Short clips circulating online show two distinct iPhone 16 models in black and bronze finishes.
The first clip, featuring the black variant of the baseline iPhone 16, was published by insider Majin Bu on his X account. The footage reinforces the upgraded design, with the dual cameras arranged vertically to support spatial video capture for later viewing on the Apple Vision Pro headset.
Another 23-second clip has surfaced on the TechBoiler YouTube channel, allegedly depicting an unboxing of the iPhone 16 Pro Max in a new Desert Titanium bronze hue. Yet, the video mirrors the packaging, camera layout, and screen presentation that previously appeared with the iPhone 15 Pro Max, which were never included. Nevertheless, the clip provides a first look at the color itself, described as a nuanced shade between bronze and brown rather than a pure gold.
The iPhone 16 Pro Max mockup also appears to show a capture button on the right side. It remains unclear whether this will be a physical button or a capacitive control. The visible cutout inside the cylinder case hints at a touch-sensitive solution being planned.
The iPhone 16 is scheduled to be unveiled on September 9 at 20:00 Moscow time.
