    neither, save your money buy something poggers instead

  2. @timothybarbarino3409 on October 26, 2024 at 10:12 pm

    I’ll be buying none of them – if Apple can’t, in good faith, make "Apple Devices" function as expected on windows, so I can move files from PC to iphone… fuck em… anti-competitive shit stains

    Almost 1000 € and got 60 Hz screen is a joke

  4. @gdboy1232 on October 26, 2024 at 10:16 pm

    I thinki iP16 is amazing but the 60hz only is bothering me.

  5. @ismaelsteezy28 on October 26, 2024 at 10:17 pm

    2:26 iphone 15 wont be getting Apple intelligence

  6. @Kridez23 on October 26, 2024 at 10:18 pm

    It’s not worth it

  7. @jcardenas48292 on October 26, 2024 at 10:24 pm

    🤖 at it again !

  8. @gercekciol on October 26, 2024 at 10:24 pm

    All iphone look same 🤦🏻‍♀️

  9. @ag.vlogs.official on October 26, 2024 at 10:25 pm

    Dear Team GSMARENA, Is the Moto G45 review on work?

  10. @mirmar121 on October 26, 2024 at 10:26 pm

    Why there isn’t an app of GSMArena on Apple store?? Can enyone help me, please?

  11. @Haarba-e4y on October 26, 2024 at 10:26 pm

    ofc, 15, same thing but a bit cheaper, ideally you should find 14 even and wait till applee actually makes something new, instead of mmm iphone 12ssss.

  12. @dolisarkar329 on October 26, 2024 at 10:28 pm

    Apple says: same same but different 😂
    Its price says: 16 is 80k inr and 15 is 61k inr

  13. @Bonethigsify on October 26, 2024 at 10:29 pm

    Worth buying, but not worth upgrading.

  14. @PsrUniqueYT on October 26, 2024 at 10:29 pm

    People in the world like to play games and for games good FPS and clock speed should be like 120hz. 60 ghz is no better than 120hz, so at least 120 ghz is needed.

  15. @MrOrtmeier on October 26, 2024 at 10:30 pm

    €100 is not considerably cheaper…..

  16. @marcoroverman1919 on October 26, 2024 at 10:31 pm

    iPhones need radical design changes. I hope the iPhone 17 series will start this. I will continue to use iPhone 14 Pro until the design changes

    Hello

  18. @paidimarryprithvirakshaksh8153 on October 26, 2024 at 10:32 pm

    without watching I can help you. Neither

  19. @user-ew8lt6yi2i on October 26, 2024 at 10:35 pm

    💩arena

  20. @madmann6723 on October 26, 2024 at 10:36 pm

    They could have at least done a 90hz panel if keeping a 120hz pro motion as a pro model feature.

  21. @jan3019 on October 26, 2024 at 10:41 pm

    For people that use their phone for social media like Facebook, X, YouTube, iPhone 11 is still a good choice lol but most people like the new version so just they can tell mine is the newly released iPhone.

  22. @BingChilling-hr1hh on October 26, 2024 at 10:41 pm

    16i want

  23. @sachinsudarshana3435 on October 26, 2024 at 10:46 pm

    you prefer features but have no enough money And you have an iphone 15 – stay with 15

    And you want to upgrade also you have enough money And you have an iphone 15 – go for 16

    And you are a person who want to experience better features but no much money – go for 15

    In my opinion🫠

  24. @rico4you on October 26, 2024 at 10:49 pm

    If any other manufacturer launched a phone with a 60hz screen in 2024 they would be automatically attacked! This is a joke to consumers!!!

  25. @robertllobrerajr. on October 26, 2024 at 10:50 pm

    I think if you are coming from an iphone with a lightning port, then it’s probably worth to upgrade to the iphone 16 despite its 60Hz display.

  26. @MonekPL on October 26, 2024 at 10:51 pm

    17>14>15>16

  27. @googlepresentdays on October 26, 2024 at 10:52 pm

    Bro, my iphone 13 ios18.1, If I change my apple account photo it’s update,, after when I back settings and again check apple account it’s going back old photo?
    How to solve this

  28. @pradidorai on October 26, 2024 at 10:52 pm

    As long there are fans supporting whatever Apple does. Apple will keep launching such mediocre products.

  29. @redabdab on October 26, 2024 at 10:52 pm

    I’ve just upgraded from iPhone 12 to iPhone 16. Is there a video showing what I need to know (what’s changed between them)?

  30. @Y2b82 on October 26, 2024 at 10:52 pm

    You have shared a wrong information, iphone 15 will not receive Apple Intelligence

  31. @FOTWC on October 26, 2024 at 10:53 pm

    I’m going to Samsung. Not that apple isn’t a good company but bc for my money Samsung offers so much.

  32. @FLM_OFF on October 26, 2024 at 10:55 pm

    I would get the 15 plus but it might have worse battery life than the 16 plus and it might have overheating issues. Also it won’t have ai.

  33. @77jamess on October 26, 2024 at 11:07 pm

    Neither of them. They both have a horrible OLED display with PWM, which can cause eye strain and a load of other unwanted health effects, unless your phone’s brightness is maxed out. They need to either make their OLED displays flicker free, or have an IPS LCD option.

  34. @FranklinNomad on October 26, 2024 at 11:07 pm

    60 hz display 😂

  35. @ELPCOTILLION-SD1970 on October 26, 2024 at 11:09 pm

    NEITHER…I Rather More Prefer ANDROID…
