If nothing else, the new iPhone 16 series will most likely be released in September this year. Although there is still a long time before Apple's autumn new product launch event in September, there are still endless revelations about the new generation of iPhones.
According to the latest reports, the iPhone 16 series will be launched with four models, including iPhone 16, iPhone 16 Plus, iPhone 16 Pro, and iPhone 16 Pro Max. Of particular note is that the Pro version will start with 256GB of storage, a strategic adjustment that is clearly geared towards the market's demand for high-capacity storage solutions.
In terms of hardware configuration, the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus are expected to be powered by the A18 processor, while the Pro version is likely to be powered by the more advanced A18 Pro processor, which heralds a significant improvement in processing speed and energy efficiency. The display size of the new device will also be increased, with the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus expected to increase to 6.3 inches and 6.9 inches, respectively, for a more immersive visual experience.
In terms of imaging, the iPhone 16 Pro series will inherit the 48-million-pixel main camera of its predecessor, and may add an ultra-wide-angle lens with the same pixels, supporting 4K-level spatial video resolution, greatly enriching the shooting experience of users. In addition, the iPhone 16 series is expected to support high refresh rates across the lineup, which is a significant improvement for the standard version and may attract more users who were originally ready to buy the Pro version to switch to the standard version.
Despite the increased storage capacity of the iPhone 16 Pro, its price is expected to remain unchanged at $999, and the price of the Chinese version will most likely remain at $7,999. These updates will undoubtedly make the iPhone 16 series one of the most anticipated smartphones of the year.
