Release date, rumours. Specifications. Price. What we want to See.

We are so used Apple’s regular smartphone releases each year that we don’t even notice the release of iPhone 14This event is one of the most dramatic in recent history. Although the base model was virtually identical to its predecessors, Apple introduced the Plus and Pro devices with a punch-hole display.

It can be instantly recalled Dynamic IslandThe biggest iPhone design change in years is the screen cut feature. It was a way to make up for the lack in innovation in Apple’s flagship line of phones. Many consumers decided not to upgrade. Will the 2023 iPhone 15-series deliver more than cosmetic improvements and convince more people? Let’s find the answer.

Will there be an iPhone 15 Series?

The annual iPhone update is just as certain as the seasons. Even though the phones aren’t changing much, we can be certain that Apple will release new versions. This will be accompanied by a great launch party and flashy marketing. The rumors and leaks circulating around the iPhone 15 Series will not change in 2023, as shown by the leaks and rumors.

In 2023, we expect four new iPhone models with the same basic blueprint. These include iPhone 14lineup, it will likely include a regular iPhone 15 with a larger screen than the Plus (even when it is smaller). Sales were not greatFor the iPhone 14 Plus), and two more expensive, more advanced phones. Although the naming scheme might remain the same, rumors suggest that Apple may consider making the iPhone Ultra the iPhone Pro Max. This will be in keeping the company’s recent branding. Top notch Apple WatchThey might be able to charge a higher cost. It should be distinguished from the smaller iPhone Pro with new materials and improved capabilities.

The announcements of the last two iPhone generations took place in September, and they went on sale soon after. We expect an iPhone 15 launch event in September 2023. However, Apple has not indicated that it will end this cycle by 2023.

Apple could show a boosted iPhone 15 Ultra at another event if it decides that it wants to mix things up. A single ad seems unlikely, based on what we know.

What specifications and features will the iPhone 15 series offer?

Dynamic island changed the design of the entire city. iPhone 14 ProYou might expect 2023 devices to look very similar to existing models. However, there may be some significant new features in the future.

It’s obvious that Apple will release an entirely new processor. NikkiThe A17 Bionic could be TSMC’s first 3nm-processed product. Hopefully this will be used across all iPhone 15 models — Apple kept its new A16 Bionic for the iPhone 14 Pro and Pro Max while the cheaper models stuck with the last generation of silicon. Apple may build its own modems, but Pro devices could benefit from more RAM in 2023.bloombergIt doesn’t appear to be ready for the next iPhones. The Qualcomm modems should be able to last another year.

Apple has admitted that it will need to comply with EU law. Get rid of its lighting outletIn favor of the USB C connector However, the mandate will not be effective until 2024. bloombergMark Gurman is one of many who believe that Apple may remove the bandage earlier and stick it to USB-C port on iPhone 15 series. If this turns out to be true, it would be a seismic event in the world of Apple devices — millions of lightning cables will no longer be useful to anyone. A person buying a new iPhone. Apple, like many other smartphone manufacturers, no longer includes a charging cable in the box. You may still need to upgrade your bricked iPhone 15 even though you will receive a USB-C-to-USB-C cable in your iPhone 15 purchase.

This will be a positive, even though it may cause inconvenience for those who have a lot lighting accessories. Apple iPads and Macs have used USB-C for years. This means you will have one less cable to take on your next trip. It’s unclear if Apple will bring USB-C to iPhone 15, but it is possible that it would. It can choose to update only Pro models, or certain SKUs only in certain regions. Apple might limit the transfer speeds of lower-end iPhone models to differentiate them. It will be interesting to see if this is a temporary measure, but it could be short-lived with rumors circulating about a completely portless iPhone in the coming years.

The most anticipated feature on the iPhone 14 Pro and Pro Max was its cut-out display. However, the regular iPhone 14 and new Plus models had to accept the old notch. Rumors claim that (trans Ross YoungAll iPhone 15 models will come with the latest tablet-shaped slot and Dynamic Island software experience. The iPhone 16 Pro will get a more advanced version with invisible Face ID sensors under its display and a smaller camera hole. We’ll have to wait to see.

