Do the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Pro look similar?

According to iPhone 15 leaks, the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Pro were set to look pretty similar, sharing frosted glass back, Dynamic Island and much more. But now that the iPhone 15 range is on the market, are the two models similar in design?

Rumours suggested that both the iPhone 15 and 15 Pro models would have a frosted glass back for the first time ever. The iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus have a frosted aluminium back with colour-infused glass. The iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max, however, have a titanium back with matt glass. While they're both frosted and matt, they still look pretty different in our opinion – especially due to the completely different colour palettes available.

Along with the same frosted glass back, another iPhone 15 design leak claimed that all the models in the iPhone 15 series would come with the Dynamic Island. This rumour was indeed true, as all iPhone 15 models offer the Dynamic Island, making all the models look somewhat similar.

While it isn't as obvious as the glass back or Dynamic Island, the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Pro also share the same 48MP main camera – another iPhone 15 rumour which turned out to be true.

While there are a few visual similarities between the models, there are still plenty of differences that set them apart – plus, the power and performance are in different ball parks.
