iPhone 15 features and software
December 22,2022
The iPhone 14 family marks the first time we see Apple use different processors for its Pro and non-Pro models, with the Pro and Ultra models getting the newest chips and the non-Pro versions using the generation older processors.
We expect this unfortunate trend to continue in the iPhone 15 series too, but that will depend on the complicated processor manufacturing environment. Chip maker TSMC that supplies Apple with processors kicked off 3nm production that could be used in the Apple A17 Bionic chipset, but it's way too early to tell how this will scale, and that is one important factor that will determine the processors used in the iPhone 15 series.
We will be updating this section with new information as it comes in.
