Alleged iPhone 15 Pro live image seemingly confirms USB Type-C port

iPhone 15 Pro dummy unit spotted online

Images of an alleged iPhone 15 Pro model were shared by tipster Ice Universe on Twitter. Here, the iPhone’s back design, side and bottom panels are visible. We can clearly see that the device has a USB-C port, one major change that has been rumoured for the iPhone 15 Pro. Multiple reports and leaks have suggested that Apple will move to USB Type-C on iPhones starting with the iPhone 15 series.

The images also show a physical SIM tray, and what looks like the rumoured ‘Action’ button. This suggests that Apple will continue offering the SIM tray for iPhones selling outside the US. With the iPhone 14 series, Apple made only eSIM-compatible ones for the US market. The Action button is said to replace the mute switch, and it will come with customisable features. 

Otherwise, the design of the iPhone 15 Pro still looks the same as the iPhone 14 Pro. The camera module is the same, and the speaker grille is also at the bottom. We don’t see the front design here but it’s most likely going to feature the Dynamic Island that Apple introduced on the iPhone 14 Pro and Pro Max. The tipster suggests that these images could be of a dummy model but it isn’t confirmed though so it might just not be the final design for the iPhone 15 Pro.
