But there’s a trade-off. In a subtle but notable omission, iFixit pointed out that the iPhone 16 lacks a millimeter-wave antenna, sacrificed to make space for the new Camera Control button. While it’s unlikely to be a dealbreaker, you might experience the occasional hiccup in your Wi-Fi connectivity.

DXOMARK has released its “Apple iPhone 16 Pro Max Camera Test” based on an analysis of 3,000 photos and 150 hours of video. The test measures the smartphone’s performance in photo, video, and zoom quality from an end-user perspective.

Good news for those itching to get the iPhone 16 Plus. Apple retains the same $899 starting cost as previous generations. Keeping the price the same means there’s more value in the iPhone 16 Plus given how there’s a narrower gap between this model and Apple's Pro phones.

Apple is raising the price of battery replacements for its new iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max phones to $119, up $20 from the current cost for the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max. The cost to replace an out-of-warranty battery on an entry-level iPhone 16 model will remain $99,
