Apple has just unveiled its latest iPhone 15 series in a grand annual event, introducing four distinct models: iPhone 15, iPhone 15 Plus, iPhone 15 Pro, and iPhone 15 Pro Max.
This release brings significant enhancements to the iPhone lineup, continuing Apple’s tradition of industry-first innovations. Let’s take a closer look at the top five standout features:
Titanium Build
Apple has introduced a new titanium casing for the iPhone 15 Pro and 15 Pro Max.
Crafted from Grade 5 titanium, this casing not only boosts device durability but also makes these Pro models the lightest in the market.
The models come in natural titanium, blue titanium, white titanium, and black titanium color options.
A17 Pro Chipset
Unlike the iPhone 15 and 15 Plus, which feature the A16 Bionic chip from last year’s iPhone 14 Pro models, the Pro variants now boast the groundbreaking A17 Pro chip.
This 3nm chip is an industry-first and offers a 6-core CPU, a 16-core neural engine,
and a newly designed 6-core pro-class GPU, making it the fastest mobile processing chip for exceptional gaming and app performance.
Periscope Zoom Lens
Apple has upgraded the camera system in the iPhone 15 series by incorporating a 12MP periscope telephoto lens.
This enhancement enables 2x optical zoom for iPhone 15 and 15 Plus users, while iPhone 15 Pro users can enjoy 3x optical zoom.
The flagship iPhone 15 Pro Max takes it further with a 5x optical zoom capability thanks to the 12MP telephoto lens.
Action Button
A notable change in the iPhone 15 Pro and 15 Pro Max is the replacement of the traditional silence switch with an action button.
Users can activate and deactivate silent mode with a long tap and customize its functions, such as initiating recording or launching the camera, according to their preferences.
USB Type-C Port
Apple has replaced the Lightning port with a USB Type-C port in all the new iPhone models.
This universal port allows users to charge their MacBook, iPad, and iPhone 15 models with a single cable.
Furthermore, the Pro models feature USB 3 support, offering transfer speeds of up to 10Gbps.
With these exciting new features, the iPhone 15 series marks another significant milestone in Apple’s smartphone innovation journey.
