Apple’s iPhone 16 Pro series is poised for significant enhancements, as revealed by the latest rumors sourced from the supply chain. Notably, both models in the series will boast larger displays, with the 16 Pro featuring a 6.3-inch screen and the 16 Pro Max an even more expansive 6.9-inch display. What sets these displays apart is the incorporation of Micro Lens Array (MLA) OLED panels, promising superior brightness output and enhanced viewing angles compared to conventional OLED panels.
Powering the iPhone 16 Pro generation will be Apple’s A18 Pro chip, accompanied by a substantial 8GB of RAM. A notable upgrade comes in the form of expanded storage options, with users now able to elevate it to an impressive 2TB, doubling the limit seen in previous iPhone iterations.
The latest leaks also align with previous information about exclusive AI features on the 16 Pro models, hinting at potential integration with Apple’s recently launched Apple MGIE AI model. Camera enhancements are on the horizon as well, with both phones slated to receive a new 48MP ultrawide lens, and the smaller Pro variant finally adopting the 5x tetraprism lens.
Battery life is expected to take a leap, especially with the iPhone 16 Pro Max purportedly housing a robust 4,676mAh battery cell, surpassing the 4,441mAh cell found in the 15 Pro Max. Paired with efficiency gains from the new chipset, this could make the 16 Pro Max the iPhone with the longest battery life.
Even the smaller iPhone 16 Pro is anticipated to feature an improved battery, as evidenced by leaked prototypes showcasing a 3,355mAh (13.02Wh) capacity cell housed within a metal bracket designed for enhanced heat dissipation. Additionally, both models will introduce the Capture button, and Apple has reportedly refined titanium processing, increasing yield while concurrently reducing casing costs. The amalgamation of these advancements positions the iPhone 16 Pro series as a significant leap forward in Apple’s smartphone lineup.
