The iPhone 16 leakages are beginning to accumulate now, ahead of an anticipated launch in September, and the most recent report to reach us recommends the phone is going to feature RAM and storage upgrades– particularly to accommodate the additional AI functions on board.
This originates from a report out of South Korea (through popular tipster @ Tech_Reve), which specifies that the base level iPhone 16 might include either 8GB of RAM, 256GB of storage, or both, to provide the incorporated AI additional space to believe, shop, and procedure commands.
For contrast, the most inexpensive iPhone 15 includes 6GB of RAM and 128GB of storage (though 256GB and 512GB variations are likewise readily available). The additional headroom is essential for the extra work that generative AI tools require.
Just Google’s tiniest AI design, Gemini Nano, is compact enough to fit on a mobile phone– particularly, the Pixel 8 Pro and the Samsung Galaxy S24 handsets. That may alter moving forward, however a great deal of AI computations are presently unloaded to the cloud.

Apple prides itself on doing as much computing work as possible in your area, without moving streams of information to and from servers online. It suggests more of your information is saved entirely on your phone or laptop computer, where it’s safe and personal.
If that’s going to occur with the AI functions that Apple has actually been appealing, then the iPhone 16 might well require some additional grunt. As this tipster acknowledges however, absolutely nothing is validated yet, and Apple’s strategies might still alter. It likewise raises the concern of just how much of this AI performance may drip down to older, less effective handsets.
We do not understand precisely what these AI functions from Apple are going to be, however all the indications are that iOS 18 will include a lot of generative AI tools comparable to those we’ve seen in other phones (and unusually enough, Google may be assisting).
