Apple iPhone 16 review: Almost pro

The iPhone 16 looks just like the iPhone 15 from last year , but that’s a good thing.

The A18 chip is the biggest improvement for a long time.

The Action Button is a cool addition and one that should prove helpful for many users.

While the iPhone 16 is formulaic, the formula is working, and it's still producing amongst the best in the business.

The iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus have the same good-looking screen, but still no ProMotion Not updated for the standard iPhone this year is the display.

The new Camera Control button is a physical button that will still depress and click even when the phone is off.

It’s too far up along the body of the phone to be reachable with a finger curved around the corner.

The iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus have essentially the same camera specs as on the iPhone 15.

They offer a 48 -megapixel primary camera with an f/1.6 aperture and sensor-shift optical image stabilization, along with a 12- megapixel ultrawide camera with a f/2.2 aperture.

The base A18 has hardware-accelerated ray-tracing, a feature previously only found on the A17 Pro .
