You will never notice the difference in processor performance, maybe battery is a little better, but whether it's enough for a $200 difference is up to you. Lastly, there is LiDAR, if you use things like door detection, people detection and, from what I hear a new item, furniture detection, then of course the Pro is the way to go. If I weren't using that I'd most certainly buy a regular iPhone 16.

I have absolutely loved this iPhone XR. No devices perfect, and this one has its little issues from time to time, but it’s been an absolutely great phone, perfect size etc. After six years, I’m still using the original battery which is down down into the 80% tiles somewhere. It’s time to upgrade, although I’m not turning this in, because I won’t get anything for it. And I can still use it for things like playing books are barred books etc. So now the question becomes: pro or not pro? I’m totally not interested in massive screens, which means the promax and the plus are not for me. I expect I will go to a phone store and check out the 16 and the 16 pro, but it’s really all about whether it’s worth it to get the extra battery power The somewhat better chip performance although will that really help me as a blind person? And the better battery. I’m more interested in the contrast between the 16 and the 16 Pro. $200 a better chip and a better battery. But how much better? Anyway, for anybody who has already purchased one of the new devices, what do you think? I will never be sold on a promax, because it’s just too big. I have an iPad mini, and I don’t need another one. Smile. Mary Sent from my iPhone -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.
