iPhone 15 Release Date
- Updated: September 24, 2023 | Published: June 2, 2023
As we move further into 2023, the tech world is buzzing with anticipation for Apple’s next big release – the iPhone 15. While the official release date is yet to be confirmed, we can make an educated guess based on Apple’s previous release patterns.
The company typically unveils its new iPhones in the first or second week of September, with the devices going on sale a week or so later.
Therefore, we can expect the iPhone 15 to be launched around September 5 or 12, 2023.
Update: Apple unveiled the iPhone 15 models at their Wonderlust event on September 12. Pre-orders begin on Apple’s website at 5:00 a.m. PDT on Friday, September 15, and they’ll be available in stores from September 22.
A Glimpse into the Future: What to Expect from the iPhone 15
Design and Display
The iPhone 15 is expected to inherit the Dynamic Island, a feature previously exclusive to the Pro models. This screen cutout should give the phone a more premium feel. The device is also likely to retain the 6.1-inch Super XDR OLED display with a 2532 x 1170 pixel resolution, similar to the iPhone 14.
In terms of design, rumors suggest that all four iPhone 15 models will feature slightly curved edges, a departure from the straight-sided aesthetic of the iPhone 14. The iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus are also expected to sport a new camera bump.
One of the most significant design changes could be the switch from the Lightning port to a USB-C charging port. This move is in line with the EU’s directive for Apple to adopt USB-C charging ports for iPhones from 2024.
Camera and Battery
The iPhone 15 is expected to feature a dual-sensor camera setup, with the main sensor being a 48MP one, a significant upgrade from the 12MP main sensor used by the iPhone 14.
However, the Pro models are expected to feature even more advanced camera systems, possibly including periscope cameras and the largest iPhone camera sensors ever.
As for the battery, the iPhone 15 is likely to have a similar capacity to the iPhone 14, which stands at 3,279mAh. There are also rumors of the addition of reverse wireless charging, allowing the iPhone 15 to wirelessly charge other Apple devices.
Specs and Features
The iPhone 15 is expected to use the A16 Bionic chipset, which should make the device feel faster than the iPhone 14. However, the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Ultra are likely to be powered by the even more advanced A17 Bionic chipset.
The iPhone 15 is also expected to feature the Snapdragon X70 5G modem, offering improved performance over the Snapdragon X65 in the iPhone 14. There are also rumors that the Pro models might support Wi-Fi 6E and offer faster data transfer speeds via the USB-C port.
Pricing
While the exact pricing for the iPhone 15 is yet to be confirmed, we can make an educated guess based on the launch prices of the iPhone 14.
The iPhone 14 started at $799 for the 128GB model, and it’s likely that the iPhone 15 will follow suit.
However, with other manufacturers opting to forgo 128GB storage options for their 2023 flagships, the iPhone 15 could start at $899 for the 256GB model.
While we wait for the official announcement, the iPhone 15 is shaping up to be a significant upgrade over its predecessor, with improvements in design, display, camera, and performance.
As always, Apple seems to be pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in a smartphone, and we can’t wait to see what the iPhone 15 has in store.
