iPhone 16

Design & Screen

The iPhone 16 introduces a vibrant new look, crafted from aerospace-grade aluminium with a colour-infused back glass that delivers rich, eye-catching hues. This design isn't just about aesthetics; it’s built for durability, featuring industry-leading water and dust resistance along with an advanced ceramic shield that is 50% tougher than previous models.

The display boasts an impressive 2000 nits of peak brightness, making it easy to view even in bright outdoor settings. With its vibrant 6.1" Super Retina XDR display, content comes to life with remarkable clarity and depth. The screen remains responsive and fluid, perfect for everything from scrolling through social media to watching your favourite movies or playing graphically demanding games. Customisation is also a focus, with the new Action Button allowing users to quickly access key functions like recording voice memos or turning on your flashlight.

Features & Performance

The iPhone 16 takes a huge leap in performance thanks to its new A18 Bionic chip, a powerhouse built on 3nm second-generation technology. With a 6-core CPU that’s 30% faster than the iPhone 15, the device is designed to handle even the most demanding tasks with ease.

The 16-core Neural Engine is twice as fast, offering seamless integration with machine learning models for tasks like photo editing, gaming, and augmented reality experiences. System memory bandwidth has increased by 17%, ensuring that you can access your apps and files more efficiently than ever before.

Apple's new Silicon also brings enhanced capabilities with Apple Intelligence, including advanced cloud compute functions that preserve privacy while allowing access to powerful servers. This includes innovative writing tools that let you rewrite notes, adjust the tone of text, and proofread documents on the go. Siri has also been upgraded, with richer language understanding and more personal interactions. You can even create custom emojis by typing a description, and type to quickly find relevant photos and videos. For added safety, the iPhone 16 offers emergency SOS features, including live video sharing with health services and satellite communication for sending and receiving messages in remote areas.

Camera

The iPhone 16’s camera system sets a new standard in mobile photography. The 48MP Fusion Camera captures up to 1.6% more light, delivering brighter, sharper images even in low-light conditions. Deep Fusion technology and 0 shutter lag performance ensure that every moment is captured with remarkable clarity. The 12MP ultra-wide camera with autofocus allows for impressive macro photography, letting users capture intricate details like never before.

New camera controls make accessing features faster and more intuitive. With just a click, you can instantly engage advanced camera capabilities, including visual intelligence, which provides additional information about objects in the frame. The iPhone 16 effectively puts the equivalent of four lenses in your pocket, enabling versatile photography in any situation. For the first time, the iPhone offers spatial photo capture, perfect for commemorating life’s most important moments like a child’s first steps.

The camera’s improved audio quality also elevates the video experience, reducing wind noise for clearer sound. Combined with iOS 18’s redesigned Photos app, which organises photos beautifully by trips, seasons, and events, the iPhone 16 ensures that all your memories are easy to relive and share.
