The standard iPhone 15 models will trade in the notch for the Dynamic Island, while the Pro and Pro Max displays will be made with a new technology: low-injection pressure over-molding, or “LIPO” as it's dubbed inside Apple.
Release Date and Availability
The iPhone 15 models will likely be released in September 2023 if Apple follows its traditional September launch timeline.
As a result, the iPhone 15 range will be priced like this: iPhone 15: starting from $799. iPhone 15 Plus: starting from $899.
Apple's highly anticipated iPhone 15 series launch is likely to be delayed into October, pushing the smartphones beyond their typical early September timeframe, according to an industry insider with a rock-solid track record. A further leak may also have revealed Why.
This would see the iPhone 15, iPhone 15 Plus, iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max go on sale on Friday, September 15. If it's the following week, the announcement will take place on Tuesday, September 12, with the phones hitting stores on Friday, September 22.
In a research note this month, obtained by MacRumors, Long said he expects the iPhone 15 Pro to cost up to $100 more than the iPhone 14 Pro, and the iPhone 15 Pro Max to be $100 to $200 more expensive than the iPhone 14 Pro Max.
Reports claim that the iPhone 15 Pro Max is expected to get major upgrades such as a USB Type-C port, periscope camera, A17 Bionic SoC, and more. The iPhone 15 series could also feature Apple's Dynamic Island across all models, a feature that has been reserved for the Pro models until now.
The Cupertino-based technology giant is expected to equip iPhone 15 Pro models with USB-C port, titanium frame, customizable Action button among others. It might be powered by a faster A17 Bionic chip, thinner bezels, Wi-Fi 6E support, increased RAM and upgraded Ultra Wideband among other features.
For example, if you take good care of your iPhone & don't use it excessively, it will last longer than if you're constantly dropping it & exposing it to other wear & tear. Additionally, the newer model of iPhone you have will also play a role in how long it lasts. On average, iPhones last around two to three years.
So far, it looks like the iPhone 15 Pro models will have an updated design, with Apple introducing much thinner, curved bezels and a new titanium chassis. Apple is also expected to add a redesigned "mute" button that could actually serve as an Action button similar to the Action button on the Apple Watch Ultra.
Pricing and Availability
iPhone 14 Pro pricing starts at $999 for 128GB of storage, while pricing on the iPhone 14 Pro Max starts at $1,099 for 128GB of storage. Additional storage is available for a higher price.
While the base iPhone 15 may be getting a larger screen than the one found on the iPhone 14, all signs indicate that the iPhone 15 Plus will have a 6.7-inch display, the same as the one found in the iPhone 14 Plus.
If the report is accurate, the full color lineup for the iPhone 15 will include the following colors: Midnight, Starlight, Green, Yellow, Pink, and Product(RED). The news apparently comes from a Foxconn employee who saw the new colors (Foxconn is Apple's primary manufacturing partner for the iPhone).
The iPhone 14 was made available on September 16, 2022, and iPhone 14 Plus was made available on October 7, 2022, priced at $799 and $899 respectively and was launched with iOS 16. Pre-orders for the iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus began on September 9, 2022. Apple Inc. Big and bigger.
However when it comes to iPhones, you can expect between three to five years (maybe more) with proper care.
Although Samsung now offers four years of major Android updates for its flagships and mid-range phones, iPhones can easily last for five to six years. However, there's one important caveat to this. Smartphone batteries are made of lithium-ion which means they inevitably degrade over time.
The iPhone 15 series is tipped to offer four phones- iPhone 15, iPhone 15 Plus, iPhone 15 Pro and high-end iPhone 15 Pro Max. According to Tim Long, an analyst at British bank Barclays, it is likely that Apple's upcoming iPhone 15 Pro models will be more expensive than the current ones.
Since iOS 15 was released, we've seen reports of issues with battery life, and an uptick in complaints with each new point release since then. iOS 15 battery life problems can be caused by issues that Apple needs to address in the software, or when excessively using GPS, system-intensive apps and games, and more.
New features. The bulk of the improvements in iOS 15 come in the updates to many of Apple's own apps. There are also some new features that work across multiple apps, such as Shared With You and Focus, which should make life much easier when the new version arrives later this year.
Even if you think you'd be happy with an iPhone 14, there's reason to wait, because once the iPhone 15 launches, the iPhone 14 is sure to drop in price. Apple's phones tend to hold their value quite well, but the launch of a new model typically sees their prices cut, as they're no longer the latest version.
Apple has long been taking on the rising costs of production, transportation, personnel, etc., in addition to inflation, especially in 2022. Rumors had suggested that the iPhone 14 Pro would go up in price, but that didn't happen in the end.
