My wife and I both got the 16 Pro Max. My phone is fine but she’s been experiencing issues with the screen being unresponsive while trying to use apps as well as the keyboard. We took it to Apple yesterday and they recommended that we did the steps that you mentioned but is a headache. We were told that we could not get a replacement because it was not hardware related but due to the OS (which is the latest one). It’s definitely frustrating because we use our phones for business and I feel like Apple isn’t taking the issues seriously.
I have same problem with screen becoming unresponsive. After several hours on phone with Apple & reseting phone I realized it was a software issue with iOS. When I enlarged text in settings screen would randomly freeze. If I turned enlarged text off everything works great.
Since the day I got my phone, I've been experiencing touch sensitivity issues. The screen feels very unresponsive. My wife's phone is the 15 Pro Max, while mine is the 16 Pro Max. Whenever I use her phone and then switch back to mine, the difference in touch sensitivity is like night and day. Apple connected to my phone remotely and found no issues. I also visited the Apple Store, and despite telling them I had already reset my phone twice, they reset it themselves again. Nothing changed. In the end, they reluctantly admitted that it might be a software-related problem. It's truly frustrating, and I really hope they fix this issue with the iOS 18.2 update as soon as possible.
Just upgraded from iPhone 12 mini after 4 years. Barely used my new iPhone 16 pro max for 10 days and it became unresponsive. Running the latest software so can’t be software issue.

Mine the same 😡I moved from an 6 years old budget galaxy 71 and somehow I have worse experience using this iPhone 16 pro max trash it’s a buggy mess as well not just the touch screen but loads of annoying most of the time insignificant bugs and some are significant bugs like the touch screen being unresponsive etc….
Have the same issues too. My device was acting really weird. Flashlight oftentimes doesn’t work, screen freezes and flickers too. Also, the phone gets really hot during charging. I have brought the phone to the service center for diagnosis.
I’m waiting for all my Apple devices to die and I’m gonna move to the S 25 ultra. I’m so sick of Apple they’re the Scientology of technology they just take advantage of us charge us more on our losing all of their trust with the tech community.
I LOVE my S24 Ultra, absolutely gorgeous screen. It’s my own personal opinion, but I also think the S24 Ultra takes better videos and pictures. Excited to see what the S25 U is going to have.
Blue line/ blue dot issue on long exposure shots. Nobody aside from Shayne Mostyn is talking about this problem. It renders the iPhone 16 pro useless for long exposure night photography.
Have the iPhone 16 Pro Max, had the iPhone 12 Pro Max, no problems with either phone. Tested for the blue bars in night vision that Shayne Mostyn has been carrying on about, perfect test result, pitch black with NO artifacts whatsoever. Couldn't be happier with my iPhone 16 Pro Max. I shot a pine tree at 25X today and was amazed at the clarity and detail. I was expecting crap because of this being software zoom, but man was I wrong. I wish I could post the picture here for you to see, along with the details so you could see I'm telling the truth. Is the picture as sharp and clear as optical zoom? No, of course not, but it's excellent for 25X software zoom, way better than anything I got with the 12 Pro Max at max zoom.
Thank you, i've had mine for 2 weeks now and never had any issues that all these UA-camrs complain about. I got mine from the US shipped here in Africa. Works like a machine, camera control feature is still laggy but works perfectly fine most times and beleieve with updates it would improve. The camera is so much better than my friend's iphone 14,15 Pros. I dont know why people been making videos making it look like its the worst to ever come out of Apple. Most people who complain run on BETA and expect the phone to be perfect
Same was with me with my 16 PRO MAX - but different problem - I had problems with the touch display - returned the phone - second phone unpacked and was already scratched - so returned again! And now the 3rd one is working. Sad that it needs 3 phones to get the quality you pay for.
@ it was simply packed with a scratch - quality control did fail - I opened it in the store and showed it to an employee- she was also very confused that this can happen …
My screen is stuttering and lagging while scrolling in different apps and also in some iOS Menues, when the scrolling motion is getting slower. That is really annoying for such a expensive phone... Has anyone else has this problem?
