Ikea adds Matter support to Dirigera hub, for real this time
Two years after the Dirigera hub was announced with the promise of being Matter-compatible, Ikea is finally releasing non-beta firmware to facilitate this.Ikea's Dirigera smart home hubBack in 2022, Ikea announced the Dirigera home hub that would work with its range of smart home devices. It was said to have Matter support, which would allow it to connect to smart devices from just about any manufacturer, including Apple and its HomeKit range.But at the same time, an Ikea spokesperson said that the company was working "toward Matter certification step-by-step, and the first update is expected in the next couple of months." So, no, it didn't have Matter support. Continue Reading on AppleInsider | Discuss on our Forums

Craig Federighi talks about the challenges behind keeping Apple Intelligence private
Apple had to achieve what Craig Federighi says were breakthroughs so that Apple Intelligence could use large language models in the cloud while still protecting users' privacy. Here's what Apple did.Craig FederighiDuring the "It's Glowtime" event, Apple talked about Private Cloud Compute as the way that user privacy is protected. Apple aims for as much of Apple Intelligence should work entirely on device, but there are also user requests that will require sending data to cloud services like ChatGPT."We set out from the beginning with a goal of how can we extend the kinds of privacy guarantees that we've established with processing on-device with iPhone to the cloud—that was the mission statement," Apple's senior vice president of software engineering, Craig Federighi, said in an interview with Wired. "It took breakthroughs on every level to pull this together, but what we've done is achieve our goal." Continue Reading on AppleInsider | Discuss on our Forums

This $30 built-for-MagSafe power bank will charge your iPhone in a blink
Macworld The iPhone 16 may have bigger batteries than ever, but if you’re a heavy user it can never be enough. This is why getting an Anker Magnetic 10,000mAh power bank for $30 (25 percent off) at Amazon makes perfect sense. The power bank is slim and tiny, fitting perfectly on the back of your iPhone, even the new models. The massive 10,000mAH capacity will give you a full charge for your phone and still have plenty of power left to top it off a second time. The power bank offers 7.5W wireless and magnetic charging, which means you’ll top off your phone in no time. This device is super compact, measuring just 0.72 inches in thickness, making it super easy to carry in those annoying knuckle-deep pockets. One cool thing about the Anker Magnetic power bank is that you can charge your iPhone with it and plug it in at the same time, so you recharge the battery at the same time. In this way, you cut down on the recharge time before using it again, and you use a single cord. Win-Win. So go ahead and snatch the Anker Magnetic Power Bank for $30 at Amazon before the deal expires. (Note This price is exclusive for Prime members, which means you’ll need a subscription to the service. If you’re not on Amazon Prime just yet, you can subscribe at any time and try it out for free for 30 days.) Buy it now at Amazon

PSA: Apple trade-in will value your iPhone at $0 if it has any damage

Trade and switch: Apple wants to recycle my iPhone 15 Pro Max for $0
Macworld Like most people who write about Apple for a living, I’m buying a new iPhone 16 this year. As I do every year, I went through Apple’s “Get Ready” system in the Apple Store app to start the trade-in process and make pre-ordering that much easier. However, it didn’t quite go the way I expected. Apple offers up to $650 for trade-ins, and I assumed my phone, the 256GB version of the iPhone 15 Pro Max, would get at or near that. But when I began to answer Apple’s overly simplistic questions about the condition of my phone, I quickly discovered it wouldn’t. The problem? The back glass of my iPhone is cracked. I dropped it some months ago (without a case) and since the front glass is completely unaffected, held off on fixing it despite having AppleCare+. I assumed Apple would merely deduct the $29 cost of the repair when going through the trade-in process. Apparently that’s not how it works. In fact, Apple wouldn’t take my phone at all when I checked the “No” box under “Is the body of your iPhone in good shape?” Apple informed me that my trade-in value would be $0. They did, however, offer to recycle it for me for free. (I checked, by the way. If you answer “No” to either question—whether the buttons work or the body is in good shape—Apple will deny any trade-in discount.) So I quickly made an appointment at my local Apple Store to fix it so I can trade it in for the full $650. And I recommend you do the same: check out your iPhone 15’s condition before you go to trade it in. If there are any cracks on either the screen or the back, go get it fixed before trading it in—especially if you have AppleCare+. The cost to fix the front or back glass is only $29 with the coverage and $199 without, which is still better than handing it over to Apple for free.

iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Pro: Where to get the best deals
Macworld It’s been a long time since you could only buy an iPhone directly from Apple or from AT&T. Today, they are offered by all major carriers and big retailers, many of which try to entice you with special deals. Of course, you can still buy from Apple directly, either in-store or online, but the lowest prices can generally be found elsewhere.

