Apple’s iPhone 15 Series Major Design Changes
Apple’s iPhone 15 series is expected to feature major design revisions. Leaked cases show that the Pro model has integrated volume buttons and more rounded edges.
According to the report, a major update will include a new periscope camera with support for up to 6x optical zoom — something only found on the Pro Max model.
The phone case has leaked.
Before each new iPhone launch, case makers dedicate significant resources to gathering leaked details of updated designs to be the first to market with cases for that model. This year’s iPhone 15 Pro lineup is no exception; while we will know all its details when Apple officially unveils it in September, some leaks have emerged.
Douban (China’s version of TikTok) user Majin Bu shared a video showing what appears to be a fake iPhone 15 Pro mockup that exactly matches a render of the case seen by MacRumors last week, featuring an updated power button and a smaller cutout, possibly a dedicated mute button, will replace the old switch setup above the volume buttons.
The iPhone 15 Pro will have two volume buttons.
Analyst Ming-Chi Kuo reports that the iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max will feature two volume buttons, contrary to previous rumors that the iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max would add a unified volume button.
Kuo’s news stemmed from a meeting with a supplier of the haptic engine that powers the new iPhone’s haptic buttons. While the supplier cannot reveal Apple as one of its customers, it can update investors on milestones and setbacks as needed.
Recent renders from 9to5Mac show that the unified volume button design is still evolving, which explains why some fake models show split buttons to represent how the volume up/down functions are separated. Also, the camera bump on these artificial models is less noticeable.

Kuo also hinted that the phones will feature USB 3.2 ports, allowing faster data transfers than regular smartphones. Unfortunately, this doesn’t help those who use their phones for work-related activities, as professional-grade accessories usually have faster transfer rates than traditional phones.

Apple has always used stainless steel in its iPhone Pro line, but based on recent rumors, that may change this year. Rumors suggest that this year will mark a change, with Apple preparing to release an “iPhone 15 Ultra,” presumably replacing the Pro Max branding, that will feature an all-titanium body, which should set it apart from the competition and offer stronger dent resistance than stainless steel And dents. However, this premium material could make the so-called iPhone 15 Ultra more expensive than the Pro smartphones provided by other competitors.
Rumors also suggest that the iPhone 15 Ultra will be equipped with a more powerful processor, which is expected to surpass the A17 Bionic chip used in the current iPhone 14 Pro models, and will be equipped with a Thunderbolt 3-compatible USB-C port that supports up to 40 gigabits per second. Data transfer speed. Additionally, the iPhone 15 Pro and 15 Pro Max may come in a new blue color with gray tones.

Apple is set to release the iPhone 15 series in September this year and is expected to come in a dark blue colorway, according to Unknownz21, an influential Twitter leaker known for providing accurate details about other Apple products like the iPhone and Vision Pro.
