APPLE fans a getting ready for the new iPhone line-up landing in stores later this year.
Despite the launch still being months away, rumours are swirling online.
The biggest potential insight into Apple’s upcoming line-up is the cost
The launch is expected to land around September, as per Apple’s usual release schedule.
But a reporter for Forbes has picked up on a suspected ‘leak’ via popular Chinese messenger app Weibo.
As per the alleged leak, the standard and Plus variants of the iPhone 15 will adopt the Dynamic Island and the triple-camera spread.
The so-called Dynamic Island can display notifications for Apple Pay transactions, low battery warnings, AirDrop transfers, and privacy indicators
But the biggest potential insight into Apple’s upcoming line-up is the cost.
The most basic model is thought to start at $799, with the Pro model starting at $1,099.
The leaker has also forecast the Plus to start at $899 and the iPhone 15 Ultra at an eyewatering $1,199.
Beyond the iPhones, Apple fans are buzzing for the release of the new models of AirPods.
While the tech company is notoriously tight-lipped as to the details – a couple of watchful analysts are expecting big price moves.
The new range is forecast to land in stores in the second half of next year – or the beginning of 2025.
Apple supply chain analyst Ming-Chi Kuo said the company is likely aiming for a price of $99 for its second-generation AirPods – its cheapest price yet.
The cost would be a major upgrade from their current price tag of $129.
Analyst Jeff Pu has also predicted that the AirPods will be subject to a price cut in the upcoming line-up.
Pu is anticipating two key products from Apple in 2024, including the lower-priced AirPods and the first Apple Watch with a micro-LED display.
If the rumours are true, the cheaper earphones, which Pu referred to as ‘AirPods Lite’, could be Apple’s attempt of keeping up with competitors.
The economic climate is pinching at the purse strings of many.
Which means stiff competition among the consumer electronics companies.