These deals can be complicated, so be sure to read the fine print. In the U.S., Apple partners with carriers to offer discounts on the 2022 iPhones.

Forget the Pro, the iPhone 16 has everything you need
Macworld In recent years, Apple has actively distinguished between its regular and Pro iPhone models. Beyond the superior camera system with a telephoto lens, Apple has routinely introduced exciting perks as Pro iPhone exclusives—the Dynamic Island, 48MP main camera, Action button, even Apple Intelligence—all of which remained exclusive to the Pro variants for a year. In a way, this both gives the Pro models exclusivity and makes its non-Pro flagships feel like mid-range phones due to their more limited feature set. Things are different this time around, however. With the iPhone 16 series, the regular models haven’t only adopted some previous Pro perks. Instead, they also introduced significant changes that could’ve easily been exclusive to the Pro line. So, for the first time in ages, most customers won’t feel like they’re missing out on much if they opt for the regular iPhone 16. Camera Control is the new cool The most radical change in the 2024 iPhone is the all-new Camera Control button. This addition isn’t a mere shortcut to the Camera app. Thanks to its touch- and pressure-sensitivity, you can rely on it to zoom, take photos or videos, adjust the exposure, switch between different Photographic Styles, and much more. The button also offers a dedicated API, allowing third-party developers to integrate its functionality into their camera apps. The Camera Control button could easily be a Pro feature—but it’s not. The Camera Control button could easily be a Pro feature—but it’s not.Apple The Camera Control button could easily be a Pro feature—but it’s not.Apple Apple Apple could’ve realistically gotten away with making the Camera Control button a Pro exclusive this year. The button is advanced enough to fall within the Pro category. By doing so, the iPhone maker could entice more undecided customers to buy the higher-end variants to utilize the shiny new button. It didn’t, though. All iPhone 16 models offer Camera Control, which, given the company’s recent history of making new features exclusive to the Pro models, I find a bit surprising. The regular iPhone 16’s camera upgrades don’t strictly revolve around the new button. Apple has also added support for Macro mode, allowing non-Pro users to shoot photos and videos of very close subjects, as well as unlocking spatial photo and video shooting support on the regular models by rearranging the rear lenses. Apple iPhone 16 Price When Reviewed: $799 Best Prices Today: $799 at Apple Other advanced camera features include the latest-generation Photographic Styles, which enable iPhone 16 users to easily adjust the colors and tones of their photos. They additionally get access to the new audio mixing feature that alters recorded videos’ sounds. That’s one Pro camera system if you ask me, and it’s all offered by the iPhone 16 and 16 Plus. Powered by the same chip (kinda) Apple recently started providing more advanced processors on its Pro iPhones beginning with the A16 in 2023 and continuing with the A17 Pro last year. While that’s still the case this year, the gap is now smaller. Instead of equipping non-Pro iPhone 16 models with year-old chipsets as it has done the past two generations, Apple released a slightly more restricted version of its latest A18 Pro chip. So, the A18-powered iPhone 16 and 16 Plus get the same 8GB of RAM, 6-core CPU, and 16-core Neural Engine. Perhaps the only notable difference between the A18 and A18 Pro is the standard models getting 5 GPU cores while the Pros get 6. The A18 and A18 Pro chips are basically the same except for one GPU core. The A18 and A18 Pro chips are basically the same except for one GPU core.Apple The A18 and A18 Pro chips are basically the same except for one GPU core.Apple Apple As a result, both the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Pro models should perform similarly when executing everyday tasks. The two also offer the full Apple Intelligence suite, including the new Visual Intelligence feature triggered via the Camera Control button. On the graphics side, you’ll get all of the features exclusive to the A17 Pro last year, including hardware-accelerated ray tracing. With mostly identical software feature sets and processors, there’s little reason to think the Pro iPhones will perform any better than their standard counterparts this year. As vibrant as a (non-plastic) iPhone gets Beyond the technical specifications and capabilities, there are some perks for choosing the regular iPhone 16 over the Pro one. In 2023, the iPhone 15’s colors were objectively washed out, and they missed out on the liveliness non-Pro iPhones generally offer. Apple has addressed this with the iPhone 16. This year, non-Pro users can pick between a variety of bright colors: ultramarine, teal, and pink, as well as the usual white and black. Compared to the iPhone 16 Pro’s dull, muted color options, you get a device with a prominent personality. Even the BACK is nicer this year, with a smaller iPhone X-style array to house the two camera. In short, the non-Pro iPhone 16 actually looks better than the Pro models this year. The iPhone 16 has a distinctive camera array and color scheme. The iPhone 16 has a distinctive camera array and color scheme.Apple The iPhone 16 has a distinctive camera array and color scheme.Apple Apple Negligible drawbacks, for some It goes without saying that the iPhone 16 Pro and 16 Pro Max continue to uniquely support more advanced features. For example, the always-on display feature first introduced with the iPhone 14 Pro remains missing on the regular iPhone 16 variants. (Though, those using an Apple Watch may not care about it as much, as the time, notifications, and other relevant information live on their wrist.) Similarly, the ProMotion technology is still exclusive to the highest-end models. While some users can tell the difference between 120Hz and 60Hz refresh rates, many others either can’t or simply aren’t concerned about it. Lastly, there’s the most protruding perk: the Pro camera system. iPhone 16 users miss out on the telephoto lens that unlocks a longer 5X optical zoom range, 120FPS 4K video recording, nighttime portraits, shooting in RAW, LOG video recording, etc. While all of these are nice-to-have features, most casual users will likely never miss them—apart from maybe the telephoto lens. As demonstrated earlier, the regular iPhone 16’s cameras are highly capable and will perform exceptionally well for immortalizing daily life moments. Most exclusive Pro iPhone camera bonuses are designed for serious content creators and professionals rather than Instagram Stories. The iPhone 16 Pro has a better camera system with a telephoto lens, but few iPhone 16 users will notice.

