The iPhone 16 is due for some big upgrades if the latest rumors are to be believed. According to CTEE (per AppleInsider), Apple is planning on putting the latest and greatest A18 chip in both the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Pro models, which would close the performance gap that’s typically existed between devices in the lineup. This is a significant and fairly positive change for people who usually buy the base or Plus model due to cost reasons.

Did you purchase an iPhone and have issues with your new phone? You may be able to recover damages of up to $349 in a new class action settlement. It all stems back to a class action filed againt Apple that alleges that their iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 plus devices had certain defect related to their "audio IC" chips. The basis of the claim is that some affected devices had faulty connection of some of the parts in the logical circuit board. These faulty connections caused affected devices to have issues with either their microphone or speaker function, or both. Specifically, the speaker button would become grayed out and users reported that they couldn't access certain voice apps. It's worth noting that apple denies these claims, but has decided to settle the class action filed against them for $35 million dollars.
