I tell my friends that the new iPhone 16 is coming and they all say the same thing, “What’s so new about it?” I heard an editor question whether the new phone was even worth being called the iPhone 15s, a reference to the iPhone 6s days when Apple would update internal parts bi-annually without changing the look of the iPhone. My only response is: can’t you see the new button? What more do you want?!
You think it’s just a button? Sure, the camera hasn’t changed much. It can’t take infrared photos or x-ray through walls. It doesn’t record holograms that you can have R2-D2 playback when you find Ben Kenobi. In fact, Apple’s camera software options are pretty simple compared to Samsung and Google, and the new button doesn’t catch up to the competition's pro controls.
