Product details

With camera controls, you can more easily and quickly access camera tools like zoom or depth of field, allowing you to capture the perfect photo in record time. The improved ultra-wide camera with autofocus lets you take incredibly detailed macro photos and videos. Capture stunning high-resolution images with the 48 MP Fusion camera or zoom in with 2x optical quality telephoto zoom. The next-generation photographic styles give you more creative flexibility, enabling you to personalize each photo even further. You can also revert all styles at any time. The A18 chip represents a leap of two generations from the A16 Bionic chip in the iPhone 15, enabling advanced photo and video features as well as console-level gaming with exceptional energy efficiency.

The iPhone 16 Plus works in tandem with the A18 chip, providing a real boost to battery life with up to 27 hours of video playback. Charge via USB-C or connect a MagSafe charger for faster wireless charging. The iPhone 16 Plus features a robust aerospace-grade aluminum design with a 6.7" Super Retina XDR display. It is extremely durable, with the latest generation Ceramic Shield on the front, which is 2x tougher than any other smartphone glass. The fastest way to access your favorite feature: simply press and hold to launch the desired function—like the flashlight, a voice memo, or silent mode. With iOS 18, you can tint the icons on your home screen in any color and find your favorite shots more quickly in the revamped Photos app. In iMessage, you can add playful, animated effects to words and phrases. With crash detection, the iPhone can recognize a severe car accident and call for help if you are unable to do so.

The new iPhone 16 and 16 Plus impress in the areas where Apple traditionally leads the field: the operating system, design and feel and the processor. The camera system is also strong again. In other areas, however, only mid-range is offered. We find it unforgivable that the OLED displays only manage 60 hertz and have no always-on function...
