Its undeniable that the 16 series brings some new changes: a larger screen, a higher pixel density, more powerful performance. These upgrades are attractive for users who are looking for the ultimate experience. For example, the screen size has increased from 6.1 inches to 6.9 inches, providing a wider view, and making watching videos and playing games even more enjoyable. Imagine yourself sitting on the couch, watching movies on a screen that's close to 7 inches, that immersive feeling, just thinking about it is so cool, right?
But the question is, do we really need such a big screen? After all, the bigger the screen, the heavier the phone, and the more inconvenient it is to carry around. Some netizens complained that The current phone is almost as big as half a tablet, its too heavy to put in the pocket! A larger screen also means higher power consumption, are you ready to carry a power bank with you? Image source: Internet
Besides the screen, the camera has also become a focal point of competition for major phone manufacturers. The 16 series' "four-in-one 48-megapixel ultra-wide-angle lens" is undoubtedly one of the highlights of this release. What does 48-megapixel mean? Simply put, it means that the photos can be zoomed in and zoomed in again, and the details are still clearly visible. For photography lovers, this is undoubtedly a huge temptation.
But here comes the question again, do we really need such a high pixel density? For most people, the main use of phone photography is for daily recording, posting on social media, sharing life, and in these scenarios, the improvement brought by high pixel density is not obvious. Moreover, high pixel density also means larger photo size, and your phone storage will be running out of space. Image source: Internet
For some people, smartphones have long transcended the category of tools and become more like a symbol of identity. New models represent the latest technology, the most fashionable aesthetic, and also represent a "cutting-edge" attitude. But does "trend" equal "suitable"? The starting price of 7999 yuan [approximately $1150] is not a small amount for many students and office workers. It is better to choose a phone with a higher price-performance ratio instead of eating dirt to chase the "latest model" and spend the money on something more worthwhile. Image source: Internet
I also want to remind everyone to consume rationally and don't blindly follow the trend. New phones are indeed tempting, but don't burden yourself with unnecessary financial burden just for the sake of "face". What do you think of the new model? Share your thoughts in the comment section.
