iPhone 16 Pro

The sweet spot of the iPhone 16 lineup. You get the same A18 Pro chip and 5x zoom camera as the Pro Max, but in a size that actually fits in your pocket. The 6.3-inch display is the perfect middle ground — big enough for media, small enough for one-handed use. Camera Control button is surprisingly intuitive once you get used to it. Apple Intelligence makes Siri less embarrassing. The only reason to go Pro Max over this is battery life and screen size. For most people, this is the one.
