Apple’s flagship September launch, dubbed this year as “It’s glow time”, will take place on September 9 and will showcase all 4 new iPhones alongside a few other hardware launches. With less than 2 weeks to go until the main event, here’s a look at everything we know about the expected price, specs, and features of the new iPhone 16 Plus.
iPhone 16 Plus Price and Display:
Apple is expected to keep the same 6.7-inch OLED display with a 60Hz refresh rate for the iPhone 16 Additionally, a report from Macrumors suggests that Apple could be using microlensing technology to improve brightness and reduce power consumption on the iPhone 16 Plus. The company is also said to be using Edge Reduction Structure (BRS) to reduce bezels on the iPhone 16 models, but it is still unclear whether the new design changes will be applied to the standard variants.
He iPhone 16 Plus It is expected to maintain last year’s price of $899, which means perhaps the same starting price of ₹89,900 in India.
iPhone 16 Plus Camera:
According to a report from Apple Insider, the iPhone 16 Plus will come with the same camera setup as last year. It will supposedly include a 48MP main shooter with an f/1.6 aperture and 2x optical telephoto zoom, and an ultra-wide-angle lens that can take photos at 0.5x. The ultra-wide-angle shooter may receive a slight upgrade, with an f/2.2 aperture instead of f/2.4 on the iPhone 15, meaning the new iPhone could theoretically allow more light to reach the sensor and thus improve low-light photography.
iPhone 16 processor:
Several reports have suggested that Apple could use the same A18 chipset in all of its iPhone 16 models, as all of these devices will be able to perform on-device AI tasks. However, the processors in the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus could be differentiated from the Pro variants by their GPU performance.
Meanwhile, Apple is also expected to give the iPhone 16 Plus a RAM boost, with 8GB of RAM compared to the 6GB of its predecessor.
iPhone 16 Design:
Apple is rumored to be planning to make some changes to the design of the iPhone 16 Plus. For starters, the tech giant is expected to switch to a vertical camera layout, similar to that of the iPhone X or iPhone 12, in favor of the diagonal design of its predecessor. The new design is expected to help the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus capture spatial videos.
Apple is also said to be replacing the mute button on standard iPhone 16 models with the Action Button, which it introduced in iPhone 15 Pro last year’s models. Meanwhile, the company could also add a new ‘Capture’ button that would allow users to start video recording, zoom in and out, or focus on a subject.
