As Apple is about to launch the iPhone 16 series in September, a photo believed to be an official promotional image for the new product has been leaked online.
On the 20th (local time), IT tipster Lakwinder Singh posted four images through his This is a sales page produced in Chinese and a promotional image for a new product to be used locally, and includes the design and some specification information of the regular and pro models.
Looking at the image related to the iPhone 16 general model, the color lineup consists of 5 types: ▲black ▲white ▲yellow ▲pink ▲blue. Except for the fact that ‘white’ replaces ‘green’ in the previous work, the composition is generally similar, and the tone, saturation, and texture of each color also appear similar.
However, it is important to note that the color information leaked this time is quite different from what IT industry officials in each country previously predicted. For example, Sony Dixon released a photo of a dummy unit for the iPhone 16 earlier this month. The new product colors released at the time were ▲white ▲black ▲blue ▲green ▲pink, etc., and showed deeper saturated colors and restrained matte tones.
Even in the image of the iPhone 16 Pro, the difference with the current opinion among experts can be clearly seen. Likewise, according to the dummy unit image released by Sony Dixon, the iPhone 16 Pro is expected to be available in four colors: ▲White Titanium ▲Black Titanium ▲Natural Titanium ▲Desert Titanium.
However, in this leaked image, we can confirm the existence of a new color model that is closer to the ‘Purple’ of the existing iPhone series, rather than ‘Desert Titanium’. It is known that colors such as purple, blue, and red with such light saturation are difficult to harmonize with the side chassis (frame).
Another image contains information on the main camera specifications of the iPhone 16 Pro. According to this, the wide-angle camera of the iPhone 16 Pro supports video and image recording of up to 48 million pixels. Compared to the previous work, the resolution has been improved by as much as four times. In addition, it is expected to support spatial video shooting compatible with Apple Vision Pro using the rear triple camera and sensors.
In addition, the iPhone 16 Pro is equipped with Apple Silicon’s new processor ‘A18 Pro’, and the same image contains information that optimizes the quality of shooting results based on the AI (artificial intelligence) function provided by the chip.
Meanwhile, another “If the 48-megapixel wide-angle camera lens is designed to support the Vision Pro’s spatial video capture, it should not be positioned diagonally from the other two lenses (as shown in the image),” he explained.
