Apple's iPhone 16 series is here, and I'm massively underwhelmed. As a photographer and content creator, there is nothing new about the iPhone 16 Pro or Pro Max models in terms of camera specs that could convince me to buy one. In fact – you'd have to pay me to ditch my current Samsung camera phone and opt for an iPhone 16 Pro instead.
It's no secret that I'm the resident Android fan on Creative Bloq, and while I don't particularly like Apple products, I'm not unreasonable either (I'm typing on a MacBook Pro as we speak). I'm open-minded when it comes to tech, but it seems like Apple might be in a tech crisis right now, and I just don't think it can compete with the latest camera phone models like the Google Pixel 9 series or the Honor 200 Pro (which is endorsed by Rankin).
