Apple Event: ⁣iPhone ⁢16 Series Release Date‌ and Expected Features

The wait is​ almost over‍ for Apple enthusiasts. The Apple event is scheduled⁤ to take place on September 9 at 10 a.m. Pacific time, which translates‍ to 2 a.m. on September ⁢10 in Japan.

As expected, the new iPhone ⁢16 series is likely to be unveiled during this⁤ event. We will be providing real-time updates on ⁤Gizmodo, so be sure to check it out.

Based on the rumors so far, ‌it seems that⁣ the iPhone 16 Pro models will start with a base storage of 256GB. This is a significant upgrade from the current iPhone 15 Pro, which starts with 128GB.

Why⁣ 256GB for Pro? Overcoming Limitations on Shooting Functions

Increasing the base model’s storage capacity is a natural evolution. However,⁢ the capacity of the Pro model is particularly​ noteworthy. The current iPhone 15 Pro starts with 128GB,⁢ which has limitations on certain shooting functions.

Specifically, when shooting video using Apple ProRes, the video‍ recording resolution and frame ‍rate are limited when using ⁤internal storage.

・ 256GB model: up to 4K / 60 fps

・ 128GB model: ⁤up to 1080p HD‌ / 30 fps

The 128GB model has a lower image quality. While this may not have a significant impact ⁣on actual use, it ⁣is unbalanced that ‍the ‍functions differ even though it’s the same smartphone.

Will this limitation be resolved with the iPhone 16 Pro?

It’s essential to carefully review the specifications of the iPhone 16 Pro⁢ to avoid any surprises. Additionally, ‌the increased storage capacity may‍ lead to a higher base price, which is a ‌concern.
