Apple has announced the iPhone 15, Watch Series 9, and Watch Ultra 2 devices

By ANAS KHAN 15 Min Read

The massive iPhone 15 event by Apple is now done.

Finally, the iPhone 15 models all include USB-C connectors. The Dynamic Island notch and a new 48MP primary camera were added to the iPhone 15 and 15 Plus models. Although it has a less powerful 48MP sensor than the Pros, it automatically captures 24MP images.

The largest improvements were seen by the professionals. The iPhone 15 Pro and 15 Pro Max replace the bulky stainless steel with a lighter, stronger titanium alloy that comes in four colours—black, white, blue, and natural titanium—with a brushed finish.

The key improvements to the Pro line are the cameras and the A17 Pro chipset. Beginning with the latter, it is the first 3nm SoC in the world and has a 10% faster processor as well as up to 20% quicker graphics.

The Pro Max received an exclusive 5x telephoto camera thanks to a tetra prism periscope design, while both new Pros received new ultrawide whooters and a new, larger-sensor 48MP primary camera. This iPhone camera is a zoom revolution, and it took Apple years to develop.

The Watch Ultra 2 and Apple Watch Series 9 have finally arrived. The S9 system in package (SiP), which has 60% more transistors than the previous S8 series processor, is the largest improvement to these smart wearables. It sports a new 4-core NPU and a GPU that is 30% faster.

But that’s not all; the S9 SiP enables Siri queries to be handled locally, leading to substantially quicker outcomes as they don’t need to go to the cloud and back. Apple also guarantees voice dictation that is 25% more accurate.

Possibly the most impressive new feature on the Series 9 is Double Tap. Using your thumb and index finger, make a new pinch gesture that is similar to how you use the Apple Vision Pro headset to operate.

Apple event 2023: The A17 Pro chipset is currently available in iPhone 15 Pro variants.

The devices have 19 billion transistors, the first 3nm chip in the industry, and a 6-core CPU with improved performance. 

2023 Apple event: Camera on the iPhone 15 Pro Max

The smartphone has a macro photography mode with an optical zoom capability of up to 10x. 

iPhone 15 and 15 Plus

With the exception of the telephoto lens, they have many similarities with the iPhone 14 Pro, including the Dynamic Island widget that enlarges the camera cutout to display contextual information. Compared to the 15’s 6.1-inch screen and larger battery, the 15 Plus’s screen is 6.7 inches. The new watches’ second-generation Ultra Wideband chip is likewise used by both. 

Apple has updated its MagSafe to support the Qi2 standard in addition to USB-C charging.

The new back is made of “colour-infused glass,” which has an etched layer on top to give it a more lasting colour. With 48 megapixels (still twin cameras), the new main camera employs pixel binning to enhance low-light performance. By cutting into the sensor’s centre, it continues to employ digital zoom for a 2x magnification. Additionally, it will now autodetect, so you don’t have to remember to change to portrait mode. Additionally, it enables you to choose a focus after the fact.

Roadside help is now part of Apple’s emergency satellite service. It was launched by AAA in the US and is a benefit of membership. Non-members may sign up independently.

A16 Bionic’s updated neural engine offers strong background noise cancellation (also known as voice isolation) during calls.

In the US, the iPhone 15 starts at $799 and the Plus at $899. Both rates include activation by the carrier.

iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max

The Pro, which comes in 6.1-inch and 6.7-inch sizes, now features a titanium alloy casing with an aluminium substructure, making it lighter (though not slimmer) and better for dissipating heat. It also has decreased borders for more screen visibility. Their updated internal layout also makes them easier to repair, in part because the rear glass is replaceable.

The alleged action button exists. Although it can be programmed, provides haptic feedback, is still mutable, and collaborates with Dynamic Island, Additionally, iOS 17 allows for an always-on standby screen, just like Android.

For these, Apple introduced the A17 Pro processor, which features a new GPU with ray-tracing acceleration (for augmented reality!). The firm’s 3D graphics foundation, Metal, offers improved upscaling and more effective (and hence battery-friendly) functioning. Some console games will also be played natively; Apple singled out the upcoming Assassin’s Creed: Mirage.

The chip also contains new neural processing technology, a dedicated AV1 decoder, increased performance cores, a USB 3 controller, and a USB-C port.

Apple Watch Series 9 and Watch Ultra

The revised watch is powered by the new S9 processor, which has improved graphics and a neural core for faster performance, on-device processing of Siri queries, including logging and retrieving health data, and other improvements. Other Apple products will be easier to locate and operate thanks to the new Ultra Wideband processor. Additionally, the display is now brighter and has a darkening feature, which should enhance visibility in both bright and low light. Additionally, it has an A16 Bionic chip within.

The business claims that the Series 9 is its first carbon-neutral product and is net zero, in part because the leather bands were replaced with a new material called “FineWoven.” New materials, faces, and colours: There are several brand-new bands.

The Double Tap gesture, which, among other things, controls an app’s main button and scrolls across widgets, has been adapted from its accessibility features.

Preorders are currently open, and it will be available in a new pink colour when it ship in October.

Along with all the improvements to the Series 9, the new display on the Ultra provides a new modular face and a brightness of up to 3,000 nits, which is a lot brighter than the Series 9’s 2,000 nits. It also has a wider variety of altitudes.

Additionally, it has a better environmental effect thanks to its use of 95% recycled titanium.

The Series 9 starts at $399 and the Ultra 2 at $799 when both watches go on sale on September 22.
