According to MacRumors prototype rear camera system, the basic iPhone 16 includes vertically placed wide-angle and ultra-wide cameras. The most recent iPhones with a vertical camera design are the iPhone 12 and 12 mini, but the difference in the upcoming product is that it is placed in a pill-shaped camera case instead of a square shape like the models launched in 2020.
The camera cluster that Apple is testing on the basic iPhone 16 prototype has a similar design to the iPhone X first launched in 2017.
To get a clearer view of what the basic iPhone 16 design looks like, the Majin Bu account recently posted on X an illustration showing off the rear cameras of the iPhone 16 and 16 Plus that look quite similar to what MacRumors shared.
Additionally, the latest iPhone 16 prototypes are said to have a small Action button similar to the iPhone 15 Pro and a Capture button pressure-sensitive flush-mounted. Users can swipe the Capture button to change the zoom level on photos and videos. A light tap of the button will focus the camera while a firm press will take a photo or start recording video.
There’s still time to see how Apple will change the rear camera design on the base iPhone 16 models, but a vertical camera design seems necessary for this phone to offer spatial video recording capabilities.
As for the iPhone 16 Pro, Apple is said to have two options to solve the overheating problem like it happened with the iPhone 15 Pro. Specifically, the company will use a metal shell for the battery on the iPhone 16 Pro series or a layer of graphene material attached to the phone’s processor chip, which helps move heat away from the chip and dissipate heat more effectively than panels. graphite is now used.
