【phoneauto News】The iPhone 15 is undoubtedly one of the most popular new phones right now, and it has been launched in markets around the world. So, do you know the difference between the iPhone 15 Chinese version and the US version? According to phoneauto, a consumer content platform, a netizen recently summarized four “crippled” features of the iPhone 15 Chinese version compared to the US version. I wonder if you agree?

According to the netizen, the Chinese version of the iPhone 15 only supports the Sub-6 frequency band and does not support 5G mmWave, while the US version supports both. They believe that many people use their iPhones for several years, so this “crippling” is likely to affect their user experience.

• Huawei explains the reasons for the slower network speed of certain 5G mobile phones the situation is quite complex
• The Xiaomi 14 series is the first to be equipped with MIUI 15! Leica color adjustment also has a new upgrade
• Li Nan Foldable phones are not just a gimmick, Apple will eventually make them and won’t be able to resist

In fact, as early as the iPhone 14, Apple introduced satellite communication functionality. However, Apple’s satellite communication is based on satellite communication service providers in North America and other places, which cannot be realized in China. The netizen said that Apple did not reach a cooperation with domestic satellite communication service providers, so they simply disabled this feature, but many people in China need it.

It is reported that the Chinese version of the iPhone 15 series only supports WiFi-6, while the US version supports WiFi-6E, which adds support for the 6GHz frequency band. The netizen said that phones that support WiFi-6E can achieve a theoretical maximum speed of 3.6Gbps.

The netizen also mentioned that the US version of the iPhone 15 series supports a physical SIM card + eSIM card, while the Chinese version supports two physical SIM cards and cancels the eSIM function.

Finally, the netizen concluded that among the above features, mmWave, satellite communication, and WiFi-6E are still quite useful, and as for the eSIM card feature, it is not important in China because it is not supported by the carriers.

Phoneauto noticed that netizens have different opinions after reading it. Some people believe that these cannot be used in China, so how can they be considered “castration”? However, some people also expressed that if you don’t support it, it’s fine, but the phone should not lack functionality.
