It’s hardly surprising that speculations are intensifying as we approach the anticipated Apple September event. After all, the new iPhone 15 is slated to launch then. This article will analyze the rumors of the next iPhone launch.
How Many iPhones Will Be Released?
On September 2023 iPhone is set to release four phones. The four phones will be variants of the iPhone 15. They will include:
- The regular iPhone 15 will have a 6.1-inch screen, and
- the “Plus” iPhone 15 will have a 6.7-inch screen.
- The other two iPhones, measuring 6.1 and 6.7 inches, will be “Pro” models with upgraded features and a higher price tag, which could go even further this year.
Charging System
Several modifications have been made, such as:
USB-C
iPhone 15 series comes with USB-C to comply with the regulations of Europe. The regulation mandates iPhone to incorporate the USB-C and do away with the Lightning port. Users of the new versions of Apple products, such as iPhones, Macs, and iPads, will now be charging using USB-C chargers.
Transfer Speed of Data Using USB- C
Compared to the regular iPhone 15 models, the iPhone 15 Pro models have USB-C connectors that facilitate faster data transfers, providing an advantage over those models.
Ming-Chi Kuo, an analyst at Apple, claims that the iPhone 15 Pro variants will “at least” feature Thunderbolt 3 or USB 3.2. The update would enable faster file transfers for videos and additional file formats for iPhone 15 Pro devices.
While USB 3.2 enables speeds as high as 20Gb/s, USB 2.0 can only 480Mb/s of data transfer. Data transfer rates for the iPhone 15 Pro variants could reach 40Gb/s if Apple makes Thunderbolt 3 capability available.
Wi-Fi 6E
Wi-Fi 6E will only be available on the more expensive iPhone 15 Pro versions, according to leaked images and blueprints of the device’s Wi-Fi chip. Regular iPhone 15 variants will continue to employ Wi-Fi 6.
Streaming games will be quicker and more efficient, leading to a better online gaming experience. For instance, poker fans will find it easier and faster to learn poker hands in order to know their relative strengths and weaknesses. This can aid in making better strategy decisions when playing poker for real money.
Wi-Fi 6E has more capacity and quicker connection rates than Wi-Fi 6, decreased latency, and improved efficiency. Wi-Fi 6E adds an extra 1.2GHz of capacity to the 6GHz band, allowing it to handle the greater data rates required for virtual and augmented reality applications and providing whole-home gigabit service.
Frosted Glass Back
According to unverified Weibo speculation, Apple may finally return the frosted glass to the standard iPhone models with the iPhone 15. In most cases, frosted glass is only found in more expensive versions, while regular devices feature a glossy black finish.
If rumors are accurate, the back of the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Pro will be made of frosted glass. Other speculations include:
- Pro devices will have a RAM of 8GB.
- Wireless charging.
- Easier repairability.
- Camera update of 48-megapixel.
- iPhone 15 will be more expensive.
Final Thoughts
If the rumor is correct, the iPhone 15 will surely not disappoint. The upgraded features will be a plus, and they will be worth the price increase.
We can only wait for the September event where Apple introduces the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Pro, probably on September 12 or 13. If all goes according to plan, pre-orders will begin on September 15, and the release date will be September 22.