The standard iPhone 16 models didn’t just catch up with some of last year’s iPhone 15 Pro features, such as adding the Action button and the A17 Pro chip’s graphics features, it gained several of the newest 2024 features, including the Camera Control button and, of course, Apple Intelligence.

Their displays even share the same pixel density and maximum brightness as the 16 Pro models, though they’re ever-so-slightly smaller (6.3 and 6.9 inches versus 6.1 and 6.7 inches). For the first time in years, I can wholeheartedly recommend the iPhone 16 and 16 Plus to friends and family without needing to break down a long list of noteworthy limitations. Picking the right iPhone for you has become simpler than ever. And, for most people, it’s likely the cheaper one—which has never felt so premium.

How to fix ‘The disk you attached was not readable by this computer’
Macworld Some Mac users report that their Mac or MacBook cannot read the inserted disk with the error code: “The disk you attached was not readable by this computer.” This issue often occurs on Macs and indicates disk errors. You can try to fix this problem by restarting the Mac. If the disk is still not readable after a fresh reboot, keep reading, and we’ll guide you through four possible solutions. Before troubleshooting, back up your disk to avoid unnecessary data loss. Try EaseUS Data Recovery Wizard for Mac; this all-in-one tool will help you recover data from hard disks and back up storage devices immediately. What causes ‘The disk you attached was not readable by this computer’ on Mac This error message usually appears when your computer cannot access an external hard drive, SD card, or USB drive. Here are some typical reasons for this error: Unsupported file system. If you have formatted the external hard disk to be only readable on Windows, your Mac may not be able to access it. Corrupted file system. A Mac cannot read your disk, which may be because the storage device’s file system is corrupted. Viruses affect. If your disk was attached by computer viruses and malware, that may lead to the disk not being recognized. Corrupted disk. Bad errors or other physical damages can cause disks to become unreadable on computers. Uninitialized disk. MacOS system bugs. Outdated OS or recent bugs can cause this error. Broken cables or ports. If the USB-C or Thunderbolt cables are broken, your Mac may be unable to access the disk successfully. No matter what situation causes the attached disk to not be read on a Mac, you should back up the disk first and prepare reliable hard drive recovery software, like the EaseUS data recovery tool, if you need to format the drive on a Mac. Fix 1. Check physical connections to troubleshoot your not readable disk The first and easiest way to troubleshoot disk unreadable on Mac is by checking the physical connections. When you encounter “The disk you attached was not readable by this computer”, try the following methods first: Reconnect the disk to a Mac or MacBook after cleaning the connectors if they appear dirty. Connect the faulty drive to a different Mac or Windows PC to check if it is recognized. Connect the unreadable disk to a different USB port on your Mac.

