Will iPhone sales slow down because the iPhone 16 lacks appeal?

According to PhoneArena , in his report, researcher Tim Long from Barclays suggests that this stems from the fact that the iPhone 16 series lacks major features or upgrades to make them more appealing. However, it's worth noting that Long has generally held a pessimistic view of Apple since Barclays began researching the Cupertino-based company in 2019.

Will sales of the iPhone 16 series slow down because they don't offer many innovations?

Previously, Long had predicted a slowdown in the growth rate of Apple's services business unit, and argued that adding 5G support to the iPhone 12 line in 2020 would not lead to higher sales. However, the results showed the opposite.

The doubts surrounding Long's statement are entirely justified, given that the iPhone 16 series is said to have a significant change in screen size on the Pro models, with the iPhone 16 Pro and 16 Pro Max having corresponding screen sizes of 6.3 inches and 6.9 inches respectively.

Furthermore, the iPhone 16 Pro will also feature a periscope telephoto camera like the top-of-the-line version, and all four models will have a new "Capture" button to give users the ability to start recording video with just one touch.

Reportedly, the iPhone is Apple's most important product, accounting for approximately 50% of its annual revenue. Due to a slowdown in product growth, Apple is looking to expand its business, with its services segment performing quite well recently.
