The great performance of the iPhone 15 is based on the power of the A16 Bionic chip developed by Apple itself. This chip not only ensures the smartphone's long battery life, but also the quality of calls (voice isolation), photos and graphics in video games.
As intuitive and fun to use as ever, the iOS17 interface offers new features to make your everyday life more extra than ordinary. For example, you can personalise the image that appears when you call your contacts, transcribe audio messages and create stickers. And you'll love the Dynamic Island which is now available to the base model of the 15 series (before it was only available to the iPhone 14 Pro series) - an information bubble that pops up on the screen so you never miss a thing you're doing.
