How to read this comparison
- Manufacturer facts for the exact models shown. Not a quality rating or a test result.
- “Different” means the known values differ, not that one is better.
- Missing or conflicting evidence is marked and never counts as a difference. Source chips hold each fact’s sources and conditions.
Not verified for either phone, so not charted: Native zoom. Missing evidence is not a difference.

All battery claims depend on network configuration and many other factors; actual results will vary. Battery has limited recharge cycles and may eventually need to be replaced. Battery life and charge cycles vary by use and settings. See apple.com/uk/batteries and apple.com/uk/iphone/battery.html for more information. MagSafe wireless charging up to 25W with 30W adapter or higher. Testing conducted by Apple in August 2024 using pre‑production iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus units and software, USB‑C Charge Cable with Apple USB‑C Power Adapter (20W Model A2305), and Apple MagSafe Chargers (1‑metre Model A2580 and 2‑metre Model A3250) with Apple USB-C Power Adapter (30W Model A2164). Fast‑charge testing conducted with drained iPhone units. Times measured from the appearance of the Apple logo as the unit started up.
