Apple is expected to manufacture the iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max in India, according to a Bloomberg report. Many observers are therefore hoping for a drop in the retail price of these devices in the country.
Specifications expected?
- Bigger screen: iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max are expected to feature a larger screen of 6.3 inches (up from 6.1 inches) and 6.9 inches (up from 6.7 inches) than their predecessors.
- Slimmer edges: Apple is said to be using a new BRS (Border Reduction Structure) technology for iPhone 16 Pro models, which could mean thinner edges than last year’s Pro models.
- Processors: iPhone 16 Pro models are expected to be equipped with A18 Pro chips. The standard versions of the iPhone 16 should be equipped with the A18 chipset (lower clock speed).
- New colour: The phones should be available in a new range of colours, including blue, green, pink, white and black. Leaks also suggest that Apple may be looking to add a new brownish hue to the iPhone 16 Pro series, which could be called Desert Titanium. Other rumours suggest that a gold colour option could be added this year.
- Camera: iPhone 16 Pro Max is rumoured to feature an improved 48-megapixel ultra-wide-angle camera. It will likely retain the tetraprism telephoto lens from its predecessor, the iPhone 15 Pro Max.
- Battery: The device could be powered by a 4.6-inch battery.
- Memory: The iPhone 16 Pro Max is likely to start with a base storage of 256GB and ditch the 128GB variant similar to the iPhone 15 Pro Max.
