Apple recently launched its latest iPhone and iPhone Pro models, but the tech community is already buzzing with anticipation for what’s next.

It’s widely speculated that Apple will unveil the iPhone 16 in September, alongside the highly anticipated iOS 18 update, touted to be one of Apple’s most significant software updates to date. Here’s a roundup of everything we know so far about the iPhone 16 series:

Design:

According to reports from MacRumors, Apple is considering a design overhaul for the iPhone 16 Pro series. This could involve increasing the screen sizes to 6.3 inches for the iPhone 16 Pro and 6.9 inches for the iPhone 16 Pro Max, marking the first size increment in recent years. Leaked renders also suggest redesigned camera islands for the non-pro models, with vertically aligned rear cameras enclosed in a pill-shaped housing. There’s speculation about unifying volume buttons and integrating the Action button from the Pro variants.

Specs:

While the Pro models may see size increases, the base iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus are expected to maintain the same dimensions and 60Hz displays. Reports hint at the introduction of the new A17 chip for the base models, possibly a slower version of the A17 Pro chips powering the iPhone 15 Pro variants. Stacked battery technology is rumored, promising improved battery life, along with a potential increase in charging speed to 40W.

Camera:

The iPhone 16 is likely to feature a dual-camera setup, while the Pro models may boast a triple-camera configuration. Speculations suggest a new 48MP ultrawide sensor for the Pro models and an improved eight-part hybrid lens for the Pro Max, enhancing low-light and nighttime photography. There’s also talk of the 5x telephoto lens from the iPhone 15 Pro Max making its way to the iPhone 16 Pro.

Software:

iOS 18 is expected to bring significant changes, potentially introducing a VisionOS-like design with rounded icons and generative AI features. Reports indicate additional customization options, with Apple reportedly developing its own large language model to power Siri or run on the device itself. Stock apps like Mail and Notes are rumored to receive generative AI-powered features for summarizing and translating content.

Price:

While there’s speculation about a potential price increase for the iPhone 16 lineup, official details are yet to be confirmed. Apple enthusiasts will have to wait until September to find out the exact pricing details for the next iPhone iteration.
