The iPhone 14 series launched on September 7th and is yet to make it to the masses give the huge demand and supply. However, rumors mills have already started churning out updates on the next-gen devices aka iPhone 15 series that will be launched next year in September. Apparently, there’s another hint that the iPhone 15 Pro Max will be summoned as iPhone 15 Ultra which goes in line with the claims made by tipster Mark Gurman.
Apple could rename top of the line Apple iPhone 15 Pro Max
According to the latest update, the next year’s iPhone 15 Pro Max will be renamed as iPhone 15 Ultra which is true for sure. The phone will be the top-of-the-line as usual and attract an expensive pricing of $1,199 as opposed to $1,099 on the latest counterpart.
If that’s not enough, we have that the entire iPhone 15 series could get USB-C port for charging as opposed to the lightning port used now. It is probably due to European Union’s decision to make it mandatory for Apple to use USB-C port instead of its proprietary one.
Apple iPhone 15 lineup: Updates on Dynamic Island, Battery & More
Moving on, there will be at least four models dubbed the iPhone 15, iPhone 15 Plus, iPhone 15 Pro, and iPhone 15 Ultra (unless the Pro Max branding stays). Again, these models will be segregated into Pro and non-Pro variants with 6.1″ on the standard and Pro variants whole the Plus and Ultra will get a 6.7″ display. Above that, all the models are expected to get Dynamic Island onboard as opposed to only the pro variants this year. Adding onto the same, the vanilla 15 and 15 Plus won’t get Always-On Display (AOD) and ProMotion technology as it is usually for the Pro models.
Talking about the key specifications, iPhone 15 Pro and Ultra will make their way to the next-gen A17 Bionic SoC whereas non-pro models will get the processor used on current-gen Pro devices. While digging for more information, we came across a report that said Apple will create a distinction between Pro and Ultra models as well. It means Ultra will get some unique features not available on Pro, as simple as that.
We aren’t done just yet. We heard that Apple is expected to include a little more battery juice on the Ultra variant that could give out a backup of 3-4 hours additionally although that remains to be seen.
Finally, the last piece of the puzzle is around the video recording. Apparently, Apple could integrate next year’s iPhone lineup with 8K video recording capabilities. All these rumors sound intriguing, however, note that these are at the end of the day, rumors, and can turn out to be a hoax as well. Take it with a pinch of salt as we bring more updates on the next-gen iPhone 15 lineup.
