iPhone 15 / Plus, iPhone 15 Pro / Max, iPhone 15 Ultra : le point sur les rumeurs (2023)
In a little over six months from now, we should discover the 2023 iPhones planned by Apple. Between iPhone 15, iPhone 15 Plus, iPhone 15 Ultra or iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max: here's everything we've heard about so far.
1 – The screen
As in 2022 with the four iPhone 14s, Apple should offer a quartet of iPhone 15s. An iPhone 15 Pro Max and a large iPhone 15 Plus as well as the iPhone 15 Pro and the “classic” iPhone 15, with a little more than 6 inches at the withers
But you should know that the screens of the future iPhones of 2023 should be a bit wider than those of the iPhone 14. We are only talking here about a few tenths of an inch at most, so the change will not necessarily be visible at first glance. eye. On the other hand, it is indeed on the brightness side that users of the iPhone 15 Pro Max could be surprised: the mobile is likely to reach two thousand five hundred nits of maximum power. Enough to allow use in full sun, without problem. Unless this is for the iPhone 15 Ultra? We will come back to this below, but it would not be surprising given its nomenclature, since the Apple Watch Ultra is precisely the mistress of its range for mountaineers or divers, who are the most exposed to the rays.
As a bonus, other rumors have announced that the iPhone 15 could be twice as resistant, thanks to a stronger glass designed by Corning (the Victus 2). The manufacturer's Gorilla Glass windows have already been fitted to the front of Apple mobiles for many years, to fight against scratches and shocks. The touch screen, for its part, is entrusted in particular to subcontractors Samsung, BOE Electronics and LG Display. Brands whose reputation is well established, and which have in any case already been seen on board previous models.
2 – Dynamic Island for everyone
Not to stray too far from the subject, we also learned that Apple would finally offer its Dynamic Island to all owners of high-end iPhones released at the end of 2023. Of course, here too, this information must be considered with some caution. , because the Cupertino giant has not officially confirmed anything. But multiple patents and leaks tend to validate the case, which therefore seems more and more likely. Eventually, we could even be entitled to a collection of smartphones with camera and Face ID under the screen, but not before 2027.
3 – Improved performance on iPhone 15 Pro
Now let's move on to performance. In all likelihood, the iPhone 15 Plus and the “classic” iPhone 15 will be equipped with the same chip as the iPhone 14 Pro and the iPhone 14 Pro Max, namely the A16 Bionic chip, already very efficient today and which will probably not be not out of fashion by then. With, probably, the same amount of RAM under the hood. But for the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max (or iPhone 15 Ultra, as you like), Apple would have provided a more efficient motherboard, which we imagine probably called the A17 Bionic chip. Expect +20 or +30% for benchmark results, but no more. On the other hand, the premium models would finally go to 8 GB of RAM, years after the competition.
With this, analysts are betting on the arrival of Wi-Fi 6E to offer a better connection at home, as for the MacBook Pro and the most recent iPads. As for 5G, the clues still point to a modem designed by Qualcomm, as before.
