Apple iPhone 15 Pro Models Tipped To Cost 20 Per Cent More
The iPhone 15 Pro Max, the purported top-of-the-line flagship smartphone from Apple this year is set to cost up to 20 per cent more.
With the Apple iPhone 15 lineup expected to debut in the second half of the year, a new report says that the iPhone 15 Pro Max, the purported top-of-the-line flagship smartphone from Apple this year is set to cost up to 20 per cent more. According to a tipster named Revegnus, the base iPhone 15 may see a hike of 12 per cent in price while the iPhone 15 Pro model will see around a 20 per cent hike.
According to reports, Apple may use A17 Bionic chipset in the iPhone 15 Pro models that will be fabricated on TSMC's 3nm process. Tawian's TSMC, however, is struggling with the production of the processor, which could possibly increase the prices of the upcoming iPhone models.
Meanwhile, the upcoming iPhone 15 Pro may ditch the solid-state volume rockers with haptic feedback which would have been similar to the home button in the old iPhone 7, a report suggested earlier this month.
Apple is likely to launch the new iPhone 15 line later this year and may not include the solid-state buttons on the iPhone 15 Pro due to manufacturing challenges, according to Jeff Pu, Haitong Tech Analyst, as reported by MacRumors.
Pu was quoted as saying by the publication that sources familiar with Apple’s supply chain mentioned that Apple may ditch the sold-state buttons in favour of the classic volume button design on the iPhone 15 Pro since the new solution would have a much more complex design. According to the analyst, the new buttons would require three new haptics engines inside the iPhone.
the Apple iPhone 15 Plus is likely to launch later this year with the Dynamic Island that was missing in last year's iPhone 14 Plus.
The iPhone 15 series is likely to sport the same display size as the iPhone 14 series. However, the iPhone 15 Pro Max model may bear the "Ultra" moniker; Samsung also uses the Ultra moniker for its super-premium flagship Galaxy S models.
