THERE’S a new iPhone coming – and we have a good idea what it’ll look like.
So buckle up, Apple fans.
In September, we will likely see the launch of the iPhone 16.
We won’t know exactly until the big day, but thanks to leaks, rumors, and some educated guesses, there’s a lot to look forward to.
What we know for sure is that the iPhone 16 will run on Apple’s new iOS 18 software.
That’s because the company announced it earlier this year and is expected to launch in the new iPhone.
This means that at least some versions of the iPhone 16 will have something called Apple Intelligence.
This is an AI feature that allows you to create custom emojis with AI and even generate illustrations of your friends and family.
You will be able to ask ChatGPT questions directly with the help of Siri, and chat with Siri in a much more natural way.
The new update also allows you to change the color of home screen app icons and place them outside of the normal grid order.
And you can schedule text messages and more.
FRESH APPLE
As always, we’ll likely see the iPhone 16 in different sizes.
Typically this means two cheaper modelsplus two more expensive and powerful Pro devices.
There is no evidence that the format will change, there are also rumors that the Pro models may grow slightly in terms of screen size.
We also expect to see Apple switch to vertical lenses on the iPhone 16, rather than the current camera arrangement that shifts them diagonally.
Hopefully this will mean that regular iPhone 16 models can record sophisticated 3D spatial videos that you can watch inside Apple’s Vision Pro headset – just like the current iPhone 15 Pro.
We’ll likely still see a range of colors across all four iPhone 16 models, although the Pro devices were rumored to receive a new Rose option.
BIG BUTTON
The iPhone 16 is expected to get the action button that replaces the mute button.
We saw this in iPhone 15 Professional last year. It’s a great feature because you can do basically anything – open the camera, launch Shazam, or call your mom for a chat. Cool chat.

We can also see a new capture button for taking photos.
A big upgrade will come in the form of an all-new processor.
This year we’re expecting the A18 chip, which will likely bring some performance and battery life improvements – as well as a little more computational heft to power some of the new AI. characteristics.
We don’t have pricing information yet, but we expect roughly similar retail costs to last year.
And I previously predicted the iPhone 16 release date in another video, and I stick with it here.
Expect a reveal on Tuesday, September 10th, pre-orders on September 13th, and in-store launch on Friday, September 20th.
Mark your calendars because it’s going to be big.
