The dust over iPhone 15 has settled and now the Apple fans are looking at the upcoming iPhone 16 launch now. With the annual Apple event looming large on the horizon, anticipation for the iPhone 16 is reaching fever pitch.

While Apple is notoriously tight-lipped about upcoming products, a flurry of leaks and rumours has offered glimpses into what could be in store for the next generation of iPhones. Here’s a rundown of the top five rumoured features that we can expect in the upcoming iPhones this year.

The Big Zoom

One of the most talked-about upgrades is the potential inclusion of a periscope lens in the iPhone 16 Pro models. According to a report by DigitTimes, the company plans to use tetraprism camera components for better zoom capabilities, with Taiwanese manufacturers Largan Precision and Genius Electronic Optical (GSEO) as key suppliers. The new lenses could offer up to 5x optical zoom and 25x digital zoom. The iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max are expected to feature these advanced 5x zoom lenses. Additionally, the iPhone 16 Pro series will likely include upgraded camera sensors, with the Max Pro model boasting a 48-megapixel Sony IMX903 sensor and the iPhone 16 Pro featuring a 48-megapixel Sony IMX803 sensor, similar to the current iPhone 15 Pro models.

The A17 Bionic Chip powerhouse

Apple is expected to introduce the A17 Bionic chip, the successor to the already impressive A16. This new chip promises to deliver even faster processing speeds, enhanced graphics capabilities, and improved energy efficiency.

Big displays for bigger experiences

Rumours suggest that the iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max models could feature larger displays compared to their predecessors. This increase in screen real estate would provide a more immersive viewing experience for content consumption and multitasking.

Improved battery life

Battery life has been a consistent area of focus for Apple, and the iPhone 16 is expected to build on these improvements. With advancements in battery technology and power management, users can anticipate longer-lasting devices.

New colours

iPhone 16 is said to be available in seven colours – blue, pink, yellow, black, green, white and purple. Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo predicts that new phone will come in black, green, pink, blue and white.
