All iPhone 16 Pro models feature an "Always On," haptic-touch enabled 6.3-inch (diagonal) "Super Retina XDR" display with ProMotion (2622x1206, 460 ppi, 120Hz refresh rates) that covers nearly the entire front of the device. It is equipped with four cameras. The front-facing "TrueDepth" camera, housed in the "Dynamic Island," supports Face ID, has an f/1.9 aperture, captures 12-megapixel photos, and records 4K Dolby Vision video.

The iPhone 16 Pro is built with a "Titanium" case featuring flat sides and an aluminum "internal structural frame," with a glass front and back. The front is protected by a "Ceramic Shield" cover for durability, and the back has an integrated "MagSafe" magnetic charging connector. It is rated IP68 for splash, water, and dust resistance (up to a maximum depth of 6 meters for 30 minutes). It is available in four subdued "Titanium" color options: "Desert" (Beige-Gold), Natural (Gray), White, and Black.


Internally, the iPhone 16 Pro is powered by a 4.0 GHz Apple A18 Pro processor with a six-core CPU (two performance cores and four efficiency cores), a 6-core GPU, and a 16-core Neural Engine. It includes 8 GB of RAM and is available with 128 GB, 256 GB, 512 GB, or 1 TB of flash storage. It also supports 802.11be Wi-Fi 7 with 2x2 MIMO, 5G wireless, Bluetooth 5.3, "second generation" Ultra Wideband, NFC for Apple Pay, "Express Cards with power reserve" for compatible transit systems, Thread networking, Crash Detection, Emergency SOS and Roadside Assistance via satellite, a USB-C port (with USB 3 support), a new "Camera Control" button (in addition to a hardware "Action" button), and support for Apple Intelligence AI features.
