There is another new leak for the iPhone 16 Pro: Like the portal 91mobiles Based on “exclusive CAD renderings”, the design of the Apple smartphone, which is expected to arrive in autumn 2024, should be determined and bring with it a conceptual change. As a result, the pure appearance will remain identical to the current iPhone 15 Pro – with the exception of one noticeable innovation, which is an additional button.
Similar to the “Action Button” on the iPhone 15 Pro, the button known as the “Capture Button” is intended to take on camera-specific functions. In addition to being able to take photos and videos, according to the leak, it should also make it possible to adjust focus and zoom. According to the leaks, the existing “action button” could also be slightly larger.

The dimensions of the iPhone 16 Pro are given by 91mobiles as 149.6 x 71.4 x 8.4 mm. This would make the device slightly larger than its predecessor (146.6 x 70.6 x 8.25 mm). The renderings suggest that the display will also increase slightly in size and is expected to measure 6.3 inches diagonally. This information coincides with leaks that the portal Macrumors had already spread in September 2023.
However, the arrangement of the triple camera on the back should not change. This means that Apple remains true to the design that was first introduced with the iPhone 11 Pro in 2019. The leaks that emerged a few weeks ago, which suggested a triangle-shaped camera design, do not appear to be true. In addition to the three camera lenses, there will also still be a LiDAR scanner, a microphone and a flash on the back.
In contrast to the iPhone 15 Pro, the iPhone 16 Pro will have a 5x telephoto lens with periscope technology, according to 91mobiles. This improvement is rumored to be made possible by a little more space inside the device. Another camera upgrade could be a 48-megapixel ultra-wide-angle lens, exclusive to the Pro models. New color options for the case and a larger battery with 3,355 mAh capacity are also expected.
