Anyone upgraded from the standard iPhone 15 to iPhone 16, and experienced better battery life on the 16?

Contemplating between the 15 and 16 now.
Which iPhone model are you upgrading from? The price difference is not huge so I’d think you should just go for the newest iPhone 16 😃

Battery life for the standard 15 and 16 should be quite similar

yeah exactly. 99% of the supposed buyers are just resellers trying to lowball. Very rare to find a real and sincere buyer 🙃
Most of my dealings which are carry out in carousell, i can say, only 30% are trying to lowball. IMO, the situations are way better than before. 99% is a joke to me TBH but then, YMMV.

I was nvr lucky enough to experience as many as 7 out of 10 serious buyers.

Maybe the algorithm was not in my favour so legit buyers can’t see my listing.

Since I listed yesterday, total 18 ‘buyers’ reached out to my 15 Pro, 256GB (listing at $1050) with highest offer $900 and lowest $800

Upgrading from a Galaxy S10 that's due for an upgrade for some time. :s13:

The price difference appears to be around $170, but both models looks really similar but the battery life on 16 touted by Apple looks impressive.

It will be a significant upgrade if you switch to iP16. However, if price is a huge factor, you might want to consider iP13 which is going for only $702 for the 128GB on Shopee

I ran the i4.cn tool and found that my IP16PM panel serial number starts with G9P. Is that supposed to be a good panel model?

When I listed my IP15PM 512GB in Carousell for $1350, I also got a lowball offer of $800.

Looking at 15 minimally for the USB-C support, so that I can continue using my existing USB-C accessories.

I think the difference between 15 and 16 is really minimal. Maybe the colours can be a factor?. iP15 has lighter pastel colours and the iP16 has more vibrant colours hahaha provided you not going for the standard black/white options haha 🤣

You shouldn’t have, now your entire phone sensitive info, including s/n and etc are all backed up and kept a copy on their server.

Carousell lowballers are really low life. I rather sell to one of the shops at Toa Payoh than to Carousell losers.
