New camera system.
Go to Great Lengths to Get the Perfect Shot
The versatile new iPhone 16 camera system captures beautiful photos — from up close or far away. The two‑in‑one 48MP Fusion camera lets you take stunning super‑high‑resolution images, or zoom in with the 2x optical‑quality Telephoto. The Ultra Wide camera shoots extreme close‑up macro photos or wider, more expansive pictures. Altogether, it’s like having four lenses in your pocket.

Audio Mix.Make your Voice Heard
Powered by advanced intelligence and Spatial Audio capture, Audio Mix lets you adjust the way voices sound in your videos using three different voice options. Want to decrease background sound? Or just focus on the voices that are in frame? Simply select the mix and adjust intensity to get the sound you want after video capture.
In-Frame: Only captures the voices of the people on camera, even if people off camera are talking during the recording.
Studio: Makes voices sound like you’re recording in a professional studio equipped with sound-dampening walls. Great for vloggers or podcasters because the recording will sound like the mic is close to the subject’s mouth, even if it’s a few feet away.
Cinematic: Captures all the voices around you and consolidates them towards the front of the screen — just like sound is formatted for films.
Choose your Photographic Style.Change it up.Change it back
Our latest generation of Photographic Styles gives you greater creative flexibility than ever before, so you can make every photo even more you. And you can add, change or remove a style anytime you want.
Lock in your Look
We’ve created new styles that let you dial in your exact desired look with more advanced skin‑tone rendering and set it across your photos. And thanks to the powerful A18 chip, you can see the change in a live preview before you apply it.
Align with your Aesthetic
Apple improved image pipeline also enables more creative styles, which allow you to customise the different moods of a photo through colour.
Make the Most of your Megapixels
Personalise every style even more with the new control pad, which makes it easy to adjust tone and colour simultaneously. You can also use the slider to adjust the intensity of specific colours instead of applying a one‑size‑fits‑all approach.
A18 Chip.Superfast. Supersmart
Meet A18. A custom-built chip that jumps two generations ahead of the A16 Bionic chip in iPhone 15. And it powers next-level camera features like Photographic Styles and Camera Control. All with exceptional power efficiency to extend battery life.
Even longer battery life.
You’ll need to Recharge Before it Will
iPhone 16 has been designed to make room for a larger battery, which works together with A18 to deliver a big boost in battery life, even with so many new features. So you can game, binge and rock on — and on.
Snap on a new MagSafe charger for even faster wireless charging[2] — up to 25W with a 30W power adapter or higher, enabling up to 50% charge in around 30 minutes.[3]

In An Emergency, iPhone has your Back
iPhone has vital safety features that can help save lives. If you’ve tried calling emergency services for urgent help but don’t have mobile service or Wi‑Fi, you can use iPhone to text emergency services over satellite.[6]
Crash Detection uses hardware sensors and advanced motion algorithms to detect a serious car crash, then call emergency services and notify your emergency contacts when you can’t — even when you don’t have a signal.[7]
iPhone and Mac
You can copy images, video or text from your iPhone and paste it into a different app on your Mac, as well as answer calls or messages from your iPhone. And with iCloud, you can access your favourite files from either your iPhone or Mac.
iPhone and Apple Watch
Misplaced your iPhone? The latest Apple Watch models can show you its approximate distance and direction.[10] To set up a group photo on your iPhone, join the group and use Apple Watch as a viewfinder to snap the shot. And when you take a call on your Apple Watch, just tap your iPhone to continue the conversation there.
iPhone and AirPods
Set up AirPods on iPhone with just a tap. You’ll love Adaptive Audio, which automatically tailors the noise control to provide the best listening experience across different environments and interactions throughout the day.
Designed to make a difference
Environment
All Apple data centres run on 100% renewable energy.
iPhone 16 uses more recycled metals than ever: 95% recycled lithium in the battery.[8] 100% recycled gold in the plating of the USB-C connector and camera wires. 100% recycled copper foil in the MagSafe inductive charger.
The packaging for iPhone 16 is 100% fibre‑based for the first time.[9]
Privacy
The new Passwords app makes it even easier to access account passwords, passkeys, Wi‑Fi passwords, two-factor authentication codes and more. It stores them securely and syncs across your devices with end‑to‑end encryption.
You can also control which contacts to share with an app, rather than giving it access to all your contacts. And you can choose to share more contacts over time.
Accessibility
Eye Tracking makes it possible to navigate your iPhone and use your favourite apps just by moving your eyes, thanks to the power of machine learning and the front‑facing camera.
Music Haptics matches the iPhone Taptic Engine with the rhythm of songs. So people who are deaf or hard of hearing can enjoy the Apple Music catalogue in a whole new way.
Vocal Shortcuts helps people with severe atypical speech record sounds that trigger specific actions on iPhone — set a timer, take a screenshot, scroll up and down, and more.
Notes:
1.Display size: The display has rounded corners that follow a beautiful curved design, and these corners are within a standard rectangle. When measured as a standard rectangular shape, the screen is 6.12 inches (iPhone 16) or 6.69 inches (iPhone 16 Plus) diagonally. Actual viewable area is less.
2.Accessories sold separately.
3.Testing conducted by Apple in August 2024 using pre‑production iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus units and software, USB‑C Charge Cable with Apple USB‑C Power Adapter (20W Model A2305), and Apple MagSafe Chargers (1‑metre Model A2580 and 2‑metre Model A3250) with Apple USB-C Power Adapter (30W Model A2164). Fast‑charge testing conducted with drained iPhone units. Times measured from the appearance of the Apple logo as the unit started up. Charge time varies with settings and environmental factors; actual results will vary.
4.All battery claims depend on network configuration and many other factors; actual results will vary. Battery has limited recharge cycles and may eventually need to be replaced. Battery life and charge cycles vary by use and settings.

Do not attempt to charge a wet iPhone; refer to the user guide for cleaning and drying instructions. Liquid damage not covered under warranty.
