From Camera Control to Bigger Displays: 5 new iPhone features to look out for

Apple has been synonymous with innovation, and there have been quite a few fascinating upgrades introduced to the iPhone lineup over the course of years. Only a week ago, Apple unveiled its latest offering with the iPhone 16 series and brought forth a bunch of exciting features for eager enthusiasts.

In case you’re in the market for one of the newer iPhones – iPhone 16, iPhone 16 Plus, iPhone 16 Pro, iPhone 16 Pro Max – here are some of the features you should keep an eye out for.

5 latest iPhone features to look out for

Whether you’re a casual user or a passionate photographer, the iPhone 16 lineup comes with something for everyone. Here are five notable upgrades that you may have missed out on:  

Camera Control: One of the most prominent highlights of the iPhone 16 series is the new Camera Control button. The button, which is designed to mirror a shutter button, is a physical button on the bottom right side of the phone. It can respond to tactile gestures for functions such as focus and can also be hard-pressed to click a picture.

Lower minimum brightness: If you’ve ever felt your iPhone was ‘too bright’ even with the brightness levels set at a minimum, you’re not the only one. Apple, however, has a solution for this problem and has now reduced it to 1 nit with the iPhone 16 series, which is ideal for those who prefer to keep it low.

Spatial photos and videos: Another notable upgrade now allows the iPhone 16 series to shoot spatial photos, as well as videos, for the Apple Vision Pro. The addition, which was only available for the iPhone 15 Pro series will now be an inclusion to the entry-level iPhone 16 as well. It will allow users to click photos with better depth data, which helps them look immersive on the virtual reality headset.  

Faster Wi-Fi connectivity: Apple’s latest iPhones will also come with Wi-Fi 7 as well as faster speed support. Wi-Fi 7 can sustain speeds up to 46 Gbps, and is also reportedly five times faster than its predecessor, Wi-Fi 6E. Apart from that, Wi-Fi 7 can also significantly reduce interference along with any possible signal congestion.

Extended macro photography: Apple introduced the macro mode with its iPhone 13 series; however, it was not made available to the vanilla and Plus variants ever since. This time around, the iPhone 16 sports a new ultra-wide camera, which will now allow users to take stunning close-up shots.
