Reply to comment by manorwomanhuman in A17 chip for iPhone 15 may focus more on battery life than power, suggests report by MicroSofty88

The 3-year redesign cycle ended with the 14. The 15 is likely to be different.

They'll almost certainly keep flat sides, it won't fold... what can they really change that would be considered more different than 13 to 14 changes (colors and camera module size/layout)? Design is pretty stagnant, and that's fine.

I'll join you in hoping, but I wouldn't consider it a design change (focused on aesthetics and construction).

Actually, now that I think of it, a change to more exotic materials for weight savings (titanium, composites) would be a possible next step that would be notable but still the basic candy-bar shape.