Just got 16 pro max . it’s going back to the store tomorrow standby mode not working correctly, phone overheating, and screen not responding properly 😮😮😮
I was shooting some spatial video to watch with my Apple Vision Pro glasses and when I got home to watch, 30 seconds of a 10 min video only I couldn’t understand why this happened until I saw your video so now I’m keeping a close watch on what I do on my apple pro max
The issue i faced at my new iPhone 16 pro max as normal user ( using it for browsing , calls , messaging and less use of camera and video recording ) is the sudden restart and turn off by itself even after updating to 18.1.1 the issue is still there
Im having the same issues. Bought this phone last Oct.21st , first issue it lags all the time using Messenger. Can’t play online games without lagging, its not as smooth as my iPhone 14 Pro Max. Been using Iphone since 2015 and never had these problems. Then video starts to stops when recording. Video stops even less than a minute of recording. Purchasing this Phone is my biggest mistake.
Mine keeps glitching, although not often, it can be like half the picture that flashes light blue/white when I turn it on and sometimes in startup of apps. Since it’s just sometimes, I got a nightmare to explain for help and service.
1. apple assumes a buyer of 16 pro max knows enough about changing settings from 1080p to 4k 2. when videos are so big in size, to assume it is convenient and feel apple should default to 4k and expecting the same is not a justifiable assertion at all
My 16 pro max doesn’t have that blue banding issue at 30 second exposure. No issues with video yet. But I understand your pain i got the very original DJI mavic drone I kept having gimbal issues, had like 3-4 replacement drones I thought I was going crazy
I am interested to know what internal storage size you had? I have no experience with a 16 pro max yet but i have shot content on quite a number of 15 pro max, none have been my phone they have been crew members phones or bought by production for the shoot. What i have consistently found is the 1tb phones have the fewest issues and the smaller the internal storage the more issues they appear to have. This hold true even when shooting to external drives presumably because they are still using internal caching. It's enough of a patten that i wouldn't consider getting anything other than the 1tb. I have had a 15 pro max completely shut off on me and i believe that was 256gb.
Great video, I would like to share my experience as well. I have an IPhone 15, bought it 5 months ago. I’ve got a ton of software bugs, for example as I’m typing something, the cursor doesn’t show any words I’m typing for a few seconds. Secondly, I play very less CPU intensive games and the frames sometimes get stuck. Finally when shooting timelapses, my iPhone 15 recording screen became extremely laggy and I wasn’t even sure if it was recording the footage properly. I was using an iPhone 11, which was replaced by apple for going into restart loops. But the replaced device was so perfect I wish I can get back my iPhone 11! Paying so much for a phone and it seeing it can’t do the normal things is beyond me. I’ve decided my next phone isn’t going to be apple!
I’ve watched both of your videos about this. I appreciate it. I was thinking about it no one but I think you can get them anymore. I think they’re sold out so I’m gonna pass up. I have a 14 that works fine and I’m still trying to learn it.
My iPhone 16 Pro are flawless, I shot my team football match since I got it on the 20th September, love the slow mo didn’t have to edit just straight from the phone, running firmware 18.2 Beta 3 ,I slap a MagSafe charger while shooting
That's unfortunate mate , I'm wondering if wherever you are getting your phones from , if they are all from a bad batch from the supplier ? Clearly not everyone is having these problems. But having had three duds no one would blame you for not wanting another . You are more patient than I am , once the second unit was faulty that would have been enough for me. I think there is something to be said for not buying the latest and greatest every year. I have had iPhone 12 pro max Australian delivered and 14 pro max , and I have had a good experience with both touch wood 😊. All the best with whatever you buy next.
I'm on my 3rd RMA. The first iPhone 16 PM had a display issue where there was a faint bright line in the middle of the screen. The second one had an issue with the built-in 1x lens and the paint chipped off the inner side of the 0.5x lens. I discovered that this third one also has the display issue that the first one had but I'm gonna keep this one. I'm tired of Apple's lottery. I've been using iPhones since the 3Gs and I only had that many RMA with the iPhone X. I did not have a single issue with the 15 PM, the 14 Pro, the 13 Pro, 12 Pro, Don't know what's going on with their QC but I hope that with the iPhone 17 they gonna nail it because I worked pretty hard for that money I spent on the 16 PM..
I Come to this video because I bought an iPhone 16 Pro Max and it constantly crashes Apps like Spotify of WhatsApp.i also experience Problems With Bluetooth where the Phone loses connection to my headphones.... I bought this Phone mainly for doing Videos but I havent try it. I will try out What you were telling in the video
There is another UA-camr Shayne Moysten who has a channel for astro photography. He identified a problem with 30 second timed release shutter photos. The camera has giant blue streaks in it. My 16 pro max had the same problem, I had to return the phone twice. The phone I have now produces small blue dots in 30 second timed release mode, but not the giant blue streaks.
