The price and parameters of iPhone 15 have been exposed, which may be the largest upgraded Apple phone in recent years

The release of the iPhone 15 series is getting closer and closer. Currently, there is a wealth of information on the parameters, and there is finally news on the price. According to Wedbush's renowned analyst Dan Ives in a report, the iPhone 15 series released this year will be more expensive than last year's iPhone 14 series.

Ives has always had a high accuracy in predicting iPhone prices. For example, last year he accurately predicted that iPhones would increase their prices in some countries or regions, citing changes in the US dollar exchange rate.

The reason for predicting the price increase of the iPhone 15 series this time is the high market demand. Aives believes that there are currently approximately 250 million iPhones that have been in use for more than four years, and these users may switch to new devices this year. At the same time, he also predicted a wave of iPhone 15 shipments, which are expected to reach 235 million to 240 million units this year.

This is not the first time there have been rumors of an increase in the price of the iPhone 15 series. Previously, it was revealed that due to the increase in production costs of the iPhone 15/Pro by about 12% and about 20% respectively, Apple may raise the price of this new generation of phones.

So overall, the possibility of price increases for the iPhone 15 series this year seems a bit high. If the price really increases, according to Apple's usual pricing method, it is speculated that the basic model may increase by around $50, while the Pro model is about $100, so the "Super Cup" on the Chinese bank's side directly reaches the 10000 yuan level. Of course, this is just speculation, I still hope not to increase the price!

Simply organize the parameter information again. According to relevant sources, the basic iPhone 15 model will be replaced with a brand new mold this time, featuring a smart island design for the exterior and an optimized feel.

The Pro version, on the other hand, further narrows the screen border on the basis of the previous generation. From the rendered image, it can be seen that the screen ratio has significantly increased. In addition, the middle frame will also be replaced with the same titanium material as the AppleWatch Ultra, which has the advantage of stronger scratch resistance but may not have the same texture as stainless steel.

In terms of hardware, the basic iPhone 15 will be equipped with an A16 chip, 6GB of memory, and Type-C interface. The iPhone 15 Pro is equipped with a brand new A17 chip, which will significantly improve power consumption. Upgrade the memory to 8GB, and the C port supports high-speed transmission.

In addition, this generation of Pro models will also bring the long-awaited periscope telephoto lens. However, based on current trends, it is possible that only the iPhone 15 ProMax can be used, and is expected to support 6x optical zoom. The small Pro remains unchanged, with a 3x optical zoom.

Overall, the iPhone 15 series may not be considered a major iteration, but detailed adjustments or upgrades should be considered the most in recent years. But the price increase is still a bit disappointing. So if the iPhone 15 series really wants to increase in price, what is the highest price you can accept?
