Even though the iPhone 15 has not yet been made available to consumers, rumors regarding Apple’s iPhone 16 have already begun to circulate. The iPhone 16, the iPhone 16 Pro, the iPhone 16 Pro Max, and possibly the iPhone 16 Ultra are all anticipated to be a part of Apple’s upcoming iPhone 16 product lineup, as reported by those with knowledge of the industry. There are rumors that the iPhone 16 will come equipped with Apple’s very own modem chip and an in-display version of Face ID. Although it is anticipated that the price of the entry-level model of the iPhone 15 will begin at $799, it is possible that the iPhone Ultra will be the top-of-the-line model and will cost more than $1100.

According to the standard rollout schedule that has been followed for all previous iPhone models, the iPhone 16 is not likely to be available until the latter half of the year 2024. All of these expectations, however, are based on rumors, which are subject to change as more information becomes available. There have been rumors that are contradictory regarding the in-display Face ID, with some sources suggesting that it might be included only in the iPhone 16 Pro models, while others say that it might be delayed until 2025 with the iPhone 17 Pro. Both of these rumors have been circulating.

A periscope camera lens, which could offer improved zoom capabilities, has been added to the iPhone 16, which is one of the significant changes introduced by this model update. There may also be modifications to the storage options, with Apple possibly eliminating the smallest option and beginning with 256GB as the base storage capacity instead. With regard to the operating system, Apple is planning to ship iOS 18 alongside the iPhone 16.

A lot of what we know about Apple’s iPhone 16 is based on rumors, and those rumors are subject to change as more information becomes available. The iPhone 16 has not yet been released. However, features to look forward to in this new lineup include the rumored in-display Face ID as well as the addition of a periscope camera lens.