Better photos

Apple’s smartphone cameras are always innovative, regardless of whether they are smart or better hardware. We expect it to be 2023. Sony’s latest and greatest imaging sensorTo improve the performance of main camera (maybe reserved to Pro models). It is described as a “state of art” sensor that can absorb greater light and double the signal level per pixel.

Even more fascinating are the rumors that Apple may finally make a decision endoscope lensThe iPhone 15 Pro Max/Ultra has optical zoom capabilities of either 5x or 6x. Apple is catching up with Android flagships that have fold-zoom cameras for years. It’s still an intriguing prospect, but it could mark the largest iPhone camera upgrade since years.

Recognize the curves and embrace them again

Apple abandoned curved iPhones in favor of the flat-edge iPhone 12. Apple could mix and match the iPhone 15 with its rounded edges, moving to at least one side of their device. According to the passenger ShimpAppleProFor the iPhone 5C, the front of the device will be flat and the back will curve. Although it may seem odd, Apple is known for offering complementary design colors across its product lines.

This leak also points out titanium as a frame material (maybe for the Ultra), which is something we have heard before. These could all lead to a decrease in supply chain capacity. So don’t be surprised that the iPhone 15 will not have the same design and none of these materials bear fruit.

Other The smallest anecdotes are rumorsIt features 8K video recording, and battery life improvements up to 4hrs over the more costly model.

How much does the iPhone 15 Series cost?

The price hike for the iPhone 14 lineup was not a problem for American consumers. But it isn’t for those from across the pond. Prices have gone up to £150 in the UK and up to €200 in various European markets. This means that the flagship iPhone 14 Pro Max started at £1,200 / €1,449 (UK and Germany). In contrast, you can get a Pixel 7 Pro with the same 128GB of storage for just £849 / €899 at launch – Apple’s prices in Europe seem unreasonable by comparison.

If Apple maintains the same pricing for iPhone 15 in the US, then we would expect to see the initial pricing (for 128GB).

• iPhone 15 – $799
• iPhone 15 Plus – $899
• iPhone 15 Pro – $999
• iPhone 15 Pro Max – $1,099

If the iPhone 15 Pro Max turns to be a premium iPhone 15 Ultra then expect its price increase. Higher-end materials like titanium and enhanced features may be available at a starting price as low as $1,299 (leaksThrough Forbes) – That’s $200 more than the iPhone 14 Pro Max. Although we don’t know if similar increases will occur for other iPhone models, reports indicate that the iPhone 14 Series was approximately 20% more expensive to make, so it is possible that that extra cost could be passed on to consumers in the US. .

New design

Apple’s square design aesthetic first appeared with the iPhone 4, and was revived for iPhone 12. Although it’s a popular design, it makes the devices less comfortable to hold. We would love to see a new design approach for the next iPhone. However, it seems that we might have to wait until the iPhone 16 for that. In this instance, we’ll settle on Dynamic Island for the iPhones with lower prices.

The iPhone has been lagging behind Android competitors in this area, so it is possible that the famous zoom lens is real. The Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra has a 10x optical zoom, while the Pixel 7 Pro, which is much more affordable, can achieve a 5x optical zoom. It’s time to upgrade your iPhone’s zoom to 3x so it can compete against the best cameras.

USB-C, finally

This is a highly-rumored development, and it’s almost time! Although the humble lighting port has served us well over the years, when you see products such as iPads and MacBooks charging with USB-C, it’s time for you to take the plunge and install the same port on your phones.

While Android OEMs have been breaking boundaries with faster charging — check out Oppo’s insane 125W fast charging tech — Apple’s iPhones are stuck with glacial charging speeds. The iPhone 14 Pro Max can theoretically reach 29W with the correct charger, but this is still not fast enough. Most iPhones charge at around 22W with wired charging, and 15W with MagSafe wireless. Apple’s base model iPhone charger has a 20W limit. We want faster charging for iPhones as a standard feature, and we have wanted it for many years.
