At a Glance iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max
Set to come out in the fall of 2024, the iPhone 16 Pro models are expected to feature bigger display sizes, upgraded camera technology, new modem chips, and more.
We’re a few months away from the debut of the 2024 iPhones, but as is typical, leakers, analysts, and others with insider information are already sharing details on the new devices.
The iPhone 16 Pro and 16 Pro Max will increase in size, and this will be the first size update we’ve had in several years. The iPhone 16 Pro will measure in at 6.3 inches (up from 6.1), while the Pro Max will measure in at 6.9 inches (up from 6.7).
The standard iPhone 16 models will not change in size. Aside from a tweak to the size, we are not expecting major design changes to the iPhone 16 models.
Apple is designing new A-series chips for the iPhone 16 Pro models, built on the latest N3E 3-nanometer node. We could see some improvements to efficiency and performance, but we haven’t yet heard details on just what we can expect.
The Action Button that was initially limited to the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max will be coming to all four iPhone 16 models, and there’s also rumored to be an extra “Capture” button for taking photos and videos.
Size Updates and Design Changes
The iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max will have larger display sizes, according to multiple sources.
The iPhone 16 Pro will have a display that’s 6.27 inches in size (rounded to 6.3), while the iPhone 16 Pro Max is expected to have a display that’s 6.85 inches in size (rounded to 6.9).
With the larger display size, the dimensions of the iPhone’s body will also increase.
Both models are expected to be taller and wider than the iPhone 15 Pro models, and while thickness will remain the same, the weight will increase slightly due to the larger size.
