Eagerly awaiting the launch of the new iPhone 15 series, Apple fans expect it to happen in September. However, according to various reports and rumors, the company may face some challenges in scaling production and meeting demand for its flagship smartphones.
According to a report by The Express Tribune, citing sources from the supply chain, Apple is facing difficulties in producing the iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max models, which will feature slimmer bezels and USB-C ports instead of Lightning ports. The report claims that Apple is working on reducing the size of the bezels around the display, but this has caused some technical issues that have affected the yield rate of the OLED panels.
The report also suggests that Apple may launch the iPhone 15 series in September, but in limited quantities, especially for the Pro models. This could mean that customers may have to wait longer to get their hands on the new iPhones or pay a premium price for them.
iPhone 15 series to feature iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus models with Dynamic Island displays, eliminating the notch. Models with USB-C ports and A16 Bionic chips, based on A14 architecture powering iPhone 14 series.
Exclusive features in iPhone 15 Pro models set them apart from the rest of the lineup. According to various leaks and rumors, these features include:
Titanium frames: The iPhone 15 Pro models will reportedly have titanium frames instead of stainless steel or aluminum frames. Titanium is a strong and lightweight metal that can resist scratches and corrosion better than other metals.
iPhone 15 Pro models to feature 3nm A17 Bionic chips, promising faster and more efficient performance than A16. 3nm process packs more transistors, enhancing performance and reducing power consumption in Apple’s devices.
iPhone 15 Pro Max features a periscope zoom lens, enabling 10x optical zoom and 100x digital zoom. A significant upgrade from iPhone 14 Pro Max’s 2.5x optical zoom and 12x digital zoom. Periscope zoom lens bends light for longer focal length, enabling more magnification without added camera module thickness.
The iPhone 15 series is set to launch in September, but availability in large quantities may be limited initially. Apple may raise model prices due to increased production costs and supply constraints. Despite challenges, iPhone 15 series remains highly anticipated and is expected to be a popular smartphone launch this year.
