Unveiled at Apple’s “Glowtime” keynote on September 9, 2024, the iPhone 16 Plus opened for pre-order on September 13 and arrived in customers’ hands beginning September 20, 2024. At its heart is a 6.7-inch Super Retina XDR OLED display with a native resolution of 2796 × 1290 pixels (460 ppi), framed by uniform slim bezels and protected by Ceramic Shield glass. Measuring 160.9 × 77.8 × 7.8 mm (6.33 × 3.06 × 0.31 in) and weighing 199 g (7.03 oz), the Plus model delivers a commanding but still pocketable footprint, offering users a larger view with minimal increase in thickness or weight.

Beneath its aerospace-grade aluminum frame and textured glass back lies a refined internal architecture: an A18 Bionic chip paired with 8 GB of LPDDR5X RAM, supported by a re-engineered thermal system that accommodates a higher-capacity battery without raising the chassis’ slim 7.8 mm profile. On the exterior, Apple introduces two new tactile controls across the iPhone 16 lineup: a programmable Action Button (supplanting the old mute switch) and a dedicated Camera Control Button positioned just below the power key for instant photo and video capture (The Verge). The rear cameras—now vertically aligned on all models—comprise a 48 MP main sensor and a 12 MP ultra-wide module, both optimized for low-light shooting and spatial video capture for Vision Pro. MagSafe and Qi2 wireless charging remain standard, while the switch to USB-C completes the move toward a universal charging standard. Available in five bold finishes—Black, White, Pink, Teal, and Ultramarine—the iPhone 16 Plus combines flagship performance with a larger, more immersive display and refined ergonomic touches.
