I Kept My iPhone 16 Pro Max in 2026 — Here’s Why

It’s 2026, and I’m still using the iPhone 16 Pro Max.

With the iPhone 17 Pro Max out for a while now, I really had to ask myself a simple question: is upgrading actually worth it for how I use my phone? After comparing design, performance, camera, battery life, and the Apple ecosystem, I realized something — the iPhone 16 Pro Max still checks every box for me.

In this video, I break down:
• Why the iPhone 16 Pro Max still feels fast and reliable in 2026
• How the camera continues to fit perfectly into my creator workflow
• Why battery life hasn’t been an issue for my day-to-day use
• Why the Apple ecosystem matters more than yearly upgrades
• And why the iPhone 17 Pro Max wasn’t a significant enough upgrade for me

This isn’t about bashing new tech — it’s about making intentional upgrade decisions instead of chasing hype. Sometimes, keeping your phone is the smarter move.

If you’re debating whether to upgrade your iPhone in 2026, hopefully this video helps you decide what actually makes sense for your lifestyle.
