Summer is approaching and with it the expected debut of the iPhone 16 series in September. Anticipation is growing and more and more details about the new models are finding their way onto the Internet. A particularly interesting update comes from analyst Ross Young, who recently reported on the start of iPhone 16 display production in a subscriber post on X. Below you will find out everything you need to know about the production and market launch of the iPhone 16 and what you can expect from the new models.
Since the release of the first iPhone, Apple has continuously pushed the boundaries of technology. Every year, millions of users eagerly await the latest innovations. The iPhone 16 is no exception. With the Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) approaching and the planned launch in September, expectations are high.
Panels will soon go into production
According to the analysts Ross Young expects to start production of panels for the new iPhone 16 in June, which is in line with the iPhone 15 production schedule last year. If all goes according to plan, this means the iPhone 16 will launch in mid-September, like last year's iPhone 15. Young stresses that of the entire iPhone 16 lineup, which is expected to include four models again, the highest volumes for the iPhone 16 and 16 Pro are expected in June. Production of the 16 Plus and 16 Pro Max is expected to start later in the summer.
Dummy units show larger displays
Also released today were dummy units for the iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max. These dummy models show the expected larger displays of this year's models. This increase in size is the first notable change in display sizes since the iPhone 12 series. This innovation could be a deciding factor for many users who rely on larger screens for an improved user experience.
production plan and possible challenges
While the news that production of iPhone 16 panels has begun is reassuring, it remains to be seen whether there could be any production issues. Manufacturing the new display sizes in particular could pose challenges. Apple needs to produce millions of iPhones before the fall launch to meet high demand. If there are no delays, the new models could be in users' hands as planned in September.

Production of the iPhone 16 models is scheduled to begin in June before they hit the market in September.

Thanks to information from Ross Young, we can look forward to production and market launch on schedule.
