iPhone 15 Plus
If you’re referring to the name displayed in Settings>General>About>Name, it likely inherited that from the device or backup you transferred your data from to the new phone. You can change it to whatever you want.
Where are you seeing the name? And are you sure it is a 15 Plus? Open Settings App > General > About
What is the model shown?
In the same area, you should see a name field at the top. If is shows iPhone 13+ at the top, tap the > and edit the name. Did you previously have an iPhone 13+ and you restored the backup from that iPhone to the new phone? If you did, the name likely came over in the restore process from your backup.
I know that i can change it but my question was why was that in there in the first place!
shouldn’t it be iphone 15 plus or just iphone.
why iphone 13+.
i even factory rebooted it still it was same iphone 13+
My guess is it wasn't prepared properly for you as the new user on the iPhone. You said it was factory reset, but I think not properly. It doesn't matter much if everything is working as you expect on the phone. Just change the name to whatever you want it to be.
What is the model number at: Settings - General - About - Model = ???
I didn’t transfer any kind of data, using it as a new phone.
Iphone 15 plus

Then where are you seeing the reference to an iPhone 13?
I didn’t transferred any kind of data because i was using an android,
so using this iphone as my secondary phone. And I didn’t change the name from settings
Simply change that name to anything you wish.
So how do you do that?

Tap on the arrow at the right of the name.
Why is my iPhone 15 Plus listed as a 13 Plus?
