iPhone 16: Power, Intelligence, and Accessories You’ll Love
The iPhone 16 lineup is finally here, and it’s packed with features that’ll take your tech life to the next level. Whether you’re upgrading your setup or just curious about the latest drop, this release brings more than just speed and power—it’s built for the future, with Apple Intelligence leading the charge. Here’s everything you need to know about the iPhone 16, plus the accessories to match.
Apple Intelligence: Smarter, Faster, More Secure
In the words of Apple CEO Tim Cook, the iPhone 16 has been "built from the ground up" with Apple Intelligence at its core. With features like Private Cloud Compute, it unlocks the power of advanced generative models, giving you secure, on-demand access that goes beyond your iPhone’s capabilities without storing your data. Apple Intelligence is all about efficiency and privacy, making everyday tasks faster while keeping your information safe.
You’ll love how Intelligence streamlines your life: quickly scanning inboxes to summarize emails, prioritizing important notifications, and even making Siri smarter. Siri now understands casual commands and is aware of what’s happening on-screen, guiding you through tasks more comprehensively. Plus, you can create personalized emojis, proofread or rewrite content, search your photo library with keywords, and even shop directly through your camera using Visual Intelligence.
Launching this fall in the US and globally by the end of the year, Apple Intelligence is set to redefine how we interact with our devices. It’ll be available as a free iOS 18 update, allowing iPhone users everywhere to get in on the action.
Powerhouse Performance with the A18 Chip
Under the hood, the new A18 chip makes the iPhone 16 lineup 30% faster than its predecessor, turning multitasking, gaming, and photography into buttery-smooth experiences.
Epic Gaming
For gamers, the A18 brings console-level performance to the palm of your hand, delivering sharper graphics, faster load times, and smooth gameplay with no lag—even for AR and immersive experiences.
Next-Level Photography and Videography
For photographers, the A18’s advanced image signal processor (ISP) supercharges the new camera system, delivering stunning detail, vibrant colors, and excellent low-light performance. From editing 4K videos to capturing HDR shots, the A18’s lightning-fast processing caters to your creativity with expert-level precision. Need fast charging to keep up? Our Duo Wireless Power Stand and Qi2 Car Charger are perfect companions.
If you’re into videography, the iPhone 16 Pro and 16 Pro Max are built for you. With 4K video recording at 120 frames per second, you can capture ultra-smooth slow-motion shots. And with ProRes Log support and external storage compatibility, you get professional-grade video quality and flexibility to expand storage as needed. The audio gets an upgrade, too—spatial audio and four studio-quality microphones bring crisp sound, while the Audio-Mix feature lets you fine-tune every detail. Whether you’re recording dialogue in Studio Mode or blending ambient sound in Cinematic Mode, the iPhone 16 Pro delivers unparalleled control.
New Camera Control Button: Total Shot Control
Apple has reinvented mobile photography with the iPhone 16, and the new Camera Control Button is at the forefront. Acting like a traditional camera shutter, it’s more than just a button—it gives you full control of your shots. Press it firmly to take a photo, hold it down for video, or tap lightly to clear the viewfinder of distractions. Adjust zoom by sliding your finger or switch modes with a double tap. On the Pro models, a light press locks focus on your subject. And thanks to Visual Intelligence, you can even snap photos of flyers to instantly add event details to your calendar or gather info on any object your camera is pointed at.
Built for the Future
The iPhone 16’s game-changing A18 chip isn’t just about speed—it’s ready for whatever comes next. With AI and machine learning capabilities, it powers the latest augmented reality apps and makes your day-to-day tasks smarter and more intuitive. And when it’s time to recharge, our 3-in-1 Foldable Qi2 Wireless Charging Stand has you covered, powering your iPhone, AirPods Pro, and Apple Watch all at once.
MagSafe Charging Just Got Better
The iPhone 16 supports up to 25W MagSafe wireless charging, but you’ll need a 30W USB-C PD GaN Wall Charger or higher to make the most of it. Pair it with our USB-C to USB-C 100W Charging Cable to fast charge your iPhone while also powering up your other devices. To keep your cards, ID, and cash conveniently snapped onto your new phone wherever you go, consider Satechi’s Vegan-Leather Magnetic Wallet Stand.
We’re beyond excited for the iPhone 16, and with the right accessories, you’ll unlock even more possibilities. Stay tuned for more tips and gear to make your iPhone experience even better!
