Apple has announced the release of 4 iPhone 2024 models: iPhone 16, 16 Plus, 16 Pro, and 16 Pro Max, which are expected to offer varying hardware, software, and features. In reality, there may be up to 8 different models due to the influence of regulations set by the European Union (EU).

The upcoming iOS 18 update in the EU is projected to allow users to customize the software in unprecedented ways. This move complies with the EU’s Digital Markets Act (DMA) and is expected to give users more control over Apple’s system and default apps compared to users in other regions.

As a result, iPhone 16 series users in the EU could have the option to replace the default apps with third-party alternatives, and may even be able to replace system features such as the dialer, navigation, and password manager. This could lead to devices with Chrome instead of Safari and alternative app stores replacing the App Store, resulting in iPhones that differ significantly from those available elsewhere.

Furthermore, the EU’s AI law initiative places similar requirements on AI models, aiming for the highest transparency and imposing restrictions on AI models designed for general use. This means that certain AI features, such as those offered by Apple Intelligence, may not be available on devices sold in the EU due to regulatory compliance.

In summary, while the iPhone 16, 16 Plus, 16 Pro, and 16 Pro Max will be available worldwide, the versions sold in the EU are expected to have unique looks, feels, and features due to EU regulations and compliance laws.
