iPhone 16
The standard iPhone 16 is the sweet spot for most people who want iOS without paying Pro money.
Read the product overview
It shares the strong A18 chip, adds the handy Camera Control button, and delivers the same dependable software support, while skipping the telephoto lens and high-refresh display. If you do not zoom often and can live with a 60Hz screen, it gives you nearly all the everyday iPhone experience for a few hundred dollars less, making it the easiest mainstream recommendation in the lineup.

How we assess prices
We use in-stock offers checked within 72 hours. Scores compare the current offer with that retailer’s observations from the last 90 days, requiring at least 14 observed days and a price from about 30 days ago. Suspect records withhold the score. Retailer conditions and prices can change.
