iPhone 16 Pro Price Could Be Maintained At $999, With Slimmer Bezels, New A18 SoC, AI Features And More Sound Reasons To Upgrade
Apple introduced a $999 starting price back when it introduced the iPhone X, ushering in a new ultra-premium category of flagships, and it followed up with an even larger version while charging an additional sum. The company has not taken a backseat in this approach, but despite getting several generations of iPhone launches, the smaller ‘Pro’ version never crept beyond the $999 threshold, despite countless rumors clamoring otherwise. According to the latest rumor, the iPhone 16 Pro price for the base model is said to remain unchanged, which is an excellent strategy, and it means more features for consumers without throwing away a dime extra.

While this means that both high-end models will feature a tetraprism zoom lens, the specifications will remain essentially unchanged.

The touch-sensitive camera button is said to be present on all iPhone 16 models, and thanks to the 10 percent battery capacity increase on the iPhone 16 Pro, the latter is expected to last longer.
