I just upgraded to the 16 from the 12 and honestly I'm not feeling much different. The Dynamic Island and usbc are both cool but I'm looking more forward to the ai stuff in iOS 18.1.
been using android flagship all my life, must upgrade every 3 year. 2021 decided to switch to iphone, almost 4 year later theres no reason to upgrade, i feel like my iphone 12 can go for another 2 year... even 3
@@matthews-tech I use the 12 mini and it can support voice memo transcription (the iOS 18 feature that I know I will use the most).

@@nova57380 Well. It is getting a bit sluggish now, especially with iOS 18. And future iOS updates will just slow it down even more. Also. iOS 20 will most likely be the last major iOS update for it, and that is only two years away.
I've had my iPhone 12 Mini since it was finally released during the pandemic. The battery is finally starting to go, and so forth. Good little phone and if the 16 Pro Max feels like a regular 12 then I am okay with that.
I had the iphone 12 for awhile and it was giving me problems on a daily basis and as of the 27th of September I traded it in towards the iPhone 16 which is by far better than my old iPhone 12.
Those upgrades don't justify an upgrade. If they'd put a 120hz panel, made the display bigger and given a greater optical zoom range and a bigger battery while keeping the price low that would have been wonderful
@@HimathyyyWhat I mentioned those are not pro features, people have been belived and manipulated into thinking they are. Just think for a sec. 120hz, zoom, bigger display, these are just some basic features of a phone. Check on the android side of things. People need to ask for more, they needvv to get out of the apple bubble and see what they are missing on a 500 to 700 USD phone.
My battery is getting weaker by the day. Having to charge my 12 2-3 times a day. So looking for an upgrade. The question is, should I go for the 16 or 15?
I had an 11 Pro back in 2022 and I sold to buy two Galaxies S20 FE 5G at the time (amazing phones, btw). Now I'm back to the iphone world with an iPhone 12 and I must say thenphone is great! The only thing I wish was better here is the battery... I feel like I have 1 less hour of screen time cllpared to the S20 FE I had, and they were both released in 2020. Do you guys think the iPhone 12 will be receiving the ios 20? (Just to have an idea on how long I'll be able to keep it)
12pro user prolly gonna go to 16pro max.... i got 128gb thats been filled up for the past year, 77% battery and i take a lot of pics so def want that battery and camera upgrade

I think the iPhone 12 should get Apple Intelligence. I don’t know why Apple is not giving the iPhone 12 Apple Intelligence. It’s capable of handling the software.
what compatitive gamer will play on a 60hz ? the screen it's really holding down the whole power of this device and with that screen the raw power it's pointless just some numbers in benchmarks
me neither and i m not complaining about, it's not worth it for me, the progress it's on android devices right now, apple it's just selling the same phone for years only improving tiny bit for a higher price
@cristianJoker2512 I have an iPhone, and I can say, I really miss having freedom to side load apps from the internet, being able to emulate games, and having free access to things, cause many things are paid for on apple devices, otherwise, the iPhone serves me well

Apple just announced AI might not come with 18.1 and may come with 18.2-18.3 around march.

Just upgraded from 12 and it was so worth it
I’ve got a 12 and I’m upgrading to the 16 here in just a couple days. The 16 is a fairly good upgrade from what I have now.

you can play assassin’s creed mirage on iPhone 16 doe. .

Bro hows the battery

I upgrade about every 4 years. First iPhone was a 4s, then 8. I have a 12 now, but gonna be getting the 16.
I'm keeping my iPhone 12 i see no reason to upgrade
Yeah you can never go wrong with Saving, and waiting for a better upgrade if you see no benefit.

Still holding on with my iphone 12 mini with 84% battery health 😅
79% here lol
77% overheats internet barely works lmao worst iphone ive ever owned
78%
Same battery health here😂
75😂
Battery life is the biggest upgrade here. The iPhone 12 is pathetic in that respect.
Thanks for this. I'm coming from an iPhone 11 myself and it is great to see the changes.
What I was looking for as an iPhone 12 user
i 've upgraded my iphone 12 to the iphone 16 Pro (my first Pro version) and it's pretty cool and very grateful to use

Is iphone 16 cover fits to iphone 12????
No, they have dynamic button and camera control
@@Himathyyythose don't matter the only thing you would be getting is a hole in your case, the real stopping thing is it's literally different size.
No speaker test?

Yeah the 120 hz is something i was hoping for.
You can just upgrade to the 13 pro max and save some cash
It’s such a minor upgrade. The only time one should be upgrading is if their battery is depleted.

Im upgrading from a 12 to the 16 tomorrow. Im curious about the camera and the ai in future
Why people upgrade iPhone every year. I’m happy with 12 pro!
Do you know how to upload 4k video on RUclips?
Does anybody type with phone on the table? I've never done that. Drives me nuts when reviewers point it out.
super helpful video, thank you!
Same, will upgrade only after 120hz display in upcoming’s
The cameras looks a little more detailed. And the battery life is a lot better.
In terms of camera, iPhone 16 clearly winner too far the gap between this 2 phone

12pro user prolly gonna go to 16pro max.... i got 128gb thats been filled up for the past year, 77% battery and i take a lot of pics so def want that battery and camera upgrade
Finally a good review 🤘
Both 60hz gonna be similar inside or at the office. 12 is still a great phone. All the same specs(mag safe, oled, 5g, iOS 18)
I have the iPhone XR but I’ll be switching to samsung(the galaxy s22 plus) but great job on the video 🎉
Great decision 👏
Go for 23 plus
Dumb decision u gonna regret it atleast get the ultra or the iphone 13 pro max
iPhone 11&12 here
Subway suffers that game never got old
I have the 12, looks like I’ll be waiting for the 17
which iphone is closest to iphone 16 as a camera without spending €1000?
14 pro, about 700 euros
If there were 90 hz display I would have definitely upgraded to ip16 but it’s literally not worth in 2024 to carry a new phone with 60 hz
Only, if you are a gamer
@@galinageorgieva8554 so all iphone pro users are gamers ?

16 better

I am watching on my iPhone 12
I changed battery on my iPhone 12 and works like new, it lasts all dey no problem 👍🏼 (you dont need new 16)
12 is giving me major issues now.
