The media are whispering: a record broken by the supposed iPhone 15 Pro Max

  • The iPhone 15 Pro Max would weigh 221 grams
  • This would make it the lightest 6.7-inch iPhone
  • New buttons could also appear on mobile

As the potential September keynote approaches, rumors about the iPhone 15 are rife. One of them, just published, concerns the technical sheet of the largest but also the most affordable model: the iPhone 15 Pro Max. According to the source at the origin of this leak, the mobile would only weigh221 grammes. Or 19 grams less than the iPhone 14 Pro Max, which would make itthe lightest 6.7-inch iPhonenever marketed by Apple. How did the firm achieve this? This remains a secret.

However, we know that under the hood, the most imposing component remains thebattery– and from a long way away. But the main improvements, from one generation of premium iPhone to the next, are mainly found on the processor side. So maybe it'sthe A17 Bionic chipwho is behind this new record. This could be equipped with no less than twelve cores, including six for the graphics card and six others for the CPU. All accompanied by six gigabytes of RAM, produced in particular by the Korean company Samsung.

Other design changes

With this, other clues lean towardsarrival of an “Action” button on the iPhone 15 Pro. This would trigger software actions customizable by the user, such as the eponymous interface of the Apple Watch Ultra connected watch.

iPhone 15 Pro: 191g
iPhone 15 Pro Max: 221g

For other sources, on the other hand, the new iPhones will be completelyfree from the slightest physical button. With, instead, simple haptic feedback like that of the Touch ID button on the third generation iPhone SE. But here again, doubt is rife. Especially since for some analysts, although this format is indeed in the cards, we would not see the color of it before the generation of iPhone 16 Pro – i.e. towards the end of 2024.

Finally, still regarding the appearance, the most pressing rumors estimate that the screen of the iPhone 15 Pro Max would be a bit larger than that of its predecessor. Particularly given today's information, this would be due to thinner borders around the 2K display.

With the iPhone 15 Pro Max, another XXL mobile should see the light of day during the next Apple keynote. This is of course the iPhone 15 Plus, with a screen that will probably be the same size but with a much more affordable price. This, to the detriment of the chip, the photo sensor and perhaps the autonomy.
