This is what people really want from the iPhone 16

With the release of the iPhone 16 next month, SellCell surveyed more than 2,000 prospective buyers about the features they most want to see in this new doodad. To absolutely no one’s surprise, affordability is the biggest wish among those surveyed, coming in at 30.9%.

That said, the iPhone actually hasn’t gotten that much more expensive. When the first model launched in 2007, it debuted at $499. That’s roughly $750 in 2024 when accounting for inflation. The most recent iPhone started at $799, so while it has gotten more expensive, the increase isn’t as stark as it seems.

Following pricing, 26.8% of those surveyed want better thermals. It’s easy for an iPhone to overheat; just try charging it in the sunlight, especially on a hot summer day. With the increased focus on gaming on the iPhone, handheld devices need the ability to keep things cool even when your game heats up.
