One of the big changes to the iPhone compared to the previous generation 14 is the end of stainless steel and the arrival of titanium, the construction material with which the Apple Watch Ultra are made. Well, its arrival on the iPhone is more important than we think, because it can drastically change the perception and the way we use the iPhone on a daily basis. Keep reading as we tell it all.
As you already know, this year I went from my iPhone X to my iPhone 14 Pro, a change that has been noticed in practically everything. However, one of the changes that I noticed the most was the device weightSince it could become heavy if you were lying on the couch with it or in your pocket due to its weight. Now, it seems that Apple has taken action on the matter and the iPhone 15 will be lighter in weight.
We will all be delighted with this change
Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman recently published in his Power On newsletter that one of the big changes between the iPhone 14 Pro Max and the iPhone 15 Pro Max will be the weight reductionmaking it lighter to carry and more comfortable when we have it in our pocket or bag.
According to this renowned analyst, the iPhone 15 Pro will be 18 grams lighter than iPhone 14 Pro, although it will be a little thicker, but that will be offset by being a little narrower and shorter. Specifically, these are the dimensions:
- Thickness: 8.25mm (up to 7.85mm)
- Weight: 188 grams (instead of 206 grams)
- Broad: 70.6mm (down from 71.5mm)
- Length: 146.6mm (down from 147.5mm)
With respect to iPhone 15 Pro Maxthe same changes mentioned above have also been carried out, but the reduction in weight is 19 grams, going from 240 grams to 221. I think it is a very interesting reduction.
- Thickness: 8.25mm (up to 7.85mm)
- Weight: 221 grams (instead of 240 grams)
- Broad: 76.7mm (down from 77.6mm)
- Length: 159.9mm (down from 160.7mm)
It is important to note that the weight of these models is without cover, so an additional weight of 15-20 grams would have to be added. Hence the importance of reducing the standard weight of iPhones, since exceeding a quarter of a kilo can be uncomfortable to use on some occasions.
Will the standard iPhone 15 lose weight?
Today, it seems that the iPhone 15 They will increase their weight by one gram compared to their previous generation, going from 172 compared to 171. In addition, it seems that there will be changes in both width and length. Let’s see it below.
- Thickness: 7.8 mm (unchanged)
- Broad: 71.6mm (up to 71.5mm)
- Length: 147.6mm (up to 146.7mm)
Finally, Mark Gurman indicates that the data indicated comes from prototypes and not official models, so there may be small changes in weight between this one and the official model. Despite the lighter design, Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman says the iPhone 15 Pro will still offer a notable improvement in battery life compared to last year’s devices.
