Online leaks about the iPhone 16 have already begun to appear. According to the most recent rumor circulating online, the iPhone 16 may very well have larger and sharper screens. It is anticipated, nevertheless, that the pro versions would likely have somewhat larger panels, while the base ones will just have the usual size. Considerable information has also surfaced on the iPhone 16’s battery. Let’s examine what the tipsters have to say about the future iPhone 16’s battery life.
Insiders in the supply chain claim that the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus may have screens that measure 6.12 inches and 6.69 inches, respectively, employing a technology known as LTPS 60Hz, according to a report from a South Korean media outlet named Naver. These dimensions would probably be comparable to those of the standard iPhone 15 models, with some undefined variations possible.
More substantial modifications, nevertheless, are anticipated for the Pro models. There are rumors stating that the 6.86-inch LTPO screen on the Pro Max (Ultra) may be the same as the 6.27-inch LTPO display on the iPhone 16 Pro. In contrast, the screen sizes of the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max were 6.1 and 6.7 inches, respectively. However, given the purportedly enormous screen size of the iPhone 16 Pro Max, it’s advisable to proceed with caution when interpreting this information.
Separately, purported prototype images of the iPhone 16 Pro’s battery were made public on X.com according to a leak from Kosutami San. These photos display a metallic casing that is frosted, along with a battery that is around 2.5 percent bigger than the previous model. The iPhone 16 Pro versions may go from having a black foil battery case to a metallic one if this leak turns out to be true. This modification may increase thermal efficiency without appreciably changing the weight, as we’ve previously seen in more recent Apple Watches beginning with the Series 7.
According to sources, all iPhone 16 versions will have graphene heat sinks for thermal management. These sinks have improved heat conductivity, which might help the future iPhones dissipate heat more effectively.
