I just got my 16 Pro Max 512 in Natural Titanium. It’s an upgrade from an 8 Plus Gold. I always love watching your videos, especially the unboxing and setups.
I did buy the 16pro. I’m upgrading from a 13. Seems like all the people who are saying pass all have the 15 already. For those of us that go 3 yrs between iPhones, this seems like a good time to upgrade. I picked desert titanium as well w/256.
I picked up the 16 pro max 256 GB Desert Titanium. i have a minimal case so i can still see the colors. its a very fast and powerful phone. i have to get used to the camera controls though. a few times a swiped left to launch the camera instead of pushing that special button
I traded in an IPhone 13 Pro for a 16 Pro Max and I have to say the set up was flawless and I am very pleased with the speed and ease of use !!! Thanks to you for always keeping us up with everything coming in updates and new products 👍🏼
I upgraded from a 13Pro 512 Sierra Blue to a 16Pro 256 White Titanium. Like everyone else, I keep wishing for a more colorful palette for the Pros. Setup was a bit lumpy only bc I have 2 icloud accounts and had to use my MBA to get it all straightened out. Your videos are awesome. You're the go-to guy in our household.
I’m not convinced at all this year and will stick to my 15 Pro Max for the moment. The camera control seems difficult to use and oddly placed: using the screen controls seems much easier. Thanks for the video.
I still haven’t decided if I want to upgrade yet. I have a 13 pro and I replaced the battery earlier this year and it runs really smoothly. If I do decide to get one I’ll probably get the 16 pro in black.
Picked up the iPhone16Pro today. Black 256GB. Transfer from 14Pro went ok but had to add two more email accounts that did not transfer. As usual your content is the best. As a photo hobbyist, I'll be using the photo button and controls more than most others but we'll see how effective the editing options are now.
Aaron your goated i switched from samsung to iphone and i will not go back its so much better and your videos are very informative but i like you get straight to the facts and not give your opinion too much when i watch content i dont care for peoples opinions i just want the facts and you do that always keep it up 👍🏻💪🏻
I was considering upgrading from my 13 PM but I decided to pass, because I got the battery replaced about a year ago. I’ll be getting the 17 Pro next year. Hoping the Pro and Pro Max get the same features like they have now, since it’s rumored the PM would be the only one to get the smaller Dynamic Island.
I’m getting the iPhone 16 pro max 512gb in black titanium coming from 512gb iPhone 14 Pro Max I preordered late and not expected to get my phone til Oct 9-16
As a left handed person, select double click for the camera. While the set up is super quick as noted. You will probably have to reenter some details on banking and other apps that require passwords, credit card numbers etc.
going to upgrade from my iphone 12 pro max to 16 pro max black 256 GB / looks like its the same price for the same 256 GB for pro or pro max so i will choose the bigger size
I've owned every iPhone from the beginning up until the 11 Pro. That's when iPhone fatigue set in. No real changes. Now I do odd years, had the 13 Pro, now the 15 Pro....I just hope the 17 Pro is a proper upgrade.
Upgrade to 16 pro max 512 gb from 13 pro max. I was a pain restoring from iCloud backup it kept freezing and crashing after I left the Apple Store. Finally in the evening when I got home I was able to leave it alone for a couple of hours let it do it thing then it was usable 😅
I have two new iPhone 16 pros here for my wife and I in unopened boxes. I’m replacing the 13 pros. I’m Seriously considering returning them… The camera control button just doesn’t excite me. It appears to be too finicky for every day use. Maybe I’m just getting old…
Currently on my iPhone 14 Pro, battery health at 87%. Would it be worth it to go for the new iPhone 16 Pro? Someone might be able to help me to make a good decision?
Aaron. I have the 15 pro. Is there anything apart from the camera that should make me want to upgrade? I don’t really need updated camera features. Your opinion is appreciated. Thank you.
I just can’t this year since I have the 1TB 15PM. But did get the series 10 and wow the difference from wearing the ultra/2 for 2 yrs. Buddy of mine is a MGR of a Verizon store we’re in from and texted him and he said only had 1 preorder and nobody has come in and got the 16pro/max but did say the 16 has sold
It doesn’t mean anything, he just called it the wrong thing, plus, iPhone upgrades aren’t always gonna have big crazy changes, they can be incremental too
Me too, I ended up deleting the app reinstalling getting off wifi to install it and logged in off wifi and got it to work. Otherwise I kept getting error. Works on wifi now too 😊
@@ronr7791 I just checked for app updates. 2 of the apps had an update. Installed them. Now they’re working. One was my Bank and the other is for the movies. There’s 1 more that’s still not working correctly.
16 pro max black titanium 1tb, replacing a 13 pro max space gray 1tb. It was delivered right before I had to leave for work had to leave it knowing it’s gonna take hours to transfer my stuff.😢
The light press didnt seem to work well for me, I feel I have to press a bit for it to activate, I actually turned the whole button off as I dont think I will use it much if at all. I find it easier and faster to just click the screen.
Watching on my new 16 Pro Max Desert Titanium 1TB model. Overall, this definitely feels like a refined 15 Pro Max. It runs much cooler, has better battery life and the display seems much brighter and snappier this time around. The 15 Pro Max was always a very warm phone when pushed and within the last 3 months, the battery health degraded precipitously. Ultimately, that’s really the only reason I upgraded as I usually keep my phones for 2 to 3 years. I also like the bigger screen and the smaller bezels. To my eyes, it’s very noticeable. The Camera Control button is fun to mess around with although not sure how much I will use it. The more exciting use case for that button will be coming later with Visual Intelligence which I’m probably more excited about than some of the other new Apple Intelligence features. Thank you for the clear and informative videos as always Aaron! Looking forward to more analysis of the iPhone 16 Pro series.
About to purchase the 16 pro. Currently have an iPhone 11 so this will be a big upgrade for me. I agree about the black titanium…was looking at the desert color, but the black looks really nice as Aaron said.
Getting the Pro or Pro Max on the 4th. Not sure which, I like the feeling of a medium sized phone. Sometimes the Pro Max is… Max. Definitely getting Black as the color though.
I was gonna get it but after using my brain for awhile and seeing nothing worth swapping for i think i will wait with my 15 pro max and get the 17 pro max next year
I always appreciate your reviews because you use lots of good lighting and you have a great voice! It kills me when I watch an unboxing and the person doing the filming doesn't do a good job so the colors are all off.
Does anyone else think Aaron would also be great at being the guy that reads audio books?
Absolutely!
Was just thinking this.
Yes, his voice is steady and easy to listen to while he can be talking about everything and anything you still listen to him 😎
yes
I just got my 16 Pro Max 512 in Natural Titanium. It’s an upgrade from an 8 Plus Gold. I always love watching your videos, especially the unboxing and setups.
That’s a huge upgrade! Enjoy!
That’s one hell of an upgrade!
Awesome upgrade
@@MbSbAquaGamer I agree
That black is so pretty
Looks grey to me
There is nobody better than Aaron at these videos. They're real slick He's a real pro. The go to guy for tech reviews.
From the looks of the 16 Pro Max, it looks surreal because of the thinnest bezels on an iPhone. Love your unboxing video Aaron!
The difference is so negligible you wouldn’t even notice it unless you had them both side by side.
I did buy the 16pro. I’m upgrading from a 13. Seems like all the people who are saying pass all have the 15 already. For those of us that go 3 yrs between iPhones, this seems like a good time to upgrade. I picked desert titanium as well w/256.
Yeah I’m on a 13 pro blue. Still good but ready to upgrade
How are you not invited to Apple events?!?!?! Your content is really good.
just depends on the year
Agreed! They should invite him each year.
Maybe you should take over Tim Cook
@@PabloCucciI agree. Time for Timmy to go and Aaron to be the new Apple CEO lol.
He is the Apple Event
I jus got the iphone 16 pro, i love it. I switched from the 14 pro max. I wanted a change- the smaller phone is nice. 😎
I mean you do you but personally I’m keeping my 14 pro.
Fr I feel the max is just too big, sure the battery is great but i am seriously considering buying the pro for comfort
@@mas96 I love the pro since I have small fingers.
Im getting the 16 pro max
I picked up the 16 pro max 256 GB Desert Titanium. i have a minimal case so i can still see the colors. its a very fast and powerful phone. i have to get used to the camera controls though. a few times a swiped left to launch the camera instead of pushing that special button
You can set the button up be pressed twice that way it won’t launch every time. 😊
I bought the 16 Pro Max in Desert Titanium 256 gig. Won’t be here until October. I’m living vicariously through you. 😊
I traded in an IPhone 13 Pro for a 16 Pro Max and I have to say the set up was flawless and I am very pleased with the speed and ease of use !!! Thanks to you for always keeping us up with everything coming in updates and new products 👍🏼
The black one looks so amazing 😮
Should I upgrade from 14 pro max I really wanna use the Apple intelligence features

