The iPhone 15 Pro keeps the 3X optical zoom, while the iPhone 15 Pro Max gets a 5X telephoto lens. The sensor is now 25% larger. This is a huge improvement for iPhone photographers.

On the iPhone 15 Pro model, Apple is substituting an "action button" for the mute switch. When customers tap it, they have a variety of options in addition to the ability to switch between their ringer and silence. For instance, someone can press the button to begin recording a voice memo.
