Upgraded from a gold 14 Pro Max. I was initially underwhelmed with both the 15 and 16 series. However, AT&T offered a compelling trade in opportunity, so I jumped before inevitable price increase in the 17/18/19 series. Some thoughts
1) Coming from the heavy 14PM, the 16PM is easier to hold and handle despite the bigger dimensions (I know it is larger than the 15PM)
2) I like camera control button
3) Photo quality improvement is noticeable
4) I went with natural titanium. I like the titanium edge more than I thought I would
5) I am glad to preserve the always on display - I have been considering downgrading to the regular series, but it the current 16s don’t have the crucial feature, and it looks like the 17s will lose the plus option. If is frustrating how difficult Apple makes it to move from pro to regular, but it is what it is
6) Charging is faster
An iterative upgrade for sure, but I am glad I made it for basically zero out of pocket and after trading in a phone in pretty poor condition (broken back glass). Plan to keep this phone for the next three years
