Apple iPhone 15 Plus

Apple iPhone 15 Plus product description

The Apple iPhone 15 Plus is the bigger brother of the iPhone 15, giving it more room for a bigger battery and a larger screen. It is getting quite a makeover for the first time in years, making it look like a Pro model from last year.

Dynamic Island is big Plus

2023 is a pretty significant year for the iPhone Plus model. For example, like the Pro last year, the model is now getting a new screen. One without a notch but with the Dynamic Island. This incorporates the Face ID components and selfie camera into the screen. Its shape changes when you get an incoming call, receive notifications or start a timer. Because the software cleverly considers the hardware, that big hole melts together with the screen and interface. And so now this technology is also becoming available for lower-cost iPhone models.

Two cameras, three zoom levels

But the iPhone 15 Plus borrows more features from the previous Pro. What about a 48MP camera? That's considerably more resolution than the 12 megapixels you had before. And with so many more pixels added, Apple can now zoom in on the sensor without losing quality. With those extra pixels and the help of artificial intelligence, the iPhone 15 Plus now has 2x zoom. So, on top of the 0.5x zoom of the ultra-wide angle and the 1x zoom of the portrait lens, there are three levels of zoom with just two lenses.

Main Apple iPhone 15 Plus specifications

• Large 6.7" screen, now with Dynamic Island and up to 2000-nits bright
• 48+12MP camera system with 2x zoom, 120° ultra-wide angle and 4K video
• 12MP selfie camera with autofocus and Face ID face recognition
• Proven Apple A16 Bionic processor with 128, 256 or 512GB storage
• Satellite communications for emergency response (first two years free)
• USB C connecter for 20W charging
• Wireless charging with MagSafe or Qi2

Android cable to the rescue

The borrowing didn't stop there, as Apple applied the A16 Bionic chip inside. We also found that last year's Pro guarantees a smoothly responsive device with excellent performance. Other improvements include more accurate tracking of AirTags with UWB version 2, roadside assistance via satellite (available in selected countries), and not to forget the USB connecter at the bottom. The latter now allows you to charge your iPhone with an Android cable. Unfortunately, that still comes with a maximum of 20 watts, so take your time.
