While Apple’s iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Pro were just recently released, there are plenty of rumors concerning the next version: the iPhone 15. Despite the fact that we don’t expect these devices to be available until fall 2023, the rumor mill doesn’t cease to turn.
Remember, however, that everything we know right now is just speculation based on rumors and other media reports – nothing is finalized yet, and it probably won’t be until close to September 2023 when new iPhones are typically introduced. These rumors indicate Apple’s likely direction for the next iPhone, even if you are (rightly) skeptical of some of them. If you are here to learn about the expected iPhone 15 release date, keep reading to learn in detail.
iPhone 15 Release Date
The iPhone-15 rumor is the most certain of the early iPhone 15 rumors. A once-in-a-generation pandemic that disrupted tech supply chains and forced Apple to stay at home necessitated Apple’s only announcement outside of September in the last decade, which is October 2020.
Apple typically releases its new iPhones in September every year, so the iPhone 15 could be released in September 2023. It will take Apple a while to announce a specific date. It is still possible that the iPhone15 will be released on September 12, 2023, according to sources.
As a result, the iPhone-15 will likely be released in September 2023. In the usual case, Apple announces its phones about ten days before they’re released, and preorders open a week before launch.

Design and Size
There may not be much difference between iPhone 15 and iPhone 14. Those expecting a radical redesign might be disappointed. Apple seems to be expanding its Dynamic Island pill-and-hole cutout to all iPhone 15 models, rather than just the iPhone 14 Pro. In that case, the iPhone 15 will be the first iPhone lineup to have no notches at all.
According to sources, there will be four iPhone15 models: 6.1-inch iPhone 15, 6.7-inch iPhone 15 Plus, 6.1-inch iPhone 15 Pro, and 6.7-inch iPhone 15 Pro Max (or Ultra).
iPhone 15 Processor
Apple is expected to use the same A16 chip in the standard iPhone 15 as it does in the iPhone 14 Pro, and it is likely that the upgraded A17 chip will only be available on the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max. With the iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Pro lineup, Apple seems to be creating a new way to differentiate between standard and pro iPhone models.
It is rumored that TSMC, the longtime supplier of iPhone chips, will use a 3nm process for the A17. This would reduce the heat generated during use and reduce the power consumption of the A17. In addition to 15% faster speeds and 30% more power savings over the 5nm chip, the 3nm A17 chip will also be 15% smaller than its predecessor.
iPhone 15 Camera Quality
It is known that Apple has been working on periscope lenses for its iPhone15 Pro Max model, which may be the only version with this technology.
The optic zoom with a periscope lens would be higher than what is currently offered, for example, 5x or 10x.
Previous reports indicated that the iPhone15 would come with an 8P camera, which refers to how many elements there are in the lens. An additional element in the lens may reduce the amount of distortion in the final image.
USB-C
As part of the EU mandate, most portable electronics, including smartphones, have USB-C ports. (Apple Watches, which charge wirelessly, do not need USB-C ports). Over time, Apple will have to transition several products to USB-C, and instead of making unique European versions, it will likely just make all products USB-C, as we saw with the 10th-generation iPad. SO Apple is expected to include a USB-C port on all iPhone 15 models.
iPhone 15 Price
A surprising fact is that the iPhone 14 Pro lineup has the same price as the iPhone 13 lineup, despite the addition of new features. However, there is a possibility for the prices in the next iteration to get hiked, depending on the supply chain and the conditions of available materials. Regardless, we do not expect Apple to raise the iPhone15’s pricing anytime soon. Here are some possible iPhone 15 prices in 2023:
Model Name | Price in US Dollar | Price in INR |
iPhone 15 | $799 | INR 65,900 |
iPhone 15 Plus | $899 | INR 74,149 |
iPhone 15 Pro | $999 | INR 82,397 |
iPhone 15 Pro Max | $1099 | INR 90,644 |
The rupee value is based on the current value of the US dollar against the Indian rupee. Also, import taxes and duties imposed on electronic goods that are brought into the country are not taken into account. It is certain that pricing will change as we approach September of next year.
Performance, Dual Camera & Storage
A 14-core chipset powers the iPhone15’s standard model, backed by 8GB RAM and 256GB storage, but no card slot is included to expand storage. In terms of imaging, the iPhone15 has a dual rear camera with a primary 12MP sensor and an ultrawide 12MP sensor. It runs iOS 15 and is equipped with an Apple GPU. With Face ID and a 12MP front-facing camera, the phone can take selfies.
Battery, Connectivity & Fast Charging
With the Apple iPhone 15, you get a long-lasting battery that holds a capacity of 4200mAh. Besides wired fast charging through the lightning port, there is also wireless charging available. This phone is equipped with 5G, Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac/6, Bluetooth 5.2, NFC, and GPS with GLONASS + QZSS for connectivity.
This iPhone15 lineup has the potential to revolutionize the smartphone industry and Apple as well. With their most recent releases, the company has been on a roll. Additionally, there are numerous upgrades to the cameras, operating systems, and processors to look forward to. It is also possible that some Android users could convert to Apple users because some changes, such as the USB-C port, have been long overdue. I’ll keep you up-to-date as we learn more about the Apple iPhone15 as the story unfolds.