In the U.S., Apple is once again partnering with carriers to offer discounts on the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus. You get a $30 discount if you buy a phone activated on AT&T, Verizon, or T-Mobile. That’s why Apple lists the price of the iPhone 16 as $799 and the iPhone 16 Plus as $899—that’s the price with the carrier-activated discount applied.

Best iPhone SE deals
Macworld If you’re looking for an iPhone but don’t want to spend a fortune, the third-gen iPhone SE, Apple’s cheapest current handset, is the phone for you. It features a powerful processor (the A15, which also appeared in the flagship iPhone 13 Pro from 2021) at an affordable price, starting at $429 in the U.S. or £429 in the U.K. For a phone that’s even cheaper, however, you may want to consider the second-gen iPhone SE from 2020. Apple no longer sells this device itself, but other vendors may still sell you one for a bargain price. In this article we round up the best deals and discounts currently available on each iPhone SE model, as well as cheap bundle offers worth considering. We cover both SIM-free and contract deals, identifying which retailers which have the handsets in stock, and which offer the best price. If you want to get yourself an iPhone SE, read on for the best deals. How much does the iPhone SE cost? Apple’s most affordable iPhone starts at $429/£429. (And you can get it for less if you trade in an older qualifying phone.) The 2022 model is currently available in three configurations: iPhone SE (2022, 64GB): $429 / £429 / AUD$719 iPhone SE (2022, 128GB): $479 / £479 / AUD$799 iPhone SE (2022, 256GB): $579 / £579/ AUD$969 That’s a slight price increase on the previous model. The 2020 iPhone SE is no longer available from Apple itself, but had the following MSRPs at launch: iPhone SE (2020, 64GB): $399 / £399 / AUD$679 iPhone SE (2020, 128GB): $449 / £439 / AUD$759 (If you’re buying the iPhone SE we recommend that you avoid the lowest-capacity model. We explain in a separate article: Why you shouldn’t buy the 64GB iPhone SE.) Where to buy iPhone SE (2022) SIM-free Apple sells the iPhone SE starting at $429/£429. You can buy from Apple right now. (That’s the U.S. store; depending on where you are, the U.K. store or the Australia store may be more suitable.) It’s also available from other retailers, who may offer discounts on Apple’s price. But this phone is relatively cheap (at least by Apple’s standards), so you’re unlikely to see any startling savings just yet. In the U.S., in fact, all the major retailers are sticking at Apple’s price. Best U.K. deals: Amazon, iPhone SE (64GB): £379 (£50 off, RRP £429) Amazon, iPhone SE (128GB): £429 (£50 off, RRP £429) You can check the best and latest offers in our automatic pricing tables, below. iPhone SE (64GB), MSRP $429/£429 New Refurbished Retailer Price $429 View Deal $429 View Deal $429 View Deal $449 View Deal $449 View Deal Price comparison from over 24,000 stores worldwide View more prices Product Price iPhone SE (2022) 64GB – Midnight – Unlocked $173.45 View Deal Price comparison from Backmarket iPhone SE (128GB), MSRP $479/£479 Retailer Price $479 View Deal $479 View Deal $479 View Deal $499 View Deal Price comparison from over 24,000 stores worldwide Product Price Price comparison from Backmarket Numerous retailers are stocking the iPhone SE. Just make sure you get the third-gen or 2022 version of the iPhone SE: many will continue to stock the second-gen model from 2020, which features the older A13 processor and doesn’t support 5G. U.S. readers should check the following stores: Amazon Best Buy Target Walmart U.K. readers, meanwhile, should check the retailers below. Affordable Mobiles Amazon Argos Carphone Warehouse Currys E2Save Giff Gaff John Lewis KRCS Mobiles.co.uk Mobile Phones Direct Very Where to buy iPhone SE (2022) on contract Try the following stores and carriers for the best iPhone SE contract deals. As mentioned above, make sure you’re getting the 2022 model with the A15 processor and 5G. It’s also bearing in mind that you’ll want the contract to include 5G support too: you