With the camera controls, you can more easily and quickly access camera tools like zoom or depth of field, capturing the perfect photo in record time. The enhanced ultra-wide camera with autofocus allows you to take incredibly detailed macro photos and videos. Capture stunning high-resolution images with the 48 MP Fusion camera or zoom in with 2x optical quality telephoto zoom. The next-generation photographic styles give you more creative flexibility, allowing you to personalize each photo even further. You can also undo all styles at any time. The A18 chip represents a leap of two generations from the A16 Bionic chip in the iPhone 15. It enables advanced photo and video features as well as console-level gaming with exceptional energy efficiency. The iPhone 16 works in tandem with the A18 chip, providing a real boost to battery life with up to 22 hours of video playback. Charge via USB-C or connect a MagSafe charger for faster wireless charging.
The iPhone 16 features a sturdy aerospace-grade aluminum design with a 6.1" Super Retina XDR display. It is extremely durable, featuring the latest generation Ceramic Shield on the front, which is 2x tougher than any other smartphone glass. The quickest way to access your favorite feature: simply press and hold to launch the desired function—such as the flashlight, a voice memo, or silent mode. With iOS 18, you can color the icons on your home screen in any hue. Find your favorite shots faster in the revamped Photos app and add playful, animated effects to words, phrases, or emojis in iMessage. With crash detection, the iPhone can recognize a severe car accident and call for help if you are unable to.
