Apple will most likely announce the official iPhone 15 lineup, including the iPhone 15 Pro, in September of 2023. There are some potentially interesting upgrades speculated for the iPhone 15 Pro based on rumors and analyst predictions.
Here are some additional details regarding the potential iPhone 15 Pro and leaks about its upcoming features:
Processor – The iPhone 15 Pro is expected to come with Apple’s next-generation A17 chip, which will likely offer improved performance and power efficiency over the current A16 chip in the iPhone 14 Pro. However, there are no specific details yet on what improvements the A17 may bring.
RAM – Some rumors suggest Apple may increase the base RAM on the iPhone 15 Pro from 6GB to 8GB. This could help with multitasking and handling more intensive tasks. However, this has not been reliably confirmed.
Camera upgrades – There are rumors that the iPhone 15 Pro may feature a 48MP main camera sensor, up from the current 12MP sensor. However, it’s unclear if that translates to actual improved photo quality given Apple’s software image processing.
Satellite connectivity – There have been rumors that Apple may finally offer satellite connectivity on the iPhone 15 models as an emergency feature. But again, no reliable leaks have confirmed this.
USB-C – Due to the new EU regulations, it is very likely the iPhone 15 lineup will switch to USB-C ports from the current Lightning ports. But no other details have leaked about the specifics of this change.
Design – Most reports suggest the iPhone 15 Pro models will feature a similar overall design to the iPhone 14 Pro, just with possible thickness changes to accommodate new camera features. But reliable design leaks have not yet emerged.
In any case, the iPhone 15 Pro lineup is shaping up to be significant upgrades with a potential major redesign, faster chips, improved cameras, and more innovative features.
