The upcoming Apple iPhone 15 Pro models are likely to come with a minimum storage of 256GB, says a new leak from China. The maximum storage for the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max models would go up to 2TB, the leak has added. According to a supplier, the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max are confirmed to be available with double the maximum storage capacity as last year's iPhone 14 Pro models, as spotted by news aggregator account "yeux1122" on the Korean Naver blog.

Moreover, according to publication MacRumors, a Weibo account made the same claim over the weekend and said that the iPhone 15 Pro models would start at a minimum of 256GB memory instead of the current base 128GB capacity of iPhone 14 Pro models.

We are weeks away from the launch of the iPhone 15 lineup. The series could be launched next month, carrying forward Apple's tradition to launch a new iPhone line in September. The launch of the iPhone 15 series is said to be held on either September 12 or September 13 and the tech giant may unveil four new iPhone models this year.

According to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, as spotted by MacRumors, the iPhone 15 series launch would take place on either of the days. The iPhone 15 series would become available for purchase a week later, on September 22.

Some reports earlier said that the Apple iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max models may be delayed due to a "severe crunch" in the wake of production woes with displays. A report in The Information said, citing two sources having direct knowledge of the problem, that the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max models could face severe supply shortages in September as Apple is making changes to the display.

However, another report clarified that the panels for the iPhone 15 Pro models are no longer in shortage as South Korean major LG Display has resolved the display woes which indicates that the iPhone 15 Pro line would not get delayed this year.

Cupertino-based Apple is mulling to significantly reduce the size of the bezels around the display this year and that has caused production woes. According to a report by Korean publication The Elec, the tech giant is working towards introducing a "bezel-less" display and it has asked its display partners Samsung and LG Display to make flat OLED screens with no bezels.
