I’m almost certainly going to get an iPhone 16 pro - I have a 12 mini (and have been running the betas since they came out), and it is kind of dying, and I have to charge it from around 4pm because the battery lasts so little, and I feel it’s time for an upgrade. I am going to get the pro because I want the more battery capacity, and I also do a lot of filming and photography, so the triple camera layout is very important to me. I also want more power because I do a lot of gaming and also some mobile VFX (for creating simple particle effects and stuff for projects).

coming from an 11 Pro Max. This video just pushed me in the right directions, I think it'll be a 16-plus. As you said, all the love the base models got, are leaps and bounds ahead of anything before the 15, Cameras are still beefy enough to take way better photos, and ID gather you now only really need the pro versions IF you want a larger phone and a super camera in your pocket, which lets be honest, if you are going to be shooting pro, you likely are using an actual camera not your phone. Touching on the Screen refresh, i see 120 vs 60debate... 60 would give slightly better battery performance, and since from an 11 pro max standpoint i don't have 120HZ... I'm not missing it. Good overview on this. they really did the Plus model well this year. This feels like an s type upgrade.
@eugene16406 күн бұрын
Apple lowered peak refresh rate to 80 fps in UI (games and videos are exceptions). Everyone with a high-speed camera can prove it. Another example is the keyboard app - it renders only 60 fps. I asked some software engineers, and they confirmed that in regular apps, rendering will be limited by 80-90 fps. Safari can render 120 frames, but in its advanced settings, there’s a 60 Hz switch, which is enabled by default - scrolling in Safari will be 120 fps, but web content updates at 60 fps by default. I have 15 pro and I don’t like it because of the jittery scrolling. I was surprised to find that not everyone can see this jitter.

@@TranceFluenceRadio before you make a decision, remember that the iPhone 16 plus is not the best in battery life. The iPhone 16 Pro Max is. Last year, Apple accidentally gave the 15 Plus the biggest battery life. They fixed it this year by cutting down the battery on the plus. Which makes the iPhone 16 plus the most useless in my opinion unless you specifically want a large phone AND can't get the pro max for any reason. Edit: (replying to your other reply) No, that does not mean that. what it means is that the pro models are not always running at 120hz and can save the battery by reducing the refresh rate when you don't need it.

Especially given that gaining access to more photos and data will help advance that feature faster Makes me think it’ll be available to all phones/devices that have Apple Intelligencd but the Camera Control on iPhone 16 will make it easier and faster to use

If I do buy an iPhone 16, it will probably be the regular iPhone 16 because I don't need the Pro Features, but it would be nice to have Apple Intelligence. Also, I prefer the regular 16 over the 16 Plus because the 6.1 inch size fits my hands perfectly.

Pre ordered a 16 Pro max and I’m super excited! AT&T has some really good trade in deals and my beloved 12 Pro max has been overheating and has awful screen brightness in any sliver of daylight. I personally want the biggest phone possible so the pro max is great! I’m really excited for 48MP camera coming from my 12 MP. The 120 Mz will be a nice change! Super excited.

I’m not the type who cares about having the most recent model. But I know carriers typically offer an add-on plan where you can upgrade to the most current smartphone models. ATT lets you do it 3 times in a year. I just skip 2 models then upgrade on the 3rd release so I don’t even need that plan. Just thought I’d mention it for those who do like having the latest phones.

idk about battery. Apple claims that the 15 pro's 29 hour video playback battery is bigger than the 15 plus's 27 hour battery, but the 15 plus is considerably better, and even the 13 pro max has better battery than 15 PM. Only testing will show if the 16 plus is better or worse than the 16 pro max.

All of you people commenting “not worth upgrading etc” yes all good! But if you have 13 or above you have no reason to upgrade. 12 and down is the logical upgrade where you actually get a big bump.

I have the 15 pro max and couldn’t be happier with it, got it right after launch and don’t really feel the need to upgrade again. That said, I’d be lying if I said the 16 pro max didn’t have my attention, especially being bigger and having a bigger battery.
@blakewright575Күн бұрын
Great video! I seem to remember that they claimed the 15 pro max had better battery than the 15 plus… it was only in testing that we learned the plus was better. I believe that they did shrink the battery in the plus though, perhaps for that reason…

I have a feeling Apple is going to create more separation with the Camera control features in future software updates for the 16 Pro/Pro Max so the 16/16 Plus will be missing some.
