As September 12 approaches, excitement for the iPhone 15 series increases. While the giant event for the launch day is so close, more information about the iPhone 15 series is emerging and analysts are making more predictions. Now, the rumors about the iPhone 15 Pro Max, which will be introduced at the “Wonderlust” event, constitute sad news for users who are eagerly waiting for the phone.
The storage of the iPhone 15 Pro Max may upset despite its price
The iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max are scheduled to be announced in less than a week, and rumors suggest Apple is planning a $100 price increase. Although it was thought that Apple would compensate for this price increase by increasing the basic storage space from 128 GB to 256 GB or higher, it turned out that things may not be so.

In a newly revealed research note, TrendForce analysts say that the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max will be available with the same 128 GB storage as the iPhone 14 Pro series. Interestingly, the report claims that the price of the iPhone 15 Pro will remain unchanged from the iPhone 14 Pro at $999. On the other hand, he mentions that the iPhone 15 Pro Max will see a price increase of $ 100 and will be available for $ 1199.
This contradicts other reports suggesting that both the iPhone 15 Pro and its bigger brother will see price increases this year. Regardless, TrendForce says that despite any price changes, both models will have 128 GB of storage.
They also claim that storage options will increase to a maximum of 1TB, contradicting previous rumors that said the iPhone 15 Pro would be available in a new 2TB configuration this year. Other analyst reports attributed the price increase to two main factors, the new titanium case and the periscope camera.
TrendForce also mentions that the iPhone 15 Pro models will include 8 GB of RAM instead of 6 GB of RAM on the iPhone 14 Pro. If you were hoping Apple would double the base storage to 256GB, it looks like that might be wishful thinking (at least based on this report). We will learn the truth of all this in a very short time.
