iPhone 16 Vs iPhone 17: Should You Buy Apple’s Upcoming Smartphone or Wait for Next Model?
iPhone 16 Vs iPhone 17: Apple is all set to launch the iPhone 16 series on September 9 and even before its release, the iPhone 17 has started generating buzz among tech enthusiasts. As for the iPhone 16, it will be the first device from the tech giant after the Apple Intelligence was announced. The iPhone 16 is expected to offer improved performance and features and appears to be a great option over its predecessors. However, a recent leak indicates that the iPhone 17 might be the device people might want.
Previous leaks indicate that this will be the first Apple smartphone to feature a revamped front camera, with the three main lenses of the Pro models getting 48MP and there will be an all-new iPhone 17 Slim. The icing on the cake will be the AI.
“This year’s iPhone 16 has only 8GB of memory, mainly AI on the cloud side. Next year’s iPhone 17 has 12GB of memory and more edge AI applications,” Weibo leaker Phone Chip Expert said.
iPhone 16 Vs iPhone 17: Artificial Intelligence
With Apple Intelligence in the works, it appears that the iPhone 17 will be the main smartphone for artificial intelligence. The iPhone 16 is likely to be introduced without artificial intelligence. The reason is that the company is currently testing the features that are only available in beta for developers running iOS 18.1.
Additionally, features like image generation, an all-new context-understanding Siri and Genmoji are still missing.
The tech giant has already confirmed that some Apple Intelligence features will only be available next year, hinting at a bigger expansion in the platform. Although it’s not clear when Apple will expand it to more regions and languages, it looks like the features will take at least a year to come into existence.
With that, the iPhone 17 will provide customers with the perfect opportunity, as it will have more mature AI, more RAM for on-device processing, and all the perks mentioned above.
That said, the iPhone 17 can be a better choice as it could offer more mature AI, more RAM for on-device processing, and more.
An All-New iPhone 17 Slim
While the iPhone 16 Plus is expected to be launched on September 9, Apple seems to have a different approach for the iPhone 17. Rumours suggest a premium version of the non-Pro iPhone 17. The all-new iPhone 17 Slim is expected to have the A19 chip, 8GB of RAM and two main cameras.
Cameras: What’s Different?
According to rumours, the iPhone 16 Pro will come with a 48MP ultra-wide camera and the iPhone 17 Pro lineup will get a 48MP camera for all the primary shooters. Besides an updated tetra prism zoom lens, which will be exclusive to the Pro Max, the iPhone 17 Pro will also feature 48MP resolution for the telephoto camera.
iPhone 16 Vs iPhone 17: A18 Vs A19 Chipset
While the iPhone 16 models are expected to use a new A18 chip, the iPhone 17 models may get A19. According to reports, the company is working on two new chips - the A19 and A19 Pro. The latter is likely to offer better efficiency, thanks to a new TSMC technology.
