New iPhone 15 Pro reveals possible changes: titanium frame, bigger cameras, “haptic” buttons and more
The iPhone 15 series is still six months away and is expected to be released in September. However, courtesy of Ian Zelbo and 9to5Mac, renderings have been released that show what the iPhone 15 Pro could look like. Based on the renders, users can expect quite a few changes compared to the outgoing iPhone 14 Pro models, including a titanium body that could potentially replace the current steel structure, a larger camera bump, redesigned “haptic” buttons, and much smaller bezels. .
According to 9to5Google, the iPhone 15 Pro could feature a titanium body with slightly rounded edges and perhaps even a brushed finish to replace the current glossy finish, which is infamous for collecting fingerprints.
The cameras will also potentially get quite a bit of attention as they are the highlight of the marketing material, with a much larger camera bump expanding on the already large camera module that the iPhone 14 Pro models have. Also, while it may sound strange, the smaller iPhone 15 Pro is expected to have a bigger camera bump compared to the iPhone 15 Pro Max. 9to5Mac points out that this is likely due to the periscope zoom that could be reserved for the iPhone 15 Pro Max. Overall, all the rumors point to the new iPhone 15 Pro models getting even better camera sensors.
As previously reported, the iPhone 15 Pro may finally switch to USB-C and feature solid-state haptic volume and mute buttons. 9to5Mac says that “the buttons are replaced by two new haptic motors dedicated specifically to mimicking a button press.”
Finally, in terms of design and aesthetics, the new iPhone 15 Pro models could get an all-new Deep Red color that could replace the Deep Purple from the current lineup, and the phones could also have slimmer bezels — coming in at just 1.55mm. If the renders turn out to be correct, we can expect it to mark the first time Apple is moving away from the mute switch it’s always offered.