I’m on my second iPhone 16 pro max, within 24 hours! First one got red hot and locked up trying to set up, exchanged for a new one! All hopefully ok now!
My mom and I are both having issues with her iPhone 16 and and my iPhone 16PM. We both do not hear notifications for texts when our phones are on standby and locked. I looked up how to fix it and no solutions have worked. We went to AT&T and the guy just said it’s an IOS issue but didn’t really investigate with our phones. These are our first iPhones and we’re also having touch displays issues. Touch doesn’t respond with lag. We’re a bit disappointed as we finally switched from Samsung to Apple for the first time this September. Should we go to Apple?
Yes i am facing this problem and touch screen issue and display glitch like green colour lines same time in setting and app library my same photos and videos are totally Balck now it not visible wan you zoom same time you see
I am with you mate ! Very similar issues. Totally frustrating! I went through 3 iPhone 16 pro . Just received the new one and hope this works ! Will update if it doesn’t. Very cumbersome and inconvenient!
Most problems are having to use multiple APPS to get a video done.Not the phones issues your dealing with. The only option is to use multiple phones for recording because they know their is a problem but effects only 2 % and realy won't be fixed. Simply not cost effective for so few users Unless you're a Professional .Have redundancy to offset any issues especially hardware .
I got my IPhone 16 plus last night. When the employee took it out he had to keep tapping it over 3-4 times before it responded. I got home and it will take 5,6,7 times to respond and sometimes it will not work at all . I’m going to return it either tomorrow or Sat.. Frustrating because it’s a nice looking phone, perfect size. I might just go for the 15plus
I had an issue with my iphone 16 pro max where my headphones keeps disconnecting from Bluetooth every now and then did anyone else experienced this issue?
I was going to go today and buy an iPhone pro max. Thank you. I’m a UA-camr and I want a phone that will work for making videos. Looking to upgrade from the iPhone 12. Do you have any recommendations?
This isn't the only camera issue the new iPhone 16 models are having. Most iPhone 16 models are also suffering from blue light streaks on night time, time lapse pictures. The iPhone 16 is plagued with issues.
Got the iphone 15 pro couple of weeks back... It heats so much and sometimes I had to charge it thrice a day coz the battery was so bad... Here in India you have no option of returns or replacements for such issues... So I am selling it and I got a pixel 9 pro xl just yesterday... Even on day one with all the heavy downloads and all of that, no heating at all... Battery seems great even on day 1... It should only improve from here... iPhone's are surely degrading in quality since the 13 pro...
The fact you personally have gone through so many phones with the same issues, is just crazy. Especially from apple. Who've built their entire brand on the 'they just work' slogan'.
I bought a ip16pro max 1Tb on 11/11/24 and have not done much yet, I had a i11 pro max (448/512)gb and cuoldn’t understand the difficulty a simple backup old (516/512gb.) /download (63/1020gb) to /from iCloud. Wifi to wifi failed & was told to upgrade iCloud to 2Tb. With no end insight. I am still backing up my ip11 (62% complete on 20/11/24), I’m determined to reach completion after such a prolonged process! ( some of you may have noticed iCloud storage has exceeded what’s in ip11; very strange)
Weird. I went from the 11 pro max to the 14 pro max and now to the 16 pro max. So far no issues. Or bugs. And I’m a photographer who heavily uses the cameras. 🤷♂️
I gave up using the iPhone since iPhone 12, I had the iPhone 12 and it started to get really warm and I had to charge it three times a day, I didn't know if it was been hacked and apple was no help with the problem, if you want a very good phone buy the Google pixel 9 pro, it is by far the best cell phone I ever owned, For videos it has twenty times zoom feature that is really amazing
WTF ??? not sayin that i don't believe you man this is a huge problem though was thinking of getting the 16PM next month and thanks to you i think i wount, as the reason that im buyin it is cause it's superior video i never had this issue on my 15PM or lower than that
I don't know but I just opened my iPhone 16PM yesterday, as I am trying to take normal pic then suddenly it shuts off for a minute then comes back to life... I thought the battery was drained after transferring all my stuff from android to ios, but it wasn't. Though it's too expensive here in the UK + VAT (£1599), I took the shot to try apple this time because of its durability from previous launched devices. i'll see how long it will last. Additionally, it says made from titanium+extra, but it feels like plastic to me when I hold it 😅
Exactly! The Apple from yrs ago is not the Apple today! They push Apple Intelligence to get us to buy a new 15pro/16 and it’s not even out yet. It’s like they just said it’s coming to say it so they won’t fall further behind… sorta sad. With that said still rocking 12 pm Apple Watch 4 lol. I’m thinking of getting the 10.? I want the black I’ve always had dark apple products but I’m scared to gonna get scratched to shit so I’m probably gonna be forced to get the silver or space gray or whatever it is. Apple definitely needs to start up in their game like years ago, are they lost a customer. The Apple android difference from years back is almost no longer special with the RCS. It’s pretty much whatever you prefer. The big thing I think with people is the whole ecosystem. I definitely don’t wanna change everything but force to I would. I also been an Apple consumer since the 4S along with all the iPods and iPads and max I bought for my family over the years. The money!!! Then you have to go out and buy three separate phones at work?? What happened to the Apple tax? It’s almost not worth it anymore. Their motto before was it just works….DOES IT!?
