New CAD renders of the iPhone 16 Pro reveal a glimpse into the phone's design, showcasing familiar elements with some notable changes. Contrary to previous leaks suggesting a major overhaul, these renders obtained by 91Mobiles suggest a more evolutionary design approach.
iPhone 16 Pro CAD Renders Leak
The front view of the iPhone 16 Pro seems to maintain the Dynamic Island feature introduced in the iPhone 15 Pro. Although the sketch displays a notch with two islands for clarity, the final design might resemble its predecessor. On the back, the camera bump's design remains consistent with previous iPhone models, casting doubt on speculations of a radical camera layout.
New Buttons and Display Upgrades
A standout addition in these renders is the introduction of new buttons. The images reveal a rumored "Capture Button" positioned on the left side, possibly replacing the mmWave antenna housing. This button could serve as a dedicated camera button, facilitating quick photo and video capture or offering functions like zoom control. Alternatively, it might function as an AI button, reflecting Apple's emphasis on artificial intelligence.
Despite reports from 91Mobiles and MacRumors suggesting the credibility of the "Capture Button," there are conflicting rumors about the Action Button seen on the iPhone 15 Pro. While some sources hint at a slightly larger Action Button, others claim Apple may have retained the existing design.
Moreover, leaks hint at a slight enlargement in display sizes for both the iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max, increasing from 6.1 inches and 6.7 inches to 6.3 inches and 6.9 inches, respectively. This adjustment aligns with expectations of reduced bezels for a more immersive user experience.
Camera Enhancements and Final Thoughts
The camera system of the iPhone 16 Pro is anticipated to undergo significant improvements. It may adopt the 5X telephoto lens from the iPhone 16 Pro Max, enhancing zoom capabilities. Additionally, leaks suggest the inclusion of a 48MP ultra-wide sensor exclusively for the Pro models.
While the design changes may not be drastic, the iPhone 16 Pro is set to bring interesting refinements. The introduction of new buttons, especially the "Capture Button," promises enhancements for photography and videography enthusiasts. With a larger display and potential camera upgrades, the iPhone 16 Pro appears to be a promising but incremental successor.
It's worth noting that these are leaks, and Apple's final design could vary. Nonetheless, these renders offer a compelling preview of what the iPhone 16 Pro might offer. Earlier this month, 91Mobiles also unveiled CAD renders of the iPhone SE 4, showcasing a design reminiscent of the iPhone 14.
