Apple is set to unveil its iPhone 16 series on September 9, with significant updates expected for the iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max, the most powerful models in the lineup. This year, Apple is introducing new colours for the Pro models, a departure from its usual practice of maintaining similar colour options across generations.
Respected leaker Sonny Dickson has revealed images of dummy units, showing four colour options, including a new bronze shade that may replace the current Blue Titanium. The other colours are expected to feature brushed titanium edges, with natural titanium and a white variant likely making a return. The black version appears darker than previous models.
Apple iPhone 16 Pro And iPhone 16 Pro Max: Design
The iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max will boast larger displays, measuring 6.3 inches and 6.9 inches respectively, marking the largest screens yet on an iPhone. Despite the bigger screens, the phones will only slightly increase in size and weight. The new models are also expected to feature narrower bezels, providing additional screen real estate.
Apple iPhone 16 Pro And iPhone 16 Pro Max: Camera
Camera enhancements are another highlight, with the tetraprism telephoto lens, previously exclusive to the iPhone 15 Pro Max, now available on both Pro models. Additionally, the ultra-wide camera is rumoured to increase in resolution from 12 to 48 megapixels.
Apple iPhone 16 Pro And iPhone 16 Pro Max: Capture Button
One of the most anticipated features is the all-new "Capture Button," designed for taking photos and videos. This button will function similarly to a DSLR camera shutter, allowing for half-press autofocus and full-press photo capture. Users will also be able to zoom in by swiping along the button.
Apple iPhone 16 Pro And iPhone 16 Pro Max: Processor
All models in the iPhone 16 series will be powered by the new A18 processor and come with 8 GB of memory, necessary to support Apple's new AI-driven features, collectively referred to as "Apple Intelligence." The Pro models may also feature enhanced graphics capabilities and faster Wi-Fi, with Wi-Fi 7 expected to be included.
Apple iPhone 16 Pro And iPhone 16 Pro Max: Battery
Battery life is also expected to see improvements, particularly in the iPhone 16 Pro, which will likely benefit from a new battery design and better thermal capacity.
Expected Prices in Pakistan:
iPhone 16 (128 GB): PKR 339,999
iPhone 16 Pro Max (256 GB): PKR 454,000
Expected International Prices:
iPhone 16: $799
iPhone 16 Plus: $899

With these updates, Apple continues to push the envelope in smartphone technology, offering more powerful and feature-rich devices for its users.
