According to multiple sources, the iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max are expected to have larger screen sizes this year, while the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus will have the same sizes as the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus.

Newly leaked 3D model images reveal the size differences between the iPhone 16 Pro and the iPhone 15 Pro released last year.

The iPhone 16 Pro is rumored to have a 6.3-inch screen, while the iPhone 16 Pro Max will have a 6.9-inch screen. In contrast, the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max have screens of 6.1 inches and 6.7 inches, respectively.

The remaining images also provide more details about the location of the dedicated camera button, which is similar in size to the power button.

Apple plans to replace the toggle switch on the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus with an Action button, which was previously exclusive to the iPhone 15 Pro models. However, images suggest the new Action button will be larger than the one on the current iPhone Pro models.

Notably, the redesigned rear camera, a long-rumored feature now confirmed by recently leaked 3D renderings of the iPhone 16, has been revealed. The pill-shaped protrusion houses separate wide-angle and ultra-wide-angle lenses on both the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus, no longer positioned diagonally across the square module as on the iPhone 15. The microphone is located between the two lenses, while the camera flash is on the back of the device, outside the camera module.

In addition to the details mentioned above, all four iPhone 16 models are expected to have a completely new button dedicated to taking photos and videos – the "Capture button" – located on the same side as the power button.

Rumors suggest the shutter button will be a mechanical rather than a capacitive one. According to The Information , it will react to pressure and touch, similar to the shutter button on professional cameras, with two stages: a light press to focus and more force to take the picture. The "Capture button" will have functions such as adjusting focus and zoom in addition to activating photo and video recording.

Apple believes the new button will be a highlight of the ‌iPhone 16‌ line and is introducing it to encourage iPhone users to shoot more videos. Apple will also focus on developing more new video recording features to boost sales of the new generation of iPhones.

The iPhone 16 series is expected to be released this September. Notably, the iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max will feature significant camera upgrades, support for Wi-Fi 7 and 5G Advance, and a graphene-based cooling system. The iPhone 16 series may also support AI generative technology, allowing users to interact with chatbots or create images using text directly on their phones.
