Performance-wise, the iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max are equipped with A18 processor with enhanced neural engine optimised for AI tasks.

The one significant design change is the introduction of a dedicated, touch sensitive button on the right side of the phone.This button functions like a traditional camera shutter, allowing users to focus and capture photos with precision. Additionally, its capacitive nature enables easy switching between still and video modes, as well as zooming in and out.

The upgraded camera system introduces a new 48MP Fusion camera with a faster, more efficient quad-pixel sensor and Apple Camera Interface, unlocking 4K120 fps video recording in Dolby Vision.

The quad-pixel sensor can read data 2x faster, enabling zero shutter lag for 48MP ProRAW or HEIF photos. A new 48MP ultra-wide camera also features a quad-pixel sensor with autofocus, so users can take higher-resolution 48MP ProRAW and HEIF images.

The 5x Telephoto camera now comes on both iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max.

The iPhone 16 Pro also brings new options  to edit video sound with Audio Mix. The new feature allows users to adjust their sound after capture to focus on the voice of the person on camera, make it sound like the video was recorded inside a professional studio, claims Apple.