You are the nightmare customer for retail. Constantly coming in to complain/ swap out a phone because of a rare "defect" that 99.9% of the population does not experience.
These are my issues RCS comes and go News app keeps changing language from English to French and French to English Black dots Emojies Txt Apple and the AI told me that I needed to wait for iOS 18.2 to resolve these issues Oh yes if you chose to chat w Apple, you will be chatting with a machine 😵💫
I know this might not apply to you, but another pretty apparent issue for anyone who shoots night photography, is a bunch of the Pro's have an issue with blue lines through the image. Something that doesn't happen on the 15 Pro Max, nor does it happen on all of the 16 Pros. It's gotten to a point where Apple now have an internal memo that dictates to staff, not to replace the phone for this issue as they don't see it as a fault. Despite it only happening with select devices. Wild. F u 🍎
the 15 Pro Max is the best iphone out right now apple rushed the 16 pro max over hyped it with features that wasn't even out and half still won't be out for no time soon. please don't get another 16 pro max 3 is enough if you have a iphne 15 pro max stick with that.
Sorry dude, but I don’t believe that this a genuine problem. It is possible that a bad batch ended up in your local retail store. Try getting from a more distant Apple Store.
Here is my iphone track record: 1. My first Iphone was the 11 in 2020. It had MANY issues (the Galaxy s6 and this thing are the worst phones I ever had) I had to get a replacement and it took 2 month of begging Apple to do it even though it was only 2 months old. They finally did. 2. Next Iphone was the 12 Mini. A few month in I had to get the screen replaced under warranty because it was too dim. 3. My next phone was the 13 Pro. I got it and right after unboxing I had issues with the camera. I had to get a replacement. I am currently using the same Iphone 13 Pro that was given as a reaplcement 3 years later, because it has been issue free and solid. I am afraid to upgrade and run into issues. There is a very good possibilty I will go with Samsung as my next device after I milk my current phone until next year.
The camera is awful in low light. Samsung Galaxy S24 is much better. I regret trading in iPhone 13 Pro Max. That didn’t freeze and worked well in low light. 3X zoom sucks though. 5X on the 16 is worse.
they have completely dropped the ball the last 3 models. The 14 Pro series had battery issues which resulted in lawsuits. 15 line up had overheating issues. and look what’s happening with the 16 lineup. This isn’t the first video I’ve seen outlining issues with the 16 line up. This is why I’m holding onto my faulty free, workhorse 13 Pro for dear life. I am afraid to get a newer Iphone. I was hoping the 16 line up would be something.

Still getting that problem?
Oh my god, same problem with mine. I thought update will solve it. But now already on ios 18.2 but the problem still persist
I had this problem and lost footage for several of my videos. I disabled the silly side touch camera button and not had a problem since 🤞🏻
I feel like without noticing some people accidentally touching it, causing it to pause and freeze
You bought a lemon it also just came out, just want views
Lets talk about the lack of touch sensativity on the 16 pro max. Ignored inputs etc. Also the camera quality is shocking compared to my old 13 pro max

After iPhone X HDR went down the toilet. You want good HDR you will want Samsung Galaxy or Google Pixel. Much better hardware.
It's on 15 Pro aswell. Many have it. I saw comments also on Reddit.

2. when videos are so big in size, to assume it is convenient and feel apple should default to 4k and expecting the same is not a justifiable assertion at all

The 16 series is a flop.
