All You Need to Know About iPhone 16 & iPhone 16 Pro
Features on the iPhone 16 & iPhone 16 Pro: What’s New
1. Larger Displays and Mighty New A18 Chip
The iPhone 16 Pro features a 6.3-inch display, while the iPhone 16 Pro Max boasts a larger 6.9-inch screen, surpassing the previous models‘ 6.1-inch and 6.7-inch displays.
Apple highlighted that these new models feature the “thinnest borders on any Apple product,” and described them as offering “our best iPhone displays yet.”
These new Pro models are powered by the A18 Pro chip, which features second-generation 3-nanometer transistors and a 16-core neural engine.
This chip, specifically designed for generative AI tasks, increases total system memory bandwidth by 17% and is “even faster and more efficient than A18,” according to Apple.
2. Fresh New Colours, Powerful Titanium
Apple has taken a bold approach with some of the most vibrant shades yet for the iPhone 16 lineup, particularly the hot Pink iPhone.
There are also choices like Ultramarine Blue and a subtle Teal Green. For those who prefer the classics, Black and White are still available.
The Pro models feature a more eye-catching design, with Desert Titanium giving the brushed metal a bronze-like appearance.
For a more understated look, the Pro versions also come in Black, White, and Natural Titanium, all equally striking.
The use of titanium makes them nearly half the weight of stainless steel and more resistant to scratches than other titanium products.
3. Enhanced Camera with Fusion Camera & Camera Control
The A18 Pro chip also enables advanced camera capabilities, including a new 48-megapixel “fusion camera” that processes data twice as fast, and a 48-megapixel ultrawide camera for enhanced detail in wide-angle shots.
The 5x telephoto camera offers improved clarity for zoomed-in photos.
For video, Apple has introduced 4K capture at 120 frames per second, the highest resolution and frame rate available on an iPhone to date.
The Pro models are also equipped with four “studio-quality” microphones with noise reduction, designed for vocal and acoustic recordings.
The phones also support spatial audio capture. A new Audio Mix feature, which Apple describes as an “industry first,” utilizes machine learning to separate background noise from the user’s voice.
Beneath the power button, there’s a new tactile feature called Camera Control. This innovative sensor lets you manage the camera with just a few gentle taps.
A quick tap launches the Camera app, while additional light touches allow you to fine-tune the composition. You can zoom in on your subject, tweak the exposure, or adjust the depth of field.
What makes Camera Control even more exciting is that it will soon be available for use in third-party apps.
4. Siri Gets an Upgrade with Apple Intelligence
Siri has finally received its much-anticipated update, making it smarter than ever.
With the help of Apple Intelligence, Siri now has a deeper understanding of language and can maintain context across multiple user requests. It can even keep up if you fumble over your words.
Additionally, Siri offers more detailed product knowledge to assist with shopping for Apple devices.
Apple Intelligence also introduces several other features, including enhanced Writing Tools for text editing, call recordings in the Phone app, notification summaries, and Private Cloud Compute to boost the device’s processing power.
