Apple Lunched the iPhone 15 Series with USB-C Port
Finally Apple launched the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus during its Wanderlust event on September 12. In order to meet with impending laws from the European Union, Apple announced last year that it would move to USB-C, and the iPhone 15 is now the first iPhone to do so.
The pricing of the iPhone 15 starts at $799 for a 128GB model, and the price of the iPhone 15 Plus is $899 for a 128GB model. Preorders for both will begin this Friday, and both will be accessible on September 22.
The Dynamic Island will be included with every model of the iPhone 15 as well. That pill-shaped notch, which offers a novel method to view some notifications and interact with apps, initially appeared on the iPhone 14 Pro and Pro Max. The OLED Super Retina display of the iPhone 15 is also 1,600 nits amazing and supports Dolby Vision content. In direct sunshine, this display’s highest brightness is 2,000 nits, so it’s twice as bright as the iPhone 14.
