The Apple event passes, and as on every occasion, the controversy grows around whether or not the new devices from the Cupertino company are really worth it, always using previous devices and of course the competition as a starting point or comparison.
Here we have it clear, The iPhone 15 Pro is the biggest generational change at Apple in recent years, and these are the reasons. Discover with us what the iPhone 15 Pro hides that makes it such a special device and why it may be the greatest advance in design, materials and technology in recent years.
The material is Titanium
Jony Ive coined (pun intended) in the popular technological proverb the concept that aluminum was "hills". Watching him pronounce “aluminium” every few seconds during a presentation was almost orgasmic. Yes, I was selling you aluminum, an invention from the early XNUMXth century as the quintessence of design, High quality manufacturing and materials. I can't judge you, the truth is that it's comical, but no one has been able to give aluminum as much cachet as Apple has done, which has been using it in its devices for decades.
Be that as it may, today we have not come to talk about aluminum, but rather titanium. The iPhone is no longer made of one piece, now the aluminum inside is joined with the titanium edges, which helps reduce the weight of the device significantly. because to be honest, the iPhone had gotten out of hand with marzipan last Christmas.
After this strict diet, The iPhone has lost approximately 20 grams, which means that the Pro and Pro Max models of the iPhone 15 weigh almost the same as the model launched four years ago, and this has a lot of merit. In fact, they are several tens of grams below the direct competition in devices considered "premium."
In this way, Apple wanted to be disruptive in design and materials, as it did in the past, using a relatively exclusive material that now more than ever makes it feel different. So yes, Titanium is one of the first reasons why the iPhone 15 Pro is completely different from any other iPhone.
The best processor ever assembled
The new iPhone 15 Pro mounts the processor Apple A17 Pro, a 3 nanometer processor that will arrive accompanied by 8 GB of RAM, which also represents a growth with respect to the previous model and also makes it the iPhone with the most RAM in history, the same capacity as the entry-level models of the MacBook range.
We have an SoC with 6 CPUs 10% more powerful than those of the Apple A16, as well as another 4 accompanying CPUs focused on efficiency. For its part, the new Pro-Class GPU has grown in power and capabilities, flexing muscle and offering a glimpse into the future, running games like Resident Evil Village, which delighted the attendees. We remember that portable video game consoles like the Nintendo Switch have problems running games like this.
The improvement is slight from the previous version, but Apple has been quick to make it clear that the iPhone 15 Pro is the most powerful smartphone in the world.
At the forefront of photography
Point up and point down in DXOMARK, content creators are clear, the iPhone is the best terminal in terms of cameras. And if the iPhone 14 Pro Max already had the best video recording on the market and the best Portrait Mode, it was not going to be less now that Apple has implemented notable improvements in its cameras.
The iPhone 15 Pro camera will have a camera main 48Mpx accompanied by a 12Mpx Ultra Wide Angle and a 12x Telephoto Lens also with XNUMXMpx resolution, which will allow an optical zoom of up to five times. In the case of the iPhone 15 Pro Max we will find a five-times telephoto lens, never before seen on an iPhone.
The reality goes far beyond Megapixels. The Cupertino company strengthens its software with the creation of high-fidelity content, video recording with the best stabilization on the market and the greatest fidelity between the previewed image and the final capture, that is, the iPhone does not hide any "ace" under the sleeve, what you see on the screen is what you capture. That is why content creators are (we are) clear, the iPhone is the definitive tool.
Breaking molds
Apple has not only wanted to make it clear that this iPhone is different by saying goodbye to the steel that the iPhone 4 and 4s wore, to later establish itself in the highest-end versions with the arrival of the precious iPhone X, but also that in the absence of Dynamic Island, The Action Button has arrived to make it clear to you that you do not have to cling to the past, that Apple is very clear that it is time to change things.
More for less
Yes, more for less, and it is that the iPhone 15 Pro has suffered a notable price drop, since the entry version, with a capacity of 128 GB of storage costs €1.219, which means a price drop of €100 , around 8% of the total.
And it is that if the iPhone had raised the price, many blog covers would have been opened alluding to the insatiable money of the Cupertino company, but it seems that nothing is further from reality. Bread goes up, olive oil goes up, cars go up, and the iPhone goes down.
You can reserve the iPhone 15 Pro at 14:00 p.m. (Spain) on September 15, with the first deliveries scheduled for September 22. Prices will start at €1.219 for the 15 GB iPhone 128 Pro, and €1.469 for the 15 GB iPhone 256 Pro Max.
