Recent reports indicate that the iPhone 15 series is progressing smoothly, with plans for mass production in August and a scheduled release in September. The overall design has been finalized, allowing accessory manufacturers to obtain detailed measurements and 1:1 models in order to prepare accessories in advance.
A Twitter user has shared images of the iPhone 15 series models, including the iPhone 15, iPhone 15 Plus, iPhone 15 Pro, and iPhone 15 Pro Max, revealing their appearance details. While the new phones largely resemble their predecessors, the iPhone 15 series will feature narrower frames, with the Pro version even approaching the standards set by Android flagship devices.
The entire iPhone 15 series will incorporate Smart Island displays, though the standard version will still offer a 60Hz refresh rate, missing out on the smoother high-speed experience. Additionally, all models in the series will adopt USB Type-C, although there will likely be variations in transmission rates between the standard and Pro versions.
One significant change in appearance is the mute button, which has been replaced with a “solid-state button” exclusive to the Pro version. This modification allows for customization of corresponding functions through DIY, but it may pose challenges in easily determining the mute status. Reports suggest that Apple is preparing for a future generation that eliminates physical buttons altogether.
Notably, the iPhone 15 series is expected to feature increased battery capacity across the lineup, with the following approximate sizes:
- iPhone 15: 3877mAh
- iPhone 15 Plus: 4912mAh
- iPhone 15 Pro: 3650mAh
- iPhone 15 Pro Max: 4852mAh
The Pro version, equipped with a 3nm A17 chip, is anticipated to deliver remarkable battery life performance, potentially setting a new standard for high-end smartphones.
