Hey E, awesome video as always! Your review was so honest and true, you mentioned everything that needed to be said, both good and bad. The 16 Pro is basically just a souped-up 14 Pro, so if you have a 14 Pro, I'd say hold onto it and wait for the 17 models.
What if you got a 13 pro? Thinking of taking advantage of AT&T's free upgrade with trade in. Seems like it may be worth it moving from 13 pro to 16 pro.
@@jamesosteen09So you’ll get the iPhone 16 Pro when upgrading from AT&T for free? Does your monthly bill go up in price? If the answers on both questions are yes and no, I would recommend getting the iPhone 16 Pro.
Agreed on this review, best one of scene ... What phone are you coming from? I had a 14 Pro Max, got the regular pro this time, first time I haven't gone max and it's perfect. The usb-c alone would be enough for me to upgrade, so much easier not having to bring an extra lightning.
@@ALROD It does work perfectly, and since the only pictures I take are of my cats my needs in a camera are modest (altho' the 14's camera is excellent).
Ugh I’m so happy to hear! I was holding onto my iPhone 12 mini until yesterday I ordered the iPhone 16 pro!!! You just made me feel so good about my decision I was regretting it a bit
@@BenJamin-0707 yeah the 13 mini was almost perfect except for the battery. I traded in for a 16 pro max mainly for the battery and this thing is a beast.
I also noticed the issues with the Control Panel when the phone is turned horizontally. The workaround I’ve found is to remove all the controls from the screen and then add them back one by one from the menu without manually rearranging them. Once you understand how Control Centre prioritises the controls on the grid, it becomes easier to translate your layout between portrait and landscape. However, in your example, there’s some empty space at the top, so this workaround won’t be effective, as it requires the controls to be moved manually. Since most users rarely use the Control Panel in landscape mode, it might take some time before Apple implements a better solution for this in the source code.
If anybody is coming from a 14 pro or later, don’t upgrade, but if you have a 14 or before like me ( I have the 13 ) then yes, upgrading will be amazing
This is a lie, the 16 pro has significant changes. The bigger screen size on the pro is a huge upgrade itself. The better cameras is way better. The 15 pro took horrible pictures. Battery was crap and etc I can imagine the 14 pro, super outdated, super heavy compared to the 16 pro models.
Great video. Just went from the 15 pro max to the 16 pro. As far as the RAM goes there is no reason not to constantly load it up with as much as possible to make it smoother. When opening apps it will move things in and out but caching as many things in RAM that you might do next helps with smoothness.
This is the first time i’am watching your video, but i’m sure that I will continue watching your video because you are fair, funny and your videos are awesome 🎉
The only youtuber who found that control panel landscape bug. I needed to rearrange mine countless of times to fit what i want it to do both in landscape n potrait
Always can count on quality and fair reviews. Coming from a 12 pro, it seems like the base version sounds like the right choice. Unless the updates change my mind.
I've always opted for larger displays, going back to when they were called "phablets" like the Samsung Note. When I switched to iOS, same deal, last phone was the 14 Pro Max ... I ended up getting the regular 16 Pro, not the max, and it's perfect. On paper it doesn't look like much of a difference, but when you're in bed watching TH-cam, the lighter weight makes it a lot better. Plus your eyes can only see so much, and for me 6.3 inches is perfect (I know). Glad I got it, albeit not by choice since I broke my old phone.
Thanks for the video! If you'd have to buy 16 pro now, what color would you choose? I'm now thinking about black vs natural. That cheap looking clear glass on the camera block of the natural one drives me crazy.
@@57forestgirl same but the better battery, microphones, 48mp ultrawide are great improvements,still deciding. And i believe the 16 pro will hold value more if i intend to sell it the next year. But dang it the size matters so much to me 😅
For the ram this may be due to, like on Linux based OS system, when there is an app running after system booting, it uses available (free) memory. When the app stop it is put in cache, but the total amount of used memory doesn’t decrease (it doesn’t go back in free memory metrics) although this doesn’t engage consumption because this memory doesn’t have any activity while cached. It is stored in case the app come alive again, and trashed only in case of need. It is not actively used but the cached memory appear in used memory. The used memory doesn’t account for this and is probably the metric measured.
