iPhone 16 Expected to Sustain Apple Sales Until Major Upgrades
It is no surprise to most Apple users that the iPhones have kept a similar look since the iPhone X. The camera design has stayed the same since the 2019 iPhone 11 designs as well.
It is no surprise to most Apple users that the iPhones have kept a similar look since the iPhone X. The camera design has stayed the same since the 2019 iPhone 11 designs as well. There have been some minor tweaks and redesigns on the subsequent iPhones, but overall, you might have a similar experience if you’re upgrading from a 2-3 year old model to the latest one.
According to Bloomberg, Apple's upcoming iPhone 16 lineup will maintain sales until more significant innovations arrive next year. The four models—iPhone 16, 16 Plus, 16 Pro, and 16 Pro Max—will feature minimal design changes, with a focus on Apple Intelligence, a new AI suite.
Non-Pro models will add an Action button, while Pro models may see slightly larger screens and new camera controls. Despite these updates, Apple isn't expecting a significant sales boost. Bigger changes are expected in 2025 with the launch of a new iPhone SE and a thinner, Air-style iPhone 17 model, potentially revitalizing the product line.
iPhone 16 predicted to “stabilize” Apple sales until major upgrades
Redditors are asking each other if they were to upgrade to the upcoming iPhone 16 models. But, a number of them state that they would stick to their iPhone 14 models as the two generation older phones might be able to do 90% of what the new ones are able to do. Newer models are less exciting nowadays.
Furthermore, those using an iPhone 13 Pro from 2021 state that their phone is still in good working order and might probably still be in good condition when the 16 comes out. The only concern for most is that the phones they’re using may degrade in battery life soon.
Additionally, reports state that the base models are doing worse than the pro models in lieu of their very basic features. It appears that the 16 pros will do better than the base models.
