Subj : Leaked iPhone 16 case models tease bigger sizes for the Pro and P To : All From : TechnologyDaily Date : Mon Apr 29 2024 11:30:05 Leaked iPhone 16 case models tease bigger sizes for the Pro and Pro Max Date: Mon, 29 Apr 2024 10:26:36 +0000 Description: New leaked iPhone 16 dummy units corroborate previous rumors we've heard regarding iPhone 16 screen sizes. FULL STORY ====================================================================== Weve long suspected that the iPhone 16 series will tear up the rulebook when it comes to iPhone screen sizes , and the latest set of leaked iPhone 16 case dummies shows how these rumored size changes could manifest in reality. Shared to X by Apple tipster Sonny Dickson (via PhoneArena ), a new iPhone 16 dummy unit picture displays all four rumored iPhone 16 models thats the iPhone 16, iPhone 16 Plus, iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max side-by-side, in descending order of premium-ness. As you can see below, the iPhone 16 Pro Max is listed as being the largest phone of the lot, at 6.9 inches (up from last years 6.7-inch size), while the iPhone 16 Pro also gets a size bump, from 6.1 inches to 6.3 inches. The iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus are listed as remaining at 6.1 inches and 6.7 inches, respectively, which fits with all previous rumors weve heard so far regarding iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus screen sizes . pic.twitter.com/tVNl82VjYx April 28, 2024 See more As well as screen sizes, these new iPhone 16 dummy units appear to corroborate the rumor that the cameras on the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus will be arranged vertically , rather than diagonally (as on the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus ). Why might Apple be going back to this iPhone 12 -style design? For our money, spatial video could be the reason: while the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max can capture spatial video (i.e. 3D-style content viewable on the Apple Vision Pro headset), the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus cant. The theory is that the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max can use their two vertically-arranged lenses to shoot from two slightly different camera angles at the same time, but the same approach isnt possible on the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus. So, by adding vertically-arranged camera lenses to the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus, Apple could open up the spatial video format to a larger audience, thus encouraging more Apple Vision Pro sales. Alternatively, the company might just prefer the iPhone 12 camera style, but were keeping our fingers crossed that the spatial video rumor is true. The iPhone 16 will reportedly look a lot like the iPhone 12 (Image credit: Apple) As for the cameras on the iPhone 16 Pro and the iPhone 16 Pro Max, their arrangement is expected to be unchanged, and that rings true in this latest set of dummy images. However, the increased screen size of both models will reportedly allow for an ultrawide camera upgrade on the iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max , and an optical zoom range boost for the iPhone 16 Pro Max . Its worth noting that dummy units despite being used by case makers to ensure that their cases fit upcoming phones are not always 100% accurate, so wed still take every iPhone 16 rumor listed in this article with a pinch of salt. Mind you, these latest dummies align with other leaked iPhone 16 dummies weve already seen, so were quietly confident that we know exactly what to expect from the iPhone 16 and its siblings.
