iPhone 15 to come with this major design update, new leaks reveal titanium frame

Apple with its cutting-edge technology and penchant for innovations to make life easier for its vast user base has been hailed as the gold standard of smartphones. Ever since launching its maiden iPhone in 2007, Apple has been introducing different iterations of the device. And, each edition of the iPhone has been a testament to Apple’s technical prowess.

Now, Apple fans around the world are eagerly looking forward to the slew of innovations that the Cupertino-based tech giant is planning to introduce in the iPhone 15 series slated for a 2023 launch.

In the run-up to the launch, several leaks and rumours surrounding the iPhone 15 are making the rounds on the Internet. According to the latest reports, the iPhone 15 may come with a titanium casing and rounded back, which would bring a major update to the Apple smartphone’s look.


The tech company’s recent smartphones – the iPhone 12, iPhone 13 and iPhone 14 – were launched with squared edges. A report also suggested that the new iPhone will have a design similar to the iPhone 5C which had a squared front panel with rounded edges.

A noted tipster identified as ShrimpApplePro claimed in his tweet that the new iPhone 15 will feature a new border design. He said that the back edge corner will have rounded corners, contrary to the existing line of iPhones. In the same tweet, the tipster said that the new iPhone will be made using titanium.

The tipster is known for his track record of accurately predicting changes to Apple devices. The existing square-edged design language is popular among users, and it is because of its popularity that Apple has been implementing it across devices. However, it remains to be seen how the new iPhone 15 will look considering the new design language.

The Cupertino-based tech behemoth has introduced some of the most revolutionary changes to the smartphone experience. This year, the tech giant unveiled its premium line-up of smartphones, the iPhone 14 series. The iPhone 14 Pro models made heads turn with the inclusion of a 48MP primary camera and the intriguing Dynamic Island notch.
