As we told you a few weeks ago, Today was the day Apple chose to introduce the iPhone 16 generationa new evolutionary leap for a phone that didn’t invent the concept of a smartphone, but reinvented it, leading to the biggest change the mobile phone market has seen in its entire history, and also one of the most remarkable changes in the market. recent history of technology and consumer electronics.

As always with Apple, So far, we haven’t had any official information about this new generation iPhonewhich doesn’t mean we don’t know anything about it. Even this year, leaks are the order of the day from the first moment, which is why we could already “know” a lot of what will come with the iPhone 16. So much so that yes. something For more than two weeks we have been able to offer you a complete summary of the main novelties of this generation.

Based on the information we have so far, We already expected that it would be a “minor” reconstructionwhich would certainly arrive with some interesting news, but which would not make a big difference compared to its predecessor. And while that was the case with the Pro models, the same can’t be said for the standard and Plus models, which came with a good set of new features that make them a good generation to jump on compared to their predecessors. .

But hey, let’s stop talking about what we expected and focus on what we found. This is what Apple told us about its new generation.

iPhone 16

We start the review of what they showed us today with the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus, which They are the devices that have experienced the greatest evolution of all those that were shown to us at the keynote this afternoon. So much so that in this case, before starting the review of the news, we can confirm that we are facing an important development that, as already indicated, can justify the leap from the iPhone 15, and undoubtedly it is. They have been doing it since previous generations.

The first thing to note about the new iPhone 16 and 16 Plus It has to do with physical controls, with buttons. On the one hand, we see the arrival of the action button in the standard models, which debuted exclusively in the previous generation Pro models and which is now extended to the whole family, and the camera control, which represents an exceptional improvement in the experience of using the camera functions of these devices.

As for the first of these buttons, which, as you probably already know, replaces the traditional switch that silenced the mobile phone since its inception, Mr.allows multiple functions to be assigned, which may also vary depending on the context. The vast majority of these are for now those of the operating system and its tools, but Apple has opened up its use to third parties to incorporate their own features into those already available in the system.

In development…
