Both models feature aerospace-grade aluminum construction with a color-infused backglass and are available in ultramarine, teal, pink, white, and black. The iPhone 16 sports a 6.1-inch display, while the 16 Plus has a 6.7-inch screen, with both offering 2000 nits peak brightness and 1-nit dimming in low-light settings.

Action Button and Camera Controls

For the first time, the Action Button is available on non-Pro models. This customizable button allows users to quickly access features like voice memos, song identification, or app-specific shortcuts like FordPass.

Additionally, a new camera control button on the side allows for quick photo and video capture. Single-clicking opens the camera, double-clicking takes a photo, and holding the button starts video recording. The control also supports advanced touch gestures to improve framing and shot accuracy.

Chipset

Powered by the new A18 chipset, built on 3nm second-gen technology, the iPhone 16 offers a 30% boost in performance over the iPhone 15’s A16 Bionic chip. The 6-core CPU includes 2 performance cores and 4 efficiency cores, making the device faster and more energy-efficient. The A18 chip also improves system memory bandwidth by 17%.

Camera specs

The iPhone 16 models feature a 48MP main camera that merges 48MP and 12MP photos into a 24MP image, offering greater detail and clarity. The 2x telephoto zoom, combined with an f/1.6 aperture, improves low-light photography. Users can record video in 4K60 with Dolby Vision HDR, while the 12MP ultra-wide camera now allows 2.6x more light, enhancing brightness and sharpness in various conditions.
