iPhone 16 Unboxing & First Impressions! In this video, we look at the base model iPhone 16 and give you my first impressions of the base! Share your thoughts, questions, comments, and what you want to see going forward!
@@minik2jff997 phone has lost about 15% of full capacity in just 2 years? they really make you to change your phone that way so you buy a new one. I know I had an iphone, after 3 years it was barely usable with the original battery, was like 72%. I see them as money making corporation, while samsung and other brands stay a bit more honest towards their customers
The base model iPhones this year are far more feature rich and capable than previous years and irrespective of 60 Hz for the majority of people it's the one to get, in teal.
Two years ago I had to get the 14 Pro because PWM was not as bad as the regular model so I had little eye strain as a result. Would like a regular 16 Plus as I I don’t use the pro features. Just curious what PWM is like?
Totally agree with you about the pink color this year. I am not into it. Last year was the perfect pink. So sad that they got rid of it. Fingers crossed I bring it back for the 17.
@@InsighterofTech To really see the difference just download a high performance like WZM game for both phones and see which performs better in frame rates and visuals. The 16 would have a massive noticeable difference.
That is bad if you don't have a tablet, but if you do, then just game on your tablet. I think iPhones are not made for gaming but for just general use.
@@_Dan_693 But bro ok 60 hz but samsung who has the 120 hz that don’t feel 120 because of cpu the iphone 16 is better so the cpu is a monster so he is more smooth than ur phone
I still dont get why apple is not provided atleast a 90HZ display why they are sticking to 60HZ it sucks man * and yeah battery cannot be an excuse for that ..,
I bough a base 15 a month ago, couldnt be happier 60 hz isnt a big deal for me since i went from a nearly 5yr old realme android that started to be really laggy and yes idc about apple inteligence i dont need it in my opition is trash and im not spending a couple hundred more dollars just for 2 new buttons and different camera ☠️. Gonna keep my 15 for atleast 5-6 years.
@@BabeiIlie oh yeah tell me how it sucks then or how 16 dont i bet u dont have a 15 so u cant tell me imagine paying a couple more hundred dollars just for 2 buttons and inteligence while most ppl will try it and dont use anymore without that the 16 is the same same back glass not better camera at all and yeah i forgot 60hz😂😭🙏☠️
I upgrade every year and this is the first year I’m not going with the Pro or Pro Max. I’m done paying the Apple tax for features I don’t need when the regular iPhone has 90% of what the Pros have.
£799 in the UK, no added taxes. Taxes are probably included in the £799 price tag . It's the same price as the Samsung S24 and Google Pixel 9 entry level model . I love the blue 💙 colour. 60hz is a bit poor for a phone at that price point. Personally I'm not bothered about screen refresh rate , but I know some people will be .
Be careful don’t drop it, they don’t seem to stand up too well, get yourself AppleCare and a case you’re going to need them both, unless you can return the phone on the 14 day returns policy
I don't understand? why base models should be different on the back every year so people know what model you hold, but on pro models the same design, why!?
Well I want to see video iPhone 15 pro vs iPhone 16 regular. Since in my carrier provider price different is 20 eur . I believe 15 pro should be a lot better on cameras and display
@@nickackermanchannel I think the macro video is a lot more useful than the button itself. That is the part of your video that I thought "oh that's nice".
60 Hz is not the main con. The unacceptable 128 gb storage is. A phone that has 128 gb as base storage should not even be sold anywhere in the world let alone the US unless it has expandable memory!
@@thetechrealist it’s pretty much a 13s although the 6gb of ram vs 4gb makes a sizeable difference, not buying a new phone unless it’s 120hz so maybe the base 17 will be for me.

they look… different, why do these new iphones look like android phones i used to have? 😂
60hz, enough said
Watching on my iPhone 16 teal I upgraded from iPhone 11 and the difference is HUGE!!!!
@@ΣπύροςΑγάπιος 😂🐑🐑 60hz
I used my iphone 14 since day 1 with battery health of 85% and just switched to iPhone 16 pro max it’s been phenomenal upgrade
From a base model to a pro max model is always a phenomenal upgrade even if you would have switched from a base 16
@@musicianluca facts
My iPhone 13 is still at 100% battery health . It's done remarkably well for an iPhone. I'm a moderate user though

