Apple's approach to the design of its standard iPhone series has remained fairly consistent in recent years, opting for subtle refinements rather than drastic changes.
With the iPhone 15, Apple continues this tradition by retaining the aircraft-grade aluminium frame but adding a more contoured edge. This thoughtful design adjustment enhances the phone's ergonomics, making it more comfortable to hold,
particularly for those who prefer using the device without a case.
Another noteworthy design change in the iPhone 15 is the introduction of colour-infused glass with a matte finish on the back.
The durability and water-resistant capabilities of the iPhone 15 remain on par with its predecessor, featuring the robust Ceramic Shield display and maintaining an overall IP68 rating.
For those who noticed the absence of a SIM tray in the iPhone 14, this year's model introduces a significant change on the bottom edge. Apple has made the long-awaited shift to USB-C, replacing the Lightning jack.
While it is a slightly larger port, this transition aligns the iPhone 15 with Apple's broader ecosystem, offering users a universal connection.
