Apple has officially unveiled the highly anticipated iPhone 16 series. The new lineup includes the base iPhone 16, the iPhone 16 Plus, the iPhone 16 Pro, and the iPhone 16 Pro Max.
There are growing whispers that the iPhone 16 Plus could be the last of its kind. Speculation suggests that Apple may phase out the Plus model in favour of introducing a new Slim variant in the iPhone 17 series, set to launch in 2025. This potential shift is driven by Apple’s aim to streamline its lineup and offer a more focused selection of devices.
iPhone 16 series come with the latest A18 Bionic chip promising enhanced performance, faster processing speeds, and improved battery life. The iPhone 16 series also introduces a range of new features, including a redesigned camera system with advanced capabilities and a refreshed design that boasts thinner bezels and a more refined finish.
iPhone 16 colour options
The new iPhone 16 model comes in a range of vibrant colours including ultramarine, teal, pink, white, and black. Both the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus are crafted with over 30% recycled content, including 85% recycled aluminium in the enclosures and more than 80% recycled steel in various components. This eco-conscious approach extends to the iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max, which feature a durable yet lightweight titanium design.
