Don't Spend a Grand Before Reading This. iPhone 16 Pro vs. 15 Pro, 14 Pro, 13 Pro
The iPhone 16 Pro and 16 Pro Max launched in 2024. They have a slightly different design from the 2023 iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max, but in many ways remain very similar. Trying to figure out whether or not to get the iPhone 16 Pro can be less than straightforward. Should you upgrade from the 15 Pro? What about if you have an iPhone 14 Pro or even a 13 Pro? For starters, both the iPhone 16 Pro and 16 Pro Max have larger screens, with the smaller Pro getting a larger 6.3-inch display (up from 6.1 inches on the 15 Pro) and the Pro Max getting even bigger with a 6.9-inch display (up from last year's 6.7-inch display). Best Memorial Day Deals CNET's team of shopping experts have explored thousands of deals on everything from mattresses and TVs to everyday essentials and outdoor fun so you can shop the best Memorial Day deals in one place. See now The Pro model usually gets discontinued after a year while Apple keeps its base level iPhone on sale for two years after its initial launch. (Last year's iPhone 15 is now $100 less and the 2022 iPhone 14 is $599.) That doesn't mean you can't buy last year's iPhone 15 Pro — it's likely still in stock at physical stores while supplies last or available as a refurbished model — but the iPhone 16 Pro and 16 Pro Max will otherwise displace 2023's iPhone Pro phones. Of course, it's worth noting that the rumored iPhone 17 Pro will likely launch in just a matter of months. So it might make sense holding off on buying a new phone if you can.

James Martin/CNET The 16 Pro now has an identical camera to its corresponding Pro Max model, whereas typically the Pro Max would get a smaller enhancement. This includes a 5x optical zoom, which wasn't available on last year's 15 Pro (it had a 3x telephoto lens) but was on the 15 Pro Max. All of the iPhone 16 devices, including the base and Plus models, get a new Camera Control button that provides quick access to photo and video modes. The iPhone 16 Pro has access to various AI features from Apple Intelligence, including a Visual Intelligence feature, which uses the camera and AI to identify objects and places around you. While the iPhone 15 Pro will also gain access to some of these features, the iPhone 14 Pro and earlier Pro models will not. These features will also include note summarization, an enhanced Siri assistant and Genmoji, a method of generating new emoji using a prompt.

James Martin/CNET Apart from AI-enabled hardware, iPhone 16 Pro also shares features with the iPhone 15 Pro that aren't available on the iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro. Those premium iPhones have a titanium finish introduced last year, which helps make the phones lighter than most earlier models despite their larger screen size. Both the 15 Pro and 16 Pro have USB-C ports with USB 3.0 data speeds instead of Lightning connectors with USB 2.0 data speeds, and both can record spatial video, which is a type of 3D video that you can watch on the Apple Vision Pro headset. An always-on display, Dynamic Island camera cutout and satellite connectivity for Emergency SOS are features available across all of these Pro models apart from the iPhone 13 Pro. Should you buy an iPhone 16 Pro? In recent years, upgrading year over year typically offers small differences. If you have an iPhone 12 Pro or older, we believe upgrading to an iPhone 16 Pro makes a lot of sense. If you have an iPhone 13 Pro and the battery health is still good, it'd makes sense to wait another year to upgrade. And if you have an iPhone 14 Pro or 15 Pro, there's no need to buy an iPhone 16 Pro right now.
