iPhone 16 Pro Review: 1 Year Later - This is Peak "Pro" ➥ Take your personal data back with Incogni! Use code BUTCH at the link below and get 60% off an annual plan: https://incogni.com/butch Apple released the iPhone 16 Pro almost one year ago. It was "built from the ground up for Apple Intelligence" but if you bought it for that, you're likely disappointed. However, the phone itself, unreleased software aside, is arguably the best Pro phone Apple has ever made. And it's really not close. So in this (almost) one-year-later review, we discuss the Apple Intelligence woes, the display, design, cameras, battery life and health, why people are losing faith in Apple, and more. Enjoy!
