As the fall season approaches, anticipation is building for Apple’s next flagship smartphone, the iPhone 16 Pro. While the official announcement is still a few months away, a steady stream of leaks and rumors has given us a good idea of what to expect.

Bigger and Brighter Display
One of the most persistent rumors is that the iPhone 16 Pro models will feature larger screens. The standard Pro model is expected to grow to around 6.3 inches (up from 6.1), and the Pro Max is rumored to increase to 6.9 inches (up from 6.7). This extra screen real estate will provide a more immersive experience for watching videos and playing games. The displays are also expected to be brighter and more efficient, thanks to new OLED technology.
📸 The New ‘Capture’ Button for Photography
Perhaps the most exciting new hardware feature is the rumored ‘Capture’ button. This is expected to be a new, dedicated button located on the side of the phone, designed to enhance the camera experience. Leaks suggest that this button will be pressure-sensitive, allowing users to focus the camera with a light press and take a photo or start recording with a full press, mimicking the feel of a traditional camera’s shutter button. This would be a fantastic addition for mobile photographers and videographers.
⚙️ Performance Boost with the A18 Pro Chip
As with every new generation, the iPhone 16 Pro is expected to receive a significant performance upgrade with a new chip, likely to be called the A18 Pro. This next-generation processor will undoubtedly be faster and more efficient than its predecessor, providing even smoother performance for demanding applications and games. A key focus of the new chip is also expected to be on its Neural Engine, which will provide a massive boost for on-device artificial intelligence and machine learning tasks, powering the new AI features expected in iOS 18.
