Apple will be offering four new models: iPhone 15, iPhone 15 Plus, iPhone 15 Pro, iPhone 15 Pro Max. The iPhone 15 standard models are expected to get some considerable upgrades. The new iPhone 15 is expected to get rid of the notch that has been around since the iPhone X series.


Apple will be launching its new line of iPhones on September 12 at the Wonderlust event. The majority of the new features for the iPhone 15 series have been widely leaked. However, we must wait for the official price. There are both positive and bad news regarding price. Similar to yesteryear iPhones, we get two standard iPhone models and two Pro models which will sell at a premium compared to the non-Pro models. The iPhone 15, iPhone 15 Plus, iPhone 15 Pro, and iPhone 15 Pro Max are the four new versions that Apple will be releasing.

It's anticipated that the iPhone 15 basic versions will receive some significant changes. The notch, which has been present on iPhones since the iPhone X series, is anticipated to disappear with the next iPhone 15. The Dynamic Island, which made its debut in last year's model, will take its position. The amount of screen space for consumers will grow as a result. The size of the bezel is also anticipated to decrease. Another far-fetched theory is that Apple would increase the primary camera's resolution from 12 MP to 48MP. The A16 Bionic chipset, which powered the Pro versions from last year, will now power the iPhone 15. It is also anticipated that the USB Type-C connector will replace the Lightning cord on both non-Pro and pro devices.
