Details on iPhone 15 lineup
The iPhone 15, iPhone 15 Plus, and potentially the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Ultra will be released.There may be considerable changes, including the adoption of USB-C connectivity and the standardization of the dynamic Island feature.
The iPhone 15 models are expected to have a 48 MP camera sensor and the A16 chip, while the Pro models may feature the A17 Bionic chip.The lack of a high refresh rate display may disappoint some, but the iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max are expected to have lower bezels, tougher frames, and ultra-fast charging.
The standout feature of the iPhone 15 Pro Max could be a periscope telephoto camera with a 6X optical zoom, surpassing its predecessor’s 3X magnification.
“The iPhone 15 lineup will include the iPhone 15, iPhone 15 Plus, and potentially the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Ultra. It’s believed that these new iPhones would result in considerable changes. All iPhones may acquire USB-C connectivity in response to European Union requirements. The dynamic Island feature, first seen on the iPhone 14 Pro, may become a standard feature on all iPhone 15 models. Furthermore, we expect a 48 MP camera sensor and the A16 chip in ordinary models, with the A17 Bionic chip in Pro models. However, given the competition’s 90 Hertz panels, the lack of a high refresh rate display may frustrate some. But with lower bezels, tougher frames, and ultra-fast charging, the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max could steal the show. The iPhone 15 Pro Max is rumored to have a periscope telephoto camera with a 6X optical zoom, which outperforms its predecessor’s 3X magnification.”

Likely exclusions and iPad improvements
- iPad improvements, if any, may be announced in the first several months of the year or during an October event alongside MacBooks.
- While an iPad Mini upgrade is feasible, it is not the most likely option at this event.
“Previous trends indicate that Apple prefers to give larger-screen devices their own dedicated stage. So, if there are any iPad improvements, they may arrive in the first several months of the year or during an October event alongside MacBooks. While an iPad Mini upgrade is feasible, it is not the most likely option at this event.”
“While surprise announcements are always possible, previous trends indicate that Apple prefers to give larger-screen devices their own dedicated stage. So, if there are any iPad improvements, they may arrive in the first several months of the year or during an October event alongside MacBooks.”
Possible new AirPods at the event
Initially, it was expected that the event would introduce a new version of AirPods Pro with a USBC port. However, it now seems more likely that there will be a new pair of AirPods Max or AirPods 3.This speculation is based on the fact that there will be a separate briefing about new AirPods, and it seems unlikely that Apple would devote significant time to discussing just a USBC port.
“That leads me to believe that we could be seeing some new AirPods Max…I wouldn’t be shocked if we saw a new version of this or maybe AirPods 3 with USBC at the event.”
