The iPhone 16 and 16 Pro aren’t due until September, but everyone is already interested, including us. If some details have already leaked, these fake iPhone images probably reveal some information about Apple’s future models.
We don’t know much about the iPhone 16 at the moment, but it’s a safe bet that leaks will multiply in the coming months, before their arrival in September. This time, dummy iPhone 16s have appeared, thanks to the well-informed Sonny Dickson, in a publication on. Enough to learn more about the designs envisaged by Apple.
The Action button would arrive on all iPhone 16s
This is the main change: last year, Apple replaced the ringer switch on the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max with an Action button. It allows you to program several actions, such as taking a photo, opening an application, etc. If the images of these dummy units are to be believed, all iPhone 16 models would benefit.

All models would also benefit from another new button, the “ Capture “. We still don’t know what it would really be used for, but everything suggests that it will be dedicated to the camera, and more precisely to video. It is possible that it is used to trigger the recording of a video, to change the focus or even to zoom. We also don’t know if it would be possible to reschedule it. As for the Pro models, they could see the return of the gold color, abandoned last year in favor of a “ natural titanium “.
Pro models a little larger than the others
In terms of the size of the different models, we expect the screen diagonals to increase slightly between the non-Pro models and the Pro models. Thus, the iPhone 16 Pro would have a 6.3-inch screen, compared to 6.1 inches for the base model. The iPhone 16 Pro Max would be entitled to a diagonal of 6.9 inches, compared to 6.7 inches for the iPhone 16 Plus.
We also note that the Pro models would still be entitled to three photo sensors, while their cheaper versions would still be limited to two. All that remains is to wait for Apple’s keynote in September to officially discover the iPhone 16. They would arrive with iOS 18, which would be a very important update, and perhaps with generative AI, why not Google Gemini.
