Apple iPhone 15/Pro and M3Mac Facts Review

On November 6th, IT Home reported that Apple's iPhone 15/Pro series, which lasted for over a year, came to an end on September 13th. The new generation M3 MacBookPro series officially debuted on October 31st.

IT Home recently compiled 734 explosive messages related to Apple's iPhone 15/Pro series, of which 492 are verifiable and 447 are correct, with an overall accuracy rate of 90%.

There are a total of 81 M3Mac related explosive messages, of which 56 are verifiable and 37 are correct, with an overall accuracy rate of 66%.

According to the classification of whistleblowers, Guo Mingyi, a familiar analyst with Tianfeng International from IT Home, is far ahead in the number of whistleblowers for the iPhone 15/Pro series, with a total of 124 pieces of information related to the iPhone 15/Pro series, mainly focusing on the iPhone supply chain and hardware parameters. Among them, the correct number of whistleblowers is 116, with a accuracy rate of 93.55%.

Bloomberg reporter Mark Gurman revealed a total of 79 pieces, covering all aspects of the new iPhone. The hardware parameters and release time were relatively accurate, with 76 correct pieces, with a accuracy rate of 96.2%.

Analyst Ross Young from the display screen revealed a total of 49 pieces, including the iPhone 15/Pro full series "Lingdong Island" perforated screen, and the standard version still does not support 120Hz/LTPO. Among them, the correct number of leaks was 45, with a accuracy rate of 91.84%.

In addition, the accuracy of explosive sources such as Aaron, Revegnus, and MacRumors has reached 100% (excluding explosives that cannot be verified at the moment), which has a high credibility in subsequent related new machine explosives.

Among all the explosive properties, the information about the appearance of the iPhone 15/Pro series and the switch to the USB-C interface is relatively accurate.

LeaksApplePro and ShrimpApplePro first mentioned the use of titanium alloy casing for the iPhone 15Pro series in 2022, and have since been confirmed by sources such as Mark Gurman.

LeaksApplePro, MarkGurman, and others were the first to predict a price increase for the Pro series of new machines, but it was not entirely correct because only the ProMax model ultimately saw a price increase.

The "solid-state volume button" exposed by Guo Minghui did not appear in the new device until April this year, when Guo Minghui stated that "due to the inability to overcome technical issues," Apple's iPhone 15Pro series models abandoned the solid-state button design. Mark Gurman stated that this button is destined to be adopted next year, probably iPhone 16Pro and iPhone 16ProMax.

Looking back at this year's new iPhone, Apple intentionally widened the configuration difference between iPhone 15/Plus and iPhone 15 Pro/Max, with many upgrade points only offering Pro/Max versions. Of course, the price also further widened, with the price difference between the lowest and highest configurations reaching 8000 yuan. It also raises concerns about whether the iPhone 16/Pro series will continue to widen this gap in the future.

In the Mac explosion, MarkGurman's total explosion number was significantly higher than others, with a total of 37 explosions, of which 28 were correct, with an accuracy rate of 75.68%. He accurately revealed the specifications of the M3 series chips, MacBookPro, iMac release time, and other information, but he overturned the situation in terms of Miao Kong accessories.

Mark Gurman believes that Apple will launch USB C interface mouse/keyboard and other accessories together at the M3Mac launch event, but in reality, Apple has not updated the accessories and still uses the Lightning interface.

There is not much information about Guo Mingyi's Mac related disclosures, and some of it is related to the shipment volume of Mac products. Therefore, there are only 4 verifiable disclosures, and the correct number of disclosures is 2.

DigiTimes received leaked information from Apple's supply chain, which is relatively accurate in terms of parameters, but seems unreliable in terms of release time. It mistakenly predicted the release time of M3MacBookPro to next year.

In addition, according to MarkGurman, Guo Mingyi, and others, Apple is expected to launch new products such as M3MacBookAir and 32-bit iMac next year, and everyone can wait and see.