Just got my mother a desert titanium 16 pro max, and she really loves it, an upgrade from her 13 pro
I went with the desert titanium and 512 storage love it so far
That “Hi everyone” at 0:00 though 😂
i think i am the only one who noticed that
@@ERROKHAMI Nope.
I replayed that!🤣🤣🤣
I’m not convinced at all this year and will stick to my 15 Pro Max for the moment. The camera control seems difficult to use and oddly placed: using the screen controls seems much easier. Thanks for the video.
I agree with the control. Seems a little difficult to use. Guess we will see.
I still haven’t decided if I want to upgrade yet. I have a 13 pro and I replaced the battery earlier this year and it runs really smoothly. If I do decide to get one I’ll probably get the 16 pro in black.
Black Color so cool 😎
I always like the new colors but still get the black :D
@@Distop_ no money 😅
Me too 🖤🖤
Just got my 15 pro max few months ago after upgrading from iphone 11 and still happy. There's almost nothing new except for those very small upgrade.
Same here. Might upgrade next year 17
Cool story but why would you upgrade if you just upgraded a few months ago? 🤔🤔🤔
The upgrade is actually pretty significant because of Apple Intelligence. You should’ve just waited to be honest.
@@mecharidleyApple intelligence will work for IPhone 15 pro and pro max
@@mecharidleythe same intelligence features will be available on the 15 Pro as well. Not much of an upgrade.
Got mine 16 pro today. Loved the size as I have small hands pro max will be too big and the features is same except the battery life.
Hello Aaron …. Is it significant to upgrade from IPhone 15 to IPhone 16 Pro ???
Hi there I am going for the iPhone 16 pro max 1TB which should be here in the next 30 days
I pre-ordered the black. Do you use screen protectors and cases. Just curious. I personally think it takes away from the sleekness
I've got the iPhone 16 Pro Max 256GB Back Titanium what storage did you get
Is it worth it to upgrade from 12 pm?

