Apple has launched their top of the range iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max yesterday night. These phones are designed with aerospace-grade titanium that’s strong yet lightweight. Both models feature a new refined brush texture, contoured edges, and the thinnest borders on iPhone. The new design also features contoured edges and a customisable Action button, allowing users to personalise their iPhone experience. Besides design cahnge, these phones get camera upgrades including a more advanced 48MP Main camera system that now supports the new super-high-resolution 24MP default, the next generation of portraits with Focus and Depth Control, improvements to Night mode and Smart HDR, and an all-new 5x Telephoto camera exclusively on iPhone 15 Pro Max.

Now with hardware-accelerated ray tracing — which is 4x faster than software-based ray tracing — iPhone 15 Pro offers smoother graphics, as well as more immersive AR applications and gaming experiences.
These phones come with Action button which replaces the single-function switch used to toggle between ring and silent, offering additional options so users can choose between quickly accessing the camera or flashlight; activating Voice Memos, Focus modes, Translate, and accessibility features like Magnifier; or using Shortcuts for more options. A press-and-hold gesture with fine-tuned haptic feedback and visual cues in the Dynamic Island ensure the new button launches the intended action.
