The fact that you will soon be able to use your iPhone to capture those clips and then go back and watch them later on your Vision Pros, will make it feel like you just walked into one of those amazing “ reach out and touch someone” AT&T phone commercials from the 1980s. It was truly like reliving an actual moment. When I moved my head from side to side the space changed, as did the angles I could see. In a demo, I watched a clip of a kids birthday party that felt like I was actually there. Earlier this year I had the chance to try out the Apple Vision Pro, which blew me away on so many levels (more on that at a later date) one of the most impressive new features was spatial videos. The company introduced a new way of capturing moments called “ spatial video,” which can record video in what feels like 3D. That being said, perhaps the biggest feature of the new iPhone though is one that we all won’t be able to even take advantage of, or see, until sometime next year. If that stuff doesn’t matter to you, then stick with your old phone. Then there’s the camera, which now has the equivalent of “seven lenses.” These upgraded lenses include a macro camera and a whole range of zooms-up to five-times depending which model of the new phone that you get. Which translates to Apple taking on other game consoles from Microsoft, Sony, and Nintendo. Throw in a Backbone controller, and voilà, your phone is now a handheld game console. ![]() In a practical sense, this means you will be able to play more graphic-intensive video games, like Assassin’s Creed Mirage or Resident Evil Village. For example, the iPhone 15 Pro comes with a new A17 Pro, the industry’s first 3-nanometer chip, the science of which means nothing to us mere mortals, but which translates to faster speeds, higher graphical performance, and better battery life. There are definitely new features that are worth the jump for a lot of people. This design philosophy might only truly change when technology takes a significant leap forward, perhaps to the point where we have Apple computer chips embedded directly in our brains. As we anticipate future models, it wouldn’t be surprising if the iPhone 16, 17, and several subsequent versions after that continue to bear strong resemblances to their predecessors. It’s not about reinvention anymore, but now about honing a signature style. I’d venture to say that the iPhone’s design, much like the consistent shape of the Coca-Cola bottle since 1915 or the minimal changes to the Porsche 911’s form since 1963, has seemingly reached a pinnacle. However, these innovations, while futuristic and gimmicky (and also give me anxiety that I’m going to break something while answering a text message), simply don’t feel like directions Apple would ever go in. Sure, Apple could venture into producing foldable or sliding screens, emulating the designs of the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold or the TCL Slider. It’s largely due to the current design philosophy at Apple, which is less “let’s change it for the sake of changing it” and more “we think this is perfect and we ain’t changing…” You get the point. First, it’s important to understand why the last four iPhones look like quadruplets. Which means many people are asking themselves (and a lot of people have been asking me): Do I really need to upgrade to something that looks almost exactly like the thing I just got last year? My answer is, yes and no. In fact, I’d venture to say that if someone were to emerge from a 15-year coma, after getting over the shock of our last president, if you handed them the last half dozen iPhones, they might assume that these phones were all launched simultaneously. The most notable design variations being the larger camera, a more refined screen resolution, and weight changes. A design that is almost indistinguishable from the one before it and the one before that and so on. At a cursory glance, the iPhone 15 seems remarkably similar to its predecessors, the iPhone 14, iPhone 13, and the iPhone 12. ![]() In many respects, the recent release of the iPhone 15 underscores a consistent theme we’ve observed in Apple’s design philosophy over the past few years.
