As usual, Apple iPhone 15 is expected to release in September, 2023. However, the iPhone 15 rumors isn’t due until September. Moreover, the rumours have already been circulating online as we edge closer to Apple’s highly anticipated yearly September announcements.
Furthermore, in the next two (2) months, Apple may introduce new iPhone 15 series including iPhone 15 Pro, iPhone 15 Pro Max and iPhone 15 Mini. Although, Apple hasn’t officially specify its next flagship iPhone, but there are plenty of credible iPhone 15 rumours for us to checkout.
iPhone 15 Predicted Features and Upgrades
iPhone 15 is likely to have the new Bionic A17 chipset. In 2022, Apple chipped Bionic A16 processor into iPhone 14 Pro. Hence, the upcoming Apple’s flagship phone is expected to upgrade with the company’s new Bionic A17 processor.
Furthermore, we’re expecting four series of iPhone 15 in the next release. They’re, iPhone 15 Plus, iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Ultra (which is rumoured to replace the Pro Max model).
Moreso, according to Apple’s Marketing Chief, Greg Joswiak has suggested the next iPhone’s upgrade will make the switch from Lightning to USB-C – that would be in line with new EU rules set to come into force in 2024.
In summary to iPhone 15’s predicted features and system updates, the 2022 iPhone 14 brought more exclusive upgrades, much is expected from 2023 iPhone 15.
Apple iPhone 15 Release Date Rumour
As previously stated, Apple hasn’t officially ulter a word about the existence of iPhone 15, let alone the iPhone 15 release date. But since the phone manufacturer usually launch new iPhones at the same time each year, it’s highly likely you’ll see the iPhone 15 arrive in September 2023.
The 2021 iPhone 13 was released on Tuesday 14th September 2021 while the iPhone 14 launch was made on Wednesday 7th September 2022. Therefore, if Apple is used to launching of iPhone on early weeks of September, the iPhone 15 could probably released on 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th, 11th, 12th or 13th of September 2023.
Furthermore, occasionally, iPhone 15 releases event is tend to held at Apple Park headquarters in California, and tend to start at 10am PT / 1pm ET / 6pm BST / 4am AEST.
iPhone 15 Camera Expectations
Frankly speaking, the 2022 iPhone 14 Pro Max Camera, especially the cinematic feature, amuse everyone in the industry. However, the base models of the iPhone 15 series may include 48-megapixel cameras, identical to existing 12-megapixel sensors in previous iPhones.
Furthermore, do have it in mind that like iPhone 14 series, the optical zoom with a telephoto lens and LiDAR technology may be unavailable on ordinary model of the iPhone 15 and found only in more expensive variants such as iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max.
Moreover, there have been rumours that the iPhone 15 Pro Max model’s camera module has been upgraded with periscope lenses that offers 5-6x optical zoom, in addition to more sensors and clearances.
iPhone 15 Price Predictions
Although, there’s no official announcement from Apple regarding iPhone 15s prices. But, comparing the iPhone 14 models to price prediction, we’d expect something similar. When iPhone 14 was first released, the price tag started at £849 / $799 / AU$1399 / CA$14200.
However, here are predicted prices for latest Apple iPhone 15 models; ordinary iPhone 15 is expected to be released with a price tag of $850 or less, iPhone 15 Plus with a price tag of $999 or less, iPhone 15 Pro with a price tag of $1200 or less, iPhone 15 Pro Max (Ultra) with a price tag of $1300.
According to Apple’s CEO, Tim Cook recently cited that iPhone is now so important to people’s lives, that they’re willing to pay even more than the current prices.
The iPhone has become so integral into people’s lives. I think people are willing to really stretch to get the best they can afford in that category. – Tim Cook, Apple CEO said on an earnings call to investors.
This could probably increase the iPhone 15 Price tag, especially the most upgraded model – iPhone 15 Pro Max (Ultra), to $1500 or more.
iPhone 15 Battery Life
Although, Apple hasn’t review any information regarding the battery life and charging capacity of it next flagship. But, do note that the most affordable Android phone offer rapid charging speeds of at least 30W. Therefore, Apple should be wise enough to offer to include better battery life and charging capacities.
However, we’ve seen the existing iPhones only supporting 20W charging technology, whereas phones costing under $400 already offer 80W fast charging, resulting in longer durations to achieve full battery capacity. So, more charging capacities and battery durations is expected of Apple’s upcoming iPhone 15 series.
Apple iPhone 15s will Likely not Have Charger
However, this feature is not new. Starting from iPhone 12 models, Apple hasn’t added charger in the iPhone’s retail kits. Therefore, no charger is expected to be released with iPhone 15 series.
iPhone 15 Design and Colours
Apple iPhone 15 is rumoured to have similar look to the existing iPhone 14 series. But we can expect a few tweaks. According to 9To5Mac and a reliable tipster on Weibo reports, iPhone 15 Pro will come in an exclusive “crimson” colour option.
Furthermore, according to Analyst Ross Young in a tweet, Apple is expected to expand the ‘pill-shaped’ Dynamic Island to all four iPhone 15 models. Moreover, this feature has been on standard models on the iPhone 14 series.
In addition to iPhone 15 colours, a new green colour option for the regular iPhone 15 is expecteded to be released. Apple has previously reported to be aiming for a tint “close to the green of the iPhone 12 and iPhone 11”.
However, iPhone 15s colours are not yet reviewed by Apple, therefore, the news should be considered rumour.
