In late September, I upgraded to the iPhone 16 from my dependable iPhone 14 Pro. This was my first non-Pro phone and my first Plus-sized iPhone. I wanted a larger display than the usual 6.1-inch screen I've been using, and I didn't feel the need to go Pro.
However, I returned the iPhone 16 Plus after almost two months. My main problem with it was the size. The iPhone 16 Plus is too big. While I love the larger display, the phone is too thick for my taste. Also, the Camera Control wasn't as easy or comfortable to use as I thought it would be, and I didn't have access to any Apple Intelligence features. I still don't, as the EU has to wait a few more months to get Apple's AI.
I did start missing a few iPhone 16 Plus features as soon as I returned it. The display and battery life are the clear highlights. I also missed the ability to start the camera from any screen with the Camera Control button and the weight. I went back to the iPhone 14 Pro, which is heavier than the 16 Plus.
Fast-forward to late January, I decided to buy the iPhone 16 Pro Max. That might be strange, given that I had just given up the iPhone 16 Plus and blamed it mainly on the footprint. But I just realized that if I don't do it now, the chances are I'll never get my hands on a Pro Max flavor for daily use ever again.
