The iPhone 15 series — which includes the iPhone 15, iPhone 15 Plus, iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max — is expected to debut next month. Apple’s next-generation iPhone models are expected to feature a USB Type-C port instead of the company’s proprietary Lightning connector. The Cupertino company has not yet confirmed whether the iPhone 15 series will feature a connector that complies with EU regulations. Now, leaked images show that Apple’s next-generation iPhone models will feature a so-called USB Type-C port. Meanwhile, leaked images of iPhone 15 Pro Max cases corroborate claims that Apple will equip the Pro models with new action buttons.
X (formerly known as Twitter) users @lipilipsi and @John011235 shared images of the USB Type-C connector assemblies that will debut on the iPhone 15, iPhone 15 Plus, and iPhone 15 Pro Max. The leaked image does not include the iPhone 15 Pro’s connector. Notably, the authenticity of these images could not be confirmed, and neither user specified the source of these component images.
It’s worth noting that Apple previously confirmed that future phones will be equipped with the same charging port as modern Android smartphones to comply with EU regulations, but the company did not specify whether it will do so on the iPhone 15 series. It is expected to be announced in September. Previous reports have suggested that the phones will feature modern connectors, but only Made for iPhone (MFi) certified accessories will offer full functionality.
This year, Apple also plans to replace the iconic mute switch on its iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max models with an “action” button that can be programmed to perform specific tasks, launch shortcuts, and toggle certain accessibility features. Last year, the Apple Watch Ultra was the company’s first device to feature a dedicated button.
X user @MajinBuOfficial has leaked images of the MagSafe silicone case (in three colors) for the iPhone 15 Ultra (allegedly the name of the top iPhone 15 series model), hinting at a new button above the volume rocker next-gen phone.
While Apple is unlikely to confirm the presence of a new action button on its upcoming smartphone, previously leaked images of the phone’s accessory also suggest the absence of a mute switch and the addition of a dedicated programmable button, which is expected to arrive with Apple soon. high-end smartphones.
