iPhone 15 Plus: news, technical specifications, price and official launch
Next we go on to mention all the new features that have been incorporated into the iPhone 15 Plus, during a special event that has been most entertaining and with Tim Cook totally excited about the arrival of his new toys on the market.
Design
Apple’s iPhone 15 Plus has landed on the presentation stage at Apple Park with a groundbreaking design. It is the first time in history that a model of the “Plus” nomenclature incorporates a Dynamic Island and, oh, it has arrived just where angels should fall. It has a very polished and aesthetically very visual design.
As we mentioned previously, the iPhone 15 Plus is a gigantic version of the iPhone 15 with a front with ultra-thin bezels**, flat edges and a diagonal of 6.7 inches. It has dimensions of 16.09 x 7.78 x 0.78 cm. The iPhone 15 Plus is available in the following colors:
- Space black.
- Light yellow.
- Light Blue.
- Light green.
- Light pink.
In addition, the new range of iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus smartphones could be accompanied in the future by colored USB-C cables so that each user can combine them to their liking, according to rumors.
On the other hand, it is worth mentioning that the iPhone 15 Plus is manufactured with a aluminum chassis while the iPhone 15 Pro versions will come with titanium to offer greater resistance to shocks. Without a doubt, a very interesting point to keep in mind if you plan to update your device. However, aluminum provides a brighter shine than titanium to the base models, which gives a lot of play with the new pastel shades that Apple has chosen.
Processor
Apple has introduced a chip A16 Bionic most advanced on your iPhone 15 and your iPhone 15 Plus. Therefore, the new batch of base phones will not have as high a performance as in the case of the iPhone 15 Pro models, which will implement a processor A17 Bionic totaly new. Now, it is imperative to indicate that this A16 Bionic chip will be a renewed version of the homonymous chip present in iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max.
Be that as it may, the power jump will not be that big between the new processors and the previous generation chips, given that Apple has taken a very concise approach in ostensibly improving its energy efficiency rather than its performance. Additionally, the new processors designed by Apple for the iPhone 15 Plus will be accompanied by 6GB RAM.
Screen
One of the new features of the iPhone 15 Plus that has the most differences with respect to the iPhone 15. Its colossal screen will measure 6.7 inches and will have ProMotion technology, giving the phone a refresh rate of 60Hz.
The iPhone 15 Plus screen has a resolution of 2,796 by 1,290 pixels. It includes Super Retina XDR technology and, of course, True Tone functionality.
Cameras
The iPhone 15 has already been presented in the September keynote
Both the iPhone 15 and the iPhone 15 Plus will land on the market with a dual camera module whose lenses – main and ultra wide angle – will have 48 megapixels just as it has been rumored for months.
USB-C port
It seems that Apple has finally given in and has incorporated a USB-C connection on all its iPhone 15 models, including the iPhone 15 Plus. The European Union ruled that the new regulations will force all manufacturers to use a single universal port, with the USB-C port being the best positioned for versatility, compatibility and efficiency.
The USB-C port of the iPhone 15 Plus will replace the iconic Lightning USB port that has always been there present. What will this change mean? Basically, iPhone 15 users will be able to connect many more peripherals to their devices. But also, data transfer speed and upload speed will be much higher.
