According to experts, iFans should not expect much from iPhone 16, they may disappoint you!
After many years of repeated upgrades in the familiar Apple style, iPhone 15 is one of the products with the biggest changes in the entire history of Steve Jobs' inventions.
And now, in early 2024, many users with older iPhones may be thinking about upgrading their devices. Like every year, many people are looking forward to the next new iPhone line - iPhone 16.
But according to technology experts, waiting for the iPhone 16 series may be a bad idea for most people, except iPhone 14 Pro users.
You should upgrade your old iPhone to iPhone 15 instead of waiting for iPhone 16
Of course, the iPhone 16 series is still far from being officially announced, users will not know exactly what will happen with Apple's high-end smartphones in 2024. However, based on rumors, iFan can completely imagine what design the iPhone 16, iPhone 16 Plus, iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max will have.
According to rumors, the standard iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus models will have similar specifications to the iPhone 15. They will have a new design, screen, major changes to the camera system (ultra-wide camera 48MP will be equipped for some iPhone 16 models), etc.
Along with that, the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus will not have a 120Hz screen. This feature will be reserved for next year's iPhone 17. This is truly a disadvantage for future iPhone 16 owners when many mid-range smartphones already have 120Hz screens.
As for the iPhone 16 Pro Max, this iPhone will be very similar to the iPhone 15 Pro Max, except for the slightly taller 6.9-inch screen and 48MP ultra-wide camera.
In fact, not many users are excited about the additional details in the ultra-wide-angle camera, and the super-tall screen of the iPhone 16 Pro Max will only be suitable for people with very large hands. Currently, the 6.7-inch screen of the iPhone 15 Pro Max is too large to use with one hand.
Will iPhone 16 not be much different from iPhone 12?
The most disappointing thing about the iPhone 16, iPhone 16 Plus, iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max is that they will be almost exactly like the iPhone 15 "family".
The overall design of the current iPhone with a rectangular shape was introduced in 2019 with the iPhone 11 series, and the familiar flat frame (from the iPhone 5) appeared for the first time in 2020 with the iPhone 12. If the rumors To be exact, the iPhone 16 will return to a vertical camera layout, exactly like the iPhone 11 and iPhone 12.
In general, the iPhone 16 will be like a combination of the iPhone 11 and iPhone 12 of 2019-2020. This makes the public wonder whether the camera cluster and color of the new iPhone will be any different.
The only reason to wait for the iPhone 16 series is the 6.3-inch iPhone 16 Pro
In other words, the iPhone 16 Pro is the only new iPhone 16 model worth waiting for right now. According to predictions, iPhone 16 Pro will increase the screen size to 6.3 inches. This will make the 6.3-inch iPhone 16 Pro the perfect choice for those who want a large-screen iPhone that can be used with one hand.
Additionally, rumors say that Apple will return to its old strategy of providing identical feature sets for both new iPhone Pro models, regardless of size.
Therefore, the iPhone 16 Pro will have a zoom camera with Apple's 5x periscope lens, which is reserved for the iPhone Pro Max model. In other words, iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max will only have differences in screen and battery capacity!
iPhone 15 is worth buying in early 2024
iPhone 15 Pro and especially iPhone 15 Pro Max have brought major upgrades compared to the iPhone 14 Pro duo thanks to notable changes in image processing, hand feel, weight, and the first 3nm SoC. industry first and… USB-C port.
Meanwhile, the standard iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus models were a big surprise for many tech enthusiasts. In fact, the iPhone 15 Series is well worth the money.
The modest upgrades of the iPhone 14 compared to the iPhone 13 are the driving force for Apple to improve the iPhone 15. Therefore, next year, the iPhone 16 will definitely not be able to make a big "jump" in innovation.
According to speculation, the mid-range iPhone SE 4 will also be released this spring, bringing the biggest design overhaul ever to the iPhone SE line. If you are considering buying a mid-range iPhone, the iPhone SE 4 with an expected design similar to the iPhone 14 will be a product worth waiting for.
