iPhone 16 Pro review: the ultimate Goldilocks phone
The smaller of Apple’s two pro models is no longer subject to a lesser camera array. It does everything the Max does in a smaller form, and that is likely to suit some users better. The new larger 6.3-inch screen looks incredible and there’s all the power you’ll ever need.- Larger display, 5x zoom option on camera, Longer battery life
- Still less battery life than the Pro Max, Camera Control function not for everyone
Apple iPhone 16 Pro reviewed: handheld powerhouse
This little beauty is a handheld powerhouse. It’s exactly what normal-sized phones have needed: an equal. They almost never are. The sheer excellence of the iPhone 16 Pro cannot be understated. With the exception of the battery life, this is a brilliant handset and easy to recommend.- Excellent design and build, Top notch performance, Impressive camera system with marvellous macro, Slightly less expensive than last year, Water resistant
- Battery life could be a little better, We're not sure why there's a 128GB model anymore
iPhone 16 Pro Reviews: 'Iterative' Upgrades… For Now
The first reviews of the iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max were shared today by select media outlets and YouTube channels, ahead of the devices launching on Friday. Also check out our iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus review roundup .
Apple iPhone 16 Pro
While I am yet to be sold on Apple Intelligence, the iPhone 16 Pro is still a very good iPhone with upgrades in most of the right places. It shouldn’t interest those who plumped for the iPhone 15 Pro, but if you’re coming from an older device this ticks all the right boxes.- Great size, The camera is certainly capable of greatness, Good battery life, No exclusive features in Pro Max model
- Apple Intelligence yet to wow, Meagre starting storage, Camera Control can be tough to master
Apple iPhone 16 Pro review: pocket-sized brilliance and no concessions
The Apple iPhone 16 Pro is one of the best iPhones Apple has ever made, and if the 16 Pro Max is too big for your tastes then it's the best new iPhone for you, and deserves a spot atop our 'Best phones' list. The screen is slightly larger and still lovely.- Slightly larger and heavier but still compact size, Camera Control button for instant camera access, A18 Pro, Apple Intelligence
- Apple Intelligence leaves you wanting more, Half the storage it should have, Not the sharpest screen in its class
iPhone 16 Pro Review: A Little Bit More Fun
The iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max certainly bring improvements -- but just how many, and is it worth the update?- Same sleek design, Camera Control is cool!, Excellent-quality photos, Top-tier performance, Stunning screen
- Expensive, Pro Max is huge
The iPhone 16 Pro is now my gold standard for phone photography
Apple's iPhone 16 Pro line features a few notable upgrades over last year's iPhone 15 Pro, including a dedicated camera button, a new A18 Pro chip, a bigger screen, and several AI-powered Apple Intelligence features.- The Camera Control button is great, The A18 Pro is powerful, It still features the best phone display
- Apple Intelligence's features are delayed, Nearly identical to the iPhone 15, Camer Control button can be finicky
Apple iPhone 16 Pro Review: Incomplete
Apple's iPhone 16 Pro is a great phone, being held back by the lack of advertised features. Namely Apple Intelligence which isn't on the phone millions of people are buying for at least another month.- Improved battery life, Improved charging speed (Wired and Wireless), Larger, but still compact, Exact same camera as Pro Max, this year
- No Apple Inteligence features at launch, yet Apple is advertising them every few seconds, Battery life isn't quite as good as the iPhone 16 Pro Max
Apple iPhone 16 Pro review: The full experience…eventually
The iPhone 16 Pro is the best compact flagship phone you can buy, avoiding the battery life issues that affect the Pixel 9 Pro. However, the headlining AI features are disappointingly unavailable right now, and other bugbears like slow charging remain.- Stellar performance, Superb, compact display, Excellent cameras, Strong battery life
- Apple Intelligence not available at launch, Fiddly Camera Control button, Charging still slow
Apple iPhone 16 Pro: A Great Phone, Minus the AI
The iPhone 16 Pro and 16 Pro Max are Apple's new flagship smartphones , at least until September 2025. On the outside, hardly anything has changed: The design and display remain identical to their predecessors, and there are also few to no changes in terms of colors and titanium as a material.- High-quality workmanship with more robust material, Improved camera, especially at night, Noticeably longer battery life, Camera Control button is really fun, Powerful A18 Pro chipset
- No major changes compared to the iPhone 15 Pro, No Glowtime without Apple Intelligence
