The broadcast was broadcast on Tuesday on the company’s YouTube channel. One of the main distinguishing features of the new series of smartphones (iPhone 15, iPhone 15 Plus, iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max) is the transition from the Lightning charging port to the USB Type-C connector. Also, Dynamic Island will be available on all devices – a cutout on the screen for the front camera, which works as a separate mini-screen. Previously, only the iPhone 14 Pro had it. The iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus will be equipped with A16 Bionics processors, which were introduced with the iPhone 14 Pro and 14 Pro Max last year. New Pro versions come with the A17 Pro processor. Budget versions of the iPhone 15 will appear in five new colors: black, blue, green, yellow and pink. The Pro versions will have a titanium case, in four shades to choose from. The screen diagonal of the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Pro is 6.1 inches, and the screen diagonal of the iPhone 15 Plus and iPhone 15 Pro Max is 6.7 inches. According to the presentation, prices for the iPhone 15 will start at $799 (128 GB), for the iPhone 15 Plus – at $899. The minimum price for iPhone 15 Pro is $999, iPhone 15 Pro Max is $1199. All smartphones in the series will be available for pre-order on September 15. A new S9 processor has been announced for the Apple Watch Series 9 smartwatch. Maximum screen brightness has been increased to 2,000 nits, which Apple says makes the display twice as bright as the previous version. In addition, there will be a Double Tap feature. Thanks to it, the user can control the watch without touching the screen – by moving the fingers on the hand on which he wears the watch. Prices for the new watch will start at $399. Apple Watch Ultra 2 features an even brighter screen with up to 3,000 nits. The corporation promises 36 hours of battery life for the gadget in normal mode and 72 hours in energy saving mode.
