Apple and the Environment
We’re committed to making our products without taking from the earth, and to becoming carbon neutral across our entire business, including our products, by 2030.
* To identify your iPhone model number, see support.apple.com/en-au/HT3939. For details on 5G and LTE support, contact your carrier and see apple.com/au/iphone/cellular. Mobile technology support is based on iPhone model number and configuration for GSM networks.
Available space is less and varies due to many factors. A standard configuration uses approximately 12GB to 17GB of space, including iOS 18 with its latest features and Apple apps that can be deleted. Apple apps that can be deleted use about 4.5GB of space, and you can reinstall them from the App Store. Storage capacity subject to change based on software version, settings and iPhone model.
Size and weight vary by configuration and manufacturing process.
iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus are splash-, water- and dust-resistant, and were tested under controlled laboratory conditions with a rating of IP68 under IEC standard 60529 (maximum depth of 6 metres for up to 30 minutes). Splash, water and dust resistance are not permanent conditions. Resistance might decrease as a result of normal wear. Do not attempt to charge a wet iPhone; refer to the user guide for cleaning and drying instructions. Liquid damage is not covered under warranty but you might have rights under consumer law.
Available only in selected cities and public transport networks. Requires eligible device and OS version. See here for details.
Service is included for free for two years with the activation of any iPhone 14 or later model. Sharing your location via satellite isn’t available in all countries or regions. See support.apple.com/en-au/HT213885 for more information.
iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Pro can detect a severe car crash and call for help. Requires a mobile network connection or Wi‑Fi calling.
Data plan required. 5G, Gigabit LTE, VoLTE and Wi-Fi calling are available in selected markets and through selected carriers. Speeds are based on theoretical throughput and vary based on site conditions and carrier. For details on 5G and LTE support, contact your carrier and see apple.com/au/iphone/cellular.
Ultra Wideband availability varies by region.
FaceTime calling requires a FaceTime‑enabled device for the caller and recipient, and a Wi‑Fi connection. Availability over a mobile network depends on carrier policies; data charges may apply.
Standard dynamic range video content only.
Siri may not be available in all languages or in all areas, and features may vary by area. Internet access required. Mobile data charges may apply.
All battery claims depend on network configuration and many other factors; actual results will vary. Battery has limited recharge cycles and may eventually need to be replaced. Battery life and charge cycles vary by use and settings. See apple.com/au/batteries and apple.com/au/iphone/battery for more information.
Wireless chargers sold separately.
Testing conducted by Apple in August 2023 using preproduction iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus units and software, and accessory Apple USB‑C Power Adapter (20W Model A2305). Fast‑charge testing conducted with drained iPhone units. Charge time varies with settings and environmental factors; actual results will vary.
Use of an eSIM requires a carrier that supports eSIM and a wireless service plan (which may include restrictions on switching service providers and roaming, even after contract expiration). See your carrier for details. To learn more, visit apple.com/esim.
Wireless broadband recommended; fees may apply.
In China (mainland), you can use Apple Pay on the web in Safari only on compatible iPhone and iPad models using iOS 11.2 or later.
Data is accurate as of product launch.
Product recycled or renewable content is the mass of certified recycled material relative to the overall mass of the device, not including packaging or in-box accessories.
Carbon reductions are calculated against a baseline scenario: 1) No use of clean electricity for manufacturing or product use, beyond what is already available on the grid (based on regional emissions factors). 2) Apple’s carbon intensity of key materials as of 2015 (our baseline year for our 2030 product carbon neutrality goal). Carbon intensity of materials reflects use of recycled content and production technology. 3) Apple’s average mix of transportation modes (air, rail, ocean, ground) by product line across three years (fiscal years 2017 to 2019) to best capture the baseline transportation emissions of our products.
We estimate the percentage of electricity-related emissions in our manufacturing that is sourced from clean electricity by attributing to our carbon model clean energy procured by our suppliers in the prior fiscal year, based on the supplier manufacturing allocations at time of product launch. Included in this number is only clean electricity that Apple or its suppliers have procured as part of Apple’s Supplier Clean Energy Program.
On a mass balance allocation.
Excludes trace amount of rare earth elements found outside of the magnets.
Efficiency performance is based on the US Department of Energy Federal Energy Conservation Standards for Battery Chargers.
Apple’s Regulated Substances Specification describes Apple’s restrictions on the use of certain chemical substances in materials in Apple products, accessories, manufacturing processes and packaging used for shipping products to Apple’s end‑customers. Restrictions are derived from international laws or directives, regulatory agencies, eco‑label requirements, environmental standards and Apple policies. Every Apple product is free of PVC and phthalates except for AC power cords in India, Thailand (for two‑prong AC power cords) and South Korea, where we continue to seek government approval for our PVC and phthalates replacement. Apple products comply with the European Union Directive 2011/65/EU and its amendments, including exemptions for the use of lead such as high-temperature solder. Apple is working to phase out the use of these exempted substances for new products where technically possible.
Breakdown of US retail packaging by weight. Adhesives, inks and coatings are excluded from our calculations of plastic content and packaging weight.
Responsible sourcing of wood fibre is defined in Apple’s Responsible Fiber Specification. We consider wood fibres to include bamboo.