need both hardware and contract to support the tech, and this may cost extra. If in doubt, ask a member of the sales support staff. AT&T T-Mobile Verizon U.K. readers can browse the best contract deals using the table below: If you’d like to research further, try the following U.K. carriers: Affordable Mobiles BT Mobile Carphone Warehouse EE E2Save iD Mobile Fonehouse Giff Gaff O2 Sky Mobile Tesco Mobile Three Virgin Mobile Vodafone Mobiles.co.uk Mobile Phones Direct iPhone SE (2020) deals The iPhone SE model from 2020 is no longer sold by Apple itself, but there are good deals available from other vendors. Where to buy the iPhone SE (2020) SIM-free You’ll see the lowest prices from third-party retailers in the automatic pricing table below. You can also buy the iPhone SE SIM-free from a number of other retailers. Try these U.S. stores: Amazon Best Buy Target Walmart U.K. readers should try the following: Affordable Mobiles Amazon Argos Carphone Warehouse Currys E2Save John Lewis KRCS Mobiles.co.uk Mobile Phones Direct Very Where to buy the iPhone SE (2020) on contract You can pick up the iPhone SE from a number of different networks in the U.S. and U.K.: AT&T T-Mobile Verizon U.K. contract providers: Affordable Mobiles BT Mobile Carphone Warehouse EE E2Save iD Mobile Fonehouse O2 Sky Mobile Tesco Mobile Three Virgin Mobile Vodafone Mobiles.co.uk Mobile Phones Direct We’ve also compared the original iPhone SE to the iPhone SE 2 if you want to know what kind of upgrades and differences to expect. Trade-in discounts Don’t forget you can save when you trade in your old qualifying phone with Apple or other retailers participating in a trade-in programme. Apple offers up to hundreds of dollars off the iPhone SE when you trade in your old iPhone (but if your phone is older, you’ll likely get much less). You’ll have to select the trade-in option during purchase and answer a few questions about your existing phone model, storage capacity and condition. You’ll need to provide your IMEI number as well. Read about Apple’s Trade In scheme in the U.S. and U.K. In the U.K. you could get even more money off if you trade-in via Currys PC World, which has offered up to £240 off previous iPhone SE models when you trade in an older iPhone. Head to Currys to see how much your device is worth. Amazon offers some good trade-in values, so you should see if you can get more there. Check out Amazon’s Trade In program in the U.S. U.K. readers can see how Amazon trade-in process works here. Apple reseller KRCS also offers a trade-in scheme. Refurbished deals You can save on the iPhone SE by opting for a refurbished model. This is an excellent option for the second-gen model from 2020. Although you’re buying a device that has been pre-owned, buying refurbished isn’t the same as simply buying second-hand, the main difference being that the product has been repaired and rigorously tested to ensure it works just like new. Refurbished devices often come with additional warranty arrangements for peace of mind if you are to run into any issues after purchase. Decluttr (better known as MusicMagpie in the U.K.) is a great source to shop for refurbished deals, although right now its prices are higher than Amazon’s. You reduce the rate if you choose to trade-in your old device or old tech for cashback. When shopping refurbished, look out for Apple Certified Refurbished products. These have been repaired, with parts replaced as needed, and thoroughly tested (and cleaned) to meet the Apple standard. You can find Apple Certified Refurbished iPhones from the Apple Refurbished Store. We have a dedicated guide on buying refurbished iPhones with everything you need to know, as well as the best refurbished iPhone deals. Wondering if there’s a more affordable option than the SE? We answer the question What is the cheapest iPhone? in a separate article. Our iPhone buying guide, meanwhile, offers in-depth advice for those looking to buy or upgrade.

You don’t want to find that you need to enter a new credit card or alternative delivery address when you are attempting to order your iPhone.

