In a latest development, the purported hands-on images of the upcoming iPhone 16 have surfaced online. These leaked images offer the glimpse into the potential design of Apple’s next flagship smartphone, revealing a major change in camera placement. It could come with vertically aligned camera setup. Read all details here.

The upcoming iPhone 16 series is anticipated to go official in less than a month. Even though the speculated launch is still a few weeks away, a recent leak offers us a sneak peek at what the regular model will look like this year. The recent hands-on photos that a Reddit user was able to secure, appear to be the iPhone 16 dummy units. They display the back of the phone, showing off its two colour possibilities as well as its seemingly revamped rear camera unit.

Kaxeno (u/kaxeno5), a Reddit member, shared purported hands-on images of the iPhone 16. The pictures, which seem to be mockups of the phone, indicate that the phone will come in black and white colour variants. They display the phone's back side together with the twin rear camera unit arranged vertically.

The iPhone X-like camera module, which has a pill-shaped design is likely to support Spatial video recording. The current iPhone 15 has a diagonal camera setup, and only the iPhone 15 Pro model can record in spatial video. It looks that the iPhone 16's primary camera island does not include the flash. The rear panel is off to the right of the two cameras and the module when it is seen flush. This revamp is in line with earlier leaks.

iPhone 16 Expected Specifications


The iPhone 16 is anticipated to be released in blue, green, and pink colours in addition to the standard shades of black and white. This year, Apple is reportedly going to select more vibrant colours for the gadget. The phone is expected to have a 6.1-inch OLED display and could be carrying an Action button, which is currently exclusive to the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max.

The iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus models are likely to come equipped with an A18 Bionic chip based on TSMC's 3nm process, whereas, the iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max are tipped to run on an A18 Pro chip.

iPhone 15 Features

The iPhone 15 is powered with A16 Bionic chip, gorgeous OLED display, and improved camera system. It is the ideal partner for both work and play. The handset is perfect for multitasking smoothly. It features a color-infused glass and aluminum design. The phone has a Ceramic Shield front and the 6.1" Super Retina XDR display with up to 2x brighter in the sun compared to iPhone 14.
