The iPhone 15 series will purportedly incorporate a new ultrawide-band chip that will make finding the handsets with the Find My application more precise.
Named U2, the chip will probably advance toward numerous other Apple items over the long haul.
The U2 chip will determine whether the iPhone 15 is “with or without you.”
The U1 chip enabled ultra-wideband support for the first time on the iPhone 11. When the two devices are in close proximity, UWB allows one iPhone to locate the other. Apple AirTag item trackers also use it.
This is the technology that enables the Find My App to display an arrow that directly points to a lost item and accurately report how many feet away it is.
After four years, it’s as far as anyone knows time for the U2 chip to supplant the first one.
According to Bloomberg, “the new component is expected to improve location capabilities, making it possible for people and devices to be tracked in the Find My app with greater accuracy.”
With the ongoing U1 chip, following a gadget is genuinely short reach — covering about a portion of a little house. It’s possible that the U2 will extend the range at which two devices can communicate with one another. Additionally, the Find My app is inaccurate at distances of less than a few feet.
All bloomberg likewise said Friday, “Apple intends to add this chip to the following renditions of its significant items.” This suggests the creation of an AirTag 2. Additionally, the most recent location technology is likely to be included in the upcoming Vision Pro headset.
We have heard of improved UWB chips in the iPhone 15 series before. In June, initial word got out.

Apple is almost certainly going to announce the iPhone 15 and 15 Pro at the Wonderlust event on September 12. As a result, we shouldn’t have to wait long to learn more about the U2 processor.
The end of the Lightning port, which Apple will replace with USB-C to comply with EU regulations, is another change that can be expected in the upcoming smartphones. Besides, Apple clearly plans to carry the Unique Island to standard iPhones.
