Apple is gearing up for the iPhone 16 launch next week, but leaks suggest that the smaller iPhone 16 may not live up to the hype.
While the phone will be capable of running Apple's new AI software, Apple Intelligence, it may be underpowered in the long run.
The full suite of Apple Intelligence won't be available until March 2025, meaning buyers will be purchasing the iPhone 16 based on promises rather than immediate functionality.
Furthermore, a more affordable iPhone SE with similar capabilities will also be released in March, potentially making the iPhone 16 a less appealing purchase.
