iPhone 15 Pro Will Reportedly Feature Thinner Bezels and a Titanium Frame
If you felt the last several years of iPhones had not changed significantly year over year, the iPhone 15 might be the answer to that. A new report from Bloomberg claims the tech giant is making some big changes to its next iPhone lineup.
In the latest edition of Power On, Bloomberg reporter Mark Gurman detailed some changes Apple fans can expect from the iPhone 15 line. According to Gurman, the iPhone 15 Pro line will include titanium frames, making it lighter and more durable. The 15 Pro's screens will also reportedly include thinner bezels, thanks to new screen technology that Gurman notes was first used on the Apple Watch Series 7 to make the wearable's bezels thinner. Earlier this year, MacRumors reported leaks that supposedly showed the front glass of the iPhone 15 Pro.

Gurman also reports that the regular iPhone 15 models will get the A16 (the same processor in the iPhone 14 Pro and 14 Pro Max) and will ditch the notch in favor of Dynamic Island, the new display cutout that debuted in the 14 Pro line last year.
And as previous reports noted, Gurman mentions that the iPhone 15 would be the first to include USB-C charging support. In recent years, there were rumors that Apple would ditch its proprietary charging method, Lightning, in favor of USB-C. Last October, Apple's senior VP of worldwide marketing, Greg Joswiakt, told The Wall Street Journal that the iPhone is getting USB-C. This directly responded to a new European Union law now mandating all smartphones, tablets, and cameras with a physical charger to use USB-C by 2024.
