iPhone 15 Pro renders: Is this the next iPhone’s final design? | News 4 Social
Since last year, we’re hearing reports of dramatic changes that Apple plans for the iPhone 15 lineup. We can only imagine how these will look like in the actual unit. But for the first time, alleged renders of the iPhone 15 Pro have been leaked. So, how different will the next-gen iPhone be from the iPhone 14?
Case makers usually get the first look for upcoming devices, as they are needed to design and plan before any device is launched. A set of purported iPhone 15 Pro computer-generated renders that a Chinese case maker obtained were shared to 9to5Mac. The images have been visualized by 3D artist Ian Zelbo.
Considering that making a case requires accurate dimensions and positioning of ports and provisions of the device, the images presented could somehow depict the final design of the iPhone 15 Pro. Of course, these will still depend on the authenticity of these materials in the end.
iPhone 15 Pro: Thinner bezels, new port, and fatter camera lens
Starting at the sides, the edges are now more rounded that meet the glass panel. The rear panel suggests having curved edges too, which align with earlier reports. As regards the camera, you can easily tell that Apple is sticking to the same square island with triple camera setup, except for a thicker and fatter lens housing. Perhaps the most notable change is the USB-C port at the bottom that is sandwiched by speaker holes.
The buttons seem to be thinner while placements are apparently unchanged including the mute switch and SIM tray access. However, it is hard to determine if the physical buttons are entirely replaced by the rumored solid-state components.
Going to the front, the bezels of the iPhone 15 Pro are noticeably thinner compared to the iPhone 14 Pro (review). The overall dimension of Apple’s iPhone 15 Pro has also shrunk, giving a slightly shorter and narrower frontal view. This confirms the 6.1-inch display will be kept. Even so, the Dynamic Island appears with no size difference as to the previous model.
The photos shown are referred to the smaller iPhone 15 Pro. But it’s possible that the design will be shared with the iPhone 15 Pro (or Ultra) and the vanilla iPhone 15 models. Do you prefer the new iPhone design? Let us hear your thoughts in the comment section.
