The tech world is abuzz with anticipation as Apple’s iPhone 15 is expected to make its debut next month. However, the spotlight is not solely on the imminent release. The tech-savvy are already peering into the future, scrutinizing product IDs for Apple’s processor series, set to launch two years from now.
The eagle-eyed tech enthusiasts at Wccftech were the first to spot the leaked ID numbers for Apple’s future chips, shared by renowned iPhone leaker @_orangera1n. The leaks suggest the unveiling of the A19 Bionic for iPhones and the M5 chip for Macs. As of now, Apple is gearing up to showcase its A17 Bionic chip for the iPhone 15 series, while the proprietary M3 line is expected to feature in the company’s MacBook Pros and MacBook Airs. The M5 chip is likely to come in multiple variants, akin to its predecessor, the M2, which offered “Pro,” “Max,” and “Ultra” versions catering to a range of devices from slim laptops to powerful desktop computers.
The Bionic chip series has consistently outperformed Android counterparts in most benchmarks, and the A17 Bionic is set to raise the bar as Apple’s first-ever 3nm processor. While these leaked IDs only reveal the identifier tags for the upcoming chipsets, they underscore Apple’s forward-thinking approach to tech innovation. Meanwhile, more details about the iPhone 15 continue to emerge. Rumors suggest that Apple may rename its larger-sized Pro Max phone brand to “Ultra,” a claim supported by Andrew O’Hara from AppleInsider, who cited multiple sources confirming the name change.
The iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Ultra are expected to be powered by the 3nm A17 Bionic chip. Both models might also feature a 10x periscope telephoto lens, a significant upgrade from the current 12-MP 2X telephoto lens on the iPhone 14 Pro models. However, this lens rumor contradicts earlier reports from Apple analysts like Ming-Chi Kuo and Jeff Pu, who suggested a 5x or 6x periscope lens exclusive to the largest iPhone model. Therefore, this latest lens rumor should be taken with a grain of salt. O’Hara also lent credibility to rumors that both premium models will have larger screens, an “Action” button replacing the mute toggle, and titanium frames instead of the usual aluminum. apple.com
