the iPhone 16 pro is the absolute WORST phone in apple's history. it is BAD. like, incredibly TERRIBLE. it doesn't connect to wifi. it bricks constantly. the UX is horrendous. and the worst part is, i somehow lost the box and can't return it 😩 🚫 i don't agree with a chamath on a lot of things, but he is spot on in this review. do not buy this phone. https://youtu.be/dUPDsuSvcKQ?si=EPNd3VxHHMUDpmNS

i actually thought it was one of the best upgrades coming from a 13 pro max I've had since owning iphones

are you referring to the software or the hardware? bc i think a lot of the issues are specific to the 16 from what i’m reading online.

the software has been a tiny bit buggy but overall it's still been an exceptional product

ok that gives me hope bc i am stuck with this phone now that i lost the box. my main concern is the wifi issue. i still have my old phone and was able to connect that quickly to hotel wifi and the new phone struggled and never connected. just kept flickering.

hmmm i don't think i've had any wifi issues related to the phone itself, can you get a replacement at all?

if you google it it’s a VERY common problem since they launched the phone. many such cases. i suspect related to the new wifi 7 standard they implemented into the 16.
