The materials leaked by Singh appear to be from China and include a specs sheet for the iPhone 16 which shows that the phone is powered by the A18 application processor (AP), includes a 48MP camera to shoot video for the Vision Pro, and sports a USB-C port. Another image focuses on the new 48MP Ultra-wide camera on the iPhone 16 Pro and points out how the phone is powered by the A18 Pro AP. This page also mentions that the Tetraprism periscope camera will bring 5x optical zoom to the iPhone 16 Pro. It already has been available on the iPhone 15 Pro Max and presumably the iPhone 16 Pro Max.

There are also multiple pages of photos showing the 2024 iPhone models in various colors. And while this all looks legit, the information listed in the leak has been rumored for months now. That includes the Tetraprism lens for the iPhone 16 Pro, the use of two 3nm A18 chipsets for the new phones (A18 and the more capable A18 Pro for the non-Pro and Pro models respectively), the vertical camera design for the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Pro, and the 48MP sensor backing the Ultra-wide lens on the iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max.
The latest rumor calls for Apple to hold the new product event on September 10th featuring the new iPhone 16 series, the Apple Watch Series 10, the Apple Watch SE 3, and the Apple Watch Ultra 3. We also could see the fourth-gen Apple AirPods with two variants. One will be a basic model while the other will include Active Noise Cancelation (ANC). Under this rumored scenario, pre-orders would start on September 13th with the new iPhone models expected to be released on September 20th.
