I’m super excited for the IPhone 16 pro max! I currently have a 12 Pro max since 2021 and I originally going to wait a couple more years. A few months ago my 12 started really having overheating issues. If I’m outside for any more than 6 seconds my screen dims. The battery is beginning to get pretty low, I’m at 87% and I still use a battery case to charge my battery at least once a day, then again at night. Between the bigger screen, better battery, 120HZ, Dynamic Island, always on display, action button and the new camera control button I think it’s a pretty decent upgrade for us people with 12’s. My 12 has been great honestly! Gonna miss it!

I’ve pre ordered the 16 Pro Max for arrival next Friday. Moving up from 12 Pro max. Will be happy to have my last Apple device move to USB C and finally ditch the lightning connectors. Since you’ve asked what we want to see in full reviews --- things like a review of the camera bump from 12 to 16 is significant. Or the changes to Siri with AI vs old Siri. It might not be a big deal going from 15 to 16 because you get to upgrade every year, going from 12 to 16 is a big deal. So showing us a comparisons of what it’s like going from pro max 12 to pro max 16 (which is apparently one of the largest group of people upgrading this year) would be a meaningful information and super helpful rather than ‘you aren’t getting much from 15 to 16’ because that isn’t statistically your target audience. 😊

This is the main reason as to why I am switching back to samsung permanently. As a consumer, I feel as though I am just a wallet to them. Google, Samsung, Motorola, etc. push for innovation and new concepts year after year. For example: the Flip series for both Samsung and Motorola are extremely impressive. While they have issues with trying to make the folding screen less fragile, it is extremely impressive that they are willing to try something new to give their consumers what they've been asking for. Yet, Apple consistently puts out identical iterations of their phones alongside features literally nobody has asked for or care for. I cannot think of a single person or influencer who has asked for a camera specific slide bar or apple AI, yet we have all been begging for cooler colors in the Pro Max, a flip version, and customization. Even though allegedly they are coming out with customization with the new update, it does not seem to be to the degree that andriod products have. Not to mention their shady business practices when paying off third party companies to only optimize their apps to iPhone.

Right, I can agree that it feels like we’re reaching a peak, but that won’t happen. If Moore’s law is true (so far it is), the chips will always be getting faster and smaller.

Also marques, need to upgrade because of usb -c. A small ligthning to usb-c dongle costs like 4 dollars..

[@AdrianNiveau]

well apple products are great. there would be no need for a better phone or Laptop for me. Im disappointed though

[@justhumanrampai4882]

Are we still gonna buy - yes.

[@mythicalmyriad]

@@AdrianNiveau wrong, android phones exist, with much lower prices.

I love that they're making it normal to sell you partially finished hardware with a promise of updated brand new features in the near future

[@honewhetstone1732]

Why is the hardware partially finished? It’s just the software that’s released in increments.

[@marquisethomas5611]

@@honewhetstone1732 My bad i guess i typed that wrong. I should've said "finished product". The hardware itself is finished, youll be buying updated hardware but all the new features that they're trying to sell you aren't on the phone yet. When the finished software is ready they send a over the air update & then you'll have the latest features.

[@Sc5ch]

That's like complaining about phone releases and software updates being separate, which has been a thing for like a decade. Shut up my guy. Go complain about Samsung's AI being a free trial that transitions into a paid subscription. A month of delay is way better than that imo.

watching this with an iPhone 11 in my hands, if people only see the back of my phone they'll think I have the 16 😜😜😜

[@ExperimentswithAyaan]

Bruv I have the 11 pro so I can’t do that 😭

[@MyUsualComment]

I have an iPhone XS. Same situation 😅

[@Fatty_WB]

No they are very clearly differant

[@2010SmartFortwo]

People who know, will know you have an 11, people who don’t know won’t care what phone you have! It’s like people up-badgeing their cars

[@JShawnOConnor]

I got the iPhone 13 Pro. I’ll wait for the iPhone 23 Pro

It doesn't feel like an Apple Event until the MKBHD video launches!

[@n64slayer]

To the argument "the pro has a 120hz screen" you have to pay more for that, and literally every other phone company's base model comes with 120hz 💀

[@realgoose]

@MKBHD Two observations from the event. The Ultra used to be about the extremes - deep sea, mountain climbing, trekking in Antarctica. Now those extremes have morphed into snorkeling, going for a day hike, and playing in the snow. Also, the trend remains… If Apple is proud of the update, meaning it’s meaningful, they have a member of their engineering team present. If the update is meh, they send out a member from marketing. Watch the event and see this in action.

[@ali-volcano]

@@realgoose what update dude, the whole show was a joke....

[@Cujobob]

What you’ve just said is that you look for tech instead of total product. Tech is better explained by an expert in that area, a complete product by marketing.

[@bl_sonic3288]

Apple is switching from hardware-innovation to software-innovation, which is propelled moreso by AI. You can only innovate hardware so much.

[@ali-volcano]

@@bl_sonic3288 what innovation? They lack basic features, like fingerprint unlock ...

Heuristic: the less indians you see doing presentations for apple, the less impressive the upgrade
