Every year, Apple updates its entire line of smartphones with basic and flagship models, and sometimes releases intermediate versions. This raises a logical question: which smartphone should you choose from this variety? Let’s look at the basic and professional options and figure out which iPhone to buy in 2025.
Key Features
When choosing an iPhone, first and foremost, consider its technical specifications. The most important ones are:
- power and performance (depending on the chip);
- display size, matrix, and refresh rate;
- camera capabilities and additional processing;
- battery capacity and overall energy efficiency;
- internal storage capacity.
It is also important to evaluate the device’s price. An officially imported Apple iPhone in its basic version costs slightly less than the flagship models. Here, you will need to decide which features will be useful to you.
The Latest iPhone 16 Series
The iPhone 16 series is currently the most advanced. It includes five models with different sets of options — you are sure to find the perfect option among them.
Flagship Series
The iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max are the most powerful and efficient models. Both run on the A18 Pro processor, handle resource-intensive tasks, support multitasking, and feature Apple Intelligence. They also have a LiDAR scanner, which is responsible for augmented reality and 3D content.
The Pro line display supports ProMotion adaptive technology, which allows you to change the screen refresh rate up to 120 Hz. Brightness also adjusts to the surrounding environment — from 1 to 2000 nits.
| iPhone 16 Pro | iPhone 16 Pro Max | |
| Diagonal, inches | 6,3 | 6,9 |
| Storage capacity | 128, 256, 512 GB, 1 TB | 256, 512 GB, 1 TB |

| Weight, grams | 199 | 227 |
| Price | From 16 199 000 | From 19 799 000 |
As for the camera, there are three rear cameras: a Fusion and ultra-wide angle 48 MP, and a telephoto with 5x zoom. The neural network algorithms have been improved, allowing them to process images faster and more realistically.
Basic Line
The basic lineup of the 16th series in 2024 includes two smartphones: the traditional iPhone 16 and the slightly larger iPhone 16 Plus. Both models are equipped with an A18 Bionic processor, which supports standard options and works with artificial intelligence.

| Diagonal, inches | 6,1 | 6,7 |
| Storage capacity | 128, 256, 512 GB | |
| Standard brightness, nits | 1000 | |

| Weight, grams | 170 g | 199 g |

It is impossible to visually confuse these smartphones with the previous series due to the new camera layout, one below the other. The main lens supports Fusion technology and has 48 MP, while the ultra-wide-angle lens has 12 MP.
New Series in 2025
The iPhone 16e was released in February this year. It is a compact, budget version that supports Apple Intelligence. It has the same display matrix as previous versions, with a diagonal of 6.1 inches and a brightness of up to 1200 nits. Inside, it has a powerful A18 chip — the same as the older versions, but with four graphics cores instead of five.
The 48 MP camera takes high-quality photos and videos. Fusion technology, optical zoom, and stabilization improve the images. The iPhone 16e can play videos for up to 26 hours without recharging.
The iPhone 15 Series of 2023
In 2025, it will still be relevant to buy the iPhone 15, which was released in 2023. The company always builds sufficient power reserves into its devices. For technical reasons, the basic models in the series cannot work with artificial intelligence, but they cope well with multitasking and “heavy” applications.
| iPhone 15 | iPhone 15 Plus | |
| Diagonal, inches | 6,1 | 6,7 |
| Storage capacity | 128, 256, 512 GB | |
| Standard brightness, nits | 1000 | |
| Maximum brightness, nits | 2000 | |
| Screen frequency | 60 Hz | |
| Video playback, hour | Up to 20 | Up to 26 |
| Weight, grams | 171 g | 201 g |
| Price | From 10 699 000 | From 12 499 000 |
The iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus feature an eye-friendly Super Retina XDR display and a powerful A16 Bionic processor. The camera system includes a 48MP main lens and a 12MP ultra-wide lens. The optical stabilization and zoom system allow you to take clear, rich photos in any lighting conditions.
Conclusion
When choosing the latest iPhone in 2025, focus on your main tasks. If you need top-of-the-line features and maximum capabilities, go for the Pro models from the latest lineup. For everyday tasks, the basic versions from previous years will suffice. But if you are interested in artificial intelligence-based features, take a closer look at the 16th series.
