Frequent leaker Sonny Dickson has revealed a photo purporting to show the forthcoming iPhone 16 lineup, and the screen sizes for each of the four models.
The image, which appears on Dickson's X/Twitter account, supports recent rumors of different screen sizes for every model. With the iPhone 14 and 15 lineup, screen sizes are the same between the standard and Pro sizes, at 6.1 inches.
Likewise, the existing Plus and Pro Max screen sizes are also identical, at 6.7 inches. This was also true of the iPhone 14 lineup.
The 6.1-inch screen size has been standard for the regular and Pro models of iPhone since the iPhone 12, though it was first used in the iPhone XR from 2018. The 6.7-inch larger Pro Max size was introduced with the iPhone 12, and was adopted by the Plus models with their introduction in the iPhone 14 lineup.
As seen in the photo above, the standard iPhone 16 will keep the 6.1-inch screen size, but the Pro will move to a 6.3-inch screen. The Plus will keep the traditional 6.7-inch screen, but the Pro Max will move to a new 6.9-inch screen, making it noticeably bigger.
In addition, the photo appears to show that the next Pro and Pro Max models are again slightly wider than the regular and Plus sizes. This was also the case for the iPhone 15 lineup.
Apple is expected to formally unveil its iPhone 16 lineup in the fall of this year, alongside iOS 18.

Yeah…no excitement there.
yeah, blew the lid right off the…
Looks like the same old smartphone
Futzing around with screen sizes is all marketing. Not technical advancement or achievement.
Fascinating.
The march towards increasingly unusable phone sizes continues. Bring back a mini sized phone. Don't leave me stranded with my 12 mini for yet another upgrade cycle.
