Cirrus said that a new product it was working on for this fall would not launch as planned.

Leaked image shows iPhone 15 Pro's USB-C port

With Apple needing to comply with regulatory changes in Europe, the iPhone 15 lineup is expected to adopt a USB-C port instead of Apple's standard Lightning port. Now, we're seeing what the chassis of the iPhone 15 Pro could look like, thanks to a leak on Twitter. According to the leaker, Apple plans to replace its E75 Lightning Controller with an E85 Port Controller.

It's not hard to imagine what a USB-C port will look like. But it gives a glimpse of the rumoured tweaked curves on the Apple iPhone 15 Pro. Apple is supposedly planning to transition to a titanium material instead of stainless steel. And the brushed metal look of this leaked image makes it look like a titanium finish. The entire iPhone 15 line is expected to make the USB-C switch, but the design refinements are expected only on the iPhone 15 Pro models.

Apple iPhone 15 Pro rumoured to get solid-state volume buttons

One of the latest rumours about the next iPhones has to do with its volume and power buttons. Analyst Ming-Chi Kuo claims Apple will switch out physical buttons for solid-state power and volume buttons. These will function similarly to the Touch ID sensor on the iPhone 7 or the iPhone SE (2022). It uses two additional Taptic Engines on the left and right sides of the frame. Solid-state buttons mean these won't physically sink into the device when pressed. Instead, you get haptic feedback to confirm presses. 

These new buttons will be limited to the iPhone 15 Pro, Pro Max, and Ultra models (depending on what will be launched). The standard iPhones will retain the physical buttons.
