00:00We're back in Cupertino for iPhones.
00:10It's iPhone season and the 16 is here.
00:13That's the iPhone 16, 16 Plus, the 16 Pro, and the 16 Pro Max.
00:18Should I talk about the button first?
00:21So we're getting a new button this year.
00:23It's called the camera control button.
00:25It's kind of a mashup of a mechanical button and there's some haptic-taptic controls.
00:29Basically, it'll launch the camera app from wherever you are on the lock screen or the
00:33phone and you can control some of the settings and take a picture or start video.
00:39It's pretty cool.
00:40I love a button.
00:41I love taking photos, so it's a win.
00:44Played around with it a little bit and it's kind of funny getting a feel for it.
00:47You kind of have to push pretty hard to take a photo and then you kind of have to do a
00:51light double tap to change the settings and slide your finger across to change the zoom
00:57or whatever.
00:58I don't know.
00:59I think I'll get used to it, but we'll see.
01:01So the camera control is on all four phones.
01:04Pro phones get an A18 Pro chipset this year and they get bigger screens.
01:09Both other phones are a little bit wider and a little bit taller, so there's just a little
01:13more screen real estate.
01:14The Pro is a 6.3-inch screen now and the Pro Max is a 6.9-inch screen, which is huge.
01:20We got a new color this year called Desert Titanium, which is kind of a goldish color.
01:27It looks better than I thought it would in person.
01:30It looked a little bit brown in the rumors, I'm not going to lie, and I like what they
01:34did here.
01:35There's a bunch of new camera features we didn't really get to test in this space.
01:38There's 4K video at 120fps now.
01:41There's a new microphone array, so some video stuff we're going to have to put through the
01:45paces.
01:46So you'll notice right off the bat on the iPhone 16 and 16 Plus that the camera bump
01:51went kind of sideways this year.
01:53It looks a little different and it enables spatial video in case you have an Apple Vision
01:57Pro lying around at home.
02:00I don't know.
02:01There are new colors this year and they're definitely a lot more saturated than they
02:05were last year.
02:06So there's a teal, an ultramarine, and a pink, and they look great.
02:11So the regular iPhones come with an A18 chip this year.
02:15It's not a Pro chip, but it's in the same family.
02:18And what ties them all together is this Apple Intelligence, the set of AI features.
02:24We heard about it at WWDC.
02:26We heard a lot about it today.
02:28And the demo units we tested had some of those features live.
02:32We got the little glowing Siri and some of the AI writing features.
02:38But the catch is, they're not going to be shipping on these phones.
02:41They're coming later this year and they'll be available first in beta.
02:45The 16 and the 16 Plus also get the action button that came on the Pro models last year.
02:50So that's a feature for everybody now.
02:53And you know, if you're feeling spicy, you can program your coffee order in there.
02:58I don't know.
02:59It's a free idea.
03:00All the new iPhone 16 models are available to pre-order this Friday, September 13th.
03:07Spooky day.
03:08They're all going to ship the following Friday, the 20th.
