Take total Camera Control. Now you can capture the perfect photo or video in record time. With Camera Control, you can access the camera tools more easily and quickly. Just swipe to adjust features like exposure and aperture, switch between lenses, or use the digital zoom — to frame exactly the way you want. The versatile new camera in iPhone 16 shoots beautifully — both close-up and at a distance. The 48MP Fusion camera enables stunning images with ultra-high resolution, or 2x Telephoto zoom with optical quality. The Ultra Wide camera captures macro shots in extreme close-up or wider and more expansive photos. It's like carrying four lenses in your pocket. And spatial recording enables 3D photos and videos. The new Ultra Wide camera with autofocus captures incredibly sharp and detailed macro photos and videos. You can also frame wider shots without stepping back. And thanks to its wide aperture and larger pixels, it can capture up to 2.6x more light for higher quality — even in low-light conditions.
Spatial recording. With its precisely positioned cameras, iPhone 16 allows magical photos and videos in an entirely new way — through spatial recording. Powered by advanced intelligence and Spatial Audio, Audio Mix allows you to adjust voice in your videos with three different options. Want to reduce background noise? Or focus only on the voices in frame? Just choose a mix and set the desired intensity — even after the video is recorded.
The latest generation of Photographic Styles gives you more creative freedom than ever before. To express more of yourself in every photo. And you can always add, change, or remove a style. We've created new styles that allow you to adjust exactly how you want them to look. With improved skin tone rendering that you can use in every shot. With the powerful A18 Pro, you see the selected style on the screen — like professional real-time color grading. With our improved image processing pipeline, you can apply more creative styles that shift the mood of the photo through color. Customize each style with the new control pad, which lets you easily adjust tone and color simultaneously. You can use the slider to change the intensity of each individual color, instead of applying a uniform effect.
Meet the A18 — a custom chip that outperforms the A16 Bionic in iPhone 15 by two generations. And it powers next-level photo features like Photographic Styles and Camera Control. All this with exceptional energy efficiency for longer battery life. iPhone 16 has a larger battery, which works together with A18 to deliver significantly improved charge — even with so many new features. So you can play longer, binge-watch, and listen to music — and more.
iPhone 16 comes with a reliable aerospace-grade aluminum body and strong and beautiful colored glass back. The material of the latest generation Ceramic Shield is ultra-durable. And the new internal design dissipates heat more efficiently — for better performance, especially when it comes to gaming.
The Action button on iPhone 16 is a quick shortcut to your favorite function. Just press and hold to launch the desired action — flashlight, voice memo, silent mode, and more. You can also add a Shortcut to open an app, run a series of tasks, or trigger different actions based on time of day or location. Or use it within apps, for example to set an alarm, or even order your favorite coffee.
In case of an emergency, you can count on iPhone. Crash Detection uses hardware sensors and innovative motion algorithms to detect a severe accident and call emergency services or notify your emergency contacts if you’re unresponsive.
