Which is better iPhone; 15 Pro Max or 16?

Ideally the iPhone 16 as it is the latest model and has the newest features such as a better chip, Apple Intelligence, improved battery life, new camera capabilities, as well as the new Camera Control. But again it’s up to you and how you intend to use the iPhone.

You can compare the features side by side here on Apple’s site ⇢

Note that Apple has discontinued the iPhone 15 Pro Max. They still sell the regular iPhone 15 and 15 Plus, but if you were hoping to purchase an unlocked iPhone 15 Pro Max from Apple, you’d probably need to buy it from the Certified Refurbished store.

If you insist on going from the most deluxe ("Pro Max") 15-series model to the entry-level 16-series model, there are going to be many downgrades: to the screen size, camera system, USB-C transfer speed, you name it.

Those wouldn't exist if you were doing an apples-to-apples comparison between the two generations of Pro Max models.

Below are the specifications for iPhone 15 Pro max and iPhone 16 Pro Max. Compare the specs and your usage habits to determine which iPhone is best for you.

Determining a Better iPhone:

How exactly would you define "better"? It is likely the one that meets your expectation. The latest version would have newer features. As for upgrading the iOS, I typically wait a week to do so, as the iOS cannot always be downgraded.
