According to Apple, this setup offers the equivalent of four lenses through a 2x crop mode and macro capabilities. Additionally, the front camera is a 12MP shooter.
Image Playground
This year, Apple introduces advanced features in the iPhone 16 series with its new Apple Intelligence.
Users can now create playful images effortlessly. Emojis have been upgraded with the ability to generate unique Genmojis by simply typing a description or selecting a photo of a friend or family member.
Video Recording
The Pro models come with four new studio-quality microphones that capture true-to-life sound. Videos can now be recorded in Spatial Audio, providing an immersive listening experience with AirPods, Apple Vision Pro, or a surround sound system.
The iPhone 16 Pro lineup also offers innovative video sound editing with Audio Mix.
Users can adjust the audio after recording to enhance voices, simulate a professional studio environment, or position vocal tracks and background sounds separately.
Additionally, wind noise reduction and advanced machine learning algorithms improve audio quality by minimising unwanted noise.
