It is predicted that this year's iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus duo will have 5 new color versions, more eye-catching than the previous version.
All eyes of tech fans are on Google's Pixel 9 event - which will take place in mid-August. However, Apple fans are more interested in the iPhone 16 "family", expected to launch in September 2024.
Expected color versions of iPhone 16.
Recently, source Sonny Dickson shared model images of the iPhone 16. These images are more glossy than previous images, possibly Apple's final design.
According to previous rumors, "Apple House" may change the design of the rear camera cluster by placing two cameras in a vertical layout. This may be the method applied by the company this year, supporting image playback on Apple Vision Pro glasses.
Color versions of iPhone 15.
According to these images, the iPhone 16 will have color versions: White, Black, Blue, Green and Pink. These options are enough to satisfy the diverse needs of users.
Previously, last year, the iPhone 15 generation had 5 similar colors with pastel tones and a matte glass back. The image of the iPhone 16 model has more saturated and darker colors, the glass back is quite smooth and shiny.

Also according to source Sonny Dickson, the iPhone 16 series will have many size versions, with the iPhone 16 Pro Max having the largest size, with a 6.9-inch screen.
Of course, everything about the new iPhone generation at the moment is still just a rumor. Let's wait and see what interesting things Apple will bring to the new iPhone 16 line!
One of the problems that iPhone users face is limited storage capacity as Apple has kept the internal memory of iPhone the same for many years.
Apple has been slowly increasing the storage capacity of its base models. The company still offers 64GB iPhone options in 2020, but the iPhone 15 still starts at 128GB, while the iPhone 15 Pro Max starts at 256GB.
iPhone could offer 2TB internal storage option by 2026.
The company has stuck with the 1TB maximum storage for a long time, though, largely because of the cost. For example, the MacBook Pro with 2TB of storage costs $400 more. But with Macs and iPad Pros now topping out at 2TB, Apple is actually looking to expand storage to more products in the future, including the iPhone.
This makes sense as TrendForce says Apple wants to start adopting 2TB quad-level cell (QLC) storage technology in 2026, which would coincide with the iPhone 18 series. Unlike the triple-level cell (TLC) offered on current iPhone models, the new technology will be less expensive, allowing Apple to offer iPhone models with higher storage capacities.
2 TB internal memory will help solve the storage problem.
Although QLC is slower than TLC, users don't have to worry too much because the performance difference is very small, while the storage benefits are very high. In particular, the company could pave the way for QLC flash memory for 1TB options in the future, allowing users to own them at a cheaper price.
According to the report, Apple is currently in the process of transitioning and implementing the new technology will not take too long, QLC can even be applied this year, except that there is still no 2TB option.
