The differences between Apple’s iPhone 14 and 14 Pro models were shockingly wide, but they are about to become wider with the launch of iPhone 15 line-up.
Multiple specification and design differences between the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Pro models, including information sourced from leaked internal Apple documents by leaker Unknownz21.
Reports he obtained “confirm” that Apple’s new 3nm A17 chipset will be exclusive to iPhone 15 Pro models, as will a redesigned chassis with solid state power and volume buttons. Even the phones’ connectivity will be different, with Wi-Fi 6E reserved for the Pros — something previous leaks had not distinguished.
For this latter point, given its unprecedented nature (for example, all iPhone 14 models used Wi-Fi 6), Unknownz21 publicly released the documentation. He also called this “the tip of the iceberg,” with additional leaks, including full images, to follow ahead of the range’s EVT (Engineering Validation Test) stage, which begins in March.
Considering that the new line-up will feature superior cameras and exclusive ProMotion displays, iPhone 15 and 15 Plus will probably lack parity with their more expensive siblings.
This is something budget iPhone users might be unhappy about and widening the gap between 15, 15 Plus and the upper-end models is unlikely to give the latter the sales boost.
Only time will tell if Apple’s gamble is worth it.
