Which iPhone is the best for me?

Which iPhone you should buy depends on what you're going to use it for. iPhone 16 Pro (Max) is the fastest, has the best cameras, and the best screen. If you don't necessarily need a zoom lens and Always On screen, the iPhone 16 (Plus) is an excellent choice. Older models have less extensive functions, but also cost less. We'll help you choose the best iPhone for you.

Which iPhone suits you?

iPhone 16 Pro (Max): best cameras and screen

Best Apple iPhone 16 Pro Max

The iPhone 16 Pro and the larger 16 Pro Max are the best iPhone devices at this time. You always take sharp photos from up close and when you zoom in, and when it's bright or dark. The ProMotion display refreshes 120 times per second, so your iPhone feels super fast. Thanks to the new chip, the device is also very fast. With the same new buttons as the iPhone 16, you can quickly take a photo or open your favorite app by pressing just 1 button.

iPhone 16 (Plus): super fast, with extra buttons

With the iPhone 16, you can use the most demanding apps and games without slowdowns thanks to the new processor. With the Action button, you can open Apple Music or put your iPhone in 'Do Not Disturb' mode with 1 click. The Capture button is completely new. This lets you quickly open the camera. You can then use the button to focus and take photos. This means you don't have to tap on your screen anymore, so your photos become less blurry.

iPhone 15 (Plus) and iPhone 15 Pro (Max)

Apple iPhone 15 Pro (Max): zoom in up to 5 times without losing quality

Within the iPhone 15 series, there's an extra difference between the Pro and Pro Max. This is a first. With the previous series, the screen size was the only difference. The Pro has a 6.1-inch screen and the Pro Max has a 6.7-inch screen. This year, the zoom lens on the Pro Max is also better. You can zoom in up to 5 times without losing quality. With the Pro models, you can only zoom in 3 times.

Apple iPhone 15 (Plus): extra zoom option for less quality loss

The Apple iPhone 15 and 15 Plus are available in 5 colors this year: black, blue, yellow, green, and pink. The iPhone 15 (Plus) has 2 cameras on the back. For example, you can use the wide-angle lens to take photos of vast landscapes. The iPhone 15 (Plus) also has a new zoom option, which allows you to zoom in 2 times with less quality loss compared to the basic models of the previous iPhone series.

Dynamic Island works seamlessly with iOS 16, so you also see your notifications there. Thanks to the 48-megapixel standard lens, all your photos and videos are very detailed, even in low light. The battery life of both devices has been improved with 1 hour, compared to the iPhone 13 Pro and 13 Pro Max.

Apple iPhone 14 (Plus): new Plus version, larger camera sensors

In addition to the 6.1-inch iPhone 14, the larger 6.7-inch iPhone 14 Plus is also available. That's useful when you watch a lot of movies and series. The devices have the same functions, but the battery life of the Plus version is 6 hours longer. The camera sensors are larger compared to the iPhone 13 (Mini).

Apple has kept the device affordable thanks to the classic design with bezels and the home button. You unlock the device with Touch ID. In addition, the iPhone SE 3 has a 4.7-inch LCD screen that's a lot more affordable than the OLED screen that its big brothers have.

iPhone 11 and 11 Pro

iPhone 11 Pro Midnight Green

iPhone 11 Pro (Max): 3 cameras

The Apple iPhone 11 Pro and 11 Pro Max are the eye-catchers of the 2019 iPhone models. These are the first devices with 3 cameras. They have a 12-megapixel wide-angle lens, an ultra wide-angle lens, and a telephoto lens. With the ultra wide-angle lens, you can capture up to 4x more in a photo or video.

iPhone Xs and iPhone Xs Max

Apple iPhone Xs Gold

Apple iPhone Xs: powerful iPhone with a dual camera

There isn't a task the A12 Bionic chip can't handle. Like the iPhone X, the Apple iPhone Xs has a new bezel-less design. You unlock it with Face ID, which works slightly faster than the Face ID on the iPhone X. The Apple iPhone Xs has a 5.8-inch OLED Super Retina display and you can take the most beautiful photos with the dual camera. A new function in portrait mode is that you can now adjust the depth of field yourself, even after taking a photo. This way, photos taken in portrait mode will look even more professional.

Apple iPhone Xs Max Silver

Apple iPhone Xs Max: large screen and dual camera

Did the iPhone Xs get you excited, but do you prefer a larger size? That's possible! Instead of a 5.8-inch display, the Apple iPhone Xs Max has a 6.5-inch OLED Super Retina display. This is the largest screen in iPhone history. It's ideal if you love to watch movies and series on your iPhone or if you regularly edit photos and videos on your device. Worried that the iPhone Xs Max is too big? The iPhone Xs Max is about as large as the iPhone 8 Plus, which has a 5.5 inch screen. How is that possible, you ask? The bezels are more narrow, so a phone of the same size can have a larger screen.

iPhone Xr and iPhone X

Apple iPhone Xr Yellow

Apple iPhone Xr: iPhone with the best battery life

Apple announced the iPhone Xs and the Apple iPhone Xr at the same time. Is the latest OLED Super Retina display not a must for you? In that case, the iPhone Xr is a good choice for you. Despite the fact that the iPhone Xr doesn't have a dual camera, the photos are almost as nice as those you take with the iPhone Xs. That's because the iPhone Xr also has a portrait mode and you can adjust the depth of field yourself. Want to know what stands out the most about this iPhone?

Apple iPhone X Silver

Apple iPhone X: first iPhone with bezel-less design

The Apple iPhone X was the first iPhone with a completely new design. For example, the iPhone has an edge-to-edge screen with rounded off corners and lacks a home button. That means this phone isn't secured with Touch ID, but you use Face ID to unlock your phone. The iPhone X is also the first iPhone with an OLED screen. This screen displays beautiful contrasts and the brightest colors. In addition, you can now take portrait photos with the front and rear cameras.
