Recent speculation suggests that the exclusive upgrades will only be available on the highest-end iPhone 15 model, the iPhone 15 Pro Ultra (or iPhone 15 Pro Max), due out later this year.
To help Apple fans visualize, the designers of YouTube channel Technizo Concept have just released the iPhone 15 Ultra model, with special emphasis on the design upgrades of this super product.
Accordingly, the iPhone 15 Ultra is said to use a titanium frame material, with a seamlessly integrated volume button. Apple's use of a solid-state button, providing tactile feedback instead of a physical button, is still an open possibility. But according to analyst Ming Chi Kuo, the solid-state button may be moved to the iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max, launched next year, due to "unresolved technical issues".
The iPhone 15 Ultra is also said to have a much thinner screen bezel. In addition, the bezel will curve more towards the back.
The USB-C port seems like a given on the iPhone 15 models. The difference, however, is that the 40x faster USB 2.0 transfer speeds will be exclusive to the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Ultra (or iPhone 15 Pro Max) models, while the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus models will still be limited to Lightning/USB 2.0 speeds.
The new 3nm A17 Bionic chip on the iPhone 15 Ultra will also be a notable highlight. This is Apple's latest chip, manufactured on the 3nm process, improving the machine's performance much better. The iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus models are expected to be equipped with the A16 Bionic chip only.
In addition, the iPhone 15 Ultra will also be equipped with Wi-Fi 6E, enabling 6GHz connectivity, which helps improve wireless connection speeds, has lower latency, and less signal interference than standard Wi-Fi 6.
But the most notable and anticipated upgrade on the iPhone 15 Ultra is probably the periscope lens. According to analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, the iPhone 15 Ultra (or iPhone 15 Pro Max) will have a periscope lens, providing at least 6x optical zoom, compared to only 3x on the iPhone 14 Pro models. This is considered the "trump card" feature of the highest-end iPhone 15 model in the iPhone series to be launched this September.
