Has anyone noticed? Apple joyos every single year. Last year they made it lighter, keeping battery life the same as the 14 Pro. Then they increase battery life but it gains weight again. So every year they can market a change.

The reason I got the 13 over the 13 Pro in 2021 was weight, that's the only reason. And I got the 15 Pro because it got lighter again. I'm not buying 200g iPhones.

Underrated upgrade is a new anti reflective coating on all the iPhone 16 pro lenses and one of the iPhone 16 lenses. I’m hoping like crazy this is Apple testing out something they can put on the next Vision Pro lenses to mitigate glare.

That’s impressive! Nice updates, but happy with my 15 Pro Max. The new color is nicer than in renders. I’m more impressed with the 16 and 16 Plus.
