The iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus are smartphones developed and marketed by Apple.
They are the eighteenth-generation iPhones, succeeding the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15
Plus. The devices were unveiled alongside the higher-priced iPhone 16 Pro and 16
Pro Max during the Apple Event at Apple Park in Cupertino, California, on September
9, 2024.[4]
History
The devices were unveiled during an event on September 9, 2024, marking the first
time an iPhone release had been announced on a Monday.[5] It is also the first
iPhone not to include Apple stickers in the box, as Apple removed them for
environmental reasons. Stickers can be included if a customer asks for them at an
Apple Store.[6]
Design
Like the iPhone 15, the device features rounded edges, a slightly curved display,
and back glass.
Material
The iPhone 16 is equipped with an aluminum design with a color infused glass back.
Display
The iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus retain their screen sizes of 6.1 inches and 6.7
inches, respectively. They feature a full-edge screen design with slim borders.[7]
