Ok but who want this piece of crap?
16 Pro = 15 Pro with a capture button and 5x zoom instead of 3x. 128GB base. What a joke!
Given that Apple was highlighting improvements over the 12 series, I'm gonna guess they aren't targeting 15 Pro owners with these.

This always seems to shock people but the vast majority of people do not upgrade yearly.

Out of interest I checked what my £1199 15 pro max would be worth on apple trade in. £570… less than half its value in a year. Has it really depreciated that much, Apple? Jokers

What are you talking about? The iPhone 16 is designed from the ground up. Tim Cook said so himself.

Well you were one of the very first people to click on a preorder article about it, so seems you are very interested in it. Which one are you ordering??
I have incentive to change every year but I’m seriously considering Samsung or Pixel for the first time. They offer more advanced technology for cheaper!
