The new iPhone generation is most likely to be released in September. It is expected that Apple will again introduce four models at the same time, which will be called iPhone 16, iPhone 16 Plus, iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max.
An increasingly clear picture is emerging, for example about the design of the upcoming Apple smartphones. But there are also some exciting technical highlights.
The usually well-informed analyst Jeff Pu reports in a note to investors about more powerful and larger processors. Nevertheless, the A18 Pro chip should have six GPU cores like the A17 SoC.
However, the so-called Neural Engine in the iPhone 16 Pro will have significantly more cores, which is fueling speculation. It is conceivable that Apple will reserve some AI functions exclusively for the Pro models.
According to rumors, Apple will place increased emphasis on AI functions around Siri, Spotlight search, Apple Music and Health in the upcoming iPhone operating system iOS 18. A first foretaste of this is expected at the upcoming WWDC developer conference in June.
