[@devinwutup]

The problem is that the changes in the iPhone 16 (all models) were so minor this year that it clearly didn’t deserve the "16" branding. The iPhone 16 and 16 Plus have a slightly bigger battery, a minor design update with the action button, a slightly better camera than last year, and a new photo-taking button. The iPhone 16 Pro and 16 Pro Max feature a bigger screen, a new battery, a slightly better camera with a photo button, and a new titanium finish. I’m not a hater or anything-I love Apple, and I upgrade every year from the Pro Max to the new Pro Max, using all of the new features. But the truth is, this year, with the phones looking so similar to last year’s models, I feel they should have just called them the 15S instead.

[@thecapone45]

Yeah I agree. And the EU basically got last year’s model with a better battery and new button. To the EU, it’s an even lesser upgrade. I’d likely still upgrade because I’d be coming from an iPhone 11 and iPhone SE (2020), which is really just like an iPhone 8. And that one looking like an iPhone 6.

[@junkiexl86]

I mean the 15 was just a 14 with a 0.2mm sliver of titanium around the bezels, that in drop tests did basically nothing vs previous models. You had a run benchmarks between the 14 and 15 just to see the CPU/GPU improvements. Thats about it. I guess you can kind of make the argument the "pro" CPU in the 15 Pro's enable and is now is requirement for Apple AI, but even then from what Ive seen, its doesn't really offer any real benefits to the average user base that Siri wasn't already doing on previous phones. Even the camera doesn't get a pass. In comparison examples, the 16 looks the exact same as the 13, unless you crop in really tight to "spot the differences". Outside of RAW, Apple has done almost nothing with the 48MP sensor since it debuted on the 14

And by the time all of the features are available, we'll be a month or two away from the iPhone 17, so we might as well wait an extra year to upgrade. Besides, we can get alternatives to Apple Intelligence if we have an iPhone that doesn't support the Apple AI. With iOS 18, I've set a new control in Control Center to open up Google Lens, an alternative to the new Visual Intelligence. For the Writing Tools, I use the Microsoft Copilot keyboard to help revise my writing. Because there are only so much Apple Intelligence can offer in the next few months, it's better for your wallet if you use the alternatives to Apple Intelligence. Renovate your current iPhone that is working pretty well to have these great Apple Intelligence alternatives and save your money, because the iPhone 16 is the same as previous generations if we ignore the whole Apple Intelligence thing.

Is it not weird that they try to sell products that they can't sell? I live in the Netherlands (EU). When I was curious about the iPhone the Dutch website pointed me to this launch event for the new products. I see this feature that Apple in the Netherlands is selling me, but wait, we will never get that feature. Is that not weird? It certainly is misleading. Sure, they don't even mention this feature on the Dutch website but they did point to the American introduction video on the Dutch website. I think a lot of EU citizens don't know that they don't get this feature. The product was presented with this feature on the Dutch website.

We know it’s gonna be for the newest iPhone. The new iPhone will release… and it still won’t have AI. And even when it does… it won’t be all the features. It just reminds me of something other tech companies would do. Or like when video game developers release a game and promise to deliver later on things they promised in the previews.

[@timweb1510]

Apple is overpriced junk, you should ask Foxconn how to do it

[@12q8]

I mean, think of it this way, tasks like real-time voice recognition or custom image generation involve much more data and complexity than simple Siri requests, leading to higher load per user. They need to thoroughly stress-test their servers before rolling it out and expanding gradually. Especially since millions will buy these devices, and a sudden jump in users hitting the server could take it offline, which would cause more worry investors about their quality and competency. They are taking a "better safe than sorry" approach.

[@alexh2665]

@@12q8 we don’t know that though, for all we know, they might not even have a minimum viable product for half of these features, and there’s already existing API’s and frameworks for a lot of the features you mentioned. It’s just hard to imagine this delay is purely because of a scaling issue.

[@cosybookswithdogs]

I have the iPhone 14 and normally replace my iPhone every 2 years but Im skipping doing it this year as I was underwhelmed, and frankly disappointed; I felt I was watching the rollout of an iPhone that they should have delayed until all the software was ready. Let's see what happens next year! ☹

[@MoviesWithMia]

I think you made the right decision as upgrading from a 14 to the 16 wouldn’t be a major change… I think a good rule of thumb would be to exchange your phone every 3-4 years instead of 2… I used to switch out to a new phone every two years, but I have found that waiting a couple years more makes for a much more efficient upgrade! With that being said.. I am switching to the 16 pro max from the 13 pro max, because I think it’s time for a change 😁

[@blazedrinkwine2171]

Just preordered two new iPhones 16 pros (upgrading from an 11pro and 13pro) and also getting a silver & jet black series 10 watch cause of tmobile promos: overall I think tech reviewers often forget people arent upgrading year in and year out and typically hold onto their phones for a few generations since apple has been pretty consistent with software upgrades. So while everyone saying not to buy an iphone with the promise of a software upgrade they fail to recognize the track record of apple. I could have upgraded last year from the 13 pro but it just made no sense but going from a 13pro to 16pro is a significant upgrade people are failing to recognize.

[@MoviesWithMia]

Thank you for saying this because I am so tired of videos saying BEFORE YOU BUY THIS… it’s a broken record every year… I am coming from a 13 pro too and I simply just want an upgraded version… I don’t care about the “fun” features that are promised like Apple Intelligence and the capture button… I just want a new phone that is the latest model and I think that perspective goes unnoticed

[@blazedrinkwine2171]

@@MoviesWithMia YUP. Tech reviewers are in their own echo chambers. They fail to realize that it gives them a bad look by it essentially being their opinion instead of just keeping it about the specs and such.

[@VersatilePhoenix]

So long as apple delivers on their “Apple Intelligence” they can’t be sued. They have two performance obligations here, the hardware and the software, given their marketing of AI features being key to the phone. So long as they don’t overstate their income and allocate revenue to the release of key software that is promised, they are not breaking law. If they led everyone to believe these features are available upon release, then people could sue.

This is not a decent upgrade comparing the previous gen launches, because there's no significant upgrade in hardware level. Just polished. Maybe worthy for people using older iPhones since they didn't increase the price. The technology reached the saturation point for now.

[@MrBitterman75]

Sorry, but this is not a research, it's just apple's marketing blurb. 48 MP Fusion Camera - it is actually not a new sensor, yes they call it gen.2, but this sensor is the same hardware-wise. All those 48 MP sensors are highly misleading - even in RAW (btw Apple RAW is still processed albeit not heavily) you're getting 48 MP large files with 4-12 MP equivalent in detail, depending on zoom setting you're using. Funny thing is the old 3x tele is much better in quality than 5x tele at 3x zoom etc. leading to unnecessarily large files without much detail compared to any 12 MP mirrorless camera. Those "studio mics" - I happen to work in audio field professionally - yes, they will be better, but calling them Studio Mics is simply laughable.And I could go on. Now you know how the proper research is done. Don't get me wrong, I love my iPhone, love its camera system, computational photography in current phones is truly amazing, but it is a healthy approach to stay realistic and not just copy/paste marketing blurbs.
