Apple could fix this major iPhone 16 flaw with iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Air
Apple’s iPhone 16 series made its debut at a much-hyped event on 9 September, and the new devices have recently gone on sale around the world. While the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus received some major upgrades from last year, they were still lacking in one important area – the display. The iPhone 16 models came with a 60Hz refresh rate at a time when 120Hz displays have become the norm, even in the budget segment.
According to analyst Ross Young, the iPhone 17 and iPhone 17 Air (or Slim) could finally feature a 120Hz LTPO AMOLED display with ProMotion technology.
Notably, while 120Hz LTPO AMOLED displays have been the norm on iPhone Pro models for years, they have been absent from standard iPhone models. However, it seems that Apple is finally looking to change course with the next iPhone range. Earlier reports have suggested that Apple will get rid of the Plus variant in favour of a Slim or Air variant with the iPhone 17 series.
iPhone 16 more powerful than before:
The iPhone 16 models may not have a 120Hz display, but they do come with a number of significant upgrades over their predecessors. For example, the iPhone 16 and 16 Plus feature a brand new A18 chipset, which is said to be the same proccessor as the iPhone 16 Pro models, but with a slower clock speed.
Meanwhile, the iPhone 16 variants also come with the Action Button, which was introduced with the Pro line-up last year. It also gets a new Camera Control button to take pictures, adjust frames and access other camera features with ease.
Apple’s vice president of hardware engineering, Johny Srouji, has also confirmed that the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus come with 8GB of RAM, compared to the 6GB of RAM found on its predecessor. The RAM upgrade has been made to help the new iPhones run the Apple Intelligence (read AI) features in iOS 18 with ease.
