    The camera button is just a gimmick to show that they have something new. Instead of this, they should've given higher screen refresh rate on vanilla model

      I miss having a camera button on a phone. Apples implementation actually looked kind of promising in the promo footage, such a shame if it actually sucks in real-life use.

      Feels very out of character for Apple to have this kind of gimmick. A capacitive fingerprint scanner in the power button would be pretty badass, though.

      People already saying the button has issues, if u press softly it does not take pictures and if you press harder then the phone moves and you get blurry images. Best is that people get used to it eventually.

      Yep. For me, it would have been at least 90htz, give it a titanium casing, and drop the absolutely useless camera button.

      And iPhone 16 colors are actually decent compared to last year's shitty colors on the base 15. Other thant that, there's not much worth getting on iPhone 16.

    The light issue is "lens flare" caused by the kind of glass used by iPhone's cameras. It essentially doubles the lights present on scene, and they're very visible on the recording. Some other companies struggle with it too- but never to this extend.

      It's the bright light passing through lens cover, then bouncing off the actual camera lens back on to the inside of the lens cover and back into the lens again. Drives me nuts having green aliens spaceships in my videos. They claim to have 'improved' it over previous versions, but its still there. It actually appears in the photos as well, but as its not wiggling around you can't see it and the software can remove/hide it as its only one one frame, not 25 - 60 frames a second. Thanks for the review 🙏

    Long story short
    Ip12 below -> upgrade
    Ip13 up -> don't upgrade
    Also 60hz is not bad especially if the system is optimized for it, what's not good is the price they charge for it.
    Most of the people upgrading to the 16 would probably be on telco plans and won't be bothered by the pricing tho.

      60htz does preserve battery life, and I think many reviewers leave that part out. If I had a 120htz option, I would likely only turn it on for gaming to preserve battery.

    The 15 is easier to get regocnized because of how the cameras are placed on the backside, therefore the risk that a thief sees that you have an iPhone is higher. I think the base 16 model is the one with the lowest risk of getting stolen because of that. The cameras on the 16 are placed in a way many android phones are placed too, so its not as easy to see that its an iPhone based on the backside.

    The camera button is just dumb. As a professional photographer, I just can't with that. Also, as a photographer, higher contrast is not a selling point for me. It literally screams "This is a cell phone shot!" Lol. I do like how it handles low light and sunny situations. I hate how the back of the phone looks. The verticle camera layout coupled with the intense color makes the iphone look cheap to me. I love my more muted iphone 15 in pink. It's fun while not looking like a phone for a teen. But those are just personal preference things. For me, the promise of AI doesn't make it worth the upgrade, especially since my iPad pro, which I will use more for writing and photo editing and work, will get it. I simply think it's more useful on that device, with the one exception of siri upgrades. I will probably wait for a future release and redesign. Just not a big enough upgrade for me, plus, in an iPhone in particular, the asthetic actually is important to me, and I just think the 16 base models are ugly. I do like the pro models though. I'm looking forward to next year's design.

    If you guys want to know my tips, iPhone 16 is worth an upgrade if you really are into Apple Intelligence and camera hues are really better. Plus 15 base all have bad battery life span reported. Other than that, there’s no reason to upgrade imo. Camera button is nothing but a gimmick, you’re far better off without it. Plus every time you’ll risk damaging your thumbprints sliding 😂😂😂
