Regardless of the price cut, the buyers are still divided on whether the pretty old iPhone 16 is economical or not in comparison with the recently launched iPhone 17, new Android flagships, and so on in 2025.
The iPhone 16 still has strong performance and features analogous to its age, but it is a little behind in one aspect. These plus points are something that the buyer has to verify before coming to a conclusion about whether to purchase or not.
The Top Reasons to Consider the iPhone 16 in December 2025
1. High-end performance
The iPhone 16 is powered by Apple’s 3nm A18 Bionic chip, and it still maintains its speed which is the highest in the market even after one year of its introduction. The device can perfectly play graphics-heavy games like Call of Duty Mobile and BGMI with no lag and no heating-up resulting in its performance being on a par with many of the latest Android devices during the day.
2. Reliable battery life
The gadget is supported by a 3,561mAh battery, which can last a day on full usage in case the user is not too demanding, tasks like gaming are also included. Although its 25W charging is slow compared to some Android rivals, Apple's change to USB Type-C and the same as MagSafe make it a user-friendly solution
3. Solid camera system
iPhone 16’s dual-camera setup with a 48MP main sensor and a 12MP ultrawide lens can be relied upon by the content creators. The setup gives birth to photos and videos whose quality can be compared easily with the social media, and the 12MP front camera does a good job on selfies. But, there is no specialized for zoom lens.
Primary Limitation: Old Display The 6.1-inch OLED display of the iPhone 16 runs at 60Hz, which is quite a limitation in 2025 when nearly all smartphones, even the ones in the middle range, have at least 120Hz or more refresh rates. The iPhone 17 also does this and more, so even if the colors still impress with their brightness and correctness, scrolling and animations are not as smooth as on the new devices.
The iPhone 16, with its reduced price, has become a very attractive choice for those with a limited budget who prefer to have good performance, battery, and cameras first. Nevertheless, less demanding users may see the slow refresh rate of the display as a dealbreaker.