How to check your Apple account The summary of your Apple account activities can be found at this link. Log in with your password or touch or Face ID. Check whether the delivery address is still correct. Check whether a current credit card is listed as the payment method. 2. Find the iPhone you want and get ready to pre-order Foundry Following the keynote the new iPhones quickly appeared in Apple’s web store, but with no Buy or Pre-Order option. However, Apple does include a Get Ready To Pre-Order feature which will allow you to save your desired variant as a favourites. Here’s what to do: How to choose your iPhone Find the iPhone you want on the Apple website and you can go to the relevant iPhone 16 or iPhone 16 Pro pre-order page via View Pricing. Choose the exact iPhone you want: model, color, storage, if you have a phone to trade in. Now choose your payment options – whether you want to pay upfront or in monthly payments. If you are in the U.S. at this point you can select your carrier from AT&T, Boost or T-Mobile. (In the U.K. you buy the iPhone unlocked so there is no need to choose a network). Add AppleCare+ if you want to. Now click on Get Ready for Pre-Order On the next page Apple offers you the option to add more accessories, confirm payment information (Apple will verify your card by changing it $/£0), enter contact information, and agree to the terms. Once you have done all these steps click on Save Your Pre-Order Info. Don’t worry – you won’t be charged until you complete your pre-order on pre-order day. 3. Pre-order iPhone You’ll have your new iPhone in your hands in a week or so after you pre-orderApple On the day that pre-orders start the Apple Store is likely to be down right until the pre-orders start. Get ready to refresh the page just before pre-orders commence where you are.

How to set up Find My to alert others to your whereabouts
Macworld Find My lets you track your Apple devices, Find My items like AirTags, and, with their permission, people. You can share location triggers with other people, too, known as geofencing. You can let people know when you arrive or leave at certain locations, including how big the radius is from the location that counts as arriving or leaving. The reason to do so is primarily safety. With another adult or with a responsible child, you might want them to know you got somewhere you intended to, or if you left a location, they were expecting to find you at. You can also request geofence alerts from someone else, too. They have to agree to provide them. If you want to know when a kid gets home from school or leaves the house in the morning, Find My notifications can be a perfect tool: enough information but not too much. For instance, a notification whenever your kid arrives or leaves school might set your mind at rest. (And possibly aggravate them no end.) Here’s how you set this up: In a Find My app in iOS, iPadOS, or macOS, make sure you’re sharing your location with the person you want to provide geofence updates to. In the People tab, select the person. In macOS, additionally click the i (info) icon that appears to the right of their name on the map. Tap or click Add below Notifications. Tap or click Notify Person Name. Choose “I Arrive” or “I Leave,” set a location (which can be your current one), and a frequency. Tap or click Add. The other person is notified that they’ll be alerted of your whereabouts. You can also choose Notify Me in step 4 if that person is sharing their location with you. When you finish step 6, the other person is alerted you’ve requested their location and has to approve it. The setup for Find My notification is a single screen (left). You can drag to adjust the radius of the geofence (right). The setup for Find My notification is a single screen (left). You can drag to adjust the radius of the geofence (right).Foundry The setup for Find My notification is a single screen (left). You can drag to adjust the radius of the geofence (right).Foundry Foundry When setting a location in step 5, you can adjust the sensitivity of alerts by changing a radius. Tap or click New Location. After interacting with the map or entering a location, you can drag the large blue dot to the right of the blue circle to make the area larger or smaller. You can also tap or click Small, Medium, or Large. The area sets the geofence’s boundaries. If large, notifications require that you travel some distance; if small, you might be just dozens of feet away from the center point. Such a feature could easily be misused, which is why Apple provides explicit notifications about it. And, because it’s linked to the People portion of Find My, it only works when you’ve shared your location with someone else or them with you, depending on the direction of the notification.

Apple Intelligence brings advanced, Apple-designed generative models to these new devices, creating a personal intelligence system that offers helpful and relevant insights while prioritizing user privacy. As with the 16 and 16 Plus, the new Camera Control feature provides a quick and intuitive way to access visual intelligence and interact with the enhanced camera system. The iPhone 16 Pro models come equipped with a new 48MP Fusion camera, featuring a faster quad-pixel sensor that supports 4K video recording at 120 frames per second in Dolby Vision, delivering the highest resolution and frame rate ever on an iPhone. Additional camera improvements include a new 48MP Ultra Wide camera for high-resolution photography, including macro shots, and a 5x Telephoto camera on both Pro models. Studio-quality microphones ensure more lifelike audio recordings. The iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max boast a durable yet lightweight titanium design, larger displays, and the thinnest borders ever seen on an Apple product. They also offer significant improvements in battery life, with the iPhone 16 Pro Max delivering the longest battery life of any iPhone to date. Both models will be available in four stunning finishes: black titanium, natural titanium, white titanium, and desert titanium.
