Black Friday can be a gold mine for getting your hands on various items at discount prices, and this year is set to be no different. Brands and retailers have already started putting a number of early Black Friday deals, so customers don’t have to wait until November 24 to grab a bargain.
For those looking to upgrade their phone, there's plenty of offers already available - including Apple iPhones - as listed by Which?. With the latest version - iPhone 15 - being released in September, previous devices have been lowered in price.
For those well-versed in using Apple’s camera feature, the entire iPhone 15 series is expected to receive a 48-megapixel main camera. According to Bloomberg, the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max are set to have new ultrawide and zoom lenses.
Users can also expect a boost in battery juice, with the iPhone 15 range to also come with an upgraded microchip - the A17 bionic. The iPhone 15 is understood to have a 15 per cent boost to its battery capacity too.
Another feature is that the iPhone’s ring/silent switch is rumoured to be replaced by a programmable “action” button on the iPhone 15 Pro models, according to the publication. A new app to come with the phone is a journal, which Apple described as a “new app to write and remember”, The Telegraph reported.
According to MacWorld, the current prices for the iPhone 15, 15 Plus and 15 Pro range between £799 to £1,599. Mobile Phones Direct is flogging the iPhone 15 with 128GB of storage for £799 (SIM Free), or you can purchase various pay monthly plans.
