The iPhone users are swayed by a diverse array of appealing iPhone 15 colors. A Barbie pink version has won the hearts of many users on Twitter.
The iPhone 15 is expected to ditch the Lightning port in favor of the USB-C standard. This change would be a consequence of the recent EU rules on chargers.
Launching Date
According to a recent article by Bloomberg reporter Mark Gurman, Apple is aiming to announce its iPhone 15 on either September 13 or 12 and release it a week later. This is in line with past iPhone updates and follows the normal timing for new iPhones to release.
There are a few major changes expected, including a new color and improved cameras for Pro models. There are rumors that suggest Pro Max could get a periscopic camera for six times zoom.
The ‘Pro’ models are also likely to maintain the 120 Hz refresh rate introduced by the iPhone 13 Pro. Moreover, the ‘Pro Max’ model may have one physical button that has haptic feedback, which could be used to do multiple tasks like muting, accessibility choices, flashlight activation, concentration mode, as well as opening apps. Additionally, it can function as a power switch, which allows fast charging. Note that the iPhone 15 will no longer be able to use its Lightning connector. Instead, it will be replaced with a USB-C connection.
Technology Update
Some notable technology updates are anticipated in the iPhone 15. According to reports, the Pro and Max/Ultra models are expected to shift from Lightning to USB-C ports. According to reports, this change is necessary iphone 15 to comply with EU laws, however Apple may also be looking at ways to lower the cost of components.
In addition, the rumor mill suggests that all iPhone 15 models will retain the 120 Hz refresh speed. Apple will reportedly tweak its display driver chip so that it is more efficient in energy use that will lead to improved battery life.
As for other modifications the leaked CAD picture implies that the mute switch might be replaced with one multi-use Action button similar to that of the Apple Watch Ultra. The button is programmable and can perform a variety of actions such as using accessibility features, switching the sound setting, activating the camera application or turning on the flashlight as well as activating the concentration mode or running shortcuts. There is a possibility that the phone may also come with a lens that can offer the possibility of up to six times optical zoom.
Price
If you’re looking to save money and can put off buying until after it’s official that the iPhone 15 series is launched on September 1, you may have the opportunity to purchase an old model from a retail or service provider. Apple tends to pull the plug on older models once it’s announced new models however, so you might find an affordable price.
But the likelihood is that you’ll have to pay more for the Pro or Max model this year. According to reports, the phones will feature a new chip, improved cameras (including the latest telephoto lens for Pro Max) Pro Max), and the titanium model will have transparent glass.
Additionally an Barclays analyst believes that these phones could be at least $100-$200 more expensive than the iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max or 13 Pro Max respectively. The data comes from information collected from supply chain businesses from Asia. If this proves to be correct then it will be an enormous blow to Apple’s revenue.
