While Apple is all-in on the iPhone 14, trying to make all versions of the new-generation lineup as successful as possible (and not just the Pros), leakers out there are already focusing on the very next model the company is working on.

ShrimpApplePro, who has a solid track on Apple leaks, has shared what seem to be the very first design tidbits about the upcoming iPhone 15.

According to their own sources, the current design of the iPhone 15, which is obviously in an early stage so a lot could change in the coming months, employs a new border style similar to the iPhone 5C.

In other words, the back edge corner of the iPhone will no longer be square but rounded, just like on the iPhone 5C launched many years ago.

On the other hand, Apple is apparently working on making the iPhone feel even more premium, so the upcoming generation will sport a titanium case for extra durability and a more exquisite look and feel.

iPhone 14 Pro and Pro Max in hot demand

In the meantime, Apple continues to struggle with the hot demand for the Pro models but also with production struggles in China.

The company has already warned that customers who order an iPhone today might not receive it before Christmas, as the main production facility in China is facing new restrictions due to the pandemic.

“COVID-19 restrictions have temporarily impacted the primary iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max assembly facility located in Zhengzhou, China. The facility is currently operating at significantly reduced capacity. As we have done throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, we are prioritizing the health and safety of the workers in our supply chain,” Apple said.

“We continue to see strong demand for iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max models. However, we now expect lower iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max shipments than we previously anticipated and customers will experience longer wait times to receive their new products.”
