Apple iPhone 16 Series Pre-Sales Begin, Pro Max Sells Out in Seconds

Kuai Technology reported that the newly released Apple iPhone 16 series of mobile phones began pre-sales at 8 pm Beijing time on September 13. However, the official Apple Store channel experienced technical difficulties, with both apps and web pages getting stuck on the welcome page.

Meanwhile, the iPhone 16 Pro Max quickly sold out on e-commerce platforms Tmall and JD.com. Many netizens posted screenshots showing that the snap-up button turned gray in less than a minute.

Before pre-order, the iPhone 16 series had attracted significant attention, with the total number of reservations for the new models on Tmall exceeding one million. The desert gold iPhone 16 Pro Max had the most reservations.

In terms of industrial design, the main change in the iPhone 16 and 16 Plus is the rear camera arrangement, which has been changed from a diagonal arrangement to a vertical arrangement. The main change in the Pro version is reflected in the size of the screen, with the iPhone 16 Pro screen increasing to 6.3 inches.

Another important change is the addition of a camera button. This physical shutter button can also be used to adjust various camera functions, such as exposure and depth of field, by sliding and touching, or to change lenses and digital zoom. This feature is particularly useful for those who often use their mobile phones to shoot.

In terms of core configuration, the iPhone 16 and 16 Plus have A18, while the 16 Pro and 16 Pro Max have A18 Pro. The entire series supports Apple smartphones.