Upgraded from a 14 Pro to the 16 Pro, since I upgrade every two years, as it seems to be the sweet spot for me. Admittedly, if the battery in my 14 Pro had been better, I might've waited. Though the 16 Pro feeling lighter and more comfortable to use without a case might've swayed me. I ended up disabling the camera control button because it was annoying to accidentally hit it, and the only time I actually used it was when I first got the phone. Definitely felt like a gimmick and cop-out to justify no real upgrades over last year.
Hi, in regards to the RAM, most operating systems are designed to utilise as much RAM as there is available. You can observe this on MacBooks as well. It isn't an issue and it will accomodate the on-device models no problem, as it makes space for them. Hope this helps.
Hello Mr. E! I thought I was missing the buttons in the recent calls tab because I have an iPhone 13 mini. It looks like Apple took it out of the final release... Too bad :(. Excellent video mr. E! As always!
Highly entertaining as always! As someone who currently has n S24ultra, and an iPad and a Mac, I keep waiting to be compelled back to iPhone… but I haven’t yet.
Awesome video and review! Coming from a Pixel 5 to the iPhone 16 Pro is a huge upgrade for me. Face ID is awesome, the camera is decent, and the security is better. Not only that, but I also purchased the AirPods 4 with ANC and the AW Series 10 in Jet Black.
Concerning the RAM, iOS is built on linux. And as in Linux, RAM is not either just "used" or "unused". Instead, used RAM can be put in different categories. For example, iOS may keep data you accessed from storage (your phone's slow storage) in RAM, while it no longer needs that data. This means, in case your app needs that data again, iOS does not have to load it from slow storage now, but iOS knows it has it in RAM. This saves time and energy. This is called Cached RAM. And while you could say it is not "free" RAM, it can be considered "available" if another application needs it, and thus is the equivalent of free ram. There's other categories (active, inactive, dirty, etc.), but I think Cached is the biggest and most important one to understand. When you may see RAM is at 95%, I wonder if this app takes the different categories into account? I don't know the app, I'll download it as you made me curious. 😊 Now imagine, concerning manually closing the apps, it will cause iOS to have to reallocate the information on what RAM is now free as opposed to cached or other. And, if you closed an app that had data cached, and open it again, it now may have to load data again from slow storage. So this is less efficient. All that being said, I still am guilty myself of sometimes closing all apps on my phone, just because I like the "idea" of a cleaner system, even knowing that in essence, it is not. 🤫
Do the black borders of the screen protector cover any part of the display? I’ve tried 7 different brands of screen protectors and every single one of them were too small for the 16 pro max. Please let me know if that benks screen protector fits the display properly
Great content. Thanks, man. Which iPhone would you advice an Android user switching to the Apple ecosystem to buy? iPhone 15 Pro, iPhone 15 PM, iPhone 16 Base Model, iPhone 16 Pro? I'm looking at good battery, performance and durability. Can't be buying phone yearly. I need something that can serve me for the next few years.
Software is where it's holding back, they really need to pay attention to the little things across the UI, lovk screen being the most jarring area to see, swiping down notifications to minimize them has no animation at all and it just cuts off, and the scrolling is so sluggish feeling like 30hz at best.. the way the colour theming applies feels cheap, let alone, hangs during interactions is very frequent..
I have the 15 Pto Max. Is there enough differences to make it worthwhile to upgrade to the 16 Pro Max? I’m wondering about the advantage of having the action button for example.
