iPhone 16 finally launched by Apple! Here’s what you need to know about.

Users from all around the world are excitedly awaiting the arrival of the new iPhone 16 series, as well as other high-end devices and wearables.

The event is especially noteworthy this year since it is anticipated that the new devices would be significantly integrated with ‘Apple Intelligence,’ the iPhone maker’s exclusive suite of generative AI capabilities and integrations (AI).

iPhone 16 Overview:

Design and Display

After testing a number of ideas, Apple settled on a vertically aligned camera system with a pill-shaped camera hump for the regular iPhone 16 models. The diagonal lenses on earlier iPhones were accommodated by a square-shaped camera bump; however, with the new lens setup, Apple is able to reduce the size of the camera bump.

The distinct Wide and Ultrawide lenses are housed in the pill-shaped hump. On the rear of the gadget, outside of the bump, is where the camera flash will go, and the microphone will be near to the lenses. Apple intends to move the mute switch to the Action button on the left side of the iPhone, and the iPhone 16 models will use the same button that debuted with the iPhone 15 Pro models. The Action button will be above the volume buttons.

The iPhone 16 models won’t differ significantly in terms of size or shape from the iPhone 15 models, with the exception of the new vertical lens configuration and the Capture Button.

Micro-lens technology could be used in the iPhone 16’s OLED panels to increase brightness and lower power usage. To lessen internal reflection, a consistent pattern of billions of lenses is arranged inside the panel using micro-lens arrays, or MLA. Perceived brightness rises as a result of the reflected light without increasing power usage.

The Face ID mechanism in the iPhone 16 models may have undergone a few minor adjustments, however, it’s unclear exactly what might have changed. According to reports, an English supplier to Apple lost a supply agreement with the company because of its intentions to “overhaul” Face ID with the release of the iPhone 16.

Camera

The iPhone 16’s Camera Control is one of its standout features; it enables users to swiftly access visual intelligence to discover more about the things or locations around them. Quick camera launch, picture taking, and video recording are all possible with Camera Control. Later this year, Camera Control will enable users to learn about locations and things more quickly than ever before by unlocking visual intelligence.

The phone has a 48MP Fusion camera with a 2x Telephoto capability in addition to a 12MP ultra-wide camera. With an f/1.9 aperture, the phone’s 12MP True depth camera is ideal for taking selfies. The iPhone 16 now has 3D video and picture capabilities. It also offers innovative new methods for editing video sound using Audio Mix, enabling users to modify their sound after it has been captured in order to emphasize the voice of the subject, create the impression that the video was recorded in a professional studio, or arrange vocal tracks in front of background noise for surround sound. Robust machine learning techniques minimize undesired noise through wind noise reduction, resulting in improved audio quality.

Processor

iphone 16 chip

In order to further accelerate Apple Intelligence, the A18 Bionic chip, which powers the iPhone 16, was developed using second-generation 3-nanometer technology. Moreover, it has an enhanced 16-core Neural Engine that is touted to perform machine learning models up to two times quicker than the A16 Bionic processor. This neural engine is optimized for big generative models. Compared to the A16 Bionic chip, its six-core CPU is thirty percent faster.

Other Specs

Apple Intelligence on iPhone 16

Apple iPhone 16 is equipped with Apple Intelligence and runs on iOS 18. For the majority of the world, it will be accessible as a free software update.

Action Button

An Action Button is included with the iPhone 15 Pro models, and it is anticipated that the normal iPhone 16 models will also get the Action Button in 2024. The Action Button on the iPhone 16 series will be the same as the Action Button on the iPhone 15 Pro. The Action button, which takes the place of the conventional mute switch, has several uses, including turning on the camera, starting a shortcut, switching between focus modes, utilizing Translate, turning on and off silent mode, and more.

Thermal Improvements

A novel thermal design aimed at preventing overheating is anticipated for the iPhone 16 models. For the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Pro models, Apple is reportedly developing a graphene thermal system. Additionally, a metal battery cover that enhances heat dissipation may be found on these versions.

5G Modem Chips

The Qualcomm X70 chip, which was previously utilized in the iPhone 15 models, is anticipated to be employed in the basic iPhone 16 models. In an effort to break free from Qualcomm, Apple is developing a modem chip and antenna system of its own, albeit both are not anticipated to be ready for release until 2024. Apple-designed modem chips, according to analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, should be available by 2025.

WiFi 7

According to Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, the net-generation WiFi 7 technology, which is anticipated to offer rates of “at least 30” gigabits per second and maybe as high as 40Gb/s, may be incorporated into the iPhone 16 models. With 4K quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) technology and the ability to employ 320MHz channels, Wi-Fi 7 can ultimately achieve up to 2.4x faster rates than Wi-Fi 6 with the same number of antennae. In the end, Wi-Fi 7 will offer lower latency, higher maximum transfer speeds, and more dependable connectivity.
