Anyone else go from iPhone 11 to 16 Pro… Big upgrade?

I know this isn’t the usual place for this, but I saw this post and had to chime in. It feels amazing upgrading! I did it on impulse, and they didn’t have any Pro models, but I went from an SE 2 to a 16 Plus. What a jump!

As long as it’s good vibes, everyone can share their thoughts here.

@Vern
I know, right?! You don’t realize how much you’re missing until you finally upgrade. Feels totally worth it.

Years ago, I went from a 6s Plus, which felt top-tier at the time, but it started struggling with updates. I was broke, so I settled for an SE 2. It was faster, and I liked the smaller size. But now? No way I’d go back to a small phone. I could’ve gotten the regular 16, but I figured if I was upgrading, might as well go all in with the Plus. Only downside is pocket space, but it’s worth it for the screen. Also, my SE 2 screen was literally held together with clear tape, so you can imagine how much better this feels. And going from A13 to A18? Insane. I wasn’t even planning to upgrade, so I wasn’t up to date on all the new features. Definitely a huge deal for me since these phones cost a fortune.

Same here! Went from an 11 Pro to a 16 Pro! Love it :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

:raised_hands: Yay!

Got mine last October, and after three months, I’m still blown away. It’s so fast and makes life easier. I went with desert titanium instead of white—was unsure at first, but now I have zero regrets. I catch myself just staring at it sometimes because the color is so nice.

Meanwhile, I’m here with my white one… and I picked it on purpose :unamused:

@Zephyr
Nice choice!

@Zephyr
Looks awesome!

@Zephyr
That color is growing on me!

Got mine in November after using an XR for years. Went with the black 16 Pro, and I love it!

Your XR must’ve lasted you well. Enjoy the upgrade!

It really did! I passed it on to a family member, and it still had 83% battery after 6-7 years. But yeah, it was time for a change.

Nice pick! Enjoy!

Literally typing this on my iPhone 11 while my new 16 Pro is out for delivery. So excited!

That must’ve been a big jump! I upgraded from the base 12 to the 16 Pro, and it felt like a huge step up. First time owning a Pro model, and I love it!

How’s the battery life compared to the 11? I get about 4.5 hours of screen time on a full charge. Still trying to decide between the Pro and Pro Max.
