The new iPhone 16 smartphone series of U.S. technology giant Apple went on sale in Japan on Friday, with more than 10 enthusiasts lined up at an Apple store in Tokyo's Shibuya Ward in the morning to buy iPhone 16 handsets. The store moved its opening time earlier to 8 a.m., but shoppers started to stand in line before the opening. At the start of the line was an engineer in his 30s, who bought the top-of-the-line Pro Max model. I'll be happy if it learns about the ways I use it and makes it easier for me to operate it, he said. All models are equipped with the Apple Intelligence generative artificial intelligence system, designed to help users draft emails and create summaries of transcripts of phone calls.

Apple fans are revelling in one of their favourite occasions of the year – the announcement of a new iPhone. The iPhone 16 unveiled last night features new AI capabilities, camera upgrades plus a boost in battery life, available in a range of colours. But it is surely the arrival of a brand new button on the edge of the device that is getting people most excited. The capture button needs to be pressed once to bring up the camera app to take photos and even delivers haptic feedback, much like a video game controller. Commentators have called the nifty selfie shortcut'incredible' and the'coolest feature ever', but other fans are sharing concerns that it won't work with a case.

As Apple launched the new iPhone 16 at its'Glowtime' event last night, it was the company's latest AI features which took centre stage once again. Now, Apple has finally revealed that its highly anticipated Apple Intelligence will begin to roll out in the US next month. As part of the iOS 18.1 update, iPhone 16 users will get access to AI features including rewriting tools, summarised notifications, and big improvements to Siri. However, UK tech fans will need to wait a little while longer as the California-based tech giant says that Apple Intelligence won't arrive there until December. So, with the rollout of Apple's first-ever AI tools just around the corner, MailOnline breaks down what is coming and when you can expect to try it out.

Apple fans might not have to wait much longer to see the company's new flagship smartphone, the iPhone 16. The California tech giant will unveil the latest generation of iPhones at an in-person event on September 10, according to an alleged online leak. A serial Apple leaker known as Majin Bu shared a screenshot on X, formerly Twitter, which claims to shown the invite to Apple's September special event. The colour of the Apple logo in the invitation also nods to the possibility that fans might be getting a new'bronze' colour for the titanium smartphone. However, social media commenters have been sceptical of the leak's authenticity and even Majin Bu himself says: 'I have no way of verifying that this information is real, but it all seems very plausible considering the latest news.'
