iPhone 16 Pro versions to have bigger displays

The iPhone 15 lineup is projected to be replaced by the iPhone 16 Pro series, which is anticipated to include bigger displays. The iPhone 16 Pro Max is expected to have a 6.85-inch panel, while the iPhone 16 Pro is expected to have a 6.27-inch display. Users will be able to enjoy a larger and more immersive visual experience with these models.

As per report, Apple will increase the size of the Pro-series iPhones. The standard iPhone 16 and 16 Plus models will have a 60Hz display, similar to their iPhone 15 counterparts. Meanwhile, the Pro variants are likely to offer a higher refresh rate with a 120Hz screen.

At present, iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Pro feature 6.1-inch OLED displays and the iPhone 15 Plus and iPhone 15 Pro Max have larger 6.7-inch OLED displays.

The iPhone 15 Pro models were released last September and a new Action Button that serves as a replacement for the iconic mute switch has been introduced. The button enables users to do various actions. This feature is limited to iPhone 15 Pro models.

As per another report, the entire iPhone 16 lineup may come with the Action Button this year.

Apple is also planning a design change for the standard iPhone 16 models, potentially reverting to the vertical camera layout seen in the iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 mini, the report said.

The report also reveals that the iPhone 16 Pro Max might be the first to have a super telephoto periscope camera, offering significantly increased optical zoom. It is expected that both iPhone 16 Pro models will include 5x optical zoom, a feature currently exclusive to the iPhone 15 Pro Max.

Also, iOS 18 may come up with new Siri features powered by large language models, while on-device AI features may stay exclusive to the iPhone 16 models.

As per the report, iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus are likely to feature an A17 chip, but it’s rumored to be a different version than the A17 Pro chip used in the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max models.
