iPhone 15 Ultra mockup unboxed revealing USB-C port and other new details | Digit

We are still some months away from the Apple iPhone 15 launch event, and there are already a lot of details we know about the iPhone 15 series due to leaks and rumours. Now, Lew from Unbox Therapy has shown off an iPhone 15 Ultra mockup that corroborates many of the supposed changes and features of the upcoming iPhone model.

5 iPhone 15 Ultra features that we expect to see so far

1. iPhone 15 Ultra could come with a brushed metal look on the side frame and a matte finish at the back. This could lend more grip to the phone. Since the new iPhone will be thicker compared to an iPhone 14 Pro Max, the grippy back could help in handling it better. The thickness could also mean the protrusion of the back camera rings would be less obvious and there will be more space for the battery inside.

2. Bowing to the mounting pressures from the EU and other government regulations, Apple could finally equip an iPhone with USB-C and that is apparent in the iPhone 15 Ultra mockup too.

Compared to a lightning female port, the cavity has a slim pin in the centre.  

Now, not every USB-C cable would be fully compatible with the new iPhones as Apple is reportedly integrating a chip into the port that checks for MFI-certified cables. Only cables of this kind could support fast charging and optimum data speeds.

Opposing this EU has brought a new mandate however the same will be in action a couple of years from now.

3. The mute switch is now a button, at least it’s so in the iPhone 15 Ultra mockup. This appears to be in application like the action button on the Apple Watch Ultra. 

4. The bezels, as per Lew, are half of what is on the iPhone 14 Pro Max. For symmetry, the corners have also been shrunk. Dynamic Island is also more noticeable because of the resulting larger screen-to-body ratio.

5. Meanwhile, inside the iPhone 15 Ultra, we could expect A17 Bionic based on a 5nm manufacturing process. 

Finally, for the iPhone 15 Pro series pricing, we rely on a few sources other than Lew’s video which tells us to expect a $100 hike. That could result in the iPhone 15 Pro’s price being $1,099 and the Pro Max’s pricing being $1,199.  

Only time will tell how much of these speculations turn out to be true. We’ll keep you posted.