My favorite is the 14 regular size all black red case clean as hell.Even the processer for the iPhone 14 is slightly better than the iPhone 16

I discovered that this third one also has the display issue that the first one had but I'm gonna keep this one. I'm tired of Apple's lottery. I've been using iPhones since the 3Gs and I only had that many RMA with the iPhone X. I did not have a single issue with the 15 PM, the 14 Pro, the 13 Pro, 12 Pro, Don't know what's going on with their QC but I hope that with the iPhone 17 they gonna nail it because I worked pretty hard for that money I spent on the 16 PM..
I Come to this video because I bought an iPhone 16 Pro Max and it constantly crashes Apps like Spotify of WhatsApp.i also experience Problems With Bluetooth where the Phone loses connection to my headphones.... I bought this Phone mainly for doing Videos but I havent try it. I will try out What you were telling in the video
I've had this problem too! Panning in portrait mode, the camera just froze!
There is another UA-camr Shayne Moysten who has a channel for astro photography. He identified a problem with 30 second timed release shutter photos. The camera has giant blue streaks in it. My 16 pro max had the same problem, I had to return the phone twice. The phone I have now produces small blue dots in 30 second timed release mode, but not the giant blue streaks.
Wow. I'm lucky I didn't have a problem like that with my iPhone 12 Pro Max and 16 Pro Max. Hopefully Apple will have it fixed soon with an update.
have anyone faced the vertical lines glitch of the iphone 16 pro max screen?
I’m on my second iPhone 16 pro max, within 24 hours! First one got red hot and locked up trying to set up, exchanged for a new one! All hopefully ok now!
Keeping my 13 pro max after seeing multi vids from different folks with issues on their 16 pm. Thanks for the vid and good luck!
The 13 and 14 is the best
Idk but my settings t not working… my camera isn’t getting set up… I can’t even touch so much stuff in the settings
My mom and I are both having issues with her iPhone 16 and and my iPhone 16PM. We both do not hear notifications for texts when our phones are on standby and locked. I looked up how to fix it and no solutions have worked. We went to AT&T and the guy just said it’s an IOS issue but didn’t really investigate with our phones. These are our first iPhones and we’re also having touch displays issues. Touch doesn’t respond with lag. We’re a bit disappointed as we finally switched from Samsung to Apple for the first time this September. Should we go to Apple?
The Pro version of the iPhone 16 is overheating and draining the battery while using the camera too
Yes i am facing this problem and touch screen issue and display glitch like green colour lines same time in setting and app library
my same photos and videos are totally Balck now it not visible wan you zoom same time you see
I am with you mate ! Very similar issues.
Totally frustrating!
I went through 3 iPhone 16 pro .
Just received the new one and hope this works !
Will update if it doesn’t. Very cumbersome and inconvenient!
any update?
@ this latest one seem to be working. Fingers crossed 😅
The older the iPhone is the better it is.Ever since Tim Cook everything goes from bad to worst.
I would recommend buying a professional grade vlog camera or cinema lines of camera's instead of using the cell phone camera.
Most problems are having to use multiple APPS to get a video done.Not the phones issues your dealing with. The only option is to use multiple phones for recording because they know their is a problem but effects only 2 % and realy won't be fixed. Simply not cost effective for so few users Unless you're a Professional .Have redundancy to offset any issues especially hardware .
I have an iPhone 16 Pro Max and I have not experienced this issue. Been doing a lot of filming but with HDR on.
I got my IPhone 16 plus last night. When the employee took it out he had to keep tapping it over 3-4 times before it responded.
I got home and it will take 5,6,7 times to respond and sometimes it will not work at all . I’m going to return it either tomorrow or Sat.. Frustrating because it’s a nice looking phone, perfect size. I might just go for the 15plus
I had an issue with my iphone 16 pro max where my headphones keeps disconnecting from Bluetooth every now and then did anyone else experienced this issue?
I film outdoors content in FL as well, it seems the next goal should be the DJI Action Pro 5 combo. Love your content by the way.
My 16 pm is wost. When I change it. It blackout n would ture on
One of iPhones main draw for me has been they just kind of just work…. This is concerning 😮
Well I’m having battery problems like it takes hours just to get 50 percent of charge and apple is giving me the run around
I was going to go today and buy an iPhone pro max. Thank you. I’m a UA-camr and I want a phone that will work for making videos. Looking to upgrade from the iPhone 12. Do you have any recommendations?
