The new model is crafted from aerospace-grade aluminium and boasts an array of vibrant colours, including ultramarine, teal, and pink, alongside classic black and white options.

The technology will be instrumental in enhancing Siri’s capabilities, offering more accurate responses and on-screen guidance for various tasks.

The device also boasts an extended battery life, thanks to the efficient A18 chip and advanced power management features. iOS 18 introduces live video sharing with emergency services, expanding the iPhone 16’s utility in critical situations.
