Apple iPhone 16 Plus 128GB Black
£270.99
Apple introduced iPhone 16 Plus on 9 September 2024 with A18, updated cameras and new controls. This black 128GB variant offers a large format to compare with Pro models for features and price. For a smaller size, iPhone 16 shares the key functions on a smaller screen. ## Display and design The 6.7-inch OLED display keeps iPhone 15 Plus's size and offers colour, contrast and room for videos, photos and games. Dynamic Island shows supported notifications and activities. Sharing a diagonal does not itself mean increased brightness, resolution or runtime: these depend on specifications, settings and use. ## Camera and spatial video The vertical camera layout supports compatible spatial video recording. Main and Ultra Wide provide different framing. The 12MP Ultra Wide with f/2.2 aperture and autofocus expands capture options including macro photography; lighting and depth results depend on the scene, without guaranteed perfect photos in every condition. ## Camera Control and Action button Camera Control on the right side combines a click mechanism, pressure sensing and a capacitive surface to open the camera, take photos, record video and adjust supported functions such as focus or zoom. Side and volume buttons remain physical controls. The Action button can be configured for supported actions and shortcuts. These functions require the relevant device state and settings. ## A18 performance A18 combines a six-core CPU with a Neural Engine for supported machine-learning functions. It provides capability for games, editing and multitasking, with performance and efficiency depending on apps, settings and workload. ## USB-C connection USB-C supports charging and data transfer with compatible cables and accessories. Share a suitable cable with Mac or iPad according to power and connection requirements. MagSafe wireless charging and compatible magnetic accessories are also supported; attachment depends on the accessory and case. ## Design and sustainability The design includes recycled materials and energy management to use the battery efficiently, with runtime depending on use. Apple has a carbon-neutrality goal for 2030. These describe design decisions and goals rather than certifying zero impact for every purchase. ## Apple Intelligence Compatible iPhone 16 models support Apple Intelligence for functions such as Writing Tools, photo search, image creation, Genmoji and memories, according to software and individual feature availability. Siri and Camera Control-related functions can help with supported tasks. The system combines on-device processing and Private Cloud Compute for certain requests, designed to protect data. At its 2024 introduction, Apple stated that its data centres, including those powering Apple Intelligence, used 100% renewable electricity. This describes those data centres rather than all energy for every task on your phone. Compatible system software, settings and supported languages are required; features vary by region. ## iOS 18 and personalisation The range launched with iOS 18, adding options to organise and personalise apps, icons and widgets. Available functions depend on installed software and settings; compatible updates may expand the options. ## iPhone 15 Plus versus iPhone 16 Plus iPhone 16 Plus moves from A16 to A18, adds Camera Control and the Action button, and updates the camera system. These changes add options over 15 Plus, with performance depending on apps. ## Why choose iPhone 16 Plus Its large display, A18, cameras and controls may appeal if you want this format for daily use. Assess features and price according to your needs and size preferences. ## Explore the iPhone 16 range iPhone 16 Pro has a smaller display than Plus and other Pro functions, especially cameras. Pro Max offers the range's largest display with those functions. Compare capability and size to choose.
