Instead of a stainless steel frame, the iPhone 15 Pro and 15 Pro Max will have a titanium one to give them a more upscale feel. Titanium is also stronger and relatively lighter than steel. It is used in many high-end watches because it is less likely to react with oxygen.

Gurman claims in his most recent Power On newsletter that the newer iPhone 15 models will have "faster processors," but the name of the component is still unknown. Apple might refer to it as the A17 Bionic chip, which is the replacement for the A16 Bionic chip found in iPhone 14 Pro models. The iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Max models, however, might include the current A16 chipset. The newsletter also emphasises that haptic buttons will take the place of physical volume rockers on the iPhone 15 Pro.

It implies that Apple will eliminate a further set of physical iPhone buttons. Apple eliminated the physical SIM card tray and made e-SIM support available on all iPhone 14 models last year. This change, though, is only applicable to the US market. According to reports, both the vanilla and more recent Pro models will have a Dynamic Island notch. On the iPhone 14 Pro and Pro Max, Apple debuted this technology, which breaks up the monotony of older notches and hole-punch cutouts on many Android phones. Depending on the notifications, the Dynamic Island notch's size can change. Users can view privacy indicators, low battery alerts, AirDrop transfers, and notifications for Apple Pay transactions.

The most recent Power On newsletter emphasises that 2023 will be a lacklustre year for Apple aside from the iPhone 15 models. The company's long-awaited mixed-reality headset is expected to be its most significant launch to date. According to rumours, Apple will unveil its mixed-reality headset before June's WWDC 2023. Most likely, it won't be for sale until later this year.

Gurman anticipates the release of new MacBooks and Mac Pros equipped with the most recent M2 chipset iterations, but no design changes.
