iPhone 16 series is set to launch later this year in September.
This corroborates previous rumours about a jump from 6.1 inches to 6.3 inches for the base Pro model and from 6.7 inches to 6.9 inches for the iPhone 16 Pro Max. This will make the iPhone 16 Pro Max the biggest iPhone yet.
On the other hand, the standard non-Pro models- the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus are expected to retain the same 6.1 and 6.7-inch sizes, respectively. However, they will be getting the 'Action Button', which was previously limited to the Pro variants. This will replace the mute slider as it offers the option for customised shortcuts beyond silencing the phone.
In line with earlier rumours, the camera layout on the iPhone 16 has also been changed. The leaked dummy units show a vertical camera arrangement, which is a departure from the diagonal layout seen on the iPhone 14 and iPhone 15. This change is expected to introduce spatial video recording capabilities to the base iPhone models.
All four iPhone 16 models show the new 'Capture Button' positioned below the power button on the right spine. While the complete functionality details of the button are under wraps but could offer camera functions like focusing or swipe gestures for zoom control, etc.
