The iPhone 16 is here – but is it worth the hype?

Apple has once again shown off its latest creation: the iPhone 16 series . With even better performance, groundbreaking camera technology and more, it's no surprise that the hype is high in the tech world. But despite all the new technology, the question is whether you really need to upgrade to the latest – or whether there are smarter choices for both you and the environment.

What's new with iPhone 16?

The new iPhone 16 series comes, as expected, with several improvements. But for many it feels like deja vu – some of the biggest news is about optimizations of existing features rather than any major, groundbreaking changes.

That said, here are some of the updates being introduced:

  • Improved camera technology: iPhone 16 introduces the new Camera Control feature – a convenient button that makes it easier to quickly capture moments on the go. In addition, the phone is equipped with a 48MP Fusion Camera for even sharper photos, as well as support for Spatial capture for more vivid and realistic videos.
  • New A18 and A18 Pro Silicon Chip: Taking a major leap forward, iPhone 16 features the powerful A18 chip, a two-generation leap in performance. This chip not only enables faster handling of demanding apps and games, but also supports Apple's new Apple Intelligence.
  • Apple Intelligence: Delivers enhanced AI and machine learning that can help you write, express yourself, and get things done effortlessly.
  • Longer battery life: Thanks to a larger, more powerful battery, combined with improved energy-efficient processes, iPhone 16 offers the longest battery life ever for an iPhone – perfect for users who are always on the go.

Despite all this impressive news, it's important to ask yourself: Is an upgrade really necessary?

Used – a smarter choice for both you and the environment

It's tempting to always have the latest, but in a time where both economy and the environment are in focus, it may be wise to consider other options. A used iPhone that is 1-3 years old can still deliver at a top level, and most of the time you won't notice any difference in everyday use between a new and a used model.

Why choose a used iPhone?

Environmentally friendly: Every used mobile phone purchased means less demand for new products and therefore fewer resources are used. This helps reduce e-waste and carbon emissions.

Economical: With a used phone, you get the same Apple quality at a significantly lower price. Models like the iPhone 14 or iPhone 15 still have powerful cameras, fast processors, and long battery life – all at a fraction of the cost of what an iPhone 16 will cost you.

Longevity: Apple still offers long-lasting updates for its older phones, meaning an iPhone that's two or three years old can feel just as modern as today's models.

But if you still want the latest without breaking the budget, there are more options to consider.