I would try to get a 15 Pro Max if you can or even the 15 pro would be fine. Haven’t had any issues with the camera on those.
This isn't the only camera issue the new iPhone 16 models are having. Most iPhone 16 models are also suffering from blue light streaks on night time, time lapse pictures.
The iPhone 16 is plagued with issues.
I’ve got the same issue, blue dots and lines on 30 second exposure shots. It’s all over mobile photography forums.
Been done with Apple since the 14PM..Had to get off the eco system..Once I did it and committed to it I'm happy as hell.
I’ve had this problem where the phone just cuts off
Got the iphone 15 pro couple of weeks back... It heats so much and sometimes I had to charge it thrice a day coz the battery was so bad... Here in India you have no option of returns or replacements for such issues... So I am selling it and I got a pixel 9 pro xl just yesterday... Even on day one with all the heavy downloads and all of that, no heating at all... Battery seems great even on day 1... It should only improve from here...
iPhone's are surely degrading in quality since the 13 pro...
The fact you personally have gone through so many phones with the same issues, is just crazy. Especially from apple. Who've built their entire brand on the 'they just work' slogan'.
I bought a ip16pro max 1Tb on 11/11/24 and have not done much yet, I had a i11 pro max (448/512)gb and cuoldn’t understand the difficulty a simple backup old (516/512gb.) /download (63/1020gb) to /from iCloud. Wifi to wifi failed & was told to upgrade iCloud to 2Tb. With no end insight. I am still backing up my ip11 (62% complete on 20/11/24), I’m determined to reach completion after such a prolonged process! ( some of you may have noticed iCloud storage has exceeded what’s in ip11; very strange)
I wonder if this problem exists in the iPhone 16 Pro. Or is it just a Max issue?
Mine also 😢 it's overheating
Weird. I went from the 11 pro max to the 14 pro max and now to the 16 pro max. So far no issues. Or bugs. And I’m a photographer who heavily uses the cameras. 🤷♂️
I gave up using the iPhone since iPhone 12, I had the iPhone 12 and it started to get really warm and I had to charge it three times a day, I didn't know if it was been hacked and apple was no help with the problem, if you want a very good phone buy the Google pixel 9 pro, it is by far the best cell phone I ever owned,
For videos it has twenty times zoom feature that is really amazing
WTF ??? not sayin that i don't believe you man this is a huge problem though was thinking of getting the 16PM next month and thanks to you i think i wount, as the reason that im buyin it is cause it's superior video i never had this issue on my 15PM or lower than that
Mine just turned off and won’t turn on?
I have problem with 18.2 and contact apple online derive but it didn’t solve well…. So I am waiting for 18.3😢
Only problem would be taking high dynamic range but other than that there is nothing else.
Exactly what I have experienced from 14 Pro Max to 15 Pro Max
Previously
Feels like loosing part of myself 😢😂 4:07
I don't know but I just opened my iPhone 16PM yesterday, as I am trying to take normal pic then suddenly it shuts off for a minute then comes back to life... I thought the battery was drained after transferring all my stuff from android to ios, but it wasn't.
Though it's too expensive here in the UK + VAT (£1599), I took the shot to try apple this time because of its durability from previous launched devices. i'll see how long it will last.
Additionally, it says made from titanium+extra, but it feels like plastic to me when I hold it 😅
Do you face any frame drop issue on your iPhone 16 pro max?
Exactly! The Apple from yrs ago is not the Apple today! They push Apple Intelligence to get us to buy a new 15pro/16 and it’s not even out yet. It’s like they just said it’s coming to say it so they won’t fall further behind… sorta sad. With that said still rocking 12 pm Apple Watch 4 lol. I’m thinking of getting the 10.? I want the black I’ve always had dark apple products but I’m scared to gonna get scratched to shit so I’m probably gonna be forced to get the silver or space gray or whatever it is. Apple definitely needs to start up in their game like years ago, are they lost a customer. The Apple android difference from years back is almost no longer special with the RCS. It’s pretty much whatever you prefer. The big thing I think with people is the whole ecosystem. I definitely don’t wanna change everything but force to I would. I also been an Apple consumer since the 4S along with all the iPods and iPads and max I bought for my family over the years. The money!!! Then you have to go out and buy three separate phones at work?? What happened to the Apple tax? It’s almost not worth it anymore. Their motto before was it just works….DOES IT!?
