As it is the top model of iPhone 15 series, Apple offers the 6.7 inch stunning and bright display. This would be a super Retina XDR display with promotion technology and this time it will support the brightness up to 2500 nits.

The display will also support the Dynamic island feature which shrinks and expands as per the current situation. Using this, you can check the activities like alerts, current music track, AirDrop connection, uber ride trip, and directions from Maps.

A17 Bio Chip

Last year the iPhone 14 pro max was launched with A16 Chip, now Apple has renamed the iPhone 15 pro max as iPhone 15 Ultra and it will be packed with A17 chip which will make its overall performance faster than ever.

So among all iPhone, the iPhone 15 Ultra will be the faster!

As the phone is packed with A17 bio chip then you can expect a lot like fast boot time, fast loading of apps, and super fast connectivity.

Not only this, the A17 is built on 3nm TSMC’s architecture, so you can expect a long term backup!

Additionally, the A17 bio chip is capable to handle the high resolutions videos and photos. You can play heavy games on it and runs the latest iOS like iOS 17 smoothly.

iPhones are known for the camera quality, and like previous pro models you will get 3 camera setup (having 48MP main + 2x 12MP) on the rear side with 1 LED flash and LiDAR scanner and 1 camera of 12 MP on the front for selfies or video call.

This time Apple rear camera will have periscope lens, which will help you in the optical zoom. So you can easily click high quality photos from a large distance.

Instead of using a digital zoom (which is nothing but a cropped image), now with the help of optical zoom up to 6X you can easily click clear and sharp images in HEIF, JPEG and DNG image formats.

An example: So if you are on the top floor of the building and would like to click an object sitting on the car then you can do so with the new iPhone periscope camera setup.

This is the first time when an Apple iPhone will support the type c port instead of lighting port. So now you can charge it with Type C charger. And the same port you can use to connect 3.5mm supported headphones using type-c to 3.5mm convertor.

Earlier it was speculated that the new pro max iPhone 15 will have single button, but now it has been confirmed that you will get same (like previous gen) phone turn on/turn off button in the right side and volume rockers to adjust the volume in the left side. Just under the volume buttons, you will get a Sim tray option to insert 4G/5G SIM (only for non-USA countries).

• 1 unit of speaker and mic is placed at the bottom along with the charging port.
• 1 unit of speaker and mic is placed at the top just above the dynamic island.

The second mic is for the noise cancellation. So if you are traveling in bus, train where noise level is too high, then this secondary mic will cut the external noise and at the receiver point, a crystal clear voice will be delivered which will make communication easy.
