Did you get an iPhone 16?

Not the souped up models, the base 16. What do you think? I want to upgrade my iPhone XS.

Get a iphone 13 pretty much the same thing.

I got the iPhone 16 Pro. It’s exactly like the iPhone 14 Pro except that it has a USB C connector instead of a lightning connector, so I had to buy new earbuds and an adapter for my car.

I wasn’t planning on upgrading yet my iPhone 13 mini, but then I saw the pink iPhone 16. It’s absolutely gorgeous. And yes I love pink!

I’m still waiting for my 8+ to die.

I got it. Kind of spur of the moment because I absolutely hate my Samsung Galaxy and been waiting to go back to an iphone for a while. I know it's got lots of snazzy features but I haven't figured them out yet

Beware! There was a recent DL thread: OP returned iPhone b/c s/he was disappointed in the shade of pink.

I did get the souped-up model, i.e., the Pro Max. Since you haven't gotten many responses, I'll chime in.

My old phone is an iPhone 6S, yes, 6S. It still works (with one battery replacement a year or so ago).

Anyway, so far:

1. Battery life may have issues. I noticed it myself and went online to find out it's an issue.

2. Some of my music didn't transfer from my old phone to my new phone. I think you have to pay for Apple Music ($7 per month or so) in order to get sync function. SAD.

3. I didn't upgrade the storage. I went with the base, which is 500 GB or so. That's enough for me.

4. Yes, you need to get new cables or adapters because the port is USB-C, not lightning.

I got it on day 1. But I did get the souped up model.

r7 the base 16 pro max comes with 256 gb. r5 odd I did the opposite and switched to a Galaxy s24. Just the base model but love it so much more than my iPhone. The camera is so much better and the simple fact I can make ringtones out of mp3s by just assigning them is so easy.

People who needlessly update their phone are killing the planet
