Apple confirms the iPhone 16 has 8GB of RAM

Apple Intelligence called for a memory boost in iPhones.

Apple VP of hardware tech Johny Srouji confirmed as much in an interview with Geekerwan, published yesterday, that 9to5Mac spotted. Apple hadn’t previously stated how much RAM the iPhone 16 line has, but MacRumors discovered references to the 8GB number in Xcode after the phones were announced. Aside from that, Srouji spends the roughly 17-minute interview discussing the company's hardware performance philosophy, characteristics of the A18 chips in the new phones, Apple’s approach to thermal design, and iPhone 16 and 16 Pro video and image processing.
