    The main reason I didn’t move to the iPhone 15 Pro is the terrible PWM of the display. It’s literally giving me headache after watching it for 5 minutes in the store. I hope the 16’s display will be much better in that regard.

    Unless you get me an Iphone without any physical ports, fully waterproof and hydrophobic screen I am not changing from 12 pro.
    There is simply no reason to.
    C-port? I already have wireless powerbanks that I use when hiking etc. I am able to connect charger for my apple watch to it as well

    Im waiting for the day when apple releases their best ever iPhone, where they took a brave decision to remove the screen to improve the battery life and buy it as an add-on for just 299$ for the 1080p 60fps and the 699$ for the 1440p “Pro” variant. The battery life has a massive 8% improvement.

      Is that a confusing way to say refresh rate? Or are you talking a about brightness, that‘s probably controlled with a pwm signal?

      If it‘s the latter I‘m sorry to tell you apple won‘t release dimmer phones in the future. But you can always dim the brightness to levels that do not ‚fry your eyes‘.

    I still think the 13 pro max is their best model honestly.

    Doesn’t have any weird battery issues. Has the promotion oled, doesn’t have the stupid dynamic island. Don’t love the notch and I DO notice it in certain games. Dual esim and sim card. Has lightning/wireless charging. I have about 50 lightning cables and only time I use one is my 2 foot anker for apple car play.

      Even as someone in the upgrade program I think I agree. I do kinda appreciate USB-C since I have a newer iPad, but otherwise there’s very little perceivable upgrades I’ve gotten going from a 13 to a 14 or 15. The screen is great on all of them, the performance is great on all of them, the cameras are great on all of them.

        It’s almost like upgrading annually made even some sense like 6+ years ago

      I have the 13 Pro and think the Dynamic Island looks massive on other people’s phones. I have dark mode turned on always and the notch blends in most of the time

      13 pro and pro max screen have a tendency to fail by going all white or all green

        No more or less than any other one. 13 pro max was literally the most successful launch they’ve had.

    I’m included to assume they will make the battery smaller like they have been doing. 1 year it is slightly increased and the following year it is slightly decreased when some other hardware becomes more efficient. And the cycle seems to have repeated since the XS Max I believe. Only talking about the pattern I noticed in the largest iPhone models over the years.
