Apples Latest Release The iPhone 15 Maintains Affordable Pricing

The iPhone 15 series has arrived, bringing along a plethora of exciting changes and fresh features.

 

The headline news is crystal clear: the iPhone 15 marks one of the most significant upgrades in recent iPhone history. There's plenty to be thrilled about, so let's jump right into the details.

 

A Quick Look at the iPhone 15 Series

 

Apple has introduced four new iPhone 15 models, following the playbook of the iPhone 14 and previous iterations.

 

To kick things off, we have the standard iPhone 15, followed by the iPhone 15 Plus, and then the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max. All of them start at the same prices and offer identical storage options, with the exception of the iPhone 15 Pro Max, which now begins at a slightly higher price point of $1,200 but boasts a generous 256GB of storage in its base version. The rest of the lineup starts with a solid 128GB of storage as the baseline.

 

Among these four models, two fall into the compact-ish category with 6.1-inch screens (namely, the iPhone 15 and the 15 Pro), while the other two belong to the larger category (the Plus and the Pro Max) with expansive 6.7-inch displays.

 

The most budget-friendly of the new arrivals is the iPhone 15, starting at $800 and retaining a 6.1-inch display along with a pair of rear cameras. Next in line, at a $900 starting price, is the 6.7-inch iPhone 15 Plus, which offers a beefier battery but sticks with just two cameras.

 

And then, we have the premium Pro models, which introduce new features to set them apart even further from their non-Pro counterparts. Both the iPhone 15 Pro and 15 Pro Max feature the cutting-edge A17 Pro chip, bringing a slew of enhancements to the table. The smaller 6.1-inch iPhone 15 Pro retains the familiar triple rear camera setup, while the larger iPhone 15 Pro Max stands out as the first iPhone ever to sport a folded camera with a whopping 5X native zoom level, a significant improvement over the current 3X zoom.

 

Now, let's sum up the ten most notable new features of the iPhone 15:

 

1. USB-C port replaces Lightning.
   
   
2. All four models feature Dynamic Island.
   
   
3. iPhone 15 and 15 Plus are powered by the older A16 chip.
   
   
4. iPhone 15 Pro and 15 Pro Max run on the newer A17 chip.
   
   
5. Pro models incorporate titanium instead of stainless steel, reducing weight.
