The iPhone 16 leaks continue unabated, and the latest microleak introduces a change to the MagSafe charging ring on the upcoming device The change is detailed on what appears to be a mold of Apple's next-generation iPhone

A French case manufacturer called ShopSystem leaked images of the mold, which were discovered by 9to5Mac The mold confirms a possible iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus camera layout and a slightly thinner MagSafe charging ring

Apple introduced MagSafe in the iPhone 12, changing the way we use iPhones Therefore, we sincerely hope that Apple will add MagSafe to the iPad We are even excited about the patent on MagSafe If Apple's patent for a rotating MagSafe becomes a reality, we will be the first to try it out

That said, the mold leak seems to indicate that the magnet and coil MagSafe ring on the iPhone 16 is thinner than the one on the iPhone 15

ShopSystem estimates that a thinner ring could reduce bulk and improve wireless charging The company also expressed concern that manufacturers would have to adapt their products for these new MagSafe rings However, this seems unlikely Perhaps some of the third-party products may not align exactly, but they appear to be primarily in the same position on the mold

Manufacturers will probably need to make changes to accommodate the new sizes that Apple is expected to introduce with the iPhone 16, including the very large iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max

The mold also appears to confirm changes to the camera layout for the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus Currently, the iPhone 15 features a square form factor with a diagonal camera layout

The iPhone 16 will reportedly move to a smaller pill-like shape with two lenses stacked on top of each other The flash has been moved to the right side of the lens We have seen leaked images of the iPhone 16 before, and these molds seem to justify those images

The iPhone 16 Pro model appears to have the same layout as the iPhone 15 Pro device; the differences between the 15 Pro and 16 Pro are internal, with more megapixels in the lens

The new stacked form factor will likely bring spatial video recording to the iPhone 16, but that remains to be seen
