Other than a short stint as an iPhone 13 mini user, I&#8217;ve chosen the iPhone Pro option every year the company has offered one.<\/p>\n<p>And it wasn&#8217;t just for the iPhone. I also used to be the person that owned the MacBook Pro, Apple Watch Ultra (not technically Pro but you know what I mean), the AirPods Pro, the iPad Pro \u2014 if Apple slapped a Pro on the name, that was the one I was buying.<\/p>\n<aside data-block-type=\"embed\" data-render-type=\"fte\" data-skip=\"dealsy\" data-widget-type=\"seasonal\" class=\"hawk-base\"\/>\n<p>However, over the years, the regular versions of Apple&#8217;s products started to gain a lot of the features of the Pro versions. First came the 6th generation iPad mini, which won me over as a reading device. Then came the M2 MacBook Air, which pulled me away from my Intel MacBook Pro.<\/p>\n<p>Today, after announcing the <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.imore.com\/iphone\/iphone-16\/official-apple-unveils-iphone-16-which-is-designed-from-the-ground-up-for-apple-intelligence\" data-before-rewrite-localise=\"https:\/\/www.imore.com\/iphone\/iphone-16\/official-apple-unveils-iphone-16-which-is-designed-from-the-ground-up-for-apple-intelligence\">iPhone 16<\/a>, I think Apple is getting me to admit that I&#8217;m no longer what the company would consider a &#8220;Pro&#8221; user.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"i-apos-m-downgrading-in-name-only-3\">I&#8217;m downgrading in name only<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure inline-layout\" data-bordeaux-image-check=\"\">\n<div class=\"image-full-width-wrapper\">\n<div class=\"image-widthsetter\" style=\"max-width:1498px;\">\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:56.07%;\"><picture><source type=\"image\/webp\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/oaH5bsCUBH6wMMxxbk9QFR-320-80.png.webp 320w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/oaH5bsCUBH6wMMxxbk9QFR-480-80.png.webp 480w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/oaH5bsCUBH6wMMxxbk9QFR-650-80.png.webp 650w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/oaH5bsCUBH6wMMxxbk9QFR-970-80.png.webp 970w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/oaH5bsCUBH6wMMxxbk9QFR-1024-80.png.webp 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/oaH5bsCUBH6wMMxxbk9QFR-1200-80.png.webp 1200w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 1000px) 970px, calc(100vw - 40px)\"\/><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Glowtime 2024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/oaH5bsCUBH6wMMxxbk9QFR-320-80.png 320w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/oaH5bsCUBH6wMMxxbk9QFR-480-80.png 480w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/oaH5bsCUBH6wMMxxbk9QFR-650-80.png 650w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/oaH5bsCUBH6wMMxxbk9QFR-970-80.png 970w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/oaH5bsCUBH6wMMxxbk9QFR-1024-80.png 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/oaH5bsCUBH6wMMxxbk9QFR-1200-80.png 1200w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 1000px) 970px, calc(100vw - 40px)\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/oaH5bsCUBH6wMMxxbk9QFR.png\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/oaH5bsCUBH6wMMxxbk9QFR.png\"\/><\/picture><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption itemprop=\"caption description\" class=\" inline-layout\"><span class=\"credit\" itemprop=\"copyrightHolder\">(Image credit: Apple)<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>After seeing all of the features announced with the iPhone 16 \u2014 Apple Intelligence, the Camera Capture button, the Action Button, and the camera features \u2014 I realized that the features offered in the iPhone 16 Pro like Pro Motion, the Always On display, and the even more insane camera features weren&#8217;t things I would actually use or feel justified in spending the extra $200.<\/p>\n<p>The iPhone 16 is great. I actually prefer how Aluminum holds up to smudges to Titanium as my <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.imore.com\/iphone\/iphone-15\/iphone-15-pro-review\" data-before-rewrite-localise=\"https:\/\/www.imore.com\/iphone\/iphone-15\/iphone-15-pro-review\">iPhone 15 Pro<\/a> has gotten smudgy all over the sides. The regular iPhone is also smaller and lighter, two things I appreciate having loved the iPhone 13 mini. I&#8217;m also not a photographer or videographer who is ever going to come close to using the features that the <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.imore.com\/iphone\/iphone-16\/apples-iphone-16-pro-is-here\" data-before-rewrite-localise=\"https:\/\/www.imore.com\/iphone\/iphone-16\/apples-iphone-16-pro-is-here\">iPhone 16 Pro<\/a> camera system packs in.<\/p>\n<p>So, while I plan to downgrade in name and features, switching from a Pro iPhone to a regular iPhone is actually going to feel like a bit of an upgrade to me. I&#8217;ll save money and get a phone that is better tailored for what I use it for. I&#8217;ll also feel less anxious about smashing it to bits since it is slightly less premium.<\/p>\n<div id=\"slice-container-newsletterForm-articleInbodyContent-s9ujdW9huRjGKWgF3DNz3L\" class=\"slice-container newsletter-inbodyContent-slice newsletterForm-articleInbodyContent-s9ujdW9huRjGKWgF3DNz3L slice-container-newsletterForm\">\n<div data-hydrate=\"true\" class=\"newsletter-form__wrapper newsletter-form__wrapper--inbodyContent\">\n<div class=\"newsletter-form__container\">\n<section class=\"newsletter-form__top-bar\"\/>\n<section class=\"newsletter-form__main-section\">\n<p class=\"newsletter-form__strapline\">iMore offers spot-on advice and guidance from our team of experts, with decades of Apple device experience to lean on.

While Apple did come out with <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.imore.com\/airpods\/apple-announces-brand-new-airpods-4-and-theyre-more-like-the-pros-than-ever\" data-before-rewrite-localise=\"https:\/\/www.imore.com\/airpods\/apple-announces-brand-new-airpods-4-and-theyre-more-like-the-pros-than-ever\">AirPods 4<\/a> and bring noise cancellation to the regular earbuds, it appears that the noise cancellation on the AirPods Pro 2 are still much better. As someone who uses my AirPods Pro 2 on the plane to cut out engine noise (and boy are they good at it), I think I&#8217;ll stick with them for now.<\/p>\n<p>Other than that, however, I think it&#8217;s time to admit that I&#8217;m no longer a Pro user, and that&#8217;s just fine.<\/p>\n<p><em>We&#8217;re covering all the Apple iPhone 16 event announcements live as they happen.
