Android #16 is a large android with red hair and a green armor. Unlike other androids, #16 is gentle by nature, which deemed him a failure in Dr. Gero's eyes. His only objective was to kill Goku. He was awakened by Androids 17 and 18, much to Gero's dismay. While he was much stronger than the two, he took orders.
He helped 18 escape from Imperfect Cell, and watched the Cell Games after she was absorbed, vowing to stop Cell. His body is destroyed by Perfect Cell, however, his head survives, and requests that Mr. Satan throw him over to the fight, to help Gohan control himself. Cell completely destroys #16 after he gets his word, crushing his head and pushing Gohan over the edge to Super Saiyan 2. In Trunks' time-line, Android #16 was never activated.
