    I decided to keep my 15 Pro Max. I will wait until the iPhone 17 Pro Max comes out next year.

      Wow that’s a long time to wait to upgrade. I think you should take advantage of your carrier’s deals to upgrade only because your XS might not be eligible for the trade in deals they usually offer

      @@CarsandTechInfoNo one that is money smart will actually trade their phone in. I’d argue by not buying a new phone for another year, he could put the money away he’d pay extra on the phone into a savings account and buy it with cash. Now he’ll have two unlocked phones.

    Had the 15 Pro and it only lasted until late afternoon. I got the 16 Pro Max and by the end of the day I have 30% battery without charging throughout the day

    I just wish we could get the brilliant colors on the pro models like they got on the standard models this year. That ultramarine blue is dope. I have the desert titanium and it looks pretty sharp, but that ultimate marine blue would absolutely pop on my new 16 Pro Max.

    @CNET I think a more useful comparison would be between the 16 Pro Max & the 13 Pro Max since people with that phone are most likely going to considering upgrading this year

    All that fancy video switching got me dizzy. Just put up a simple side by side specification chart. Also there was no mention of price and where is the best place to buy the 15 pro max.

    The new 16 pro max feels like a stop gap! It is definitely getting boring and apple should change the iPhone releases to something like once every two years… this “the fastest iPhone ever” every year is outdated now

    Have preordered a 16 Pro Max in Desert Titanium.
    I have a 15 Pro Max & a 13 Pro Max which are both issue free.

    I want 1 TB storage. I’ve never yet owned a gold iPhone. Plus the thinner bezels do look slick.
