We’ll likely see Apple unveiling the iPhone 15 series in September. BGR gathered every rumor we heard about this upcoming phone.
The iPhone 15 series could be available less than two months from now. As the iPhone 14 nears its end-cycle, rumors about the next generation continue to ramp up. BGR gathered the most important reports about the iPhone 15 models. Here’s what you need to know.Leaks and CADs of the iPhone 15 models
Over February, we’re able to get a first look at the upcoming iPhone models. 9to5Mac got its hands on a 3D render of what to expect from the Pro iPhone, revealing thinner bezels, rounded edges, and, of course, a USB-C port instead of Lightning.
MacRumors, on the other hand, received a blurry image of what seems to be an actual iPhone 15 model. This regular version, as rumored, features Dynamic Island and a USB-C port as well.
During the first months of 2023, the iPhone 15 Pro was believed to feature unified solid buttons with haptic feedback. Then, analyst Ming-Chi Kuo and Bloomberg‘s Mark Gurman said Apple had scrapped these plans for 2023 due to technical difficulties. With that in mind, the Cupertino firm would maintain the buttons as they are, although the mute switch could turn into an Action Button, just like with the Apple Watch Ultra.

According to display analyst Ross Young, Apple will bring the Dynamic Island to all iPhone 15 models. That said, it doesn’t mean all versions will have the Always-On display technology or ProMotion. Young believes these two features will keep exclusive to the iPhone 15 Pro series. Another change is that the display of the regular models will slightly increase for 6.12″ and 6.69″, respectively.
According to analysts, adding Dynamic Island to the regular models will help Apple boost sales, as the standard iPhone 14 versions are selling worse than their predecessors.
About its finish, a rumor says the regular iPhone 15 models will feature a glass and aluminum finish, the Pro version glass and stainless steel, and the Pro Max – or Ultra – model will get a glass and titanium variant.
Twitter user ShrimpApplePro believes the Pro models will have thinner bezels and curved edges, similar to recent iterations of the Apple Watch. Another leaker says the iPhone 15 Pro Max will have the thinner bezels ever in a smartphone, as it will be just 1.55mm thin.
iPhone 15 colors
9to5Mac heard from its sources that Apple is testing a very dark red color for the upcoming iPhone 15 Pro models. In addition, the publication says Apple is also testing light blue and pink for the upcoming regular iPhone 15 models. That said, if the company follows the trend, we could see these two colors alongside Midnight, Starlight, and (PRODUCT)RED.
In addition to this rumor, a leaker who accurately reported that Apple would release a yellow iPhone 14 model said the company is testing a cyan color for the regular iPhone 15 that would look similar to the green iPhone 12. Now, it seems it could be closer to mint green.
Here’s how the iPhone 15 series could look color-wise:
iPhone 15 colors:
Light Blue;
Pink;
Cyan or mint green;
Midnight;
Starlight;
(PRODUCT)RED.
