Will the iPhone 15 Pro Max obliterate the iPhone 14 Pro Max? Or should new iPhone users breathe out a sigh of relief that their iPhone 14 Pro Max is still going to be good throughout 2023 and 2024? Should you upgrade? Or buy the old one?

has right angles. This will let the device lay more softly in the palm of your hand, as opposed to the cold, jabbing frame that the iPhone 14 has. Also, it will make the 15 appear more like a MacBook Pro, specifically how the bottom shell is more rounded while the flap is more flat and angular around the edges.

But we are not being fair — rumor has it that the front will see a slight change, too. Apparently, the iPhone 15 Pro Max will have incredibly thin bezels around its screen — possibly the thinnest bezels on a smartphone right now. Which is a bit weird, since Apple typically prefers to leave some bezel there for the user to grab to. But leaked measurements of the iPhone 15 Pro Max do state that it will be slightly shorter and narrower, while — supposedly — keeping the same screen size and aspect ratio. So, this could very well be true. The iPhone 15 Pro Max is also reported to be built with titanium, which should make it lighter than the iPhone 14 Pro Max with its stainless steel chassis. And, titanium still looks and feels premium, so no losses to be had there. As for buttons — rumors did suggest a buttonless iPhone 15 or one with a volume rocker instead of two buttons. However, the latest leaks say that all went out the window and the iPhone 15 Pro Max will have the same setup of separate power, volume+, and volume- buttons. What's interesting is that the mute switch may be replaced.Apple Watch Ultra . You can still have it mute your notifications and sounds, but — should you choose to — you'd be able to customize it to quick-launch specific apps and functions. Also, the iPhone 15 series will be getting a USB Type-C port instead of the Lightning port for charging and data transfers. You have the EU regulators to thank for this. Though, rumor is that Apple will be selling its own USB C cables with a chip inside, which"unlocks" the iPhone's fast charging and fast data transfers. Using a generic USB Type-C cable might not yield the best results. We are not rid of MFi yet! As for data transfer speeds, rumor mill says the iPhone 15 Pro Max will have a USB 3.2 connection, which is heaps, bounds, years, and miles better than the USB 2.0 speeds the iPhones have been stuck with so far. USB 3.2 supports transfer rates of up to 5 Gbps , which is already 10 times faster than USB 2.0 and its 480 Mbps. Boo! Boo, Wendy Lightning-burger, boo!We expect mostly the same screens from both devices — Samsung-made OLED panels that have the Dynamic Island cutout on top, 120 Hz refresh rates, and outstanding max brightness. The iPhone 14 Pro Max was already capable of peaking at 2,000 nits — rumor says, the iPhone 15 Pro Max will go up to 2,500 nits. Do you ever need that much brightness? Possibly not, we assume pushing that envelope is done specifically to give the iPhone 15 Pro Max more headroom with the brightness controls, not really to drive the screen searing hot at all times. But otherwise, here's the boring stuff — we expect the same 6.7-inch size, with the same 1290x2796 resolution, and a 120 Hz ProMotion refresh rate. Apple has found what it's comfortable with and we don't expect a change in those specs.Another iPhone, another new processor. If the line of succession is followed, the SoC inside the iPhone 15 Pro Max should be called Apple A17 Bionic. Who knows, maybe it's time for a shakeup and a name change — A17 Cyborg? A17 StarDestroyer? We'll see. In any case, it will be a faster and more efficient chip — again. Supposedly, the A17 will be the world's first smartphone SoC to be built on a 3 nm process, which is ridiculously small. It will, reportedly, fit 4 to 8 billion more transistors in it, and perform 18% more operations per second than the A16 Bionic inside the iPhone 14 Pro Max. Do keep in mind that"operations per second" does not translate to performance increase 1 to 1, so thus far — as much as we are thankful to the rumors and leaksters — this doesn't mean much to us. Supposedly, the A17 Bionic was supposed to support / come with LPDDR5X RAM. The Android flagships in the industry have already made the switch — the new memory technology is about 30% faster than regular LPDDR5, so... it's about time. But no, more recent leaks say that this upgrade has been postponed for the iPhone 16 series. What we do know is that the iPhone 14 Pro Max is is still very snappy, fast, smooth, and basically among the best-performing smartphones on the market. Its A16 chip will likely live on inside the non-Pro iPhone 15, so it's obviously not going to be considered obsolete just yet. As far as raw performance differences — we'll have to wait for benchmark leaks or the actual device release so we can start frying that 3 nm circuit. And software? Given that Apple updates its older iPhones just as fast as the newer ones — expect both of these devices to haveat the same time. With mostly the same features and definitely the same looks and software behavior. Supposedly, Apple has its engineers hard at work to try and figure out various ways to make the Dynamic Island useful. Which is good news here, since both the iPhone 14 Pro Max and the upcoming iPhone 15 Pro Max have a Dynamic Island around the selfie camera. We mean, it's good news for us, not good news for the engineers pulling all-nighters to figure out a use for that... design decision.Some leaksters were saying that the main camera sensor of the iPhone 15 Pro Max would be updated to the
