TheiPhone15 range has introduced a number of new innovations toApple’s smartphone offering, most noticeably the incredible Tetra-Prism lens on the iPhone 15 Pro Max, but as an insatiable bunch, we’re already thinking about next year’s model.

TheiPhone 16(as it will almost certainly be called) has already had plenty of speculation around it, including a potential big redesign to improveoverheatingperformance. New rumours however from a renowned leaker sound slightly more futuristic.

TipsterMin Chi Kuohas suggested that the iPhone 16 will feature a “substantial upgrade in microphone specifications” which could be to assist with another rumoured change, a significant focus on AI integration.
