Apple has just opened pre-orders for the iPhone 16 series, with the new devices arriving in stores on September 20.
There’s been a lot of excitement around this year’s iPhone, with Apple’s AI integration taking centre stage at the California launch event.
Timed earlier than usual to avoid clashing with the US Presidential debate, the event gave us an exciting first glimpse at the new handsets.
As always, Apple had a few surprises up its sleeve, some of which fans have been waiting on for years, like a ‘Pause Video’ function on the new iOS 18.
Sean Keach, our Tech and Science Editor, was among the lucky few to get an early peek at the new iPhone ahead of its release.
He tested the new Camera Control button, one of its ‘best new features’ and was won over by the new tricks for the latest AirPods and Apple Watch.
The latest iPhone range also includes a ‘genius money-saving perk‘ that’ll help users get even more life out of their devices.
We’re excited to try out the new iPhone ourselves. Keep reading to discover where you can pre-order it and check out some of the best early deals.
