So the trend with Apple has been that the SoC from the current generation Pro and Pro Max devices becomes the SoC for the next generation of baseline devices. For instance the iPhone 14 Pro Max and iPhone 15 have the same SoC (A16 Bionic). And this trend holds all the way back to iPhone 12.

It's almost certain that the iPhone 16 will ship with 8GB of RAM. What needs to be seen is whether iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Maxes will ship with 16GB of RAM (Like with high end M1/M2 iPad Pros with >= 1TB SSD).

So I plotted iPhones RAM and I fail to see a trend that could lead to doubling current RAM to 16GB.

12 Pro Max had 6GB RAM

15 Pro Max has 8GB RAM

16 most likely will have between 8GB and 12GB RAM.
