According to recent information obtained, the upcoming iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max models are likely to be more expensive than their predecessors, contrary to earlier expectations. The previous rumors of providing higher base storage for the new iPhones to offset the price increase seem to be incorrect.
The obtained information suggests that the iPhone 15 Pro will be available in four storage configurations: 128GB, 256GB, 512GB, and 1TB, similar to last year’s models. This contradicts the rumors that had suggested a starting storage capacity of 256GB, with a possible introduction of a new 2TB variant.
Additionally, Apple reportedly tested both 6GB and 8GB RAM configurations for the iPhone 15 Pro but there is no confirmation regarding which configuration was finalized. However, a recent report indicated that the Pro models will come with 8GB of RAM, an upgrade from the 6GB in the iPhone 14 Pro.
The Pro models are expected to feature the new 3nm A17 Bionic chip and a titanium frame, potentially making them lighter and increasing their chances of being among the best phones of 2023. Furthermore, the iPhone 15 Pro Max might include a periscope zoom camera with up to 6x optical zoom. The entire lineup is anticipated to offer a USB-C port, Dynamic Island, and a 48MP primary camera.
Overall, while the price increase for the iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max is confirmed, the base storage capacities are expected to remain the same as last year’s models. The inclusion of advanced features and technologies in the upcoming iPhones suggests that Apple aims to provide an enhanced user experience.
