Unveiling Apple's Most Expensive iPhone Yet: Anticipated Features And Innovations In The New iPhone Ultra

Rumors are circulating in the tech market regarding the speculated launch of the new iPhone Ultra, anticipated to be a supercharged version of the iPhone 15 Pro Max.
The iPhone 15 Pro Max comes with a higher price tag than its predecessor in the US and Australia, which could potentially impact loyal iPhone enthusiasts.
Contrary to rumors, the iPhone 15 Pro has a maximum internal storage of 1TB, leaving room for a model with even more storage. Although initial speculations about solid-state volume and power buttons for the iPhone 15 Pro Max didn't materialize, these features could be reserved for a possible Ultra model.
Speculations also suggest a dual-lens front-facing camera for the Ultra variant.
An anticipated iPhone 15 Ultra could boast improved performance, potentially housing an M-series chip, increased RAM, and advanced capabilities for capturing 'Spatial' content compatible with the Apple Vision Pro mixed reality headset.
Upgraded Ultra-Wideband
- The iPhone 15 Ultra may run on an M-series chip and increased RAM.
- The chip would be better equipped to integrate with the new AR headset, Vision Pro.
