Apple's just-announced iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus introduce five new color options: A light pink shade, yellow, blue, green, and black.
The iPhone 15 features an aerospace-grade aluminum enclosure, and color built into the foundation of the back glass itself. Apple used an optimized custom dual-ion exchange process for this new material, and polished it with nano-crystalline particles.
iPhone 15 has a 6.1-inch display, while the iPhone 15 Plus has a 6.7-inch display. Both devices feature a frosted rear glass panel with a matte finish, an upgraded 48-megapixel main camera lens, an A16 Bionic chip, and a second-generation Ultra Wideband chip.
iPhone 15 starts at $799 for 128GB and iPhone 15 Plus starts at $899 for 128GB, with 256GB and 512GB models also available. US carriers are offering up to $800 off with trade-in. Pre-orders for the new iPhone 15 models open on Friday, September 15, and will begin shipping on Friday, September 22.
