And finally, at the Steve Jobs Theater in Cupertino, Apple yesterday announced the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus, featuring an industry-first color-infused back glass with a stunning, textured matte finish, and a new contoured edge on the aluminum enclosure.
Speaking at the launch event, Kaiann Drance, Apple’s vice president of Worldwide iPhone Product Marketing, said with innovative camera technologies that spark creativity, the user-friendly Dynamic Island, and services like Roadside Assistance via satellite that improve users’ lives, the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus mark a significant step forward.
“We’re also pushing the power of computational photography to new levels this year with a 48MP Main camera featuring a new 24MP default for super-high-resolution photos, a new 2x Telephoto option, and next-generation portraits.”
Both models are a significant improvement over previous models thanks to the A16 Bionic processor, a USB-C port, Precision Finding for Find My Friends, and market-leading durability features. Now, let’s take a look at the full specifications of the new iPhone lineup.
