We still don’t know if it will finally be called iPhone 15 Pro Ultra or iPhone 15 Pro Max, but the volume of leaks about the future top of the range of those from Cupertino will lead, one more year, to the fact that when its presentation takes place, next September, Apple will no longer have any surprises to give us. It is true that this makes the presentations less surprising, of course, but on the other hand it keeps our curiosity well fed throughout the year, which is welcome.
In mid-March we gave an extensive review of the news that we expect in the entire iPhone 15 family, based on the rumors and leaks that had already occurred up to that moment, but this is moving so fast that, shortly after, we learned that some problems in the execution of one of the most important design novelties, the elimination of the physical buttons, had been canceled for this generation, although it seems that the plans go through recover it for the top of the range of the next generation.
Although the subject of leaks tends to generate a lot of suspicion (and on more than one occasion it is with good reason), the truth is that there are many, many parties involved in the production process of a smartphone like the iPhone 15 Pro Ultra, so that it is quite difficult to maintain total secrecy that it extends throughout the supply chain, which is the origin of much of this unofficial information but quite reliable on many occasions.

And what is the latest that unofficial information tells us? Well, it comes from Ice Universe, a well-known and quite reliable leaker, who has published a tweet with a picture showing that the thickness of the bezel of the iPhone 15 Pro Ultra is really minusculeto the point that it could become the smallest on the market to date, one more element of its design that would confirm that we will find ourselves with a new leap upwards in the definition of the top of the range in the smartphone sector.
The iPhone 14 Pro has a 2.17-millimeter bezel, while the Xiaomi 13, which can currently boast of having the thinnest on the market, is 1.81 millimeters. However, if what is indicated by Ice Universe is confirmed, the Iphone 15 Pro Ultra could lower this mark, thus scoring the gold medal in this field. Also, according to another previous leak, which is confirmed by the images in the tweet, the bezels will also be curved compared to the iPhone 14 Pro Max, giving it a closer look to the Apple Watch.
