AI-Powered iPhone 16
The iPhone 16, starting at $799, boasts groundbreaking AI capabilities that enable users to generate text and images through simple, natural-language prompts. This next-gen AI integration is designed to make the phone a hub of creativity and productivity. One of the standout features is the dedicated camera control button, which allows users to snap photos and access “visual intelligence” by identifying landmarks, dog breeds, restaurant details, and more.
Siri has also received an upgrade, pulling information from user text messages to make personalized recommendations and facilitate smoother communication.
The iPhone 16 comes in new colors—white, black, teal, ultramarine, and pink—and is available in two sizes: 6.1 inches for the standard model and 6.7 inches for the iPhone 16 Plus. Both models are equipped with a faster processor, offering 40% more GPU power and a stronger ceramic-glass screen for enhanced durability.
iPhone 16 Pro
Apple also introduced the iPhone 16 Pro, starting at $999, with more advanced AI features and a larger display. The Pro models come with screens that are 0.2 inches bigger than their predecessors, measuring 6.3 inches and 6.9 inches, respectively, for the Pro and Pro Max. The Pro line features a 4K video recording option with slow-motion capabilities, spatial audio enhancements, and extended battery life.
AirPods 4 and Apple Watch 10
In addition to the iPhone, Apple announced the AirPods 4, touted as the “most comfortable” AirPods yet. The new design offers a better fit, active noise cancellation, and a transparency mode, starting at $129. A more advanced version with noise cancellation is priced at $179.

With these new innovations, Apple aims to inspire a new sales cycle and reaffirm its dominance in the tech market.
