Apple revealed its highly awaited iPhone 15 early on Wednesday morning during a live event in the US. The iconic smartphone will be available in four models in a variety of different colours for pre-order from 8pm on September 15, and will be in stores in Hong Kong on September 22.

One of the biggest changes in Apple’s 15th-generation smartphones is that they will now come with USB-C charging cables, in response to European regulation requirements, allowing customers who buy the iPhone 15 and AirPods Pro to use the same charging cables used for iPads and Macs. Other highlights include a new titanium shell, a new Action button, powerful camera upgrades, and the A17 Pro chip on the Phone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max.

  • Colour-infused back glass with a textured matte finish
  • Contoured edges on the aluminium enclosure
  • Dynamic Island display
  • Advanced camera system with a powerful 48MP main camera
  • 2x Telephoto option for three optical zoom levels
