Our review

On design and display, the Apple iPhone 16 gives you a 6.1-inch Super Retina XDR OLED, 60Hz in a 170g body — that keeps the phone comfortable in one hand and easy in a pocket. For performance, the Apple A18 is paired with 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage — that is strong pace for apps, multitasking and most games. For cameras, you get 48MP main + 12MP ultrawide, plus a 12MP selfie camera — that is a very capable set-up for family photos, travel shots and social video. Battery is 3,561mAh, and charging is 25W MagSafe wireless, USB-C — that is more modest, so heavier users will want to keep a charger handy. Here in Australia it sells for A$1,399 including GST — you are paying for the brand, the design and the top-end extras as much as the hardware, so it is worth waiting for an EOFY, Boxing Day or Click Frenzy deal if you can.
