I like how you said, “the Capture Button feels like a gimmick and I went back to using the touchscreen”. Apple and *some* reviewers have been overhyping his new button like it’s the next best thing since sliced bread. But this button was not necessary and I wonder if Apple will ever remove the additional buttons. Good review as always.

[@toomass2668]

I agree with everything you say in the video. I would just add that the biggest issue with most reviews (yours excluded) is that they keep comparing the phone only to last year model. And while it is legit argument I feel like every manufacturer has the same issue. They keep releasing the "S" versions of the last year model rather than "new" model. And that goes to Samsung as well as Pixel etc. So I think this Iphone 16 pro is for someone with older iphone like 12 or even 11 and not for someone with 15. I think Apple should have marketed it in this way and there would have been no issues. But overall nice review and cannot wait for my preordered iphone 16 pro max (coming from iphone 12 pro max) I am most looking forward to 120hz display and better battery life as my 12 pro max battery is very bad. I am also someone who changed their phone every 4 years so it is about time anyways :P

[@coziworth]

Honestly it may be expensive now but I say you should go for 16 pro . It's guaranteed longevity with 120hz and if you're into video taking and editing it's stupid how good it is ..... If you don't care that much about video taking or refresh rate the regular 16 may be better it has almost every feature of the pro except for some camera stuff and data transfer speed

Great cinematography as usual, I really love the places you’ve picked to test out the photo shots! 📷 Looks like iPhone 16 is quite an upgrade from the previous models mainly for its camera, but I agree that outside of that Apple really needs to catch up on the AI department as compared to their competitors! Hopefully there will be some major upgrades in this area later in the year, keen to see this as a long-time iPhone user!

Good summary. I'm using 12Pro Max and wants to upgrade this year. I have tested the new camera button at Apple store last week, honestly, it's underwhelming.

[@billiamnotbob]

I got tired of the size/weight of my 14 Pro Max. I decided to get the 16 Pro, it should be here early in the week. Black Titanium 256g. I thought the 11 Pro Max at 6.5" was the perfect size, but the 6.3 will be fine. I likely won't use the AI much but the better zoom will be nice. Battery also shouldn't be an issue as I don't usually go beyond an hour to an hour and a half screen time in a day. I enjoyed the video. Thanks!

[@jimmyclements6226]

Just upgraded to this from my iPhone 13 standard. Excited to get USB charging, Pro-Motion, and the better cameras.

[@KevinFuggi]

I would easily take an OS overhaul vs a newer chip at this point. The 15 Pro is already a beast, I’d rather have things like split screen apps, reverse wireless charging, etc. I also would prefer to keep the 3x on the Pro vs the 5x, or give it both like Samsung. Glad they upgraded the UW lens though.

[@normandyeuropa]

I guess to counter with you a little, I've found the camera control button pretty useful. I've used it multiple times to easily take photos and videos without needing to look around the screen to turn the camera on. It gives that professional camera feeling of being able to immediately turn the camera on with a flick of a switch. And with actual use, I agree with you that the on-screen capture and focal length buttons more efficient to use, but when I adjusted the sensitivity to lighten and changed the default control to exposure instead, it really became a welcome addition for me. I've always found it cumbersome to touch focus and then slide up or down to adjust exposure. For the action button, you really do have to find a good shortcut to maximize it. I found a youtuber who made one that does different shortcuts depending on the orientation of the phone when you press it. But yeah they took too much time talking about those buttons tho :| For the design, I don't really mind them not changing the design drastically as it keeps the older gen iphones still looking good. My dad's still proudly rocking the X with little to no issues aside from battery life.

[@schrodinger2986]

I just got mine and I've been accidentally bringing up the camera app constantly, it's frustrating and maybe it's my big hands. The switch to exposure control makes a lot of sense thanks for the suggestion.

I have the 16 pro but it's still sitting in the box. I've been trying to see if anybody does a thermal comparison between the two under a heavy load.

[@joesamuelkorati3997]

@@GU_WOP_O If overheating is an issue in regular 16 pro, switching to 16 pro max is a good idea because the 16 pro max has a larger footprint. As a result, there is a larger area for the heat to dissipate for the same chipset, and I suspect overheating also affects the battery life in the long run, adding to the already smaller battery in comparison
