Apple doesn't make many missteps when it comes to iPhones, as the popularity of the company's smartphone would suggest. And it's even rarer for Apple to repeat a mistake when coming out with a new iPhone. Yet, rumors suggest that's exactly what Apple is about to do with the iPhone 15 when that new phone arrives in a month's time.
Think back to last year when Apple did something it had never done before with its phones — release models powered by different types of chipsets. The iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max both featured a brand new A16 Bionic system-on-chip, powering those phones to the top of most benchmark charts for mobile handsets. Meanwhile, the iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus made do with a variation on the A15 Bionic found in the previous year's phone.
