As someone who uses both Android and iOS it always makes me laugh when people make a big drama about switching between both these systems, just use whatever one you like. As for me I will get an iPhone 16 but when I get bored of that I will probably get whatever Android phone that catches my attention.

Im upgrading from my trusty iPhone 12 and have one of these on order. I’m trawling reviews to justify the huge chunk of change and reassure myself of the huge leap in performance I’ll be gaining. I have to say I’m underwhelmed on the whole and it’s almost like I don’t want to admit it because it’s the latest model so it must be the best. I think I’m finally growing up. I think I’ll gets the iPhone 12 battery replaced and use the rest of the money to go and visit my brother in Aus at Christmas. The combination of this guy splurging on four phones in a year and the features I know I’ll never use in this new iPhone has caused an epiphany. Thanks.

Fair conclusion and wise use of money. Only think to be aware of is you are getting multiple years of upgrades, which 16 reviews only won’t mention. So battery life improvements year on year, speed improvements, screen improvements, camera etc. so 15 to 16 is yes underwhelming but all together it’s a solid update from 12 to 16

I’ve upgraded to the 16 Pro Max from a 12 Pro Max, which I recently had the battery replaced on by an apple authorised partner. In all honesty, the appreciable differences so far are fairly negligible. Battery life will take some time to settle down, so I can’t say that it’s lasting noticeably longer - in fact, if anything it seems to be draining faster than my 12PM, but this is expected in the first week of use. Overall, I’m happy with the upgrade, but if it was a choice between keeping it or returning it, replacing the battery in my 12PM and using the balance of the cash to fund a family experience, I’d be personally be choosing the latter. Not to visit my brother though. He’s a proper knob head.

My wife and my iPhone 16 Pro Max’s came in today as well. I do use the public betas, so I’m on 18.1 with some of the Apple Intelligence features. I haven really had the chance to do much yet, but I really, as a photographer, like the new camera control “button”. Yes, it does take a bit of getting used to as anything complex does. But it works pretty well. It’s sort of a button, but not in the way people think of a button. It’s a capacitive button, not a mechanical one. But it does move slightly with a Taptic effect. My phone is black this year, and the woven cable is white. We have the 15 Pro Max and yes, it’s worth it to upgrade, if you have the use case. The 48MP ultra wide alone is worth it for me. But there are a number of other improvements. The new camera button is a game changer if you take a lot of photos and videos. The 120fps on 4k is a great feature for slo-mo. The increased capability for A.I. is significant. Graphics improvement is significant. If you’re a gamer, the ray tracing is twice as fast. There are other improvements such as larger batteries. How much is worth it? It depends on what you think is important. As far as the mics go. You have to set them up properly for the use. It’s something you really have to learn about to use it properly. I can tell that you don’t have the mics set up for your use. So, the 18.1 update for customers should drop in October and 18.2 should drop in late November, early December. Between the two, a fair amount of Apple’s A.I. will be there. By the way, Google’s Gemini still uses Google Assistant for almost everything, it’s not really Gemini that’s doing the work right now. You can tell as when you call it up, a window opens that says Google Assistant. So don’t be fooled.

You are one of the few “normal one” on KZbin who shares his impressions and thoughts as they are. Thank you for not explaining every single button of the phone during the first five minutes. I struggled with the camera control same as you and I even checked the internet for its function. It’s just like the AirPod pro 2 volume control when I used it for the first time. It will become just normal soon. BTW I deleted the first photos of my camera control check already 😊

I decided to go for the iPhone 16 Pro. Coming from an iPhone 12, this is a complete upgrade from what I currently have. I like that it's got a faster CPU and a faster refresh rate. I also like the 48 MP cameras compared to the 12 MP cameras that the iPhone 12 has. I also like the idea that you can record video in 4K. With all that said, I'm having a hard time deciding if I wanted the iPhone 16 Pro or Pro Max. I have the iPhone 16 Pro on presale and I'm picking it up tomorrow. I'm thinking I may exchange it if I like the Pro Max better.

I went from 14 Pro to 16 Pro Max mainly because I wanted a bigger screen. My only complaint is that the stickers are broken in iOS 18. Everything else has been great. I actually really like the camera button. Pressing it pops open the camera app no matter what and the zoom is quite nice. The learning curve isn’t bad at all like I’ve heard from reviewers. If you already have a 14 Pro Max, however…I would say skip the 16 Pro Max and just get a battery replacement. And don’t upgrade to iOS 18 until they fix the bugs.

Problem with the 16 Pro & Max is the loss of the 3x lens, so you’re left with cropping (and the resultant image quality loss) between 24mm and 120mm ! That’s a big compromise to make. You’ve really got to be committed to the 120mm focal length. For most people, 15 Pro (not Max) would be the better choice.

Your studio mics are very clear (as though the pick up mic is under your chin) and quite bassy, switch to the iPhone mics and it's noticeably worse, thinner sounding (it's as though the pic up mic is on the other side of the room) with a bit of echo/ reverb, it's as though the room was initially treated and then you've taken the room treatment away. You do eventually get used to the inferior sound and I suppose it sounds OK. Maybe there are settings within the mic app to improve the sound.

My first iPhone was an XR, then I went to a Samsung S20FE and I loved that phone for four years. But when upgrading to the S24 Ultra… although I love the industrial design, and the pen for morning to do notes, I find myself not using any of the Pro features, don’t use any of the AI features, haven’t bothered customising it, don’t do any specialty photography… I’m thinking of trading it in for just the iPhone 16 Plus. Maybe. I played with one today, and I found it a great improvement over last years iPhone which I found Meh, including the Pro - they hadn’t woo’d me back yet... But this year may be the year😂 Although, look forward to your review on the Pro😊

I got the 15 pro last year. Just ordered the 16 pro max. I want a bigger screen and battery life plus 6.1 to 6.9 is a huge jump so it might actually feel like a big upgrade lol

Two half presses will bring up the camera control…controls. haha. And the “studio quality mics@ are an after the shot edit done on the phone. Your video here just has the mics without changing the settings to get the “studio” quality. Good vid!

Watching on 16 Pro Max, already thinking I should have got the smaller 16 Pro. It's just a bit too big and I could only realise this through several hours of use. Sigh...

@MarkEllisReviews you mentioned your Ours ring scratching everything. Do you find having it on your index finger a regular issue? I’ve got one but on the ring finger, however the readings can be a bit…off. I was thinking next time, I’ll go index finger but not if it interferes the handling of things like my Pro Max phone!

It is a tiny bit wider and a bit taller. Since this video, does it feel (the weight) the same as the 15 pro max??

@@MarkEllisReviews I get it. We shouldn’t expect perfection from anyone. I just think failing to mention something that is a very significant difference between the Pro and non Pro, is a huge miss. I’d go as far as stating that if the non Pro models were 120hz, they would easily be the ones to buy for probably 8/10 people.
