Aren't we just looking at a slightly slimmer 15 pro due to the thinner bezels as previously leaked, making the base model 15 look larger? It makes no sense to me that they would only increase the size on the base model, and with an insignificant amount at that.
Got a tip for us?

Well said I like my 14 Promax but it takes time to adjust from an Apple X. If they get any bigger what is the point of calling it a phone (just not the bezel) when they size tablets?

I hope they bring the Mini back eventually, because at this rate, the "standard" iPhone in a few years is going to be the size of the current Pro Max. 😵
Anyway, I'm really glad it looks like the pro might become a little slimmer and lighter, I might just consider trading in my 13 mini for one if they manage to knock off some of the weight. Love my mini, but would like the telephoto lens some day.

Yeah, same here. I switched from the 8 to the 11 Pro and while it's tolerable, I would rather go smaller (~5.5") for my next phone again.
I don't mind the existence of larger phones and there's clearly a market for them, and I can understand that maybe the top cameras cannot be fit into a smaller body, but still I would appreciate a phone that I can conveniently operate with one hand again.
I agree, I really wish they would just make a Pro Mini with something like a 5.6" screen and all the (future) features of the Pro.
The iPhone 16 mini will be back, and it will be 6.2". The iPhone 16 Pro will be 12" and it will come with a wheelbarrow.

No, but sales are down, so maybe this is their attempt at drumming up some interest.

At this point I guess I’ll be upgrading my 12 mini to a … used 13 mini.
For f*cks sake please stop making these phones bigger. They are already huge.
Honestly wish they had stuck to 5.8” this gradual bumping in size is stupid. That is literally what the plus models are for 6.1 is already too large
Wtf is this article? It says iPhone 15 to be bigger than iPhone 14...and proceeds to show an image of iPhone 15 Pro being larger than iPhone 15.
I totally agree; when iPhone X came out, I was like "Amazing!! Higher-end device in perfect size!". I like my iPhone 13 Pro but I wish it was the size of the X...

Samsung is able to make a pretty thin phone with very small protruding lenses that don't look that out of place but still on par with Apples image quality, so why the hell can't Apple?
Apple honestly needs new designers as the ridiculous camera bump can't just keep getting bigger and bigger to the point of it being as thick as the phone itself.

Yea, why can't those designers come up with some new physics? Let's show those engineers how it's done. /s

Does it really interfere in videos? I thought that normal videos fit into the safe zone below the notch? I know there are some extra wide panavision-style videos but are they that common?

Yes. We usually start seeing some "next year" rumors in the week before an iPhone launch and then they periodically crop up after that when there is a lull in new product announcements.

Phone size or screen size ?
Because from published renders of CAD, the 15 pro seems actually narrower than the iPhone X.
The 14pro picture is 387 pixel wide while the 15pro is 380 pixel wide, which translate into a 1.3mm size reduction. In comparison, the iPhone X is 0.6mm narrower than the 14pro.

Exactly! And if you put it in a case the bump is reduced anyway, if that matters.
