The test of the Apple iPhone 16 smartphone has joined our comparison

The qualities of the Apple iPhone 16 are indisputable. Of course, we may regret that Apple Intelligence is not available from launch, but it is only a matter of time before the service arrives here. For the rest, the smartphone has more than enough power for all uses, including demanding video games. It also benefits from notable improvements in photography and autonomy. However, if it is very good overall and its developments are welcome, this iPhone should not excite the crowds. Especially since for a model at this price, the pill of the screen still at 60 Hz goes badly. Still considering the price positioning, a telephoto photo module would not really be a luxury. However, when it comes to choosing, it's hard not to recommend the iPhone 16, especially if you are one of those who keep their smartphone for a long time. With the arrival of Apple Intelligence in the coming months, only the iPhone 15 Pro and 16 will actually benefit from the Apple brand's service. Under these conditions, purchasing a model incompatible with this technology would be counterproductive in the long term.

Alternatively

The Galaxy S24 Ultra brilliantly succeeds the Galaxy S23 Ultra, which itself had reached a technical milestone that its successor is undoubtedly refining. The smartphone combines strong points which undoubtedly earn it the term premium. In a case with discreet but pleasant refinements, the device has a very beautiful screen whose low sensitivity to reflections should be highlighted. It is powerful, equipped with a solid photo component, good autonomy – certainly, for a charge that deserves more speed -, all sprinkled with artificial intelligence, which still needs to mature. Add to that the promise of very long-lasting software updates and you have one of the best full-size smartphones.