I’ve returned 3 16 pro max models they all had problems 🤨
Haven't had ay problems yet. I use Picket 3 for videos though
You are the nightmare customer for retail. Constantly coming in to complain/ swap out a phone because of a rare "defect" that 99.9% of the population does not experience.
These are my issues
RCS comes and go
News app keeps changing language from English to French and French to English
Black dots Emojies
Txt Apple and the AI told me that I needed to wait for iOS 18.2 to resolve these issues
Oh yes if you chose to chat w Apple, you will be chatting with a machine 😵💫
I know this might not apply to you, but another pretty apparent issue for anyone who shoots night photography, is a bunch of the Pro's have an issue with blue lines through the image. Something that doesn't happen on the 15 Pro Max, nor does it happen on all of the 16 Pros. It's gotten to a point where Apple now have an internal memo that dictates to staff, not to replace the phone for this issue as they don't see it as a fault. Despite it only happening with select devices. Wild. F u 🍎
I have one and have had ZERO problems.
scratches on frame straight out of the box on 1 16 pro 1 pro max in black
dust in lens on launch day pro max in desert titanium
Nobody talks about how bad iPhones are in heat they suck so bad it’s painful. Apple is so boring 😢
the 15 Pro Max is the best iphone out right now apple rushed the 16 pro max over hyped it with features that wasn't even out and half still won't be out for no time soon. please don't get another 16 pro max 3 is enough if you have a iphne 15 pro max stick with that.
Yes, get a fourth one and let us know the verdict.
No problems with my 16 Pro Max. But they've been taking forever getting my Apple Watch 10 to me.
Has anybody had issues with not having iMessage
Mine stays in sos non stop! Done everything
Apple outsource some production to their temu manufacturing 😅
This is strange I’m sorry you had issues with your device my 16 pro max has ran flawlessly so has my wife’s 16 pro
This is what is made in India looks like😂
Thanks for telling me I was going to get this phone trade-in my s24 ultra for it it looks like I'm going to keep my Samsung Galaxy s24 ultra
Apple died when Jobs died. Period.
Sorry dude, but I don’t believe that this a genuine problem. It is possible that a bad batch ended up in your local retail store. Try getting from a more distant Apple Store.
Here is my iphone track record:
1. My first Iphone was the 11 in 2020. It had MANY issues (the Galaxy s6 and this thing are the worst phones I ever had) I had to get a replacement and it took 2 month of begging Apple to do it even though it was only 2 months old. They finally did.
2. Next Iphone was the 12 Mini. A few month in I had to get the screen replaced under warranty because it was too dim.
3. My next phone was the 13 Pro. I got it and right after unboxing I had issues with the camera. I had to get a replacement.
I am currently using the same Iphone 13 Pro that was given as a reaplcement 3 years later, because it has been issue free and solid. I am afraid to upgrade and run into issues. There is a very good possibilty I will go with Samsung as my next device after I milk my current phone until next year.
Just get a s24u, I've had zero issues. And I also have a iphone 15pro and 16pro
I never have a problem with iPhone. But my Samsung s24 after a month I have all the green and pink lines.
samsung remplace gratuitement l'écran , à cause de ce problème , faut faire la demande avec la facture
Right 😂😂😂 that crazy but still buying it for sure iPhone 16 pro
The camera is awful in low light. Samsung Galaxy S24 is much better. I regret trading in iPhone 13 Pro Max. That didn’t freeze and worked well in low light. 3X zoom sucks though. 5X on the 16 is worse.
dude next years iphone is going to be the same amount and you get better stuff ai might even be better imma wait TILL that 18 pro max
Me watching this after buying one 2 days ago and waiting for it to be released 🤡
IN BRAZIL
13 mini ftw
iphone 15 is the best
No you are dead wrong, it has heating issues and won't get any AI updates in future .😅
they have completely dropped the ball the last 3 models. The 14 Pro series had battery issues which resulted in lawsuits. 15 line up had overheating issues. and look what’s happening with the 16 lineup. This isn’t the first video I’ve seen outlining issues with the 16 line up. This is why I’m holding onto my faulty free, workhorse 13 Pro for dear life. I am afraid to get a newer Iphone. I was hoping the 16 line up would be something.
@@Harsh_Da_GreatI’ve had my 15 since day one no overheating personally but allot of people did and it will get AI updates
@@Ib_12Ap As of now, the regular iPhone 15/15 plus will not get AI. Only the 15 Pro and 15 Pro Max.
