About the iPhone 16 Series

Camera Control, Apple Intelligence, and bigger displays on the Pro.
Released in September 2024, the iPhone 16 series introduced two new physical hardware features and marked the entry point for Apple Intelligence, Apple’s generative AI platform. The two hardware firsts were the Camera Control button on all four models (a touch-sensitive, pressure-aware button on the right edge for launching the camera, zooming, and triggering shutter) and, on the Pro models, slightly larger displays: 6.3 inches on the 16 Pro (up from 6.1) and 6.9 inches on the 16 Pro Max (up from 6.7).

The standard iPhone 16 and 16 Plus gained the Action Button (previously Pro-only) and moved to the A18 chip, while the Pro models stepped up to the A18 Pro with a bigger Neural Engine for on-device Apple Intelligence. USB-C continued across the whole range, with USB 3.0 speeds on the Pro and USB 2.0 on the standard models. iPhone Repair UK stocks parts for all four iPhone 16 models in-house on Commercial Street, with same-day fitting on screens, batteries, charging ports, back glass, and camera modules.

iPhone 16

Released: September 2024 · Starting storage: 128GB · UK launch price: £799
The 6.1-inch iPhone 16 with Action Button, Camera Control, and the A18 chip.
The standard iPhone 16 kept the 6.1-inch Super Retina XDR OLED but added two new buttons borrowed from the Pro tier: the Action Button (replacing the mute switch, programmable to launch system shortcuts) and the Camera Control button on the lower right edge. The display runs at 2556 by 1179 pixels, with Dynamic Island and 2000 nits HDR peak.

Internally the chip is the A18 (Apple’s second 3nm design), paired with 8GB of RAM, which is the minimum RAM requirement for Apple Intelligence. The rear camera system reverted to a vertically-stacked dual lens arrangement (reminiscent of the iPhone 7 Plus), pairing a 48-megapixel main (with sensor-shift OIS, enabling 2x optical quality zoom via sensor crop) with a 12-megapixel ultra-wide.

USB-C port with USB 2.0 speeds, MagSafe, IP68 to 6 metres for 30 minutes, Face ID via Dynamic Island, Ceramic Shield front. For repair, the iPhone 16’s Camera Control button is a new serviceable component: it is a solid-state capacitive and pressure-sensing control that can fail. iPhone Repair UK diagnoses the Camera Control for free and quotes replacement where needed.

iPhone 16 Plus

Released: September 2024 · Starting storage: 128GB · UK launch price: £899
The 6.7-inch iPhone 16 with the biggest battery in the non-Pro lineup.
The iPhone 16 Plus matches the standard 16’s internals (A18, 8GB RAM, dual rear camera, Action Button, Camera Control, MagSafe, USB-C 2.0) at the 6.7-inch Super Retina XDR OLED size. The display runs at 2796 by 1290 pixels with Dynamic Island.

The larger chassis supports a bigger battery, which hits 27 hours of video playback (the longest in the non-Pro lineup). Chassis is aerospace-grade aluminium flat-edge, Ceramic Shield front, Face ID via Dynamic Island, IP68 to 6 metres.

For repair, the 16 Plus’s larger display pushes iPhone Repair UK’s screen from-price to £105 against £95 for the standard 16. Battery, charging port, back glass, and camera all match the standard 16’s from-prices. The Camera Control button is at the same position and uses the same service process as the standard 16.

iPhone 16 Pro

Released: September 2024 · Starting storage: 128GB · UK launch price: £999
The Pro with a bigger 6.3-inch display, A18 Pro chip, and the full triple-camera system.
The iPhone 16 Pro grew the Pro display size for the first time since the 11 Pro, from 6.1 inches on the 15 Pro to 6.3 inches on the 16 Pro. The ProMotion Super Retina XDR OLED runs at 2622 by 1206 pixels with Always-On and Dynamic Island, 1000 nits standard brightness and 2000 nits HDR peak.

The rear camera system is a triple-lens setup: 48-megapixel main with sensor-shift OIS, 48-megapixel ultra-wide (new for 16 Pro, up from 12 megapixels on previous Pros), and 12-megapixel 5x tetraprism telephoto (the tetraprism optics was Pro Max exclusive on the 15 generation and arrived on the 16 Pro too). LiDAR Scanner continues. 4K ProRes video with external storage recording.

The A18 Pro chip (Apple’s second-generation 3nm Pro silicon) runs on 8GB of RAM. USB-C with USB 3.0 speeds for fast data transfer. Titanium chassis continues from the 15 Pro, slightly refined. For repair, the 16 Pro’s larger OLED pushes screen from-price to £130, with battery from £90 reflecting the bigger cell and improved cooling. Camera Control, Action Button, and Face ID all preserved on screen jobs.

iPhone 16 Pro Max

Released: September 2024 · Starting storage: 256GB · UK launch price: £1,199
The 6.9-inch flagship, the biggest iPhone display ever.
The iPhone 16 Pro Max grew to a 6.9-inch display, the biggest in iPhone history to that point. The ProMotion Super Retina XDR OLED runs at 2868 by 1320 pixels with Always-On and Dynamic Island, matching the Pro’s brightness specs. Battery life hits 33 hours of video playback, another iPhone record.

Internally the 16 Pro Max matches the 16 Pro: A18 Pro, 8GB RAM, triple camera with 48+48+12 tetraprism, LiDAR, titanium chassis, USB-C 3.0, Camera Control, Action Button, MagSafe, IP68. Storage starts at 256GB (double the Pro’s 128GB) and runs to 1TB.

For repair, the 16 Pro Max is the most expensive model in the series. iPhone Repair UK’s from-prices sit at £145 for the 6.9-inch ProMotion OLED, £90 for battery, £85 for charging port and camera (reflecting the tetraprism), and £95 for back glass. All services remain same-day where possible, with tetraprism modules held in stock.

Most Common iPhone 16 Series Faults We See

Every generation has its own fault pattern. These are the issues walking through the iPhone Repair UK Newport workshop door most often for the iPhone 16 Series.

Camera Control button unresponsive

The new Camera Control button on the right edge is a solid-state capacitive sensor with pressure detection. Water ingress, drops, or firmware glitches can leave it unresponsive. iPhone Repair UK diagnoses for free and replaces the module where needed.

Dynamic Island touch not working after a drop

A drop that cracks the top of the display without affecting the main glass can kill Dynamic Island touch. The fix is a new display with original TrueDepth sensor array transferred.

USB-C port intermittent on 16 Pro / Pro Max

The USB 3.0 USB-C port on the Pro models is slightly more vulnerable to wear than the USB 2.0 port on the standard 16 and 16 Plus. Deep clean usually sorts it; replacement port otherwise.

Battery drain faster than expected on 16 Pro

If 16 Pro battery life has become visibly worse within 12 months, the fault is usually a defective battery cell. Within Apple's warranty window, Apple will replace. Outside warranty, iPhone Repair UK fits a fresh cell from £90.

Rear camera lens cracked (tetraprism on Pro and Pro Max)

The tetraprism telephoto on the 16 Pro and Pro Max uses folded optics with a stacked lens arrangement that can crack internally even if the external glass looks intact. Full module replacement.
