Apple iPhone 16 Plus

The Apple iPhone 16 Plus is this year's large vanilla iPhone alternative, offering a bigger size similar to the Pro Max without the high-end features. This phone has a few upgrades, including a new chipset, ultra-wide camera with autofocus, action key, and camera shutter key. Design-wise, it's familiar territory with a flat Corning Glass back and aluminum frame, although the camera bump is now more elegant and vertical like other iPhones. The device has IP68 water resistance to a depth of 6 meters. The display remains the same as last year, a 6.7-inch OLED screen with a 60Hz refresh rate, which may not be as smooth as higher-end iPhones. However, it still offers support for HDR10 and Dolby Vision video. Performance-wise, the Apple A18 chipset provides significant improvements in both raw performance and power efficiency, with around 20% higher CPU scores and 30% or more improved graphics scores. The battery life is also excellent, with an active use score of 18 hours and 49 minutes, beating even the Pro Max. Cameras are decent, with a 48-megapixel main camera and a new 12-megapixel ultra-wide camera with autofocus. Daylight photos from the main cam are excellent, while night shots have some limitations. The ultra-wide camera produces decent shots with plenty of detail, but limited sharpness and dynamic range. Overall, the iPhone 16 Plus is worth considering if you need a larger size without all the high-end features. However, it might not be worth upgrading if you already own last year's model.
