iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Pro deliveries begin across Asia, the Middle East and Europe

As more countries begin to wake up on Friday, September 20, iPhone 16, iPhone 16 Plus, iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max deliveries are now beginning to arrive to customers across Asia, the Middle East and Europe, with online pre-orders now either beginning to be delivered or available for in-store pickup.

Customers in Australia and New Zealand were first to receive the iPhone 16 today, where Friday, September 20 arrived ahead of the rest of the world because of the international time difference.

As Apple begins to open the doors to its retail stores across Asia, the Middle East and Europe, it leaves North America as the final continent yet to start receiving new iPhone orders, which will begin within the coming hours.

The iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus come in a range of vibrant colors and feature significant camera enhancements. These include a 48MP Fusion camera with a 2x Telephoto option and a 12MP Ultra Wide camera for improved low-light performance and macro photography. Powered by the new A18 chip, the models boast up to 30% faster CPU performance, 40% faster graphics, improved battery life, and the Action button from the iPhone 15 Pro for quick access to key functions.

The iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max offer larger displays and a more durable titanium design. They also introduce an upgraded 48MP Fusion camera system with advanced video capabilities, including 4K120 fps Dolby Vision recording. Both Pro models are powered by the A18 Pro chip, which features a 16-core Neural Engine and a 6-core GPU for enhanced performance and efficiency. The iPhone 16 Pro Max delivers the longest battery life of any iPhone, and both models include new Camera Control features and enhanced audio recording capabilities.
