What is true of this model and changes how you fix it

- ChipA17 Pro.
- ConnectorUSB-C.
- Camera48MP Main.

- BluetoothBluetooth 5.3.
- Wireless chargingMagSafe wireless charging up to 15W.
- Weight6.60 ounces (187 grams).
- USB-CThe phone has a USB-C connector in place of Lightning. A USB-C cable that supports data, a wall charger of 20 watts or more and a clean port are the keys to charging and connecting.
- ConnectivityIt has Wi-Fi 6E with 2x2 MIMO and Bluetooth 5.3, so it can use the 6 gigahertz band on a Wi-Fi 6E router.
- MagSafeMagSafe wireless charging works up to 15 watts with a MagSafe charger, and Qi charging also works at lower speeds.
- Updating and restoringKeep iOS up to date, back up to iCloud or a computer before any reset and use Settings, General, Transfer or Reset iPhone to erase it.
- Finding the modelSettings, General, About shows the model name and number, the serial number and the iOS version; the model number is also in the SIM tray area on some models.
- Battery careHeat and fast charging at high charge levels age a battery faster, and Optimized Battery Charging reduces that wear.
- Titanium, and what that changesThe 15 Pro was the first iPhone with a titanium frame, which is lighter than the stainless steel on earlier Pro models but shows fingerprints at the edges and can feel warm sooner under load. A case that grips the frame helps in a cold hand, and the polished-looking finish cleans with a soft cloth only.
- The Action buttonThe mute switch was replaced by an Action button that can be set to silent mode, the camera, the flashlight, a shortcut or Voice Memos. If a phone seems to have stopped ringing, check whether the button is set to silent and whether a Focus is on before suspecting the speaker.
- USB-C and its speedThis was also the first iPhone with a USB-C port. The Pro supports the faster USB 3 data speed, but only a cable rated for it delivers that speed, so a charging-only cable that came with another device may move photos slowly even though it charges the phone.
- Before you restore a backupIf you are moving to this phone, charge both phones, update the old one and use a direct transfer or an iCloud backup made that day. A backup restored to an older iOS version will not load, so update the new phone first when it asks.
