As time goes on, users also have a greater demand for larger phone storage.
After all, now a WeChat occupies a lot of storage space, plus some commonly used applications, 128GB of storage space will basically be a little stretched.
And for Apple, which has always been picky in storage, the price difference between different levels of the iPhone is indeed a big expense.
Last year, Apple adjusted the storage tier specifications for the iPhone 15 Pro Max models for the first time, starting with a larger 256GB.
Coupled with the quadruple reflective prism design, the iPhone 15 Pro Max also became the best-selling smartphone in China in October last year.

Perhaps because of this, over the years, users have been calling for the iPhone to start with a standard 256GB storage range.
And judging from the latest news that has been exposed recently, this expectation is expected to be fulfilled in the upcoming iPhone 16 series.
According to sources @Leaksapplepro, Apple will release the iPhone 16 series in September this year and make adjustments to the storage specifications of the Pro series models.
To put it simply, the iPhone 16 Pro models will start at 256GB, which is the same as the previous Pro Max model.
At the same time, the iPhone 16 Pro will also be priced at the same price as the previous model, which will remain at $999.
If the news is true, taking into account factors such as the exchange rate of the Bank of China, it is expected that the price of the iPhone 16 Pro will be 7999 yuan, which is a "increase in volume without price increase".

Based on past experience, @Leaksapplepro has a good track record in terms of the accuracy of revelations.
Back in the first half of 2023, he had accurately predicted the date of Apple's first fall conference in 2023.
In short, with the new Pro models ushering in the starting storage bracket, I believe you don't need to worry about which storage version to choose.
If nothing else, the standard iPhone will be followed by similar adjustments, and 256GB will become the new standard.
In addition to the tweaks in the storage specifications of the new iPhone, it seems that Apple will also bring better imaging performance to the next iPhone.
According to a recent revelation on the Naver blog by a source @yeux1122, Apple is considering introducing a new "ALD" technology into the camera lens manufacturing process of the new iPhone.
ALD technology, also known as atomic layer deposition, is a coating technology based on thin film deposition.
When it comes to mobile phone lenses specifically, the ALD process can be used to spray an anti-reflective coating to help reduce flare during photography.

For example, when the sun or other strong light source shines directly on the lens, distortion may appear in the final image that affects the effect.
According to @yeux1122, this technology will be introduced in the iPhone 16 Pro series as soon as possible, and may become one of the main features of the new Pro series models.
If nothing else, the iPhone 16 series will be officially released in September this year, so let's look forward to it.
That's it for the main revelations about the iPhone 16 series recently.
