This year, all four iPhone models are tipped to come with support for Apple Intelligence features while the ‘Plus’ variant is rumored to feature a smaller battery compared to its predecessor.

The standard models will also be available in 256GB and 512GB configurations while the Pro models will be sold in 512GB and 1TB variants, as per the post on X.
iPhone 16, iPhone 16 Plus specs (leaked)
Both the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus will be powered by Apple’s rumored A18 chipset, according to the latest leak. They are also expected to come with 8GB of RAM, as the post claims they will support Apple Intelligence features that are limited to the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max.
The standard model is said to come with a 6.1-inch display with a 60Hz refresh rate while the Plus model will sport a 6.7-inch screen. In terms of the display, not much seems to have changed from the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus. The phones are also expected to support 2x optical zoom on the primary camera and come with support for Wi-Fi 6E connectivity.
Apple is expected to equip the iPhone 16 with a larger 3,561mAh battery (teardowns of the iPhone 15 revealed it had a 3,349mAh capacity), while the larger iPhone 16 Plus could come with a much smaller 4,006mAh battery, compared to its predecessor, which had a 4,383mAh battery.

The alleged iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max will come with 6.3-inch and 6.9-inch displays respectively, marking a slight increase of 0.2-inch in screen size. A recent report also suggested that the Pro Max model will feature the thinnest display bezels in the industry. Both of Apple’s upcoming Pro models are said to be powered by the company’s A18 Pro chipset and the devices will come with support for Apple Intelligence features.
Unlike the standard iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus models, Apple’s premium models will come equipped with a higher-resolution 48-megapixel ultra-wide camera, according to the post on X. Both the iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max are said to come with support for 5x optical zoom, suggesting the company has equipped them with its “tetraprism” periscope lens.
This year, Apple is tipped to upgrade the battery capacities of both the iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max. The former is said to come with a 3,355mAh battery, while the larger model could pack a 4,676mAh battery.