This new button is gonna make me want to become a photographer
My main goal is great battery life & slimmer bezels, this excels at both. Kinda worried about the size though. I’ll have to see it in person.
I went with the 16 Pro in natural titanium 256GB. Upgraded from a 13. 👍
I like the 512gb White Titanium the most this year
I went with the black titanium 16 pro max 256 as well.
is the 16 worth to buy ? or the pro max ? im still using XR but doesnt know what to buy
I’ve been dealing with a sound problem on my 14 pro max for a lil over a year now, kinda wanna switch bc of it
Watching this on my 16 Pro. Upgraded from the 13 and loving it so much so far. Good video!!

Glad you finally made a video, was waiting for your video about the iPhone 16s ❤.
which color is best for pro max?
If I am on iOS 18.1 beta 4 and receive the new iPhone 16 pro max today, what do you suggest I do ?
Do you feel that the camera bump is smaller than previous models
going to upgrade from my iphone 12 pro max to 16 pro max black 256 GB / looks like its the same price for the same 256 GB for pro or pro max so i will choose the bigger size
Ill be picking up the black pm and the black ultra 2.

nothing interesting for the 17 pro apart from under display face id.
@@onaticswhat do yall expect the phone to do? Make yall teleport or something ?
Aaron why did apple not supply a plug for the iPhone? I got my new phone yesterday.
Watching this on my 12 pro, is it time to upgrade?🤔
Upgrade to 16 pro max 512 gb from 13 pro max. I was a pain restoring from iCloud backup it kept freezing and crashing after I left the Apple Store. Finally in the evening when I got home I was able to leave it alone for a couple of hours let it do it thing then it was usable 😅

Honestly the pro doesn't feel big at all!its just the perfect size
I got the desert titanium but to be honest it looks very pinkish , so I am about to see if I can exchange it for the natural titanium.
My White 16 pro max arrives tomorrow 😊 wanted a different colour, had dark colours for years.
Is the hot spot updated on the 16 pro max?
Got the iPhone 16 Pro Max 1TB desert titanium. Loving it so far.
You that type of person that burns money
Should i get Natural Titanium or Black?

Does old camera button on screen still work, hope so?
The fact that you called the 16 Pro Max the 15 Pro Max definitely says a lot about just how little of an upgrade these phones are
Yes, that MUST be it. Not the fact that it just released today and people have had the 15 and been saying 15 for a year.
@@chris7077 nice one 😂
Ill get the 15 pro when the price drops.

My 16 Pro in Desert Titanium 256 GB will be here Tuesday and is an upgrade from the 14 Pro. Great review 👍
I overslept 20 minutes after pre-order went on sale waiting for 512 black 16 Pro Max says October 2 to the seventh
What about the wallpaper in display & brightness? Still no update to iOS 18 wallpaper in “dark” “light” selected?

Mines should be delivered in a few hours
Mine was supposed to be here an hour ago 😭 watching on my 13 Pro Max working from my laptop in the garage 😂
I have decided to stick with my 15 pro max yes there are some good upgrades but enough to justify the upgrade. It will be the 17 or 18 for me
The corners are also slightly more rounded on the iPhone 16 pro/max