I upgraded from an iPhone 14 Pro to an iPhone 16 Pro Max in NT for the size increase, otherwise I wouldn’t have upgraded. However, owning more iPhones than not, this is a notable change in a few areas. Cameras (not the new button because that doesn’t matter) display bezels, small but noticeable. Processing is also noticeably more capable. But I edit videos and photos. Lastly, it’s brilliant design that’s been done well for a long time. It’s naive to hate on a company for not delivering leaps and bounds improvements every year. No company does this. In fact cars are only redesigned every 6-8 years…
@@ThisIsEthanks.😂 Would love to see some accessories then. As this is my first watch. I was planning to go to ultra when I got the 14 ProMax. Just took the jump because of the color and got it.
@@GopalanMD Hi, imho Apple’s straps are the best but very expensive. I think a bumper for the watch might be the best accessory as it’s easy to catch the top edges around the screen on things. Other than that, I can’t really think of anything truly useful.
Great review as usual. I noticed you are wearing an Oura ring - if that is so - can you do a review of it? Want a smart tracker and not a watch form factor but the Oura 4 after subscription comes out to $500 which gives me pause. Is it really life changing?
Best review thank you, can you advise on the battery of the 16 pro ?.. I opted for the pro due to the smoother screen, however the battery is degrading a lot just by web surfing.. I find my older iPhone XS seemed last longer.. iv had to turn of a lot of apps background apps etc… something seems weird.. maybe I should have opted for the 16 instead.
Why are people everywhere just discouraging everyone from buying the new iPhone? No one is considering all those people who will be upgrading from an older model like 11 or maybe 12 or even 13, these reviews are just so so idiotic where they assume everyone in this world is already having an iPhone 15 or 15 Pro, lol
lol he did say in the first 2 mins upgrading from 14 or 15 would be silly not from an older model like 13 go lower I dont think it is that the review is idiotic I just think apple riders hate even smallest criticism to their brand like what your doing
I haven't seen any reviews that cover sound quality when using external speakers like Apple CarPlay, headphones, iPhone Bluetooth speakers etc. It is a music player as well as a camera, I'd love to know if my car audio will sound better streaming iTunes lossless...
Im sick of hearing reviewers complaining about iphones or smartphones looking the same as last one. I mean you cover them with cases right? So what gives? Coca cola uses the same bottle and color for several decades already and nobody is complaining. Look at the inside first. Thats where all the updates are.
Apple dosent care what it does with the iPhone, what one or you or anyone thinks... its the subscription, where apple has all hooked on and the Benjamin's coming in. .
I have the XR and bought the 15 pro because I was lighter and 120€ cheaper. However it overheats as hell. I’ll change it for the 16 pro, do you think it’s a good idea?
Everyone should upgrade to the 16 Pro Max just for the 4K 120 FPS all in HDR on all lenses Or even better wait for the global launch of the Oppo Find X8 Ultra, ColorOs is unbeatable
The 16 Pro has a viewport width of 404 dips (device-independent pixels), whereas the 16 has a width of 393 dips despite having the exact same physical width. That's why the Pro feels noticeably bigger and more immersive by comparison. There is simply more horizontal space to layout words without wrapping to the next line. The Pro also has significantly better battery life, and it's ridiculous that Apple is selling the regular iPhone without an always-on display in 2024. All of these put together make the regular 16 a questionable buy.
As a techy myself. I wonder What stand out features will differentiate Next years iPhone 17 Vs 17 Pro other than 3rd telephoto 5X Camera because "finally iPhone17 is going to get faster refresh-rate Display 90/120Hz".....
Not sure if it’s the way I setup the settings in my 16p, but my battery lasts around ~27 hours and ~8h screen time (always on display on and low battery mode overnight when I sleep) I guess I’m a psycho as I go through the whole settings in the phones at least once every 2 days to make sure everything is running only the way I wanted
@@sandipanhaldar61 sure I can, I hope it will fit in one message. 1. Check wifi settings (no auto join nor ask to join) 2. Mobile data off if I'm on wifi (plus 5g auto ON and 5g standalone OFF) 3. Background app refresh (disabled it for all the apps that aren't important to be for instant alerts or background updates, eg Alexa or instagram or TikTok etc, I don't really need those apps to run 24/7 on background) 4. Notifications (using scheduled notifications for apps I don't need immediate response like for example gmail or PayPal or TH-cam etc, plus disabled on app I don't really care to be notified) 5. Privacy & Security (disabled all trackings and services where not needed, for example I don't need all the apps to have access to microphone or location etc) 6. Individual apps configuration (made sure that all apps are using the background and services like I wanted to, sometimes some settings appear only when you look at the individual app) I hope this helps you and maybe other people too.
