Apple iPhone 16 vs Apple iPhone 18 Pro

The source names two physical cameras. Its enabled 12MP 2x Telephoto mode uses the Fusion main camera, rather than creating a third physical module.

The marketed diagonal, explicit OLED technology and pixel resolution are retained together; rounded-corner rectangle size is a separate measurement.

460 ppi; ProMotion adaptive refresh.

UWB is Apple's second-generation Ultra Wideband chip. These capabilities belong to UK A3287. Wi-Fi7/UWB availability and network/provider support remain region-dependent; no measured throughput is asserted.

Connector shape and explicit USB 2 data limit are retained. DisplayPort output is separately evidenced; no measured transfer speed or USB 3 capability is inferred.

Manufacturer playback and approximate charging tests are separate claims. Adapter wattage is not maximum handset input; compatible wireless equipment is required.

Apple does not publish battery capacity in mAh. Up to 31 h streamed video; up to 50% in around 15 minutes with a separately sold 60 W-capable USB-C adapter supporting AVS; MagSafe and Qi2 up to 25 W. Apple UK claims, not independent tests.

Megapixels, aperture and autofocus are read from TrueDepth, not copied from the rear main camera.

The model index explicitly names two physical cameras, Fusion Main and Ultra Wide. The 2× mode is main-sensor framing, so this complete inventory contains no dedicated telephoto lens.

Dedicated 100 mm equivalent telephoto.

Apple explicitly describes the main-sensor enabled 2× mode separately from the physical dual-camera system. It is not a dedicated 2× lens.

Manufacturer crop-mode claim; not a separate lens.

This is the separately labelled outdoor peak, not typical or HDR brightness and not an independent measurement.

Manufacturer claim, not an independent measurement.

The model description explicitly names two physical rear cameras: Ultra Wide and Fusion. The enabled2x crop is not another module.

Counts the three physical rear camera modules; 2× and 8× crop modes are not extra cameras.

Uses the advertised nominal diagonal, not actual viewable area or the standard-rectangle diagonal.

Nominal diagonal; actual viewable area is smaller.

Uses the separately labelled streamed-video duration, retaining its different workload.

Apple UK claim.

Apple lists device grams, not parcel mass or the weight of accessories. Size and weight can vary with configuration and manufacture.

Each labelled dimension was checked individually, then deliberately reordered to height × width × depth. Configuration/manufacturing variation remains possible.

Uses the labelled height in millimetres; neither the source width nor its inch value is substituted.

Uses the labelled depth as chassis thickness, without inventing camera-bump depth.

Uses the labelled chassis width. A larger value is not inherently preferable.

The UK specification identifies A3287, with physical nano-SIM and eSIM. This model identity does not establish retailer stock or network-provider support.

Dual SIM (nano-SIM and eSIM) with dual eSIM support; 5G (sub-6 GHz). Carrier services and eSIM support need confirming with your network.

The model index identifies the separate US A3081 and explicitly says there is no US SIM tray. The US SIM section excludes physical SIM cards; US facts are not substituted into UK data.

US figures are shown for reference only and are not used for the UK model.

The positive rear-system flag is scoped to the evidenced Fusion Main lens; the ultra-wide is not assumed to have OIS.

No source recorded for this side.

Continuous autofocus video is explicitly listed. The boolean records support, not focusing speed or every possible still-image mode.

No source recorded for this side.

Front auto image stabilisation is listed without an optical mechanism. It does not establish front optical stabilisation.

No source recorded for this side.

The source describes a lithium-ion battery and endurance claims without stating mAh. Capacity is not reverse-calculated from playback.

No source recorded for this side.

20W and30W describe adapter/test setups, not a published maximum handset input. The device-input field stays unknown.

No source recorded for this side.

No source recorded for this side.

The front camera is not described as having physical aperture control.

No source recorded for this side.

Digital video zoom; not optical lens reach or a claim about image quality.

The checked exact-model source omits a numeric refresh maximum. It remains unknown rather than being filled with an assumed 60Hz.

Adaptive ProMotion; refresh depends on content.

Neither storage capacity nor processor-core counts establish RAM capacity. No third-party estimate is substituted.

Not published by Apple.

Apple lists fixed internal storage options and no removable storage interface.

Not verified for this exact model.

No source recorded for this side.

The checked source lists iOS without a model-specific support end date or guaranteed future upgrade count. This is a disclosed gap, not a support-duration score.

Not verified for this exact model.

Not verified for this exact model.

No source recorded for this side.

The exact model description and controls list identify the physical Action button. It is not inferred from a neighbouring generation.

No source recorded for this side.

The Action-mode resolution and frame rate are retained together, not compared as ordinary4K recording.

No source recorded for this side.

Support is explicit. Language/region restrictions, iOS 27 English Siri AI beta and server-use limits remain; shared software eligibility is not a successor-only upgrade.

Siri AI starts in English, with regional restrictions and usage limits for some cloud features.

No source recorded for this side.

Manufacturer-described functions; sound quality has not been independently measured.

Uses the separately labelled audio duration; it is not video or mixed-use endurance.

No source recorded for this side.

Camera Control is expressly identified in the physical model description, button list and camera section. Its absence on a contender cannot be assumed from missing evidence.

No source recorded for this side.

The checked iPhone16 specification does not identify the cellular modem. The Ultra Wideband chip is a separate component, and no third-party modem estimate is substituted.

Explicitly listed for iPhone 18 Pro in the UK Mobile and Wireless section.

No source recorded for this side.

Manufacturer-named process technology; the process name is not a measured transistor size or an efficiency score.

No source recorded for this side.

Apple-announced editing feature.

The finish section identifies the materials for the selected Ultramarine finish. Material names do not prove comparative drop or scratch resistance.

No source recorded for this side.

Pixel width and height are transcribed from the labelled display resolution rather than calculated from diagonal size.

No source recorded for this side.

Apple explicitly lists DisplayPort as a USB-C capability. A missing output detail on a contender is not verified non-support.

No source recorded for this side.

Versus counts four workflow types Apple lists: RAW stills, professional video codecs, log capture and external production timing. It is not an Apple score or a count of every camera feature.

The checked rear recording list does not establish ProRes. Omission alone is not proof that all app or external workflows are impossible.

No source recorded for this side.

The current source separately lists Qi2 up to 25 W. It remains a distinct protocol claim; unsupported adapter/firmware details are not invented.

No source recorded for this side.

Apple typical-use claim; distinct from local or streamed video playback and not a cross-brand endurance test.

An omitted8K mode is not an explicit non-support statement. No negative capability is fabricated.

8K recording is not mentioned.

The heading does not specify the installed version. Storage and AI footnotes mentioning later versions do not change it into a launch-version claim.
