Apple's highly anticipated September event, set for September 9, is just around the corner. As excitement builds, tech enthusiasts are eager to learn more about the new iPhone 16 Plus, one of four new iPhones expected to be unveiled. Here's a comprehensive look at what we can expect in terms of price, display, camera, battery, chipset, and design changes.
iPhone 16 Plus Price and Display:
The iPhone 16 Plus is likely to maintain the same 6.7-inch OLED display with a 60Hz refresh rate as its predecessor. However, there's speculation that Apple may introduce micro-lens technology to enhance brightness and reduce power consumption. Additionally, rumors suggest that the company could implement Border Reduction Structure (BRS) technology to shrink the bezels on the iPhone 16 models. Whether these design tweaks will be applied to the standard versions is still uncertain. In terms of pricing, the iPhone 16 Plus is expected to start at approximately ₹89,900 in India, mirroring last year's price of $899.
iPhone 16 Plus Camera:
The iPhone 16 Plus is rumored to feature a similar camera setup to last year’s model. This includes a 48MP primary camera with an f/1.6 aperture and 2x optical telephoto zoom, alongside an ultra-wide-angle lens capable of 0.5x zoom. Notably, the ultra-wide-angle lens may see an upgrade to an f/2.2 aperture, compared to f/2.4 on the previous model, potentially improving low-light photography by allowing more light to reach the sensor.
iPhone 16 Processor:
Reports suggest that all iPhone 16 models will be powered by the A18 chipset, designed to enhance AI capabilities across the board. However, the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus might differ from the Pro variants in terms of GPU performance. Additionally, the iPhone 16 Plus is expected to receive a RAM upgrade, boasting 8GB of RAM compared to the 6GB found in its predecessor.
iPhone 16 Design:
Design-wise, Apple is rumored to be making some notable changes to the iPhone 16 Plus. One of the most talked-about changes is the shift to a vertical camera layout, similar to that seen on the iPhone X and iPhone 12, moving away from the diagonal arrangement of the previous model. This new layout is expected to enhance the phone's ability to capture spatial video. Furthermore, the traditional mute button may be replaced with an Action Button, a feature previously exclusive to the iPhone 15 Pro models. Apple may also introduce a new 'Capture' button, offering users quick access to video recording, zoom, and focus controls.
