While a previous report said the bezels would be only 1.55mm thick, which is world-beating already, Gurman stipulates a thickness of 1.5mm. Gordon Kelly covered this just this week, but Gurman has even better news. And the Pro models released this year will have even thinner bezels. The iPhone 15 and 15 Plus will introduce the Dynamic Island currently restricted to the iPhone 14 Pro and Pro Max. Gurman says that Apple takes another step towards an all-screen phone with this year’s models. Oh, and the solid-state buttons thought to replace the power and volume buttons, but abandoned because of cost increase, were part of a project called Bongo. And the cameras will get updated lenses and “a wider range of optical zoom on the largest model.” This is arguably the biggest design change but, again, widely publicized already. The Pro phones will continue to have frosted glass for the back of the handset, but the edges will be less sharp. I didn’t mention, because I figure everybody has heard this, that the entire range will switch from Lightning to a USB-C socket on the base. He says it’ll be the biggest upgrade to the iPhone since 5G was added in the iPhone 12. However, for completists, Gurman also talked about these things: the super-thin bezels predicted for the iPhone which are made possible by the low-injection pressure over-molding process (LIPO) will one day be coming to the iPad as well. To be honest, there was a lot, and some of it was assumed to be common knowledge. įinally, I wasn’t entirely comprehensive in my list of new leaks from Mark Gurman. Oh, and it looks like we could see more titanium than just on the iPhone: the next Apple Watch Ultra could come in another shade. I think the new bezels could do the same and it could be déjà vu all over again, as they say. Remember the first all-screen Android phones where the display sat towards the top and there was a noticeable chin at the base? The introduction of the iPhone X really changed things for the better. Like ok, what’s so revolutionary about that?” And here I disagree, thinner bezels will make a big visual difference. This leaker is also known for their no-nonsense attitude and has just tweeted, “Everyone in shock over thin bezels.
