Thinner bezels, a new action button, and a Bionic chip will be presented with iPhone 15 Pro

The next iPhone 15 series is anticipated to arrive in September 2023. There are several reports that indicate the major offerings of the iPhone 15 Pro. In this short piece, we will uncover some of the rumored features that are expected to feature with the iPhone 15 Pro later this year.

Thinner bezels

Thin bezels are a feature that is featured on every new smartphone. However, it seems like that Apple is taking things to a new level. In accordance with the information of a new tipster, the Pro model will feature just 1.51mm thin bezels. If this happens, it will be the first time that a smartphone features such thin bezels.

The main query at this point is if this would lead to a larger screen and/or maybe alter the aspect ratio of the display. At this point, it remains unclear. However, narrower bezels should result in a Pro Max version with a smaller overall footprint.

3nm A17 Bionic Chipset

The iPhone 15 Pro is expected to feature the A17 Bionic chipset. But the question here is will it be a 3nm chipset or not? The A16 Bionic chipset used in the iPhone 14 Pro model is a 4nm process. A 3nm A17 Bionic could mean improved performance and better battery life.

if the A17 Bionic chipset is a 3nm process then it could be the one coming from TSMC. Reports suggest that the 3nm process will utilize 35% less energy. It will be more power efficient and deliver better performance.

New Action button

Several reports and rumors indicated that the company might eliminate the mute switch and replace it with an Action Button. Like the one available with the Apple Watch Ultra. This piece of information is based on a tipster analyst941. Action buttons could serve several purposes.

It appears that the iPhone 15 Pro was originally intended to include solid-state buttons. However, according to analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, Apple had to abandon that plan for the forthcoming iPhone release due to technical difficulties.
