iPhone 16 Plus Repair

The iPhone 16 Plus was announced on September 9th, 2024, during Apple's Glowtime event, alongside the other iPhone 16 models, AirPods, and the Series 10 Apple Watch. The iPhone 16 Plus as well as the other models in the lineup were designed around Apple Intelligence, Apple's suite of AI-driven features that enable more intuitive and complex tasks based on users' everyday behavior.

The iPhone 16 Plus features a dual-camera system similar to the iPhone 15 Plus, with a 48 MP main camera and a 12 MP ultra-wide camera. A standout feature in the iPhone 16 lineup is Camera Control, a new exterior button for capturing photos and videos. This physical button, which also supports capacitive touch controls, is located on the lower half of the right edge, perfectly positioned for your right pointer finger when taking landscape photos. The iPhone 16 Plus also features a customizable action button, making it an easy shortcut to directly go to applications like the camera or enable handy functions like the flashlight or Silent Mode.

The iPhone 16 Plus is priced $100 above the regular iPhone 16 at $899 for a 128 GB model. It is available in five colors: Ultramarine, Teal, Pink, White, and Black.

You can identify the iPhone 16 Plus by the model number printed inside of the USB-C charge port.

• A3082
• A3289
• A3290
• A3291

You can also find the model number through the phone's UI by going to the Settings app and navigating to General > About. Tap on the number listed in the Model Number section and it should change to a format that looks like the numbers above.

Additionally, Apple offers a quick online tool to help identify your devices: Identify your iPhone model.

The iPhone 16 Plus features a 6.7-inch (diagonal) flat glass screen, thin black bezels, a pill-shaped, black "dynamic island" at the top of the screen, matte back glass, and aluminum side rails.

Volume controls and the Action Button can be found on the left edge, while the power button and new Camera Control button are situated on the right. A square camera "bump" containing two cameras aligned vertically protrudes from the back case. This model has no home button.

The iPhone 16 Plus can be differentiated from the iPhone 16 by its larger screen (relative to the 6.1-inch screen on the iPhone 16 model).

The iPhone 16 Plus can be differentiated from the previous generation iPhone 15 Plus by its vertical aligned cameras, Action Button, and Camera Control button.
