Apple announced the new iPhone 16 and 16 Pro series models on Sept. 9, and the focus on this year’s smartphones was Apple Intelligence with an even smarter Siri. But generative artificial intelligence isn’t the only new feature these devices come with. There are improved cameras, more advanced processors, new buttons, and more. Preorders go live at the end of the week.

At the “It’s Glowtime” event on Monday, Sept. 9, Apple showed off the new iPhone lineup and other devices, including new Apple Watch and AirPods models. As for the new iPhones, here’s the release schedule:

• Sept. 9: Announcement

There are four new iPhone models with different starting prices. All models start at the same price as last year’s iPhone 15 series lineup:
