iPhone 15 for those anticipating, there might be a delay of 3-4 weeks

Apple is gearing up to introduce its iPhone 15 lineup, with anticipation building for the next generation of its iconic smartphones. Scheduled to start shipping shortly after their announcement, there is a potential hiccup in the release timeline, particularly for the highest-end variant, the iPhone 15 Pro Max. An inside source has hinted at production challenges faced by Sony, Apple's camera component supplier. Sony's potential inability to timely produce the image sensor intended for the Pro Max might delay its release.

The buzz is largely around the iPhone 15 Pro Max's camera system, which is anticipated to be a significant leap forward. This model is slated to have a periscope lens system, pushing past the current optical zoom limitation of 3x. In contrast, its sibling, the iPhone 15 Pro, won't be getting this lens enhancement. The iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus will feature only ultra-wide and wide cameras.

Apple's announcement is set for September 12, with pre-orders expected to commence on September 15. The iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus should be reaching customers by September 22. Yet, the iPhone 15 Pro Max might witness a shipping delay of up to a month, placing its delivery window between October 6 and October 13.

Historically, Apple has experienced such staggered release schedules. Notably, the iPhone XR followed the iPhone XS's release, the iPhone 14 Plus arrived post the iPhone 14, and both the iPhone 12 mini and iPhone 12 Pro Max were available weeks after the iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 Pro.

The iPhone 15 series promises other noteworthy changes beyond its camera system. A shift from the Lightning port to USB-C is expected. The standard models are believed to be adopting a new "Dynamic Island" design. As for the Pro variants, rumors suggest the incorporation of a titanium frame and a replacement of the conventional mute switch with a programmable button.