there are probably some given like I use max brightness only when I need it and not 24/7, always on display without background (so just pure black with time and notifications on screen) etc
I look at incremental upgrades from a different perspective than the tech community does. They see it as lazy or lack of innovation. I see it as a sign of product maturity. Ive used Android for 12 years ios for 4 years and I still find apples ecosystem and the quality of their hardware and software experience to still have this extra polish and refinement that is hard to explain. Also upgrading yearly makes zero sense now days even if you are on Android which I currently am right now.

lol he did say in the first 2 mins upgrading from 14 or 15 would be silly not from an older model like 13 go lower I dont think it is that the review is idiotic I just think apple riders hate even smallest criticism to their brand like what your doing
@@reginaldjoseph3098 Keep crying bro! Feels nice seeing you like this
Calm down

Been waiting for this curiously, well made "E"
Thank you as always 🙏
Hey! Are you from Bulgaria or you are just on a trip right now?
Black colour so adorable
I haven't seen any reviews that cover sound quality when using external speakers like Apple CarPlay, headphones, iPhone Bluetooth speakers etc. It is a music player as well as a camera, I'd love to know if my car audio will sound better streaming iTunes lossless...
What can you advice coming from iPhone 11 Pro go for the 16th or the 15th pro
16 Pro
Im sick of hearing reviewers complaining about iphones or smartphones looking the same as last one. I mean you cover them with cases right? So what gives? Coca cola uses the same bottle and color for several decades already and nobody is complaining. Look at the inside first. Thats where all the updates are.
yes...but remember all these special editions...though only the original one became legendary :)
@@iSirPS 😊
Apple dosent care what it does with the iPhone, what one or you or anyone thinks... its the subscription, where apple has all hooked on and the Benjamin's coming in.
.
Really bad Battery life in iphone16 pro since recent ios update. Hope tbey resolve it soon.
I have the iPhone 13 max pro paid off! Debating if it's worth to upgrade 🤔 what do u think
You’ll witness significant camera improvements and less stress when it comes to weight
Awesome video, my friend; you've gained a new subscriber.
Awesome, thank you!
I have the XR and bought the 15 pro because I was lighter and 120€ cheaper. However it overheats as hell. I’ll change it for the 16 pro, do you think it’s a good idea?
Overheating is not a common issue. Try updating it or resetting it to see if that will solve the issue
Which keyboard for typing do u use brother?
Everyone should upgrade to the 16 Pro Max just for the 4K 120 FPS all in HDR on all lenses
Or even better wait for the global launch of the Oppo Find X8 Ultra, ColorOs is unbeatable
Hello, how do you create this big folder with 9 apps in it????? (6:46)Thanks for your answer….like your style of your videod
I have the 16 pro natural titanium in 1tb. I also did an unboxing and first impression on my channel and i love this phone!
Apple should bring back the call icon and also when you miss a call, the notification must have the option to call the person back or send a message.
recomended for photo and edit videos ip15PM or ip16PM?
Very similar tbh
I think price should be your deciding factor
@@ThisIsE ok thank's you 🙏
The 16 Pro has a viewport width of 404 dips (device-independent pixels), whereas the 16 has a width of 393 dips despite having the exact same physical width. That's why the Pro feels noticeably bigger and more immersive by comparison. There is simply more horizontal space to layout words without wrapping to the next line.
The Pro also has significantly better battery life, and it's ridiculous that Apple is selling the regular iPhone without an always-on display in 2024.
