iPhone 16 Pro Max to iPhone 16: Release date, price in India, design, camera, specifications, latest leaks

As we enter the second half of the year, we can't wait for the release of the iPhone 16 series. Apple is expected to introduce four new models: iPhone 16 standard, iPhone 16 Plus, iPhone 16 Pro, and iPhone 16 Pro Max.

With numerous leaks and rumors emerging, excitement is building about what the next flagship series will bring. From design and specifications to features and price, here's everything you need to know about the iPhone 16 series.

iPhone 16 series design

According to the leak, the standard iPhone 16 model will likely keep the same screen size but could feature a new vertical camera module similar to that of the iPhone 12. Apple could replace the mute button on the left side with the action button introduced with the iPhone 15 Pro model. The volume button is expected to be placed below the action button.

The iPhone 16 Pro Max is said to have a 6.9-inch display with narrower bezels around the display. The iPhone 16 Pro is rumored to have a 6.3-inch display, up from the previous 6.2-inch display.

According to a Weibo post by informant Fixed Focus Digital, the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus will likely come in the same five colors as the standard iPhone 15: black, blue, green, pink, and yellow. There is also speculation that Apple will introduce two new colors, possibly purple and white.

iPhone 16 series camera

The leak suggests a major camera upgrade for the iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max. Possible improvements include a 48-megapixel ultra-wide-angle camera with a stacked design for better light capture. The iPhone 16 Pro may also feature the 5x Tetra Prism optical zoom lens that was previously only available on the Pro Max.

Informant MajinBu recently shared an image of an iPhone 16 Pro case with a significantly larger camera notch on the X. This suggests that the iPhone 16 Pro may have a larger camera sensor than its predecessor. In contrast, the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus are not expected to have any notable camera improvement.

iPhone 16 series specifications and features

Apple's upcoming iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus are expected to use a version of the A17 Pro chip from the iPhone 15 Pro model. Rumors suggest that the iPhone 16 Pro Max will feature the new A18 Pro Bionic chip, which promises faster and more efficient performance.

The iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus are expected to come with 8GB of RAM, 6GB more than previous models. The models are also expected to feature new thermal designs to reduce overheating, possibly using graphene thermal systems. The iPhone 16 Pro models may feature a metal battery casing to improve heat dissipation.

Although the changes in design and specifications are minor, the new model is expected to benefit from iOS 18 and may include AI-powered features such as improved Siri.

Expected price of the iPhone 16

According to the leaked data, the base model iPhone 16 could be available starting at around Rs 79,990, while the larger iPhone 16 Plus could start at Rs 87,990. The price of the premium iPhone 16 Pro Max could start at Rs 169,900. These prices are based on leaks, so it is better to wait for an official confirmation from Apple.

iPhone 16: When will it be released? The anticipation for the release of the iPhone 16 series is growing. Considering the past trends of the iPhone series released every year, the release of the iPhone 16 series is expected in September 2024. However, the final date and specifications are still part of the leaks and rumors.
