Apple Announces iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max with Larger Displays, New Camera Control, and More

[AZFalconi]

I have been an apple user all my life and growing up would wait in the Macworld line for over 20 hours to see Steve speak. Today's presentation makes me want to never buy an apple product ever again. There are no real changes besides software that was already introduced. Plus they never show you how to easily turn off all this apple intelligence and onscreen awareness that I very actively do not want. The apple eco system is a money trap for idiots these days.

Settings> Apple Intelligence and Siri> off

Not that difficult

Still have the pill?

Yep.

 

[Rayansb]

looks like my 14 pro max isn't going anywhere.

 

[kylelerner]

I now upgrade my iPhones when my battery starts to deplete.
Not because of new features or exiting changes.

Unfortunate.

 

[klasma]

how come my pics never look like the ones they present??!

You're holding it wrong.

 

[KrazyBear15]

Keeping my 13 Pro Max.

You're holding it wrong.

i guess! lol...

 

[CarpalMac]

“ALL NEW DESIGN” 🤣🤣🤣

Peak self parody, surely?

 

[kp98077]

May just keep my google pixel 9 pro..

today's presentation is unbelievably bland and boring, nothing really new despite the marketing babble

I don't recall any of the TC era presentations that were not bland and boring. . . . it just became more so when they were recorded in advance. At least, pre-Covid, a live audience provided feedback. Now it is just a long infomercial.

I want to upgrade from my 14 pro max cause the battery life is trash now :/.

 

[Kylo83]

Where is faster charging and brighter displays, most of the new pro features are not gonna be used

PSA: Not everybody is trying to record a movie or music video on their iPhone.
Why has this been the baseline and main selling point for each iPhone Pro announcement since 2020?

 

[DaveXX]

So the only new thing is the Button that’s it.
Apple AI will be not available in europe, new Siri functions are exclusive to English and in other languages available if iPhone 17 or 18 comes out.
Sounds really exciting. Seems I can save a lot of money this year. But at least the iPhone got more than just a new color like Watch Ultra lol

 

[madrigal77]

Meh. Don't see anything here that makes me feel the need to upgrade my 15PM. Colours are extra bland this year as well.

 

[BelgianChoklit]

I wonder when we'll see the end of this design. Whether it's a great design or not, people want change. I'm on the 15 Pro and won't upgrade until it changes. Aiming for the twentieth anniversary 2027

Totally, 100% agree with you on this. Battery depletion is my only, current motivation to upgrade.

My battery health is still at 95% capacity. I'll just wait and maybe get an iPad mini.

its called a Pro for a reason lol.. Its geared towards professional photographers and filmers etc

Mine is down to 87% and I got it maybe a month after launch.

 

[BelgianChoklit]

Quite disgusting the Pro model starts from 128GB.

 

[Ameer_1]

Not much of a difference but at least it stayed at $999

 

[klky]

They finally made a 2 meter version of the MagSafe charger. Congratulations.

 

[joshwithachance]

When they went so deep into Apple Intelligence (AGAIN!) during the 16 announcement I just knew the Pros were going to be a lackluster and uninspired hardware update as well.😩

 

[ethanwa79]

Is there any difference between the Pro and Pro Max besides screen size and battery life??
