Cupertino, July 16: The iPhone 16 series is nearing its launch as September approaches. The iPhone 16 series is expected to include iPhone 16, iPhone 16 Plus, iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max models. There have been rumours about Apple stopping the Plus variant or introducing an Ultra variant since the iPhone 15 series was launched in 2023. However, this time, many reports claim that the upcoming iPhones will have a notable change in the design. 

According to multiple reports, the new iPhone 16 models are expected to launch in September 2024, including four models: iPhone 16, 16 Plus, 16 Pro, and 16 Pro. The company might keep the order of the smartphone lineup just like the 15 series. For months, reports have pointed out that the upcoming Apple smartphones would launch with a larger display, bigger battery, and powerful new processor, i.e., an A18 Bionic chipset. Samsung Galaxy Tab 10 Series Launch in October 2024; Check Expected Specifications and Features of Upcoming Galaxy Tab 10+ and Galaxy Tab 10 Ultra.

The reports highlighted that the display on the upcoming series would be larger. The iPhone 16 standard model might have a 6.1-inch smaller display, and the iPhone 16 Plus might have a 6.7-inch larger display. Coming to the Pro models, the iPhone 16 Pro is expected to boast a 6.3-inch display slightly larger than the standard model and the iPhone 16 Pro Max might have a 6.9-inch display. As per recent reports, the camera module will get a "tetraprism" lens that might offer up to 5x optical zoom. Rumours also say that the tetraprism lens will continue in the iPhone 17 series and iPhone 18 series. Redmi Pad SE 4G Launch Confirmed on July 29; Check Details of Upcoming Redmi Tablet Featuring New Design.
