- The new Apple iPhone – The 16th – is the latest member of the Iphone 16 family
- Even with similar looks, there are missing features
- A single camera exceeds the most, but it is also missing
While the iPhone 16th is the last member of the IPhone 16 family, Apple had to rebalance the list of features and equipment inside to reduce the price to $ 599 / £ 599 / $ 999 in. After all, it is $ 200 less than the starting price of the iPhone 16 in the United States, so certain features should simply go.
This does not mean that it is not filled with features, however. The iPhone 16th still gets an A18 processor for SWIFT performance and the possibility of running Apple Intelligence. It is also associated with a 6.1 inch Super Retina XDR screen, a single camera on the back, an identity document and a design that makes it compatible with the iPhone 16, 16 Plus, 16 pro and 16 pro max.
So what is missing? Well, in addition to losing a certain connectivity, it is also a story of cameras and how you charge the iPhone 16th – let’s dive.
A GPU nucleus less than the iPhone 16
Since it is more affordable than the iPhone 16, this small adjustment with the A18 processor made by Apple is not surprising. The iPhone 16th is always delivered with the A18 chip, but instead of a GPU with 5 cores like the iPhone 16, it only obtains 4 cores. It always has a 5 -core processor and a 16 -core neural engine, it is therefore likely that this slightly less powerful graphic processing unit does not make much difference in daily use.
Apple probably created this slightly less powerful A18 chip to keep it within the family. Alternatively, he could have used the A17 Pro chip, which has a 6 -hearted CPU, a GPU with 5 cores and a 16 -hearted neural engine, as it did with the iPad Mini.
Even so, expect the iPhone 16th to act and operate as an iPhone 16 – which means that iOS 18 and various applications should operate without a hitch.
Latest generation photographic styles and a goal
The first thing about the camera is quite obvious – the iPhone 16th simply has a goal, just like the iPhone that preceded it. Without ultrawid, you will be a little more limited in the types of photos that you can capture, and this excludes the possibility for the phone to take macro.
However, you end up with a significant upgrade on the third generation of the iPhone SE, because the main objective here is a 48 -megapixel fusion camera which can fire at 1x or 2x. You will have access to modify your catches in the Photos Application with the possibility of using AI to “clean” your photos. However, if you want to add your own push or explain how the iPhone draws, you will not get the most recent and the best of Apple photographic styles.
This is not a break, but you will not necessarily be able to finish and adjust them to your taste. The other piece of missing equipment is control of the camera – it is not there. However, with the arrival of the action button, you can define it to open the application of the camera.
Magsafe missing
One of my favorite parties of the iPhone, as it was introduced with the iPhone 12, is Magsafe – it facilitates wireless load and feeds an accessory ecosystem constantly increasing. I had great hopes that Apple would have launched the circular magnetic ring on its next affordable iPhone, but this is not the case.
The iPhone 16th simply offers a wireless load using the original IQ standard, as is the third generation predecessor of the iPhone SE. It can also load at a maximum of 7.5 watts, which is a little less than Magsafe or Qi-2.
A potential advantage, however, is without ring and a thinner loading coil, Apple could have been able to use a larger battery cell inside. Apple promises up to 26 hours of video playback, which is at the top of the iPhone 16.
No mmwave or ultra-width connectivity
Finally, with regard to missing significant things, the iPhone 16th only supports 5G under 6 GHz. This means that this iPhone cannot connect to the mmwave spectrum for potentially faster speeds. The iPhone 16 supports this, but it should be noted that Apple keeps this community with the iPhone is previous.
A larger form of missing connectivity here is, however, the ultra-large second-generation chip for Apple, which allows things like the search for precision with more recent arage or aerpos and is also used by some smart house gadgets to come like door locks. It is a strange omission, although it is probably made to reduce costs and separate the iPhone 16th from the iPhone 16.
While the iPhone 16th supports Bluetooth 5.3 like the iPhone 16, it only shaken Wi-Fi 6 against Wi-Fi 7. Wire connectivity is also missing here.
Only two colors
One of my favorite parties and many others in the iPhone 16 range was the norm and the more colors. In simple terms, they were delighted, fun and dynamic – really adding rocket to the iPhone and allowing you to choose the one that corresponded to your personal style.
For those who wanted to see an iPhone 16th ultramarine or pink, it does not happen … at least at launch. The iPhone 16th is available in black or white, the two matte options.
