Apple leaks reveal five features ‘vanishing from new iPhone 15’ and first is the ‘mute’ switch

APPLE plans to remove five popular features from its upcoming iPhone range.

The iPhone 15 is expected to launch sometime this month and will be significantly different from the iPhone 14.

According to rumors, Apple is removing a number of features from the new model.

Based on reports, we’ve detailed six tools you shouldn’t expect to see on the iPhone 15.

LIGHTNING PORT

Perhaps the most notable difference from the iPhone 15 is the Lightning port.

This is expected to be replaced by the universal USB-C port.

Most Apple products now use the USB-C port, so everything should be much more compatible.

Seven years after it was introduced on the front of the iPhone X, the notch may be disappearing for good.

This would allow the iPhone 15 to have more front screen space for the Dynamic Island feature.

One of the most iconic tools on an iPhone is the mute button that allows us to easily mute our phones.

However, Runor says this feature will now be replaced by an action button.

Presumably this button allows users to choose exactly what action they want to use it for.

Hopefully the mute feature is an option for those who still want it.

The now famous steel frame of iPhones is set to be removed from the iPhone 15 Pro models.

This change should pave the way for something even more durable and higher quality, experts say.

In fact, a new frame is also expected to make this year’s iPhone 15 Pro models around 10-20g lighter.

This may not be the biggest loss for iPhone users, but the gold iPhone will reportedly no longer be a color option.

Colors we can expect instead include Silver, Space Black, Titan Gray and Dark Blue.
