Apple is scheduled to launch its next-generation iPhone 15 lineup in September. This event is typically held on the 12th or 13th day of the month.
A brand new 3D render shows thinner bezels and curved edges for Pro models. Additionally, the device is expected to come with Dynamic Island enhancements that permit additional information to be displayed all at once.
Leaks
2023’s iPhone 15 Pro is likely to represent a huge enhancement over the previous model, and it’s expected to feature a new periscope camera and the most recent A17 Bionic chip. Additionally, in addition to these features the iPhone 15 Pro is expected to sport a 120Hz refresh rate that will allow for faster scrolling as well as responsiveness.
A different rumor is that Apple could substitute the physical volume and power buttons with haptic, solid state buttons, similar with the Home button. They’d use vibrations that simulate the feel of pressing a physical button, but they’ll be far more durable and battery-friendly than their physical counterparts.
Another rumor suggests that iPhone 15 Pro and the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max will get cameras with a large bump in size and redesigned buttons, as well in USB-C charging, and slimmer bezels. The report of 9to5Mac which is based upon renderings in CAD by a Case manufacturer, reveals that Pro models will sport a single, elongated volume button and a dedicated mute switch.
Operating system
Apple is expected to keep the 6.1-inch OLED display and its 120 Hz refresh rate which is incredibly popular (including among Tom’s Guide staff). The ProMotion feature is also expected to remain.
Another likely change is switching to USB-C charging. This will allow Apple to comply with the recent European rules. Also, it is possible that the iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max may include a periscope lens, which will give you a higher optical zoom.
The iPhone 15 Pro will probably receive a chip of 3nm and will help improve efficiency in processing as well as reduce power consumption. Also, it may get Bluetooth 5.3 and the upcoming Ultra Wide Band chip, which should improve compatibility and connectivity with it’s Apple Vision Pro headset.
Apple could add an action button, which can be used to perform many functions, including turning on Silent Mode and launching the Camera app. It’s unknown if this button will replace that of physical buttons, or if they will utilize tactile feedback instead.
Camera
There are a lot of upgrades Apple plans to introduce to the iPhone 15 Pro lineup this year, one of the most intriguing will be cameras. It is believed that the iPhone 15 Pro Max will be the only model to get a periscope camera with more optical zoom options that you get with standard phones by using lenses or prisms to expand the lens, and not occupying the space.
Another possibility for improvement in the camera of the ip 15 pro is a triple-stacked sensor that could improve image quality as well as decrease distortion. This technology has been used in some Android phones but isn’t yet available on any iPhones.
There is also speculation that the iPhone 15 Pro will move into USB-C. This could increase the speed of data transfers and allow for faster charging. It’s a big issue for those who use their smartphones as cameras for working and playing.
User experience
Apple’s new iPhone 15 Pro models are anticipated to come with slimmer bezels and rounded edges. The models will also feature a USB-C port, unlike earlier iPhone models with Lightning ports. They will also have a smaller, more capable A17 chip. The improvements will help these iPhone 15 Pro models look more like their non-Pro counterparts.
The other significant difference is a new power button location. Previously, the power button was located beneath those for volume. New design moves the power button towards them, making it more accessible and easier to make use of.
The iPhone 15 Pro Max is likely to also come with the latest periscope lens, which can provide as much as six times optical zoom. This is an enormous enhancement over the present iPhone camera that only has digital zoom. In addition, the iPhone 15 Pro will also feature a brand new camera that can improve the performance of poor lighting conditions. Additionally, it will have the ability to cut down on noise in photos and videos.