Happy birthday bro 🎈🎉

Happy iPhone day bro
Happy Birthday bro 🎉
It could be my eyes playing tricks on me, but the 60hz screen looks smoother than before.
The 16 Plus is beautiful in Black or Teal
The base iphone 16 128gb starts at 1200usd in Croatia, while the pro max 256gb version costs more than 1800usd...
In the the UK the base model is £800.
Same as in South Africa
in canada, the base starts 128gb starts at 999cad, and the promax 256gb is 1799. the pro max 1tb is almost 2400.
The "ultramarine" blue iPhone 16 looks simply gorgeous! I'm thinking of updating from the iPhone 14.

Fantastic video Nick ❤
Great video!
Glad you enjoyed it
Awesome unboxing Nick, and the aquamarine colour looks absolutely gorgeous, the base model iPhones always get the exciting colours.
I love how close we see the phones
Got mine yesterday in black 128gb and I love it 😊
@@250piccadilly9 How is it a month later?

I hope they go back diagonal in a few years
@@miamora01that won't work with spatial video. I believe the 17 will have a horizontal camera bar similar to the pixel 9
first 😀, love your channel , you are the best
Still rocking my 14 pro max not getting rid of it still feels modern with Dynamic Island
I mean it is modern
Please do iPhone 12 vs iPhone 16 speed test!
Obviously the 16 would do better but most of these speed test aren’t true speed test
@@Mike-HFeven though 16 would smoke it you don’t notice it in real life. You only notice the big battery life jump and the screen

First❤ very informative video as always nick
the 16 the 15 and the pixel 9 ... look insaaaaaaaaane
I will buy that for my Christmas present on 12-25-2024
60 hz in 2024 💀
and 128gb first
iphone 13 mini:
60 hz display
128 gb starting storage
Why you mad over a iPhone the average person keep their old iPhone longer or most people still buying older iPhones

Nick you are the best bro🔥
Is it purple or blue?
I’d say more purple
Wow, it's beautiful. The color is nice. 💙💙
Im thinking switching from 15 pro max back to standard. Tried 16 in Apple Store and so light and easy to hold… Am I mad?
I still dont get why apple is not provided atleast a 90HZ display why they are sticking to 60HZ it sucks man * and yeah battery cannot be an excuse for that ..,
They treat it like a lower class phone now yet it’s far too expensive
they should have the metal cased battery in the 16P and minimum 80 Hz
great video
Probably the most chill tech RUclipsr I watch
Got the plus💯💙 color definitely drew my attention, paid 140 and got it paid off 🙏👀😎
Reminds me of a Google Pixel, Nick 😂 cheers 🇬🇧
hey nicik can you make a video about base model s20 after 4 years of use??
I traded my S20 for an S22
I am on the 11 still it’s working just fine. It does need a new battery though, but five years on one battery not too bad.
do you think it's worth it to turn from a 13 mini to a 16 ?
3 year difference seems reasonable especially if you actually need it. Otherwise no 😂
@@ianwest1624 I need more battery and more storage and if I replace my phone now apple can value it 230€ so I’d get the 16 (256gb) for 889€
I own 13mini too with 85% health… i would like to wait for iphone 17 that will be the sweet spot to go …also will finally bring 120hz ltpo display
@@Esormi1243 you could get your battery replaced instead
@@ianwest1624 yeah i like the form factor very much
I also got the same model and color for this year!
I wish I had gotten this in ultramarine instead of teal
people will buy this beacuse of these beautiful color
Most people into a lot of cute phone cases some people will go for White or Black and not this color
Put a case on and that color is gone lol
That's that pretty pixel 8 pro blue color. Stands out a lot!
I’m right with my 14 pm it’s amazing and still rocking Dynamic Island

