iPhone 16's 'bigger battery'
All iPhone 16 models will run iOS 18 on the new A18 processor, which is capable of tapping into the company's new Apple Intelligence AI features. Apple says the iPhone 16 will have a "bigger battery," but it didn't reveal how much longer the battery will last during the presentation.
Looking at the specs page, Apple now says that the iPhone 16 will have 2 more hours of video playback compared with the iPhone 15 (for both watching videos stored locally and streaming videos). The iPhone 16 Plus will have 1 more hour of local video playback and 4 more hours of streaming video playback.
Like the iPhone 15 line, the phones will be able to physically charge over USB-C or wirelessly over MagSafe or Qi2. MagSafe charging can now take advantage of faster 25-watt speeds, an increase from the max of 15 watts on the iPhone 15. (Qi-based wireless charging remains at 15 watts for Qi2 chargers and 7.5 watts for older Qi chargers.)
The new base iPhone 16 and 16 Plus colors are white, black, ultramarine (blue), teal (green) and pink, and they look bright and colorful in person.
Between the new Camera Control and Action button, along with a new processor and camera improvements, the iPhone 16 seems like a notable improvement over the iPhone 15. But the big question on everyone's minds will likely be whether Apple Intelligence is worth the upgrade, since these new phones are among the only models to run Apple's new AI features. We'll know more once we've had the chance to spend more time with it and when Apple Intelligence rolls out.
