPhone 15 models will be powered by the A16 chip, while the Pro versions will boast the more efficient 3-nanometer A17 chips, promising faster performance and efficiency.
Camera Upgrades
The iPhone 15 and 15 Plus will feature a 48-megapixel Main camera and a 12-megapixel Ultra Wide camera, promising even better photography experiences. But the real excitement lies in the iPhone 15 Pro Max, which will introduce periscope lens technology for enhanced zoom capabilities, allowing optical zooms of up to 5x or even 10x. This technology brings a new dimension to iPhone photography.
Mute Switch to Action Button
The iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max are expected to replace the Mute Switch with an Action Button. The Action Button will be programmable to work as some of the following: toggle Silent mode on/off, turn flashlight on/off, start Voice Memo, Accessibility, launch Camera app.
Pricing
As for pricing, the standard iPhone 15 will start at $799, with the larger iPhone 15 Plus at $899. However, the Pro models might see a price hike, with predictions suggesting a $100 increase.
