Design changes

This year, Apple is expected to feature rounded edges. Currently, iPhone 14 Pro has a boxy design. Not just that, Apple reportedly intends to bring changes in the Mute switch or "Action button" to iPhone 15 Pro.

Chipset

One of the most exciting upgrades that will boost the power in the iPhone 15 Pro is the new chipset. The current iPhone 14 Pro packs an A16 Bionic chipset which is currently the most powerful chipset in the iPhone series. However, leaks suggest that the iPhone 15 Pro will pack a new A17 Bionic chipset which will be more powerful than the current A16 chipset and may well be the fastest chip on any smartphone.

Price

Dan Ives, Barron's prominent Wedbush analyst, revealed in his new research that the iPhone 15 range will indeed be more expensive than current models. However, the exact price leak is yet to reveal the expected price of the iPhone 15 Pro. On the other hand, iPhone 14 Pro was launched at a starting price of Rs. 1,29,900 in India.

Based on these expected upgrades, it is worth saying that iPhone 15 Pro will be an interesting phone to wait for.
