iPhone 16 256GB Black

Apple Intelligence.

All-opening possibilities. 

iPhone 16 is built for Apple Intelligence, the personal intelligence system that helps you write, express yourself and get things done effortlessly. With groundbreaking privacy protections, it gives you peace of mind that no one else can access your data — not even Apple.

Great powers come with great privacy.

Apple Intelligence is designed to protect your privacy at every step. It’s integrated into the core of iPhone through on‑device processing. So it’s aware of your personal information without collecting your personal information.

And with groundbreaking Private Cloud Compute, Apple Intelligence can draw on larger Apple‑designed server‑based models, running on Apple silicon, to handle more complex requests for you while protecting your privacy.

Take total Camera Control.

Touch. Zoom. Click. Quick.

Now you can take the perfect photo or video in record time. Camera Control gives you an easier way to quickly access camera tools. Simply slide your finger to adjust camera functions like exposure or depth of field, and toggle through each lens or use digital zoom to frame your shot — just how you like it.

New camera system.

Go to great lengths to get the perfect shot.

The versatile new iPhone 16 camera system captures beautiful photos — from up close or far away. The two‑in‑one 48MP Fusion camera lets you take stunning super‑high‑resolution images, or zoom in with the 2x optical‑quality Telephoto. The Ultra Wide camera shoots extreme close‑up macro photos or wider, more expansive pictures. Altogether, it’s like having four lenses in your pocket. And with spatial capture, you can even take photos and videos in 3D, which you can watch with Apple Vision Pro.

Ultra Wide camera.

Focus on the little things.
And the bigger picture.

The new Ultra Wide camera with autofocus takes incredibly sharp, detailed macro photos and videos. You can also frame more expansive scenes without taking a step back. And because it has a larger aperture and bigger pixels, it can capture up to 2.6x more light for higher image quality — even in low light.

A18 chip.

Hi, IQ.

Meet A18, custom‑built for Apple Intelligence — and so much more. It jumps two generations ahead of the A16 Bionic chip in iPhone 15. And it powers next-level camera features like Photographic Styles and Cameral Control. All with exceptional power efficiency to extend battery life.

Even longer battery life.

You’ll need to recharge 
before it will.

iPhone 16 has been designed to make room for a larger battery, which works together with A18 to deliver a big boost in battery life, even with so many new features. So you can game, binge and rock on — and on.

Snap on a new MagSafe charger for even faster wireless charging — up to 25W with a 30W power adapter or higher, enabling up to 50% charge in around 30 minutes.
