Camera System

New camera system. Go to great lengths to get the perfect shot.

The versatile new iPhone 16 camera system captures beautiful photos — from up close or far away. The two-in-one 48MP Fusion camera lets you take stunning super-high-resolution images, or zoom in with the 2x optical-quality Telephoto. The Ultra Wide camera shoots extreme close-up macro photos or wider, more expansive pictures. Altogether, it’s like having four lenses in your pocket. And with spatial capture, you can even take photos and videos in 3D, which you can watch with Apple Vision Pro.

Ultra Wide camera

Ultra Wide camera. Focus on the little things.
And the bigger picture.

The new Ultra Wide camera with autofocus takes incredibly sharp, detailed macro photos and videos. You can also frame more expansive scenes without taking a step back. And because it has a larger aperture and bigger pixels, it can capture up to 2.6x more light for higher image quality — even in low light.

For compelling close-ups with exceptional detail.

With its realigned cameras, iPhone 16 lets you take magical photos and videos in a whole new way using spatial capture. So you can relive those moments in immersive 3D with Apple Vision Pro.

How to take spatial photos and videos

Audio

Audio Mix. Make your voice heard.

Powered by advanced intelligence and Spatial Audio capture, Audio Mix lets you adjust the way voices sound in your videos using three different voice options. Want to decrease background sound? Or just focus on the voices that are in frame? Simply select the mix and adjust intensity to get the sound you want after video capture.

In-frame

Only captures the voices of the people on camera, even if people off-camera are talking during the recording.

Studio

Makes voices sound like you’re recording in a professional studio equipped with sound-dampening walls. Great for vloggers or podcasters because the recording will sound like the mic is close to the subject’s mouth, even if it’s a few feet away.

Cinematic

Captures all of the voices around you and consolidates them toward the front of the screen — just like sound is formatted for the movies.

Photographic Style

Choose your
Photographic Style. Change it up.

Lock in your look.

We’ve created new styles that let you dial in your exact desired look with more advanced skin-tone rendering and set it across your photos. And thanks to the powerful A18 chip, you can see the change in a live preview before you apply it.

Our improved image pipeline also enables more creative styles, which allow you to customize the different moods of a photo through color.

Personalize every style even more with the new control pad, which makes it easy to adjust tone and color simultaneously. You can also use the slider to adjust the intensity of the specific colors, instead of applying a one-size-fits-all approach.

Durable design

Durable design. Who says beauty
isn’t meant to last.

iPhone 16 has a sturdy, aerospace-grade aluminum enclosure and strong — and beautiful — color-infused glass on the back. The latest-generation Ceramic Shield material is superdurable. And a new internal design dissipates heat more efficiently, so you’ll get better performance overall, especially when it comes to gaming.

Latest-generation Ceramic Shield is even tougher.

Action button

Action button. Do more. Wait less.

The Action button on iPhone 16 is a fast track to your favorite feature. Just press and hold to launch the action you want — the flashlight, a voice memo, Silent mode, and more. You can also set up Shortcuts to open an app, run a series of tasks, or change actions depending on the time of day or your location. Or use it to take actions in an app, like setting an alarm or even ordering your favorite coffee drink.

iOS 18

iOS 18. Customize. Stylize.
Mesmerize.

Personalize your Home Screen. Tint your icons with any color. Rearrange and resize apps and widgets. You can even lock or hide apps to protect sensitive information — it’s your call.
Choose your controls. Swap out your Lock Screen controls for ones you love to use more often. Or you can assign a control to the Action button.

Get expressive with text. Add playful, animated effects to any word, phrase, or emoji in iMessage — many of which are automatically suggested as you type.

Safety

In an emergency,
iPhone has your back.

Crash Detection uses hardware sensors and advanced motion algorithms to detect a severe car crash, then call emergency services and notify your emergency contacts when you can’t.⁶

Designed to make a difference.

Environment

All Apple data centers run on 100% renewable electricity.

iPhone 16 uses more recycled metals than ever: over 95% recycled lithium in the battery.⁷ 100% recycled gold in the plating of the USB-C connector and camera wires. 100% recycled copper foil in the MagSafe inductive charger.

The packaging for iPhone 16 is 100% fiber based for the first time.⁸ And it's thinner, which reduces the carbon impact for shipping.⁹

Privacy

The new Passwords app makes it even easier to access account passwords, passkeys, Wi-Fi passwords, two-factor authentication codes, and more. It stores them securely and syncs across your devices with end-to-end encryption.

You can also control which contacts to share with an app, rather than giving it access to all your contacts. And you can choose to share more contacts over time.

Accessibility

Eye Tracking makes it possible to navigate your iPhone and use your favorite apps just by moving your eyes, thanks to the power of machine learning and the front-facing camera.

Music Haptics matches the iPhone Taptic Engine with the rhythm of songs. So people who are deaf or hard of hearing can enjoy the Apple Music catalog in a whole new way.

Vocal Shortcuts helps people with severe atypical speech record sounds that trigger specific actions on iPhone — set a timer, take a screenshot, scroll up and down, and more.

Significant others.

You can copy images, video, or text from your iPhone directly on your Mac, then paste into another app on your nearby Mac, as well as, answer calls or messages from your iPhone. And with iCloud, you can access your favorite files from either your iPhone or Mac.
Misplaced your iPhone? The latest Apple Watch models can show you its approximate distance and direction.¹⁰ To set up a group photo on your iPhone, join the group and use Apple Watch as a viewfinder to snap the shot. And when you take a call on your Apple Watch, just tap your iPhone to continue the conversation there.
