Reference leak information: macrumors, iphone-mania
According to Apple, the iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max, scheduled for release in 2024, will be based on the curved edges and titanium frame introduced in the iPhone 15 Pro, and will feature an increased display size and a new capture button (capacitive capture button) .
As reported by multiple sources, the displays of the iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max/Ultra may be enlarged from the current 6.1-inch and 6.7-inch to 6.3-inch and 6.9-inch . ( Only the iPhone 16 Pro model is expected to have a larger screen size .)
There are also rumors that the bezels will be smaller. Although this is not confirmed, it seems that the iPhone 15 series will use the same "Dynamic Island" design.
Comparison of screen sizes between iPhone 15 and iPhone 16
- iPhone 15: 6.1 inches
- iPhone 15 Plus: 6.7 inches
- iPhone 15 Pro: 6.1 inches

All iPhone 16 series models equipped with "Action Button"
Adding a "Capture button" to the iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max models
All models of the iPhone 16 series, scheduled for release in September 2024, will be equipped with an action button. The action button (push button) was installed on the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max in September 2023.
In 2024, Apple is expected to continue to include the action button in the iPhone 16 series, and the action button is expected to be installed not only on the iPhone 16 Pro/Pro Max models, but also on the iPhone 16/16 Plus models.
There are also rumors that Apple will add a new "capture button" to the higher-end iPhone 16 models (iPhone 16 Pro/Pro Max).
What is the capture button? Unlike a mechanical button that can be physically pressed, the capture button is designed to be detected simply by touching it with your finger. The capture button itself is capacitive, and the operation method is similar to that of a touch panel.
The capture button will be located on the side, just like the power button on the iPhone 16 Pro/Pro Max, as shown in the image. In this position, it seems that it will be more convenient to use it as a shutter button when taking pictures with the iPhone 16 in landscape orientation.
Specifically, the "capture button" on the higher-end iPhone 16 models responds to pressure and touch, allowing you to zoom in and out by swiping left and right with your fingertip. You can also press it lightly to focus on a subject, or press it harder to record.

iPhone 16 Display
Apple may introduce new microlens OLED (organic light-emitting diode) display technology to all iPhone 16 models. The displays in the iPhone 16 lineup will be brighter than the OLED displays in the higher-end iPhone 15 models, and they may also consume less power, improving the battery life of the iPhone itself.
Additionally, all iPhone 16 models are rumored to feature new ultra-thin bezel technology, which will likely minimize the bezel around the bottom of the display.
A Micro Lens Array (MLA) is an optical element that integrates many micro lenses measuring in the μm to mm range. Micro lens arrays have a wide range of applications, including optical communications, lighting, and adaptive optics.
To improve brightness without increasing power consumption, it is important to reduce reflected light. To achieve this, it is rumored that Apple will use a uniform pattern of billions of lenses in the microlens array of the iPhone 16 series to reduce reflections inside the panel.
iPhone16 Camera
The camera has evolved even further! Is it similar to the iPhone X?

First, the conclusion: the iPhone 16 Pro/Promax (Ultra) is unlikely to be equipped with a quad rear camera.
Apple plans to equip the iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max with a 5x tetraprism telephoto camera, known as a tetraprism zoom lens, to enable longer optical zoom.
Of the 2023 iPhone 15 high-end models, only the iPhone 15 Pro Max will be equipped with a 5x telephoto lens, but since it appears that the size of the 2024 iPhone 16 high-end model will be increased, it is quite likely that Apple will equip both the iPhone 16 Pro and 16 Pro Max with a tetraprism telephoto camera.
Regarding the camera design, an image of the camera chassis of the iPhone 16 has been leaked, as shown in the image on the right. The camera lens of the iPhone 16 lower model appears to be vertically arranged, with a design similar to the camera used in the iPhone ⅹ.
iPhone 16 chip
Will all iPhone 16 models use the "A18" chip?
Rumor has it that Apple will use the same "A18" chip in all four iPhone 16 models, but the higher-end iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max models may use the "A18 Pro" chip.
The upgraded A18 chip will likely have more cores and significantly improved performance, and is expected to improve artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning capabilities, with the introduction of generative AI technology. There are also rumors that the die size of the chip will be larger.
