The Apple "Highlight Moment" press conference is about to be held, and various spoilers and speculations have almost pieced together a puzzle. What are the highlights worth looking forward to for iPhone 16 and other new Apple products?
At 1am Beijing time on September 10th, Apple will hold a special event with the theme of "Highlight Moment". At that time, the company will launch its latest iPhone and lay the foundation for a new artificial intelligence platform.
The most important product release is undoubtedly the iPhone 16 series, but Apple has also prepared significant updates for the Apple Watch and AirPods.
A set of artificial intelligence tools, including the updated Siri digital assistant, Apple Intelligence, will also be the highlight. Renowned technology journalist Mark Gurman stated in his latest column that the theme of this event, "Highlight Moment," is a hint at Siri's new interface.
There are still 4 models of iPhone 16, and the 'camera button' may be the biggest design highlight
As in previous years, Apple will launch four new iPhone models: iPhone 16, 16 Plus, 16 Pro, and 16 Pro Max.
In terms of appearance, like last year, the Pro version incorporates more new designs, while the non Pro version of the iPhone has relatively fewer changes.
The most obvious change in appearance is the size. The iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max will be equipped with larger 6.3-inch and 6.9-inch displays (the previous generation models were 6.1-inch and 6.7-inch), while the bezels will be reduced by about one-third, making their overall appearance more stylish.
It is worth noting that according to Gulman's disclosure, both Pro models will feature a dedicated capacitive "Capture Button" on the right side of the phone for taking photos and videos. Gurman praised it as "the biggest selling point of the new iPhone besides artificial intelligence". Some foreign media also refer to it as the "biggest selling point" because consumers may prefer practical camera functions over AI that is not yet needed.
The working mode of this sensing button is similar to the shutter button on a digital SLR camera. When the user lightly presses it, focusing can be achieved, and pressing it hard can take photos. By sliding, you can also switch between photo and video modes, and zoom in and out.
Except for size and photo button, the iPhone 16 Pro version will retain the exterior design of the iPhone 15 Pro series.
The iPhone 16 and 16 Plus models will have a similar appearance to the previous version, featuring 6.1-inch and 6.7-inch screen sizes and still using an aluminum casing.
In terms of camera layout, iPhone 16 and 16 Plus will no longer follow the diagonal design of iPhone 15, but instead adopt a vertical camera layout. Unlike the previous rectangular edge wrapping, the new design adopts a pill shaped protrusion design. This is to enable non Pro models to also support spatial video recording, so that 3D videos can be watched using Apple's Vision Pro headset.
The new generation of non Pro models will also be equipped with an Action Button. On the previous generation models, only the Pro version and two models were equipped with an Action Button. This button, combined with custom settings and shortcut commands, can be used for taking screenshots, enabling conversation translation, and more.
The Pro version will replace blue with gold, while the non Pro version will add white
Apple introduces new color options on its flagship product iPhone every year to meet the diverse needs of users.
In terms of color, the iPhone 16 has made some adjustments compared to the previous generation model.
The latest news predicts that the Pro model will have a total of 4 colors, in addition to black titanium, white titanium, and natural titanium, it will also launch a gold titanium alloy to replace the previous blue titanium alloy.
Regarding the new color of gold titanium alloy, there are also reports that it is referred to as "desert titanium metal color" or "bronze titanium metal color". The early exposed model machines showed a new color leaning towards brown, but later there were reports that this new color was closer to bronze.
Gulman commented on social media that the golden color "looks impressive, not as bad as early renderings".
The non Pro version will use 5 colors, including blue, pink, black, and green, and white will replace yellow. There are reports that the increase in white color may drive the sales of iPhone 16 in China.
Additionally, there are reports that unlike the soft tones of the iPhone 15 series, this year's iPhone series may have increased color saturation.
Performance upgrade with added materials, 8GB of memory may become standard
The iPhone 16 series will bring users a better user experience by improving processor performance, optimizing screen display, and enhancing camera functionality. Especially in the Pro series, its high refresh rate screen and stronger camera capabilities will enhance gaming, video, and photography experiences.
The iPhone 16 series is expected to come standard with 8GB of RAM, which will help support artificial intelligence Apple Intelligence and other features. This configuration is the first of its kind in Apple products.
In terms of chips, the iPhone 16 standard version will be equipped with the A18 chip, while the Pro series will be equipped with the more powerful A18 Pro chip.
In terms of cameras, according to multiple reports, both the iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max ultra wide angle cameras will be upgraded from 12 million pixels to 48 million pixels this year. In low light environments, the camera's photography effect will be better. Images will provide more details and better colors, and higher resolution will also provide greater flexibility for post-processing. And supports recording spatial videos at 4K resolution.
In addition, both iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max will offer at least 5x optical zoom.
In terms of screen, the standard version continues the 60Hz refresh rate, but the Pro series offers a 120Hz high refresh rate OLED screen.
In addition, the industry speculates that Apple will also launch AirPods 4 and a new generation of Apple Watch series at this event.
Among them, the Apple Watch 10 will have significant changes in size. According to foreign media reports, the new Apple Watch will offer two different size options, increasing from the original 41mm and 45mm to 45mm and 49mm respectively; Sources have revealed that the Apple Watch 10 may introduce sleep apnea and hypertension detection features, but the actual implementation of these features remains uncertain.
At 1am Beijing time on September 10th, the "highlight moment" press conference will be held at Apple's headquarters in Cupertino, California, and everything will be revealed at that time.
