finally sheds some light on that. “People with knowledge of the new devices” informed Gurman that the switch to titanium makes the phone “more durable and about 10% lighter.”
Applying that weight cut to the iPhone 14 Pro models can give us a rough estimate for the iPhone 15 Pro and 15 Pro Max.The smaller iPhone 15 Pro might weigh roughly 185 grams, which is 10% less than the iPhone 14 Pro at 206 grams. The iPhone 15 Pro Max might weigh around 216 grams compared to the iPhone 14 Pro Max at 240 grams. Those reductions in weight would be quite significant.
I switched from the iPhone X to the iPhone 14 Pro last September, and the weight was one of my biggest gripes about the new phone. Assuming the estimate above is accurate, the big drop in weight would be great news to this longtime user.Apple Inc. Gurman doesn’t mention battery capacities for the iPhone 15 series. But he points out that the biggest enhancements from that A17 Bionic chip that powers the new Pros are battery life savings.
Still, if the iPhone 15 design leaks are accurate, we are getting larger batteries from all iPhone models. And they should not impact the overall weight. For example, the iPhone 14 Pro has a slightly larger battery pack than the iPhone 13 Pro, as it’s 0.2 mm thicker. But that translates to a weight increase of just 2 grams. The iPhone 13 Pro Max has the same weight as the iPhone 14 Pro Max.
