As reported by the Express, the iPhone 16 Pro doesn't skimp on battery life, providing up to 27 hours of video playback. Its impressive 48MP Fusion camera comes with an Ultra Wide lens and shoots videos in 4K 120 fps Dolby Vision.
The smartphone is powered by an A18 Pro chip, offering more speed and larger memory bandwidth, while Apple Intelligence helps you get tasks done quickly. Plus, the device comes with privacy protections, ensuring not even Apple can access your data.
For shoppers wanting to explore other smartphone options, the 256GB Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra is currently on sale for £1,099 or £30.53 a month. Available in several colours, the phone has a slightly larger 6.9-inch display and comes with a handy S-Pen and features Galaxy AI.
Amazon is currently offering a 22% discount on the Google Pixel 9, slashing its price from £899 to £699. This gadget boasts a 6.3-inch display, comes in four colours, and features Google AI. There are no reviews for the Apple iPhone 16 Pro on Sky's website, but over at Amazon, where it costs £899, the device has scored an overall 4.4 out of five stars.
One delighted shopper shared their thoughts: "The iPhone 16 Pro has been a great upgrade option for me, combining a sleek design and built for the new Apple Intelligence features due to be released. The first thing I did notice is the new display - it feels crisp and vibrant.
"The improved refresh rate makes everything from scrolling to gaming feel incredibly smooth. Performance-wise, the new A18 chip delivers decent speeds, effortlessly handling multitasking and demanding apps - gaming on my iPhone feels a lot smoother, and the phone itself just feels a lot faster compared to my old iPhone 13 Pro Max.
"The battery life has also seen a decent boost, easily lasting a full day even with heavy use - I often have my phone on low power mode, and still runs decently and the battery has lasted way over 24 hours despite using it often. The camera system, always a standout feature for the Pro models, has been further refined.
"The improved low-light performance is actually insane to be honest, and along with the new AI-enhanced photography tools, it allows for stunning photos and videos in any condition. The new camera button on the iPhone 16 Pro is actually incredibly useful, and it can be customised to open various apps - it felt a little weird at first and the button felt in the way, but I got used to it after a day or so."
However, they did mention a minor drawback: "The only downside is that the outer black titanium case feels plasticky oddly - I think it feels rather cheap, but I have my phone in a Spigen hybrid case, so it doesn't bother me that much. Overall, the iPhone 16 Pro is a powerhouse device that pushes the boundaries of what a smartphone can do - I highly recommend it."
Unfortunately, one Amazon shopper was left disappointed, stating: "I wouldn't recommend getting this phone for solely two reasons. The battery life is horrible and so disappointing. I upgraded because my iPhone 13 battery was dying. After spending £1,099 I expected the battery to at least last a day. In reality, I had to charge it twice a day with minimum usage. Literally my phone could be sitting idle and the battery was running out. It is not worth the upgrade."
However, another purchaser rated the iPhone 16 Pro five stars and commented: "This phone is probably one of the greatest from the Apple line. The design is so great and the colour is outstanding, the functionality is great and the strong outer casing feels nice in the hands. The battery life is great and lasts for hours on end and the best thing is it's light weight.
"The value for money is great because of its features, with the new camera button you can become a professional and take amazing stunning photographs. The 48-megapixel camera shows its potential in all areas, and photos come out at a professional level. The 120 hz display is so good and feels smooth when using."
