Strength. Beauty. Titanium
iPhone 16 Pro features a Grade 5 titanium design with a new, refined microblasted finish. Titanium has one of the highest strength-to-weight ratios of any metal, making these models incredibly strong and impressively light. iPhone 16 Pro comes in four stunning colours — including new Desert Titanium.
Internal design improvements — including a 100 per cent recycled aluminium thermal substructure and back glass optimisations that further dissipate heat — enable up to 20 per cent better sustained performance than iPhone 15 Pro. So you can do all the things you love — like high-intensity gaming — for longer.

New display technology allows us to route display data under active pixels with no distortion, resulting in thinner borders for larger 6.3-inch and 6.9-inch Super Retina XDR displays that feel great in your hand.
iPhone 16 Pro is splash, water and dust resistant.[2] It also has Apple latest-generation Ceramic Shield material that’s two times tougher than any smartphone glass. Talk about durable.
Take Total Camera Control
Now you can take the perfect photo or video in record time. Camera Control gives you an easier way to quickly access camera tools. Simply slide your finger to adjust camera functions like exposure or depth of field, and toggle through each lens or use digital zoom to frame your shot — just how you like it.
Later this year, Camera Control will introduce a two-stage shutter that lets you automatically lock focus and exposure with a light press — so you can reframe your shot without losing focus on your subject.

Cutting-Edge Control
Camera Control is a picture of innovation. On the surface, a sapphire crystal with a smooth texture is surrounded by a colour-matched fine stainless steel trim. Inside, a high-precision force sensor with haptic feedback emulates the feel of a DSLR camera shutter. While a new touch sensor — the first of its kind — recognises precise interactions like clicks and slides.
4K 120 fps Dolby Vision. Cinemasterful
iPhone 16 Pro takes video capture to a whole new level with 4K 120 fps Dolby Vision — Apple highest resolution and frame rate combo yet. Enabled by the new 48MP Fusion camera with second-generation quad-pixel sensor and Apple powerful A18 Pro chip, iPhone 16 Pro lets you record 4K 120 fps Dolby Vision in video mode or slo-mo.
Highest-quality video in a smartphone.
And now you can adjust the playback speed after capture in the redesigned Photos app, giving you greater editing capabilities. To add a dreamy quality to your shot, try out the new half-speed option. Or for a cinematic effect, slow it right down to 24 fps playback.
iPhone 16 Pro also provides a big leap in audio performance with four studio-quality mics for higher-quality recording. They provide a lower noise floor so you get more true-to-life sounds. New Spatial Audio capture makes your videos sound more immersive when listening with AirPods. And thanks to wind noise reduction, the audio quality is even clearer.

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.
Presenting Apple Camera Interface
The new 48MP Fusion camera has a faster sensor and a new architecture called Apple Camera Interface, which moves data from the sensor to the chip more efficiently. This allows frame-by-frame, cinema-quality colour grading for 4K 120 fps Dolby Vision with the new image signal processor in the A18 Pro chip. The faster sensor also enables zero shutter lag for 48MP photos, all while minimising power and thermal impact.
You can capture 4K 120 fps ProRes and log recordings to an external storage device — a big plus for pro editing workflows that demand a high frame rate and colour grading control.
New 48MP Ultra Widecamera.Vive la Resolution
iPhone 16 Pro adds a second 48MP camera to the Pro camera system. The new 48MP Ultra Wide camera has a more advanced quad-pixel sensor for super-high-resolution 48MP ProRAW and HEIF photos with autofocus.
So you can capture a mesmerising new level of detail in macro photos and sweeping, wide-angle shots.
Macro: 0.5x Macro
13mm: 0.5x Ultra Wide
24mm: 1x Fusion 24mm
28mm: 1.2x Fusion 28mm
35mm: 1.5x Fusion 35mm
48mm: 2x Telephoto
120mm: 5x Telephoto
More zoom? Boom. Now you can shoot in 120mm with the 5x Telephoto camera on both Pro models and get sharper close-ups from further away. With multiple framing options, it’s like having seven pro lenses in your pocket, everywhere you go.
Sharper Shots. By Far
The 5x Telephoto camera has the longest optical zoom in an iPhone. To make it fit inside Apple compact Pro camera system, we used a state‑of‑the‑art tetraprism design — a folded glass structure below the lens — to reflect light rays four times over. This allows light to travel for longer in the same space, giving you a focal length that really goes the distance.
Choose Your Photographic Style Change it Up. Change it Back
Apple latest generation of Photographic Styles gives you greater creative flexibility than ever before, so you can make every photo even more you. And thanks to advances in apple image pipeline, you can now reverse any style, at any time.
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.
With the power of A18 Pro, you can see the style applied in a live preview — like professional colour grading in real time.
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 Pro Chip. A Colossally Capable Chip

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.[8]
Designed to Make a Difference
Environment
All Apple data centres run on 100% renewable energy.
iPhone 16 Pro uses more recycled metals than ever:
95% recycled lithium in the battery.[9]
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 Pro is 100% fibre based for the first time.[10] And it’s thinner, which reduces the carbon impact of shipping.[11]
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.
