Apple’s latest iPhones have landed, with awesome new features.
It’s another great September! As expected, Apple has just announced full details of the new iPhone 15 family.
The four new phones will be called iPhone 15, iPhone 15 Plus, iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max. They’re packed with exciting new tech including USB-C charging, camera upgrades, and a Dynamic Island, so let’s take a closer look.
Design and display
The iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus are available in black, blue, green, yellow and pink. The iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max come in four new colour versions - Natural Titanium, Blue Titanium, White Titanium, Black Titanium.
There are a couple of design changes worth mentioning. The first one that you’ll feel, rather than see, is a slight curve at the back. This makes the new iPhones even more comfortable to hold than older models.
Now for the most noticeable change. All of the new iPhone 15 models now have the Dynamic Island that first appeared on the iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max. This pill-shaped cut-out at the top of the display now gives you better visibility of activities and alerts, and can even change shape and size to display the information you need.
The iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Pro both have 6.1-inch displays, while the iPhone 15 Plus and iPhone 15 Pro Max boast larger 6.7-inch displays. As usual, all four iPhone 15 models will have super-sharp and vivid OLED screens. The iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max will also feature ProMotion 120Hz, a crisp refresh rate that makes everything onscreen look and feel incredibly smooth.
Advanced camera action
The iPhone 15 and 15 Plus models come with two cameras on the back, while the Pro and Pro Max models have three cameras.
There’s a new 48MP sensor onboard, capable of capturing impressive amount of detail. It also improves Night Mode, giving you sharper images in low light conditions. A new Smart HDR mode helps improve dynamic range too, so when you view your photos on your phone’s display, you’ll be able to see brighter highlights and deeper shadows.
The iPhone 15 Pro and 15 Pro Max get all of the new camera features above, plus a few more. The iPhone 15 Pro has a 3xTelephoto camera, and the iPhone 15 Pro Max has the longest optical zoom on any iPhone ever - 5x at 120 mm. These new features give you the power to shoot great close-ups, wildlife photos, and far-off action.
And for the first time on any iPhone, you can take portraits without having to switch to Portrait mode. Simply tap to focus on a shot and the iPhone automatically stores all the depth information you need to turn it into a stunning portrait when you edit it later on.
Serious power
Apple’s new A17 Pro chip will run the show on iPhone 15 Pro and 15 Ultra. This new and improved chip includes the biggest GPU redesign in Apple’s history, making it up to 20% faster, while improving performance and energy efficiency. Elsewhere, the new CPU is up to 10 percent faster, and the Neural Engine is now up to 2x faster while powering features like autocorrect.
Meanwhile, the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus are both powered by the same A16 Bionic chip as the iPhone 14 Pro. It’s a chip perfectly suited for advanced photography and intense gaming sessions, and delivers incredible performance without using too much power.
USB-C is here
USB-C charging is now on all iPhone 15 models. Apple says this offers convenient new ways to charge and stay connected while traveling. The USB‑C connector is a universally accepted standard for charging and transferring data, so you’ll be able to use the same cable to charge other Apple devices like MacBooks, iPads, and the updated AirPods Pro (2nd generation). You can also charge your AirPods or Apple Watch directly from any iPhone 15 with the USB‑C connector.
All the storage you need
iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus come with 128GB, 256GB or 512GB storage options. That’s plenty of room for lots of apps, games and files.
iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max also have a fourth storage option of 1TB (1000GB). That’s more than most laptops currently have, giving you enough space for around 250 HD movies.
Where can I order an iPhone 15?
You can now buy the iPhone 15, iPhone 15 Plus, iPhone 15 Pro or iPhone 15 Pro Max on a plan that gives you all the flexibility and control you need. You can enjoy ultra-fast 5G coverage, roll over unused data, cap your out-of-plan charges, and stay right on top of your expenses with the handy iD Mobile app.
