Apple Inc. AAPL is all set to launch the highly awaited series of iPhone 16 this Monday - September 9 - through the most talked-about "Glowtime" event.
The launch of the most awaited series of iPhone is keeping tech lovers worldwide on their toes, with debates already rolling among consumers as to which variant would strike a balance: the regular iPhone 16 or its premium version, the iPhone 16 Pro.
While both models carry the latest chip from Apple, the Apple A18, the iPhone 16 Pro creates a set of remarkable advantages. For those who are determined to invest in a more professional phone, here are six valid reasons why the iPhone 16 Pro stands well above the rest.
1. Larger display
Besides that, one major difference among them would be in their respective screen sizes: the 6.3-inch screen display of the iPhone 16 Pro, while that of the Pro Max will be even bigger at 6.9 inches, in contrast to the 6.1-inch display of the iPhone 16.
This extra screen real estate is sure to impress those users who want to spend most of their time browsing, gaming, or binging multimedia content on their smartphones.
2. Advanced camera
The iPhone 16 Pro will be a favorite of photo enthusiasts: it boasts a new triple-camera setup that includes a 5x optical zoom telephoto lens and a 48MP ultra-wide camera. The regular iPhone 16 will only have a dual-camera setup. This will limit users to main and ultra-wide shots. The Pro has more versatile capabilities for casual and professional photographers, ensuring advanced camera capabilities that provide angles unimaginable by many.
The iPhone 16 Pro is finicky when it comes to design: the titanium frame is lighter and stronger than the aluminum frame used in the regular iPhone 16. It is because of the premium materials that the Pro models have a very sophisticated look and feel, which users looking for good looks and durability appreciate.
3. Premium build quality
The iPhone 16 Pro stands out for its design, featuring a titanium frame that is not only lighter but also more durable than the aluminum frame of the standard iPhone 16. The premium materials lend the Pro models a sophisticated look and feel, appealing to those who prioritize both aesthetics and durability.
4. The A18 Pro chip
The iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Pro would be fitted out with the same chip: Apple's A18. But the Pro does kick this performance notch up one degree, with an A18 Pro variant, supposed to pump up graphics performance and further improve energy efficiency.
This may make a difference for users relying on their phone for gaming or video editing and other power-hungry uses.
5. Improved battery life
Battery life remains one of the most important deciding factors for a user when it comes to a smartphone, and in this respect, the iPhone 16 Pro does not disappoint. According to leaks, the iPhone 16 Pro may sport a 3,577 mAh battery with an even larger 4,676 mAh battery on the Pro Max variant.
These upgrades will hopefully lead to much longer battery life for users, especially those on the go.
6. Exclusive color options
The iPhone 16 Pro will also reportedly offer some exclusive colour options, setting it further apart from the regular model. Rumours indicate the Pro series will add White, Black, Gold, and Gray to enhance its premium feel, while the iPhone 16 will offer Blue, Green, and Pink shades, in addition to standard Black and White.
With the release of the iPhone 16 series, it will mark another milestone for Apple while consumers anxiously wait to see which model fits their needs best. The time draws near for the "Glowtime" event, and as such, the choice between the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Pro may come down to a question of balance between budget and feature set.
Details will come in the official release, but based on what is reported today, the iPhone 16 Pro will have some big benefits if you are one who spends big dollars for Apple's best technology.
