Apple will release the iPhone 15 series of smartphones in 2023. Like the iPhone 14 family, the series will likely consist of at least four models. From USB Type-C charging port to Dynamic Island on non-pro models, the iPhone 15 series is expected to introduce many new features for the first time.
Although we are almost a year away from the next generation of iPhones, there is a lot of speculation about the future iPhone models. Here’s everything we know about the iPhone 15, iPhone 15 Plus, and the iPhone 15 Pro.
Apple iPhone 15 design language
Apple iPhones are due for a design change. The current generation of iPhone 14 is almost similar to the iPhone 12 series of smartphones with a flat frame and flat screen.
According to the leaks, the iPhone 15 series will sport a redesigned frame. While the frame may not be as round as the iPhone XS or iPhone 11 series, the iPhone 15 is likely to have a slightly rounded metal frame.
It is even said that Apple would use titanium instead of stainless steel on the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max, while the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus may get a regular aluminum frame.
The most notable change in the iPhone 15 series is the USB Type-C port. Apple will finally replace the aging lighting port with a USB Type-C port, which should enable faster data transfer between a computer and an iPhone.
Although Apple may not introduce 100W or 200W fast charging like some Android phones, we can expect a slight increase in the charging speed of the iPhone 15 series compared to their predecessors.
iPhone 15 series processor
According to the current trend, the iPhone 15 and the iPhone 15 Plus will be based on the A16 Bionic processor, possibly with 6 GB of RAM. The iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max, on the other hand, get the brand new A17 Bionic, which reportedly uses TSMC’s advanced 3nm fabrication for improved power efficiency.
The 3nm node will also help Apple increase the number of transistors on the silicon without increasing the die area. Again, compared to the A16 Bionic, the A17 Bionic is probably 30 percent faster in CPU, GPU, and AI performance.
It is said that Apple’s internal 5G modem is not ready for prime time, and that the iPhone 15 series will continue to use Qualcomm’s 5G modem, while the iPhone 15 Pro series with the A17 Bionic is likely to receive a new will contain 5G modem. modem that is more energy efficient and can support a wide range of 5G bands around the world.

The iPhone 15 Pro and 15 Pro Max will get 6.1-inch and 6.7-inch OLED displays with features like Dynamic Island, 120Hz refresh rate and improved peak brightness, and may even get new and improved Ceramic Shield glass protection .
Reports almost confirm that the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus will also get an OLED panel with Dynamic Island. However, features such as a higher refresh rate and always-on display are likely to remain exclusive to the pro models.

Apple iPhone 15 Ultra
With the introduction of the Watch Ultra, Apple has us speculating about the iPhone Ultra. Is it called iPhone 15 Ultra or just iPhone Ultra? We may have to wait a few more months to get an official confirmation on this.
For now, let’s stick with the iPhone 15 Ultra, the most powerful and capable iPhone Apple has ever made. The company may even have a custom fast A17 Bionic processor with more RAM and faster storage.
The iPhone 15 Ultra is also expected to have an improved camera setup and it could also be the first iPhone to feature a periscope zoom. This could also be the first-ever iPhone without physical ports and could rely on a new and improved MagSafe system to charge.