All of these put together make the regular 16 a questionable buy.
As a techy myself. I wonder What stand out features will differentiate Next years iPhone 17 Vs 17 Pro other than 3rd telephoto 5X Camera because "finally iPhone17 is going to get faster refresh-rate Display 90/120Hz".....
Nice video ! what is the name of the pants that you wearing? looks cool !
Thanks mate 👍
Can I have your wallpaper
I tried device monitor to my iPhone 13 Pro (still ios17) and the used ram is 95% as well. So I assume the app is not accurate
Not sure if it’s the way I setup the settings in my 16p, but my battery lasts around ~27 hours and ~8h screen time (always on display on and low battery mode overnight when I sleep)
I guess I’m a psycho as I go through the whole settings in the phones at least once every 2 days to make sure everything is running only the way I wanted
Can you mention the changes you tweaked from default to get such good battery life?
@@sandipanhaldar61 sure I can, I hope it will fit in one message.
1. Check wifi settings (no auto join nor ask to join)
2. Mobile data off if I'm on wifi (plus 5g auto ON and 5g standalone OFF)
3. Background app refresh (disabled it for all the apps that aren't important to be for instant alerts or background updates, eg Alexa or instagram or TikTok etc, I don't really need those apps to run 24/7 on background)
4. Notifications (using scheduled notifications for apps I don't need immediate response like for example gmail or PayPal or TH-cam etc, plus disabled on app I don't really care to be notified)
5. Privacy & Security (disabled all trackings and services where not needed, for example I don't need all the apps to have access to microphone or location etc)
6. Individual apps configuration (made sure that all apps are using the background and services like I wanted to, sometimes some settings appear only when you look at the individual app)
I hope this helps you and maybe other people too.
there are probably some given like I use max brightness only when I need it and not 24/7, always on display without background (so just pure black with time and notifications on screen) etc
I am upgrading from 12 pro max to 16 pro
Well deserved upgrade!
My first time going to use I phone! I just ordered the I phone 16 pro I can't wait to have this .
What is your previous device?
Hardware and software of iPhone 16 pro max is quite impressive ❤
Should I buy 16 pro?
How are your videos so good?
I’m have the 11 pro.. so I think I need an upgrade..
You deserve it
I need to upgrade from my 13 pro. The battery is very deteriorated. I love my phone but battery is at 78%. What can I do?
Replace the battery & keep it one more year
You can always replace the battery
All I hear is about how it’s the same design. Most Apple users don’t upgrade every year, so from an iPhone XR the difference is huge!
My personal favourite is iPhone 16 pro max ❤
The hardware is great indeed
Im waiting for 18 pro.
Браво много добри видеа
Много благодаря!
There’s a bug fix update for stable iOS 18 - iOS18.0.1
6 months and having limited the charging to 80% I can report that the battery 🔋 is still at 100%
Awesome Samantha here iPhone 16 Pro 2024 also
12:32 white "stojadin" hell yeah
It belongs to my father in law. It's awesome
Memory is there to be used. Unused RAM is a waste. A full RAM doesn't actually result in battery drain.
I look at incremental upgrades from a different perspective than the tech community does. They see it as lazy or lack of innovation. I see it as a sign of product maturity. Ive used Android for 12 years ios for 4 years and I still find apples ecosystem and the quality of their hardware and software experience to still have this extra polish and refinement that is hard to explain. Also upgrading yearly makes zero sense now days even if you are on Android which I currently am right now.
You are absolutely right. What upsets me a bit is the lack of polish and maturity when it comes to iOS18
@@ThisIsE it feels “underbaked” to me.
Looking at your biceps, you could do your fitness routine video 😬
So which phone you like better than ? I would say 16 pro
They are very similar. I would've stayed with the 15 Pro if it wasn't for the channel.
Going to wait till 18.4 drops before upgrading to iOS 18 which might be June 2025 😂
Hahahahah
