iPhone 15 camera features
iPhone 15 and 15 Plus models come with two back cameras, while the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max models have three back cameras.
If you Want to use the Pro models, you also should know that the iPhone 15 Pro model retains the familiar 3X zoom lens but with some other enhancements. While the larger iPhone 15 Pro Max model introduces a new 5X zoom lens, offering significantly more zoom capability. However, it’s worth mentioning that the image quality in the 3X to 4.9X zoom range may be slightly lower on the larger model compared to the smaller one.
Because of the larger size of the new camera, in this year Apple is only using it in the Pro model, while some theorize that next year both the iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max will have that new 5X zoom lens.

iPhone 15 release date, specs, price, and must-know features.
A significant design change in the iPhone 15 series that has garnered a lot of attention is the shift from a Lightning port to a USB-C port. Apple had steadfastly stuck with the Lightning port for iPhones over the years, despite adopting USB-C for iPads (initially on the iPad Pro in 2018) and MacBook’s (starting in 2015). However, it appears that pressure from the European Commission due to new regulations has finally compelled Apple to make this transition.
iPhone 15: performance
The iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus are powered by the same A16 Bionic processor found in the iPhone 14 Pro series, so users can expect a performance level similar to last year’s high-end models. Meanwhile, the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max are equipped with Apple’s latest A17 Pro processor.
According to Apple, the A17 Pro boasts a “10 percent faster” CPU and “20 percent faster” GPU (graphics processing unit), although it’s not clear what specific comparisons the company is making.
Apple has placed a strong focus on enhancing graphics and gaming performance with hardware-accelerated ray tracing, made possible by the A17 Pro processor in the iPhone 15 Pro models. The company has highlighted the ability to run full console games like “Resident Evil Village,” “Resident Evil 4,” “Death Stranding,” and “Assassin’s Creed Mirage” on these devices.
One of the most significant design changes is that the iPhone 15 Pro models, including the Pro and Pro Max, are now constructed from aerospace-grade titanium. This material choice not only enhances durability but also makes them exceptionally lightweight, marking them as the lightest Pro models ever, according to Apple.
All four models feature contoured edges, but only the Pro and Pro Max come with a new customizable action button that replaces the familiar side switch for silent mode. This new button can be assigned various functions, such as starting voice memos, launching the camera, using shortcuts, or performing other tasks as per your preferences. It’s designed to reduce the chances of accidentally muting the phone, a common occurrence with the previous switch.
The iPhone 15 Pro models are available in four colors: white, black, blue, and natural. In contrast, the standard iPhone 15 and 15 Plus models offer brighter color options, including pink, yellow, green, blue, and black. Apple has integrated these colors into the back glass, which features a textured matte finish.
Similar to the iPhone 14 and 14 Plus, the iPhone 15 and 15 Plus do not feature Apple’s always-on display with Promotion support. However, they do offer a peak brightness of 2000 nits, which should make it easier to view the screen in bright sunlight. This brightness level is twice as high, at least on paper, compared to the iPhone 14 models.
The screen sizes remain the same as the previous generation, with options for either 6.1 inches or 6.7 inches. However, the Pro models have slimmer bezels than their predecessors. Additionally, the Dynamic Island feature, previously exclusive to the iPhone 14 Pro models, is now available across all iPhone 15 handsets. This feature provides dynamic access to notifications located around the camera lens at the top of the screen.
