On Monday Apple launched its new iPhone 16 which usually leads to people wondering if it is time to upgrade from their current iPhone that they are using. Back in the day when there were releases, I would always upgrade to the newest because there were significant changes that lead me to believe that I needed to have it. But over the last ten years I usually upgrade to the newest one every other released and not every time a new one is released. The main reasons for upgrading for me are usually a bigger screen size or a significant change to the camera that I would like to utilize. With this said there are changes to the camera in the iPhone 16 that may persuade you into upgrading. First there is a new Camera Control feature that works in portrait or landscape mode with a button located on the side of the phone. If you lightly press the button, it will show camera functions that you can choose from such as exposure, zoom, or focal lengths by swiping between the available options. The Camera Control also uses Apple’s Visual Intelligence that allows you to capture a photo of things around you like a flyer or restaurant and then uses the AI capability to search for it and give you more information about it. This feature is much like the Google Lens capabilities. The new phone also comes with a new 48MP fusion camera, 48MP ultra-wide camera and the same 5x optical zoom 12MP telephoto camera. The camera also allows for the user to capture 4K Dolby Visions videos at a frame rate up to 120fps and is also available with slo-mo videos as well. Below are some other features to research if you are thinking of upgrading to the new iPhone 16.
- Apple Intelligence
- Extended Battery Life
- New Charging Technology
- Larger Screen
- New Ceramic Shield
- New A18 Pro Chip
- Wi-Fi 7
