What to expect from the Apple iPhone 16 and 16 Plus

Apple adds some new buttons to the Apple iPhone 16 and 16 Plus. As rumoured, the two inherit the iPhone 15 Pro's Action Buttons alongside a new "Camera Control" button. This new physical button is a dedicated shutter and another way to change settings in the Camera app. The rear cameras on the iPhone 16 and 16 Plus are now stacked vertically. It is better suited to capture spatial video this way, which you can use with the Vision Pro.

The camera upgrades to the new iPhone 16 and 16 Plus include its lenses. It gets an equivalent of four lenses all in all despite only having two sensors. The 48-megapixel Fusion camera comes with a 2x telephoto option, while the new 12-megapixel ultra-wide can also be used for macro photography.

Since its 2020 redesign, the iPhone has seen incremental updates rather than groundbreaking changes. This trend is set to continue with the upcoming iPhone 16 lineup.

While last year's Pro model introduced a titanium shell, the core device remained largely unchanged. The Dynamic Island, though hailed as innovative, was more of an interface tweak than a fundamental shift. This year's models will follow suit, offering subtle refinements rather than a dramatic overhaul.