Best feature about this phone is the colour
I love this phone so much
Looking forward to iPhone 16 vs iPhone 15 pro
Sounds fun
Beautiful color
How are cases going to work on this in respect to the capture button?
Been waiting for nicks video 🥹
I currently have the iPhone SE 2020, and my plan is to upgrade to the iPhone 16. It sounds like an amazing phone.
Wait for the SE4, it might drop in this year’s October Event
There is no doubt that, compared to what Samsung is currently offering, this phone is vastly overpriced.
It’s really not, apart from 120 hz it’s a way better deal, and people that aren’t into tech care less for something like 120 hz
@@promo2099 shhhhh, stop yappping , it is overpriced
Hello Nick. Would you consider a good upgrade the 16 Plus coming from a 14 Plus? (Specifically for battery life)
iPhone 16 vs 15👍🏼👍🏼
So so lovely 😊
I upgrade every year and this is the first year I’m not going with the Pro or Pro Max. I’m done paying the Apple tax for features I don’t need when the regular iPhone has 90% of what the Pros have.
Exactly I have the iPhone 16 plus.
Next year they will include thin bezels in the regular models and call it new feature
I'm thinking of getting this coming from an A34
Bring speed test
Camera test please😊
i woudlve gotten this if it had 120hz and started at 256gb. Instead i got a s24+ with 500gb for $600.
Iphone 16 vs s24?
Nick me too when I just unboxed my new iPhone 16 pro max cycle count was at 1 😅 but I think it’s about apple factory
I need that 15 vs 16 pro max video ion which one to get I got the 13 pro max btw
Camera design looked better on 15.
How so?
Nah
best ultramarine ever
My 13PM is still going strong looks and feels new!
Same with my iPhone 13. Plus it's still rocking 100% battery health, which is quite remarkable for an iPhone 😊

bought same exact model yet mine is pale light blue almost white
Sir, please provide a video of Nothing Phone 2a vs Motorola Edge 50 neo, your comparison is the best.
Very curious that out of the box the iPhone 16 has 2 cycles already... hmmm... I wonder what that's about.
i also have the same after opening the box !
It’s 2024 and Apple still uses 60Hz screens on iPhone 16 base models, what a shame
i remember when a charging brick and headphones would come with iphones
Should i buy 15 or 16??
Wait until 17 😂
If u want right now go for 16 apple wont give newer features to vanilla 15
I'm second because everyone is first 😂
Nick please install the aida64 and tell us what battery capacity is on iphone 16....at gsm arena still nothing
0:30 i think the color is blue… not purple
I am the first one to comment. Let us onow when iphone folds😂🤣🤣🤣
I just got a 15 Plus 512gb for $900
I have a iPhone 16!
Note to self ~ 11:54
Be careful don’t drop it, they don’t seem to stand up too well, get yourself AppleCare and a case you’re going to need them both, unless you can return the phone on the 14 day returns policy
Some people actually have a firm grip on their phones…
@@thetechrealist not from what I’ve seen, what planet are you on, Apple makes a small fortune from screen replacements
Waiting for speed test
Speed test for iPhone 16☺
✌🏻👱🏻♂️✌🏻
Cool unboxing.
Still 60HZ like iphone 6
i would've "downgraded" to this if it had a 120hz screen lol.
4:55 i tried this and mine is too small lol
I don't understand? why base models should be different on the back every year so people know what model you hold, but on pro models the same design, why!?
I’m on iPhone 14 I need that
iPhone 15 pro is more recommended than iPhone 16 pro
Yesterday's tech for tomorrow's price!
Well I want to see video iPhone 15 pro vs iPhone 16 regular. Since in my carrier provider price different is 20 eur . I believe 15 pro should be a lot better on cameras and display
Only a mad man can pay those kind of chips for a 60hz phone in 2024, Apple is disrespectful
Wheres product red
I am dying to get it for my bday which is November 30th I HOPE I GET IT❤❤
60hz on 2024😢
16 no one advantage 15 pro….
Camera button

@@nickackermanchannel I think the macro video is a lot more useful than the button itself. That is the part of your video that I thought "oh that's nice".
