For the last few years we’ve said that the pick of theiPhonerange is the Pro, so for example theiPhone 14 Prois a lot more powerful than the entry leveliPhone 14but theiPhone 14 Pro Maxis probably overkill for most. That’s likely to be the case with theiPhone 15too.
The Pro gets most of the new features without the Pro Max price tag. And, according to a new report,Appleintends the iPhone 15 Pro to be its most in-demand phone when it launches in late 2023.
That report comes viaitHome, which quotes a display supply chain analyst who says Apple has ordered considerably more displays for the iPhone 15 Pro than it did for the iPhone 14 Pro.
The analyst says that the order volume could be 100% higher across the iPhone 15 series, with the iPhone 15 Pro accounting for 58% of orders. For the iPhone 14 Pro, that figure was 43%.
The “pro” is short for “profitable”
That might also explain why the Pro Max was the bigger seller, accounting for 28% to the Pro’s 23%. That makes it Apple’s most profitable phone thanks to it having the highest price as well as a typically large Apple profit margin.
We’re still in the rumour stage for the iPhone 15 Pro but we do know that Apple intends to keep differentiating the Pro and Pro Max models from the standard and Plus versions. That means the iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max are likely to geta faster flavour of USB-C,thinner bezelsand asignificant camera upgrade.
