iPhone 16 could let you shoot in JPEG-XL
The iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Pro are expected to support JPEG-XL, reducing file sizes significantly while enhancing image quality and storage efficiency for high-resolution photos.
Read original articleThe upcoming iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Pro are expected to support the JPEG-XL image format, which offers file sizes that are three times smaller than traditional JPEGs. This new feature is part of a broader upgrade to the camera specifications of these devices. JPEG-XL, developed by the Joint Photographic Experts Group, utilizes a compression algorithm called Modular Entropy Coding, allowing for both lossy and lossless compression. It can handle images up to 1 terapixel and supports advanced features like HDR and wide color gamuts. The introduction of JPEG-XL is significant as it could help optimize storage, especially with the iPhone's capability to capture 48MP images. While JPEG-XL has not yet achieved widespread adoption, its integration into Apple's ecosystem could enhance its popularity, similar to the earlier adoption of the HEIF format. Currently, JPEG-XL is not fully supported across all platforms, but its potential benefits for image quality and file size make it a promising successor to JPEG.
- iPhone 16 may support JPEG-XL, reducing file sizes by 3x compared to JPEG.
- JPEG-XL offers advanced features like HDR and supports both lossy and lossless compression.
- The format is designed to optimize storage for high-resolution images, such as 48MP photos.
- Widespread adoption of JPEG-XL is still pending, but Apple's support could boost its usage.
- JPEG-XL is seen as a future-proof successor to traditional JPEG, with better compression rates.

At the bottom of the page it has animation demonstration, that doesn’t appear to work on my iPhone 13 Pro.
Does JPEG-XL really include animation support?
