Eight rumored features of iPhone 15 coming in 2023: three that caught my attention --

  • USB-C port; will end the Lightning port for the iPhone
    • one will be able to charge all "modern" Apple mobile devices with same connector -- whoo-hoo!
  • volume and power "buttons" go away
  • the 3-nanometer A17 chip

A17:

A new report says Apple will be the first company in the world to employ TSMC's updated 3-nanometer process, and aims to use it in the iPhone 15 Pro and M3 Macs.
Previous claims that Apple would use 3nm processors in the 2022 MacBook Pro updates have already been quashed by analyst Ming-Chi Kuo.
Now a report citing industry sources backs up the claim that the new processor technology will be available for mass production in the second half of 2023.
According to Nikkei Asia, TSMC is currently developing an updated process that it calls N3E chipmaking technology. Three unspecified sources said that this will be used for the A17 chip in the iPhone 15 Pro in late 2023. Two of these sources also reported that what the publication describes as the "next generation of Apple's M3 chip," will use this upgrade 3-nm process.
