Part of me wishes I went with it over whatever this black titanium is called but I'm happy either way.

 

Honestly, the standard iPhone comes out of this looking even better at that price point.

 

The 2 tb pro max is $2000

 

lol

 

That 5G mmwave antenna had to go somewhere

 

I hate that there’s no black pro model. None of the colours really do anything for me. Also the placement of the Apple logo on the back looks ridiculous with clear MagSafe cases now lol

 

Just paid off my OG ultra should I get the black ultra 3?

 

gimme your og

 

Actually if shea gets an ultra upgrade I’ll do it too

 

The MagSafe battery back returning but only for the Air is peak lol

 

$898

 

Ok why you bald though

 

The new sleep score stuff is only on the new watches. right?

 

Series 6 up.

 

I love the absurdity of the Exactograph face.

 

Yikes choosing a watch band is much harder than I expected! I think I’m going black silicone solo loop, and I’ll eventually get the braided.

For the watch, I’ll be going S11 natural titanium with cellular, 46mm

edit: actually, probably going with the green band because the black ships later and I have the patience of a child

 

No black on the Pro is wild. No world where I can rock that organge, just not for me at all. Blue is close to the Midnight I had on the 15 Pro I guess (That was my most noticeably scratched casing). Would go back to white but the hands on, it looks a bit meh.

 

I'm actually very unimpressed with the band colors these days. I do need a new black sport band, though, so I'll probably order one of those.

 

Just tell me the camera is better and battery is better and I’m sold. Don’t even need specs. That being said I’m locked into this 16 pro max for 2 years. Will probably upgrade to the ultra 3 though

 

I'm very tempted to just keep my 14 Pro too. It's almost paid off. The battery kinda sucks now, but I could get that fixed. I just don't feel the same pull to need a new phone as I used to.

 

How bad is your battery? I've had mine for six months, capacity is still 100%, it lasts me so long compared to my 15 Pro.

And in iOS 26 the adaptive battery feature is really good, I've gone out and never once had to attach a battery when before it would be a struggle.

 

Here's my takes:

iPhone Air is now the best looking iPhone
iPhone 17 Pro looks too Apple Watch Ultra inspired

 

Also a potentially hot take: the best looking iPhone is the worst one to buy

 

I saw this take from one of the guys behind Halide on Threads:

The Air allows Apple to make the Pro what it really should be - thicker, more battery life, chock full of features. There's a reason why it has those colors.

Apple is really trying to drive people to the Air with it having the traditionally "Pro" colors.
