Beyond its hardware upgrades, the iPhone 16’s changes to Photographic Styles in the Camera and Photos apps is perhaps one of the largest. And having now tried all of them out, it might be my favorite change of any Apple’s made to the iPhone this year — and yet another reason why it's on the list of the best camera phones.
Photographic Styles was originally a feature introduced on the iPhone 13 series with four adjustable presets. But now there are 14 to pick from, all still adjustable, with the option to create your own preset based on your favorite photos. That's a lot of possible customization to think about when you're shooting your images, so it's just as well you can switch between these styles at any time in the Photos app in iOS 18, iPadOS 18 or macOS Sequoia.
