Android #16 is a towering android with red hair and green armor. Unlike his counterparts, he possesses a gentle nature, which led Dr. Gero to consider him a failure. His primary mission was to eliminate Goku. He was activated by Androids 17 and 18, much to Dr. Gero's dismay. Despite being significantly stronger than the two, he followed their commands.
He assisted Android 18 in escaping from Imperfect Cell and observed the Cell Games after she was absorbed, vowing to stop Cell. His body was destroyed by Perfect Cell, but his head remained intact. He asked Mr. Satan to throw him into the battle to help Gohan gain control. After delivering his message, Cell obliterated #16, crushing his head and pushing Gohan to transform into Super Saiyan 2. In Trunks' timeline, Android #16 was never activated.
