“It’s going to be a more expensive iPhone. Even in the United States. Apple has been losing margins year after year. Rising production costs and inflation, that makes the money the company has in the bank worth less, have finally broken the camel’s back”, the leakster says as per the Forbes report. The tipster could not offer pricing information for other devices under the lineup.

Apple iPhone 15 Ultra is expected to come powered by a powerful processor than the existing A16. It is said to offer higher RAM than the predecessor and is tipped to have a premium titanium body. Titanium would not only give the upcoming Apple iPhone 15 Ultra a premium feel but will also make the smartphone lighter, stronger and more scratch resistant than steel. The titanium case will be 35x more expensive than the existing material used on the current iPhones.

The upcoming smartphone is rumoured to have dual cameras at the front, a first for iPhones. It is also likely that the device may come with a USB Type-C charging port.
