Apple enthusiasts await the forthcoming iPhone 16 lineup with mixed expectations as leaks suggest notable design modifications and feature upgrades compared to its predecessors. Here’s what’s in store:
Rear Design Refinements:
Reports indicate that Apple will introduce a significant change to the rear camera setup of the iPhone 16, opting for a pill-shaped camera island reminiscent of the iPhone X. This departure from the current square-ish design could offer a fresh visual appeal to the device.
Continuation of Full-Screen Aesthetics:
Despite the rear design overhaul, the iPhone 16 is expected to retain its full-screen aesthetics, including the Face ID cutout, and maintain the existing physical button layout.
While details about internal upgrades are scarce, speculations suggest the inclusion of the new A17 series chip and minor camera enhancements.
Enhancements for iPhone 16 Pro Models:
The iPhone 16 Pro models are anticipated to feature fewer external changes. The primary addition is a flush button on the right edge, possibly equipped with capacitive sensors for customizable functionalities resembling a camera shutter button.
Additionally, Apple may introduce a “White Titanium” color option and incorporate a tetraprism 5x telephoto zoom for the smaller Pro model and a 10x zoom camera for the Pro Max variant.
Potential Impact on Dimensions:
Internal upgrades may result in slight increases in dimensions for the iPhone 16 Pro models, with reports suggesting taller, wider, and thicker dimensions compared to their predecessors.
Despite these changes, the aesthetic profile is expected to maintain the familiar design language introduced with the iPhone 11 Pro lineup.
