The new iPhone 15 lineup has arrived, bringing with it four different models: the iPhone 15, iPhone 15 Plus, iPhone 15 Pro, and iPhone 15 Pro Max. This release does away with the mini version and offers two display sizes: a 6.1-inch screen for the standard and Pro models, and a 6.7-inch screen for the Plus and Pro Max models. Notably, this year’s Pro models are crafted with titanium, which makes them lighter and contributes to a thinner bezel design, a noticeable change from the previous generation.
In terms of weight, both the iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max models are 19 grams lighter than their respective predecessors, making them easier to carry without altering the overall size significantly. The dimensions of the new models remain close to last year’s designs, providing a familiar feel in hand.
For consumers comparing the new iPhones to competitors like the Samsung Galaxy S23 or the Asus Zenfone 10, these iPhones are in a similar range, size-wise. Now, iPhone buyers have more choice within two form factors: the manageable 6.1-inch models and the more immersive 6.7-inch models, catering to those who prefer either ease of handling or a larger screen for media consumption.

iPhone 15 Pro Models vs. iPhone 14 Pro Models
The iPhone 15 Pro series has a key distinction from its predecessor, the iPhone 14 Pro series, due to the integration of titanium in the frame. This change has reduced the weight by 19 grams in both Pro models, a noticeable improvement for users who value portability. Here’s how the Pro models stack up against last year’s versions:
- iPhone 15 Pro vs. iPhone 14 Pro
- iPhone 15 Pro Dimensions: 5.77 x 2.78 x 0.32 inches (146.6 x 70.6 x 8.25 mm), Weight: 6.60 oz (187 g)

The slight reduction in thickness and weight on the 15 Pro enhances usability without compromising durability, thanks to titanium’s strength.
- iPhone 15 Pro Max vs. iPhone 14 Pro Max

Similar to the Pro, the Pro Max has shed 19 grams, making it slightly easier to handle for those who favor large displays. Although the physical dimensions between the iPhone 14 Pro Max and iPhone 15 Pro Max are very close, the weight reduction stands out as the key update, likely due to titanium’s lighter profile.
In summary, Apple’s iPhone 15 series brings users refined options in both weight and size, without drastic changes to the form factor. Whether you’re opting for the compact yet functional iPhone 15 or the feature-rich iPhone 15 Pro Max, each model caters to different user preferences while delivering consistent improvements in weight and material quality across the lineup
