According to previous reports, the iPhone 16 Pro Max may be equipped with a 6.9-inch large screen. The peak brightness is also expected to be further improved. Some rumors also claim that the display borders will get thinner than the predecessor (from 1.55mm to 1.15mm).
When it comes to performance, the iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max
are likely to be equipped with the A18 Pro chip, which will not only have more CPU power than the A17 Pro but will also be able to better perform the on-device AI tasks. The A18 Pro chip is said to be fabricated on TSMC’s 2nd generation 3nm process. iPhone 16 series launch date tipped
Speaking of the non-Pro models, it’s still not clear whether Apple will use the same A18 Pro chip or use last year’s chipset, just as the company has done with the last two generations of iPhones. According to a report from last month, Apple was indeed planning to use the A17 Pro chip in the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus. However, the backend code suggests that the company will use the “A18 chipset” in this year’s non-Pro models. It could be a slightly cut-down version of the A18 Pro. Nonetheless, these are still rumors and the company is yet to make things official.
