Pretty iPhone pictures.

Those supposed CAD files of the upcoming iPhone 15 Pro published by 9to5Mac last week have been turned into more aesthetically pleasing renders by Ian Zelbo. USB-C, curvier edges, and a big boy camera bump, now in color.

Apple reportedly halted work on a custom-designed Wi-Fi chip for iPhones.

That’s according to analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, who also says the iPhone 15 will support Wi-Fi 6E. (That’s not too surprising, given the newest iPad Pros, Mac Minis, and MacBook Pros support Wi-Fi 6E, too.)

However, Apple is still working on its own combined Wi-Fi and Bluetooth chip, according to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman.

An iPhone without buttons or ports draws near.

Ming-Chi Kuo, the Apple blogosphere’s favorite analyst, says next year’s iPhone 15 models might feature solid-state volume and power buttons that mimic mechanical presses just like Mac trackpads, alongside new USB-C ports he’s mentioned before.

Any bets on when Apple will also ditch the mute switch and move to wireless charging exclusively to make the portless and buttonless iPhone of Jony Ive’s dreams?
