iPhone 16 upgrades

Apple Intelligence

Firstly, let’s talk about the hottest upgrade everyone has been buzzing about: Apple Intelligence. Introduced during Apple’s WWDC 2024 event, this generative AI feature has captured significant attention. However, as usual, along with the excitement, Apple has also faced some criticism. Apple Intelligence will only work on devices running on the A17 chip or higher. This means the standard iPhone 15 models won’t have access to it, but the iPhone 16 will feature it.

Redesigned camera module

According to a report by MacRumors, the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus will feature a redesigned camera module. Since the iPhone 11, iPhones have had a squarish camera module, but this might change with the iPhone 16. The report revealed renders of the iPhone 16 showing a vertical cylindrical camera module housing two sensors, with the flash positioned outside the module.
