Apple Smartphones

This new iPhone appears to be a replacement for what was previously the iPhone Plus model and its main selling point will be how thin and light it is.  The iPhone equivalent of what the iPad Air aimed to be.

• ultra thin 5-6mm’s thin
• likely to contain some titanium for weight reduction
• 6.5-6.7 inch screen (in between iPhone Pro and iPhone Pro Max screen sizes)
• OLED 120hz display
• Premium price
• Single camera on rear
• 24mp front camera sensor
• A19 chip (but not A19 Pro chip and less performant than the Pro)
• Minimum 8gb of Ram
• Battery life should be enough to get you through a day
• Likely to come in September of 2025

Today Apple announced the $799 6.1-inch iPhone 16 and the $899 6.7-inch iPhone 16 Plus.  Both start with 128gb of storage.  The main new feature, besides an allegedly 30% faster processor, is the Camera Control capability on the side of the devices.  Also featured is improved AI and Wi-Fi 7 support.  Well we’re not wowed by these phones, they are a solid incremental upgrade from Apple and as is often the case, you shouldn’t be disappointed by either.
