iPhone 15 Launched in Nepal With A16 Bionic chip

September is arrived, and we all know what the tech industry is talking about. Finally available, the iPhone 15 series will soon also be available in Nepal. We’ll go through the technical specifications, available features, and anticipated cost of the iPhone 15 in Nepal in this article.

iPhone 15 Overview:

Design and Display

The iPhone 15 and iPhone 14 have the same design. While the titanium frame is only available on the Pro/Pro Max siblings, the standard iPhone 15 still has a robust aerospace-grade aluminum frame. In addition, the rear panel has a matte appearance thanks to the polishing of nanocrystalline particles. You also receive an IP68 rating for defense against dust and water dribbles. Apple offers five color options for this product: Black, Blue, Green, Yellow, and Pink.

When it comes to the screen, it is the same 6.1-inch LCD as the iPhone 14 Pro. This Super Retina XDR screen features 2,000 nits of peak brightness, HDR10, Dolby Vision, FHD+ resolution (2556 x 1179 pixels), and Ceramic Shield glass protection.

Sadly, in order to catch up to the Pro siblings, the refresh rate has remained at 60Hz. This time, Dynamic Island, Apple’s “innovative” method for making the most of a notch, has arrived and was first seen in the iPhone 14 Pro Series. And with that, the enormous notch is finally over.

A16 Bionic Chip

Apple’s A16 Bionic chipset from last year is in charge at the core. Recall that Apple introduced the practice of employing outdated chips in the Plus and vanilla variants of the iPhone 14 series. The A16 Bionic still has a ton of power, even though the most recent A17 Pro SoC in the iPhone 15 Pro series is more potent.

The hexa-core architecture of this 4nm-fabbed processor includes two Everest cores running at 3.46GHz and four Sawtooth cores running at 2.0GHz. The Apple 5-core GPU is responsible for handling gaming and graphics-related workloads.

Camera

The iPhone 15 starts with the most recent version of iOS 17. Numerous enhancements and customizability choices are included in this version, including personalized caller ID, message transcription, Namedrop (contact sharing through Airdrop), StandBy Mode, and others.

Moving on to the optics, Apple still equips this basic model with a dual camera arrangement. With a 48MP sensor, the primary camera does, however, have a higher resolution this time. For quick autofocus, this quad-pixel camera offers 100% Focus Pixels. The 24MP super-high-res option, which is activated by default, is more intriguing. With this mode, Apple promises excellent image quality at a manageable file size. This basic model also has a 2X telephoto option to make up for the absence of a zoom unit.

Moving to the front, you will find a 12MP TrueDepth camera that is also a 3D face scanner for biometric security carved on Dynamic Island.

USB-C Ports and others

Apple has finally decided against including a Lightning port on the entire iPhone 15 Series since the EU has mandated a USB-C port in a variety of consumer electronics products sold in its territory. The Pro siblings have a speedier USB 3.0 connection, while the standard model only has an older, slower USB 2.0 port. Your upgraded AirPods Pro and Apple Watch can still be charged in reverse using a USB-C to USB-C connector.

Apple has, as usual, not specified the precise battery capacity of its most recent iPhones, but unauthorized third-party teardowns should soon make that information available. The iPhone 15’s wired and wireless charging speeds are still limited to 20W and 15W (through MagSafe), respectively, so there isn’t any improvement in this area.

While the phone still has accident detection, satellite connectivity, and emergency SOS functions. This time, Apple has also unveiled “Roadside Assistance,” a feature that allows cars in remote locations without cellular service to call for assistance.
