Apple iPhone 16 Pro vs iPhone 16: Which one to get?

iPhone 16 - all models only support 160MHz WIFI 7, that’s why in all wireless speed tests they have exactly half the max download speed of S24 Ultra and OnePlus 12 (these support 320MHz)

A used 13 pro max is the best value big iPhone you can get. Probably $250 cheaper than the 16 plus and you aren’t losing out on much while you gain 120hz if that’s what you’re looking for. And the 13 mini is still an amazing value for the small phone enthusiasts among us.

So today my IPhone XS reached his warrior destination, and I’m done with fixing it again... This video helped me out to decide what type of phone to buy. Will take 16 non-Pro. Thank you!

Upgraded my 13 mini to 15 pro and it worth every penny. Previously considering 16 vanilla model but 60 hz just unacceptable in 2024 with this price point.

Better Camera ✅
120 Hz ✅
Always on Display ✅
Apple Intelligence ✅
Support Ray Tracing ✅

and the list goes on…

Your videos are detailed and precise. Would love to see samsung ecosystem vs apple ecosystem advancements video if possible.

The 6.3 inch size for the pro model is the Goldilocks size for smartphones.

i have the 16 pro, natural titanium 1tb and it's a great phone, i'm enjoying it so far! i did an unboxing/first impression on my channel too.

[BoRerunn]

I returned my 16 Pro, it's just too heavy for being a mid phone

[schandy]

12mp? Auto is the fusion and does 24mp, unless you change it to 12mp for storage savings, if not run full 48mp.

*_There we are United, there in Canada, here in the United Kingdom, throughout Europe, Asia and Oceania, we are seeing that Apple has lost a lot of strength and market share with its iPhones and other products compared to the past._*

_The drops in sales and replacement are getting bigger and bigger in relation to its products according to official data and in comparison to Android devices that really have Artificial Intelligence (AI) and are very interesting devices, truly intelligent and full of useful features._

*Even with this IOS 18.0.1 update, on the iPhone 16 Pro Max, you feel like you are light years ahead compared to Android devices.*


_Apple Intelligence is a very dumb and stupid system that does not work properly and is very limited compared to Artificial Intelligence. If we take the Pixel 7a, which is a very simple version of the Pixel from 3 years ago, you see that this device is much more useful and that its Artificial Intelligence is more superior than the more expensive iPhone._

*_If we compare high-quality devices such as Sony Xperia, Samsung Galaxy, Pixel, ASUS ROG Phone and Android devices in countless other areas, Apple's iOS devices seem ridiculous and obsolete products because their technologies are too obsolete compared to Android._*

_Only after more than 10 years did voice recording arrive natively, to this day there is no multitasking on the same screen (a few years ago they released an app for this but you had to pay), it is not possible to close all the apps at once, there is no Regenerative Artificial Intelligence, there is no multi-screen (two apps simultaneously on the same screen), there is no simultaneous translation and there are no really useful and important things for everyday use that are available on Android._

*Apple's smartphones are good but they are far from being the best.*

*_For me, after using an iPhone 15 Pro Max a lot, spending a whole day using the iPhone 16 Pro Max, seeing comparisons and comparing it with the Sony Xperia 1 V / 1 VI, Pixel 8 Pro / 9 Pro XL and Samsung Galaxy S24 / S24 Ultra, in my opinion, I would never trade a good Android device like the ones I mentioned for an iPhone 16 Pro Max and the big growing drops in the worldwide numbers are showing that._*

What power the 16 has but that 60 Hz is a bummer.

[anglo-saxonconnor]

This is a question for iphone users only. For andriod users and people who have break away from iphones this qurstion is irrelevant unless you want to switch from android os to apple os eco system.

[Waseem]

Pro cost me 1200 dollars in the US 256GB variant

[saddamnil]

How to fixed pixel 7 pro network issue?

[harshitnautiyal]

Smartphones have become so boring. There was a time when companies like HTC, Sony, Samsung and LG used to produce great smartphones with innovative design and features. Iphones were great too but know the whole smartphone industry has become stagnant and boring.

[srosner]

60hz refresh rate in 2024 is unacceptable. Period.

[kittikorn]

Both use oled but only one have aod?
Lmao

[djwellttonster]

*_I've seen imitation technologies but this time Apple Bitten copied too much the Sony Xperia that it was extremely visible..._*

[mdjaberahmed]

I‘ll buy used (iphone 14 pro) rather then iphone 16
