Apple Event 2023
In a significant move, Apple is set to launch its new iPhone 15 series, including the iPhone 15, iPhone 15 Plus, iPhone 15 Pro, and iPhone 15 Pro Max, during its much-anticipated event. This event, broadcast live from the company’s Cupertino headquarters at 10:30 PM Indian Standard Time, is expected to unveil various major launches, including Apple AirPods and new-generation watches.
According to the Urban Dictionary, the word “wonderlust” means “the desire to stay in a constant state of wonder.” It appears that under Tim Cook’s leadership, Apple aims to keep its users in a constant state of wonder with all the new releases planned for this year.
During the event, Apple will also announce official release dates for Apple iOS 17, iPadOS 17, watchOS 10, and tvOS 17, which were unveiled at the company’s WWDC 23 event in June this year. Apple’s September event is typically reserved for major hardware launches, including the latest iPhone lineup.
As per Bloomberg’s report, Apple plans to make the Made-in-India iPhone 15 available in India and select other regions on the day of its launch. While most iPhone 15 units will come from China, it will be the first time that the latest-generation iPhone, assembled in India, will be available on the first day of sale.
Furthermore, Apple seems likely to stick to its traditional nomenclature, with the iPhone 15 Pro Max continuing to be the flagship in the lineup. Despite this, Apple always leaves room for unexpected announcements during its events, so we might see surprises along the way.
Mark Gurman from Bloomberg suggests that Apple is prepared to stick to its recent tradition of presenting four models in its upcoming lineup: iPhone 15, 15 Plus, 15 Pro, and 15 Pro Max, instead of opting for an “Ultra” subname, as previously speculated.
Apple is exploring the use of 3D printers to prepare the steel chassis for some of its upcoming smartwatches. This marks a significant change in the company’s manufacturing processes, potentially reducing production time and contributing to environmental conservation by using fewer materials.
The expected dimensions for the iPhone 15 Pro are as follows:
- Thickness: 8.25mm
- Weight: 188 grams
- Width: 70.6mm
- Length: 146.6mm
Compared to the previous model, the new iPhone 15 Pro is expected to be 18 grams lighter and slightly thicker, with a thickness of 8.25mm, as opposed to the previous 7.85mm.
The iPhone 15 Pro Max is expected to have the following dimensions:
- Length: 160.7mm
- Width: 77.6mm
- Weight: 240 grams
Similarly, the iPhone 15 Pro Max could be 19 grams lighter than the iPhone 14 Pro Max. However, it’s worth noting that these are preliminary production details and might not necessarily reflect the final hardware of the production units on a larger scale.

Here are five things you might not know about iPhones, from their codenames to last-minute display changes, revealing intriguing details about these iconic devices.
It’s expected that Apple will announce official prices for the new iPhones during its event today. While prices for the base models are expected to remain the same, the starting price for the new iPhones in India could be around ₹79,900.
In line with last year’s pricing, the iPhone 15 could start at ₹79,900 in India, while the iPhone 15 Plus range might begin at ₹89,900.
According to a cellular survey, 63% of iPhone users said that their decision to upgrade to the iPhone 15 would be influenced by Apple’s USB-C charging port. Additionally, 37% of motivated buyers stated they would upgrade to a single charging cable for their iPhone, Mac, and iPad.
Apple’s supplier Foxconn is set to begin shipping the Made-in-India iPhone 15 a few weeks after the start of smartphone production in Chinese factories. This expansion of assembly in India will assist Apple in reducing its reliance on Chinese manufacturing.
Apple Event 2023 Live Update: Key Points to Watch Out For
From the launch of the iPhone 15 to the release schedule of iOS 17, today’s Apple Event promises to reveal many significant developments. Stay tuned for updates on Apple’s patented matte black finish technology, which might find its way into future iPhones, smartwatches, tablets, and laptops.
The patent notably describes a unique method that incorporates special features and blended color particles into anodized surfaces. Apple’s aim is to achieve a true black color rather than deep blues or grays.
While some speculated an increase in the price of the iPhone 15 Pro due to improved RAM, recent reports suggest that the starting price will remain at $999.
It was previously suggested that Apple might consider rebranding the iPhone 15 Pro Max with the “Ultra” label due to the inclusion of the USB-C charging port, but it seems that this change will not happen, at least for this year.
To watch Apple’s exclusive event, the primary method is through the Apple TV app. Although the event listing is currently unavailable on the TV app, Apple typically adds it on the day of the event. Therefore, checking for it on the event day is crucial. Additionally, the Apple TV app is available on various devices, ensuring you can tune in using your favorite streaming device.
